I have it, but played it very little.  It's not very much fun solo.  For $10, though, you shouldn't have any trouble talking someone else into getting it too.

It's flawed, stupid fun.  They did patch the game post-release to fix some of the issues, but there are still problems with the game.  You should be able to still find games to play in campaign, but it can be slow at times.

I assume you are talking about the 360 version, but don't buy the PS3 version, not even for $10.  It's shit compared to the 360 version...slowdown all over the place and laggy online does not make for a fun game.

I'd pick it up if you're interested in the online multiplayer (deathmatch); don't buy it for the campaign mode.  That's not the focus of LP2.

Cool.  Thanks.  Exactly what I needed to know.

I got a copy at Best Buy a couple months back for $10. It was ok, only played for an hour or two.

Hm, sounds like I'm gonna pass.  I've got enough games in my backlog that seem to be a better place to waste my time.
