It still has that POP essence that keeps me addicted. Not as good as the original.
I like the fighting, at least its quicker with less respawning. That second weapon edition is VERY useful.
Pikmin 2 wasn't repetetive, as such, but only a month or so had I completed the original for the first time, so it seemed a bit too similar a bit too quickly. I'll go back to it one day, I just don't know when.
I'm dissapointed about how mainstream POP has gone.
Blood, dark look, rock soundtrack... even the great platforming sections are quicker to do because they've been shortened.
But it is still good fun, and I think they've really sorted the fighting system, I actually enjoy it (most of the time).
I'm playing POP2, Prime 2 and Four Swords all at the same time.
Prime 2 is pretty good actually, I'm more impressed than I was first time around.
Are you referring to POP2 or the first one?
