I thought H2 was a huge improvement over the original. Even though the repetitive levels weren't eliminated, they were reduced greatly. The in-game graphics also got a well-needed polishing.
On the downside, the cut-scenes still suck and MC's plot still requires several play-throughs before you know where the hell you are and what you're doing.
Playing as the Arbiter was my favorite part of H2. Not only was getting into the Covie mentality great, the Arbiter's plot made something vaguely resembling sense. Also, his story arc came to something pretty damn close to a conclusion, which is more than MC can say.
