Great article. I tried Runaway but found it too annoyingly difficult for the wrong reasons, but I loved its style.
This got me a little worried -

Runaway 2's puzzles promise to be just as quirky and illogical as in the first game. For example: Brian can't get across the quicksand until he does away with a mischievous lemur that keeps jumping across his path. The puzzle solution involves a mechanical toy dog that distracts the lemur by barking, walking around, and lifting his leg to—well, you know. If you couldn't stand the puzzling in the original game, you'll probably have the same complaints about the sequel, but if you enjoyed hobnobbing with drag queens, making coffee with Mayan relics, and finding creative uses for tubes of lipstick, Runaway 2 will be right up your alley.

Is advertising "illogical" puzzles really going to help this title sell?!
