A highly overrated game.

Highly praised as a sequel, this game is more of a ripoff expansion pack that has inferior level design to the original. There are no real differences from the first game, except for a single weapon and a new alien demon to shoot at. Wow, good job developers. What a dilemma : will I shoot at the alien, or will I run from the alien. That is a remarkable amount of content.

If this game came out today, people would be up in arms against what is clearly a poorly executed expansion pack, and not a new or innovative sequel. Some praise it for its simple gameplay, and to that I say, simple things for simple people. This might have seemed impressive for the time of an Atari game, but modern audiences deserve much more, and can see this offering for what it is, a lazy cash grab that gets praise for being the first game that people got for free with their computer.

That's easy - just taking a quick look at the top 100 highest user ranked video games on the longest running and biggest gaming website we have (some of) the worst offenders:
Ocarina of Time, Symphony of the Night, Monster Hunter games, Suikoden II, Kingdom Hearts games, The Witcher 3, Multiple Super Smash Bros games, Fire Emblem: Awakening, Mass Effect 2, Golden Sun: The Lost Age, The Elder Scrolls 4, Final Fantasy Tactics, Disgaea 4, Fantasy Life.

Overrated only means that someone other than you liked a thing more than you did. It has no real meaning outside of that, it's just a marker of how much your opinion meshes with the overall opinion.
