This game is a brilliant piece of work and a very well written continuation of the first part. It is just beyond my understanding how some people have given it a negative review. If this game isn't good then I dont know what is. I feel the bad reviews are coming from people who have a special attachment to the first game which i totally understand since that was one hell of a game. This game however is much darker than the first one especially the story which may not be suitable and acceptable for some people. Play the game and see for yourself how good it is. It is hands down one of the best 'post apocalyptic' games ever created with graphics which will send shivers down your spine. I wish they release a third installment.
