I kind of admire that they went all the way with the 90s/early 00s clichés and stereotypes. I never played the first game, but I imagine this is basically a mix of The Faculty and Resident Evil. That being said, it's very monotonous and we shouldn't forget that the game was released in 2007 or even 2009 if you count the PSP version. We've seen this many times before done better and moved on by this point. I could see it being fun in co-op, but as a single player it's a very shallow, dated experience.
