As someone who thought the original Blinx fell far short of its potential, I came into Blinx 2 with relatively low expectations. I was mainly hoping that the problems plaguing the first would be fixed here, leaving us with a top-flight game. Sadly, that has not fully happened. While quite a bit of progress has been made (like the addition of multi-player modes, multiple gameplay styles, and the ability to make your own character), a few things don't live up to their full potential. My prevailing thought...throughout the game was that it could be more than it is, which isn't to say that it's a bad game, as it's far better than the first Blinx, it's just not everything it could be.
