Okay, so I played the first one briefly, and loved it. It was an entirely new experience from any other game I've ever played. Now I normally play games like Uncharted, inFAMOUS, all on the PlayStation. So I'm an avid gamer of shooters and adventure games, but this game is defiantly an experience that does something every other game couldn't do, it relaxes. The graphics are superb, a few minor technicalities, but overall, the udnerwater seqeunces are amazing. The fish have so much life, the storyline is great, something the first one lacked. This game also has one new item that changes a lot of gameplay. That's the pulsar. Its a gun-type thing that heals sick fish, and scares off violent sharks and such. It adds a new sense of realism to the dangers of diving, and adds in excitement.
Pros: Amazing life in the ocean, huge environments, awesome fish, great storyline, amazing treasures, the pulsar is a nice touch. Greatly likable characters, simple controls. This game is a masterpiece, and excels at relaxation.
Cons: The camera is a pain in small spaces. Walking on land is a tiny bit odd.
Overall, this game is amazing. I will defiantly be buying it. Its a wonder of a game that's relaxing when you want it be, and a marvelous adventure when you feel like that. Its not for anyone, but like I said, I normally play upbeat, intensely fast-paced games on the PlayStation, and I LOVE this game. So if you like shooters or such, don't turn this game down instantly. And all the 1-star reviews are from sugar-addicts who got bored because they're not blowing off some cursing dudes face. Give it a try, hopefully you won't regret it.
