Short and pretty sweet! Rights some of the wrongs of the first game but introduces its own issues. The controls sometimes trip up on themselves in the heat of battle (grabbing a weak enemy - an essential tactic to healing and getting ammo from enemies - is bound to the same button as grabbing a weapon off the floor) but the gameplay is generally fast and fluid. The art style is fun and the game has a ton of personality, even if our protagonist, Jackie, is largely unlikeable; Who knows what Jenny sees in him.

The bonus co-op Vendetta mode was good fun for an afternoon with a buddy!
