Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
This is a new system that has been added to the game, and it is present on the story mode, but sadly in it, it is secluded to your own progression through the story rather than giving the player the freedom to customize, and upgrade its own equipment.

This sequel improved the gameplay from the first one,adding new things and secrets to do.Also you get hooked until you find all secret guns and kill the final boss of the chapter.In every chapter you will get a different experience,like hacking and other things,also,meeting new characters.Also you can play a new mode named Rescue in multiplayer.

Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
It is satisfying, and enjoyable to see it, aesthetically the game sacrificed it's original art style for a more "modern" approach, they've renderised in a way a series of 3D sprites, i'm not sure how to describe it, but I personally don't resent its new "look" the game looks fine, and it also, controls well, even if the weapon system its terrible.
