A revolution for the genre, no other beat-em-up I've played has managed to come close to its heights. The smoothness of its controls and gameplay without any real extraneous bells and whistles, the enemy variety where almost every one feels fair and fun to fight, the amazing yet tense as hell Specials system. Nothing else can really compare.

With the DLC added, this game just becomes peak. Love the rougelike-esque survival mode and the new characters are a blast. Add the absolutely incredible soundtrack and you've got an action game that's up there with DMCV, it's that damn good.
