On the game. Not me beating it.
I thought it was awesome, myself. The combat was really well put together, and switching between gunplay and swordplay worked very smoothly, which I thought was actually somewhat unachievable. The story, of course, wasn't anything worth mentioning, but I think it progressed well enough.
Favorite parts:
-Last boss fight. I only played it on medium and I needed to step up my game. On hard, this would be a fucking pain, I'm sure. The setting, the fight, it was just a really cool gameplay moment.
-The train. I thought that this just had so much rooted in Western mythos, and because of that, really thought it fit well. Besides, it perfectly molded the two themes of the game. Fight ninjas on a train. East and west. Done.
Least favorite parts:
-The fucking minigunners. These things were just an incomprehensible fuckup to take out half the time, to the point where it wasn't difficult, jusrt annoying as shit.
-The ending. Unfortunately, after killing the boss (in a very badass way), the game just sort of stops with your character looking out into the distance. That was pretty lame.
What do the rest of you think? OR DID YOU NOT PLAY IT?
