They really didn't change that much, they simply took good old Crypto and put him in some new locations, gave him some new fantastic weapons, and some new & creative missions.
First the weapons: In addition to the electricity and disintegration guns from the original game you have things like a shooting disk that drags enemies (or vehicles) around, and "The Meteor Strike" (IMHO the finest weapon ever). There do seem to be a few weapons that either because you get them late in the game or because they have limited ammo really serve no purpose.
The missions are a bit more varied than the first game. There are story missions, optional missions, and Arkvoodle cult missions. The game's story locations include SoCal's "Bay city", England's capital "Albion", The island nation off the coast of China "Takoshima", a Russian town "Tungska", and "Solaris", a moon base. The Arkvoodle missions have some of the funniest material in the game. Essentially you are trying to convince groups to join your cult with a number of funny possible responses to their specific needs.
They also added a multiplayer aspect to the game. It is good, but you are tethered to your 2nd player rather than just each freely roaming. I do love that all of the game can be 2-player, not just particular missions.
Finally there are some negatives. First, I can't be sure, but I think this is the same engine as the first game. Nothing inherently bad with that (see&nbsp;<a data-hook="product-link-linked" class="a-link-normal" href="/Grand-Theft-Auto-3/dp/B00005YTYJ/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_rvw_txt?ie=UTF8">Grand Theft Auto 3</a>&nbsp;&<a data-hook="product-link-linked" class="a-link-normal" href="/GTA-Vice-City/dp/B0000696CZ/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_rvw_txt?ie=UTF8">GTA Vice City</a>), but with the same engine it is harder for this game to stand on its own.
Second: there are a lot of bugs in the game. Since it has an auto save, you can't really lose much of anything, but the game did freeze up on me during game play. Most of the bugs seem to be related to defeated enemies. For example someone dies on you and you are stuck in that place until the game works around that bug by launching you high into the air. That happened all the time. You will notice that most of these bugs do not stop game play or cause you to lose saved info the way other game's might.
Finally, and worst of all, the game is easy (also no difficulty settings). I may have failed a few missions due to getting shot to death or drowning (crypto can't swim), but you completely heal after 10-15 seconds of not getting shot. It is rather hard to die if you are even slightly careful. In a pinch you can use a mind control technique "Free love" where everyone will start to hippie dance and not notice you.
This game is quite literally the original game with new locations, weapons, & missions - not that there is anything wrong with that. DAH! was a great game. This game is the same essential game with more "stuff". Also for the record this game is hilarious. If you enjoyed the first game then pick this one up.
