Tried it myself, gameplay wise, I dig it. Still not a fan of the storyline, but I can't deny that it doesn't seem as annoying. Overall fun, maybe if I have some money and time to throw at this, I'll pick it up. They have some new optional online connectivity where you can share scores, items, in-game photos, and posts via facebook/twitter. Visually, the game is very nice. Still very impressive on that front.
