it feels like it's two generations behind. The sequel plays like a good xbox game but even so.

In terms of gameplay I thought the first felt like an xbox game but seeing as it was released on xbox 360, just one generation later, that wasn't so bad. Visually I quite like the art style but the lack of lip synching and stiff animations mean this isn't a game you play because it's pretty. I found the game played well both docked and in handheld mode so if you're worried about technical trouble I don't think that's an issue anymore. After roughly 15 to 16 hours I had zero crashes and zero framerate drops. In terms of technical issues I experienced none so I think the game has been patched and runs much better now than it did at launch. I think the narrative is a bit weaker and becomes a little convoluted at points but it has a solid ending which helps make up for that. The sequel manages to keep a lot of that charm. The characters were full of charm in a twin peaks way which I really appreciated.

I was a big fan of the first game and played through it twice. The characters were full of charm in a Deadly premonition 2 is a very odd game.
