Loving this game. Started the new+ game today on the insane difficulty and it's...INSANE!! You definitely need all those power-ups you gathered to survive. The collectible side-missions becomes a bit of a bore later (except the lairs) though.As for the graphics, it's nothing to write home about but New York looks a lot better and more alive than the first game. Game play becomes repetitive in some way but it's a fun repetitive. Being a bad-ass never grows old. On a side note, don't play this on anything below normal.
