Pure online experience
4I'm not into multiplayer due to absence of time. Still bought Payday 2 since robbing banks was my dream job since childhood (doing console / PC games instead, which is much more boring than playing them). Played quite a bit with bots and wanted to throw away the disk - quite boring and bots aren't really bright. But then I tried multiplayer - this is where this game shines. Chances to face good co-op players are quite high, so team work is not something unusual here. Which is the only option here, really - separating and doing your own things won't keep you alive for long (especially when you are doing so-called "pro jobs"). I highly recommend this game to everyone loving co-op experience and tactical approach. Running guns blazing is not what this game is all about - you have to think, be careful and precise to pull some jobs. Anyway, if we don't take the single player experience in mind, there are a few drawbacks. Usually you spend 5-10 minutes to join your first game. Hard to say why - you see games with available sits, you connect quickly, you set your status to "ready" when in the lobby and later on you get a message about some people not being able to join is. Really annoying. However, pro jobs lack this issue completely, so hard to say what's going on there. The second issue in my opinion is the price level of guns and upgrades. They cost a lot. Sure you need to spend your stolen money on something, but the prices are too extreme on some things. I mean when you just start your career - you have a simple gun, no armor and pulling jobs is quite hard. Later on it gets easier as you progress. My guess is that the game creators wanted to show that the more you rob, the more you gain and the better equipment you can get. This is probably like it is in real life - you are not well equipped when robbing your first bank (which said "no" to a loan you wanted to take to rob then while having advanced equipment). But at least gun prices could have been closer to real life. Anyway, these are 2 rather minor drawbacks which can't keep you away from buying this game. It's good...it really is.

Boring and repetitive
2I saw several high rated review for this game, so I bought it for me and two other friend to play together. I have to say I'm quite disappointed. It's quite fun for the first 2 hours, then is very boring. You have to play A LOT to improve the characters and stealth action is nearly impossible (at least until you unlock high level abilities). You'd give it a try but only if you have friends to play with, AI is awful! Not recommended, anyway.

Co-op Gold
4I would highly recommend Payday 2, in spite of the graphics being quite poor and the A.I being broken and almost pointless. Payday 2 is great fun when played with friends, it has good missions and a reward system.

As good as the original Payday: The Heist game!
5I've been waiting for Payday 2 since I began playing the original Payday: The Heist, after having downloaded it. The graphics on the Xbox 360 are excellent and gameplay is addictive enough to keep you interested right throughout the game. For me, there was the right amount of violence in this game, but it was not too graphic and did not spoil the action - some games go overboard with guts and gore but I like the way you can turn killing options off and you can "sneak" your way through levels. All-in-all, Payday 2 is well worth the 5 star rating I give it!

A Co-Op Corker!
3A brilliant game for co-op! Get some friends online together and this game is great fun, not the greatest graphics, not the slickest mechanics, but a real good game for co-op play. It's let down by terrible AI in single player/campaign mode, but, overall, worth it for the online/team/co-op experience!
