    Every duel it fights, someone shows up to complain about the tone shift from the first game (not that they're wrong, exactly, just tired of hearing it). At this point I just vote and move on, but yes, it earned this spot.

    Que no lo mencionen tanto no significa que no envejeciera mal en varios tramos.

    mi primo y yo nos peleábamos por el mando cada fin de semana, buenos tiempos

    My older brother rented it one summer and refused to let me touch the controller for a week.

    Lo jugué siendo un crío y me marcó la infancia entera. Todavía recuerdo la sensación de que era un juego "de mayores".

    The tone shift people keep bringing up is exactly why it stands apart from something like Sunshine, which never really risked anything.

    Marqué, marqué, tout le monde dit ça mais moi j'ai relancé récemment et la nostalgie s'effondre en une heure de jeu.

    ¿De verdad seguimos defendiendo esto como un hito solo porque fue distinto? Cambiar de tono no es lo mismo que mejorar el juego.

    Pourquoi vouloir qu'il soit "mieux" alors qu'être différent, c'est justement ce qui lui donne sa place au classement ?
