Since I started this game I have not stopped playing...
just as in the last game you have the choice of accepting side quests to aid you while you play. these can give you experience and weapons that cold com in handy or if you can hold off the side quest till you complete the story.. THEY ALL LEVEL UP. so your level 50 siren can get all of her gear upgraded.
all in all the base story is a great follow up and the game itself is very aesthetically pleasing. the bright colors of the areas and the huge number of different style weapons you can get make this game different every time you play through its well worth a check out no matter what platform your on..
Once thing I will add to the end of this is that it is a LOT more fin when playing with at least one other person the monsters are tougher sure but the game itself is more satisfying when you blowing things apart with your buddy's
