i do agree with some people (i.e. people in youtube comment sections) that the acting can be a little painful and stiff at times, however i can easily look past that because of the nostalgia, and i thought characters like diaz, cash, and baxter were really cool when i was a kid. i do like that MC2 has more cinematics/videos than MC1, which just has a briefing video before each operation, as well as opening and closing cinematics.
