First of all, I want to say, the original JP (which I still own the copy of, in it's original CD form), was the VERY first PC game I owned and played... I loved it so much!
Unfortunately, I wouldn't own a sequel until JP3 came out, and I had missed on on the 2nd one completely, so I had always wondered what JP2 was like.
I had borrowed it from a friend a while ago, and played through a small portion of it, but had never beaten it. The puzzles were far more challenging in this game than in the first, especially when I've played the first so many times I practically memorized it. (not that it's hard to do, JP1 probably lasted no more than 30-45 minutes in game length).
The game story, the puzzles and game play, and the historically informative Arthur were great additions, creating a fun and engaging atmosphere, coupled with great art, and more. I can say FOR SURE, that I'm proud to own this sucker!
Now, I'm saying it's a PERFECT game. The Gage Blackwood (Todd McCormick) of JP2, puts on a very contrived performance, and it seems pretty clear that they didn't have a very good budget this time around to get particularly good talent for the live-action actors. Then again, it doesn't really pull away too much of the charm that is The Journeyman Project, itself.
The moment I saw the newsletter e-mail talking about it, I knew I had to purchase it for myself. If you get a chance to play ANY of them, even JP3, I would at least give it some serious thought. They're ALL great adventure/puzzle games.
