    What you get is a campaign that just seems like a more polished version of a custom addon campaign. It has its fair share of technical problems, and its far, far too easy, except for the sudden, but satisfying difficulty curve at the end of the campaign.

What really irks me though, is that there seems to be so much unused potential here.

    I'd suggest that if you managed to make it through the entire game the first time around, then you owe it to yourself to purchase The Passing. Sure, it's short, but the mutation mode is set to add a heap of gameplay over the coming months, so get on board sooner rather than later.
