Super original
Super epic
Great graphics and sound
Too long
Way too difficult
Unfortunately not replay worthy
(Based on Arcade version)
So the only glaring problem with this game is that it is WAAAAAY too f****** long. It just kept GOING and GOING, but of course it looked and sounded great- plus they changed up the fighting to be more against monsters and zombies which was fun. SOOO expensive to play and beat though.
