This game is such an enigma to me, because while I don't like playing with the original and this game has the better gameplay, the presentation and atmosphere gets lost with it's graphics.
Graphics

26 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
It used a dark, gritty art style that created an oppressive and uncomfortable atmosphere.
Co-op
Players who bring up Co-op mostly praise it.
20 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Co-op is pretty fun especially since it ties into the story, can be played solo with bots, and is more difficult to fit a 4 player party.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
17 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Gameplay is very fun though, i really love rampage mode and the OST they did for it!
Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.
16 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Combat flows more naturally and the pacing feels faster and more consistent.
Multiplayer
Players who bring up Multiplayer mostly praise it.
7 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Really fun, it's a short game even on the excess postage mode but there is multiplayer and rampage mode so I see my self playing more of this 9/10
