This game was very good for a PSP game. This game was really fun. Great game, very good action, challenging to make you lose a few times but not enough to make you give up.
In the first game, you played as protagonist Nathan Hale, a soldier infected by the chimera, giving powers not available to him, such as regeneration, and being able to use Chimeran weapons. He became an unknown war hero for saving London. But, his downfall was his lack of personality, which made him hard to connect with, as he rarely talked. This has been fixed though.
You now play as James Grayson, a soldier vet who went AWOL when he was forced to kill his infected brother. He instead went around destroying countless Chimeran conversion centers. To people, he was a hero, but to the army, he was a traitor who deserted. His punishment was supposed to be death, until a woman known as Raine Bouchard offered him a deal to save his life by serving with her company, the Marquis. Since Nathan Hale destroyed a chimeran tower in London in the first game. Since Grayson single-handedly destroyed countless conversion centers, they wanted his help destroying the tower in Paris. They probably would've recruited Hale, but he went missing, presumed dead. Grayson went for it and served the Marquis.
Improvements have been made. The game now has a cover system, allowing you to actually have a chance went fighting multiple chimera. Plus, since Grayson can't regenerate health, multiple health power ups are given. Plus, new weapons by the chimera have now become man made, allowing Grayson to equip the all famous Chimeran weapon, the razor.
Unfortunatley, weapons aren't very accurate when you zoom, which is a problem when you need headshots on the new enemies, boilers.
Plus, the aiming system isn't incredibly great.
Ultimatley, it's a very good game. James Grayson has a great personality, or at leas a noticable personality. He's very grumpy and mean. Enjoy being him. Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!!
