i know the original was much lauded, but there seems to be no fuss around this one, which is not always a good sign, i didnt even realise it was out till steam announced it.
and being as im intrigued by co-op games, was wondering if anyone has an opinon/played it ?

Not yet, but very interested. There's a "wot I think" on Rock, Paper, Shotgun: Enter Formation in a few days so I'll wait and see what they say.

aah nice one
i tend to avoid mainstream "reviews" cos i dont know the angle theyre working, but RPS are sufficient

Ordered it form Zavi the other day for £17.95 did like the first one even with its many problems, looking forward to the co-op and create your own weapons. Just hope the character controls better than frank west, was like playing with a weebl at some points.

i got up to overtime on saturday. i absoloutely loved every second of it, but i must admit its a lot easier than the first one due to two words.

Boxing Gloves and Bowie Knife.

The combo weapon is so rediculously overpowered theres no need whatsoever to use anything else and with co-op you can nail any psycho in seconds just by rushing it.

That aside it was very relevent to all my twisted interests. I have it on xbox 360 if anyone would like to add my gamertag to plow through it.

Well I loved the first one, so my opinion's a little biased, but I'm loving the second one aswell, bloody good fun. Didn't understand peoples gripe with the first one what so ever.

what platform ?

im hearing

?

<im talking about PC version, dont do consoles>

 

[Billargh]

Isn't the PC/Ps3 version a port from the Xbox version? I'm talking about the Xbox version though.

playing it on the xbox atm, really enjoying it, think theyve made just the right improvements to the first one.

just trying to get through the story atm, should then have more time to explore in the other game modes.

Playing it on the PC and loving it. The controls are a lot smoother and I am finding it a lot easier to save people in this one, though I am only on Day 1. Played a bit of the multilayer and love it, haven't played co-op yet though people keep asking to join my game. May give it a try on my second play through. I like the idea that the cash earned in MP can be transferred to your SP game so I never need to worry about money and buying Zombrex for little Katey. Overall I would say its a very good port, with this SF4 and Devil May Cry 4 turning out so well I think all publishers should give their ports to Capcom to turn into PC games, they do a fine job.

Huge fan of the first game and this is just better in every way except for the edition of online play i personally feel that it should have remained a single player only game. Online achievements do my head in for a start people just fuckin quit when your about to win.

I wouldnt worry about money at all mate everytime you see an ATM smash it up or better yet use the Hacker weapon on one and the money poura out!!
