It's a fantastic game. I only own the second one, though I was told it's much better than the first.

I've never played the 2nd, because i don't have a wii. I've only got into it because the heroes paradise port tbh. But I want to play it, i need more NMH.

The second doesn't have the world map and you don't need to pay to go through the story now. And there aren't any cop out fights like Letz Shake.

I knew about the world map, but not the others. I actually liked paying for the missions on my first playthrough because of the part time jobs and the assassination missions.

You can still do the part-time jobs, but in 2 the assassination mission are replaced by (spoilers, don't read if you don't want them) revenge missions because Bishop gets killed.

Really? I never really cared for him anyway, the only thing he did was drive Travis' bike to your current location; but with the world map gone I guess he doesn't have much a purpose.
