I'm very familar with this series as I have played the first game as well. Really, this is a bargin bin shooter due to the games linearity, short campaign and voice acting that is so poor it's funny.

When the first game was released in 2006 many players gave it poor ratings because of the above mentioned facts. The voices were really funny especially Karls - the main charactor in the game but hey, that's not what makes a game it's just a small part of the puzzle.

US 2 takes place after the events of the first game at the very end of WWII in Germany. Karl now has a female side kick - a women from the first game to help him along in certain areas of the game. This makes the game more interesting as the original Uber Soldier you basically had cut scenes with her in them but no one helping you in the game.

This game to me was more interesting this time around. The levels are diverse taking place in locations like a underground compound or on a runaway train which is my favorite mission. The weapons are your standard WWII affair, MP 40, BAR, M 14, etc. with some super weapons thrown in like a flame thrower that will be familar to players of World at War.

The graphics are dated now since the game designers re-used the same engine from the last game though there are some new effects such as flames and explosions that heighten your gaming experience. Sound and voice acting still need some work but overall sounds better this time around. You still have the corny voices from the first game which is what turned off most players from this series to being with.

Lasting game appeal is low for Ubersoldier 2 because its a extremely linear ride on rails but the story plot and fact you have super powers such as a force field you can activate to ward of bullets along with other powers make this game worth playing. You can buy this cheap from Strategy First's online store at $20 if you have interest. The game campaign is short taking roughly about 4-6 hours to make it through the first time around but with the newly added multiplayer function you can play other players in modes such as Team - Death Match, CTF, etc.

If your looking for something to play to fill your time between major game releases and dont take these games too serious I recommend downloading this especially since its a cheap game to buy. For many people who played the first game and didn't like the voice acting and game play then I would pass because its really a rehash (remix) of the first game with different levels, a new story, weapons and some new graphical special effects. Good luck and happy gaming!
