have only played the game a short time, being passed the swamp but still in Cordon. It seems like this game feels very familiar like the first one, down to the controls, etc. The graphics seem better in general and it feels like a prettier looking game. Daytime is actually cheerful in the swamp. However, dark means dark this time around. And that is cool. I kinda wish they had stealth meter this time around to show how much noise your making. The swap was super easy IMO. The npc soldiers did most of the work for me while i was exploring etc. Cordon however is definitly a step up. The military enemies in this area don't mess around. Tough armor and good shooting makes them tough to take. But its possible still. The armor and weapon upgrades is kinda cool, however I feel like i should save my money instead of upgrading my current weapon knowing I will probably get better very soon. This game definitly puts you in a whole different world, just like the first did and you love exploring it.
