My best scores from this game have come whilst listening to Raekwon's "Only Built for Cuban Links" record turned up LOUD, sitting about 1 1/2 feet away from the TV and throwing wild curses at every shape on the set. It's a very involving game and you need a real bad ass mentality in order to survive. The dual thumbstick control is great, however when gunning for the high scores it can really start to make the hands ache as our thumbs arent really designed for such movements!
All in all this is super addictive high octane gameplay which is a real rush to experience, and it's also super hard to get a good score so it keeps you coming back for more beatings. A perfect XBOX Live addition, one you'll come back to time and time again. Well worth it.
