P.S: This also has more character because of things like marine chatter, and various objects which litter the world which amused me. It's well done, had lots of effort put in, and lives up to what might be expected, to me. Overall though, it's a worthy successor and one I'd recommend trying. Forget about Freeman particularly suffers for this, because it's similar enough in some areas to drag me down, but this isn't universal there or in any level.Ĭrowbar have at least tried, and the issue of my memories of those levels will likely go soon enough.
