I have to side with Schadenfreude that it's a sin not to play the first one because, as everyone else has mentioned, you've opted out of the experience of trying to inch through one of the most awful levels in all of gaming. I haven't played 2 and I have no doubt it is better but it's your sense of history that will suffer. Sorry that I did not present this argument before you decided.


Straight line walking? This is what we're arguing about? it was boring and stupid and the kid wouldn't die fast enough but it was too hard was a direction i didn't see coming. Are you against bullet time because it's too slow and time consuming he asks with a queer smirk?

It's not a straight line, it's a multi-level maze - the "maze" being a series of tightropes and "multi-level" as in "drop from this tightrope and land on this other tightrope". The PS2 version took me a few dozen tries; perhaps it is easier with a mouse and keyboard but the other comments suggest it isn't.
