I hated the first game. Probably played only half an hour of it. Not sure if if DR2 will be like case zero because in this one you get to keep your level when you wanna start a new game. I played the main story a couple of times and haven't died once like I did in DR. The save system is great as well, you have 3 slots to have different saved games and there is more places to save your game compared to the first one where you had to travel across the mall to save a game and only had one slot to do so. Overall Im really happy the way DR2 has turned out. I guess they really listened to the fans. I'm very pleased and with $5 you get more than 10 hours of gameplay with the help of achievements.
Bottom line worth every penny. You got nothing to lose because if you're unsure to buy it or not you can play the trial to see for yourself. Plus it's only $5 and it's certainly the best $5 I've ever spent.
