It definitely felt The original game was amazing and edgy, and the sequel manages to build on that style with a similarly head-scratching story and over-the-top strategic murder-fests that will tickle your retro bone. More levels, more weapons and more masks (personas) than before, and much to this gamers delight the benefits from the masks were actually varied and useful in their own way.
