Need more games where you eat hearts
Used to play this one allot when I was younger and coming back to it I’m glad to say it still holds up, seriously one of if not my favorite beat em up.
I love the style and aesthetic since I listen to allot of punk and metal music and seeing references to stuff like Birdemic and Symphony of the Night is awesome and oozes early 2010 charm.
Beating people with limbs and burning them to death in horrible gorey ways makes this like one of the coolest games ever, plus it has a ton of replayability with different difficulties, characters, and endings.
The game definitely works better as a multiplayer experience and the lack of invincibility frames will probably lead to you dying allot but other than that it’s a 10/10.

My little brother's favorite game, and for good reason. It oozes with personality and is suprisingly tight in its controls. I've only played Tommy and only will play Tommy because I love his severed head and brain totems that support the team. PS Triple brain totems can stunlock enemies, even bosses, if you set it up right. Also his team combo, being the mech, literally deletes bosses so that's awesome. It's definitely worth a play.
Everything about this game screams the 2000's Hot Topic/Emo scene perfectly. The visuals are fantastic, the character design is great, and the soundtrack bangs. Combat is pretty iffy, I had a lot more fun playing during the early stages of the game rather than the ones near the end due to bullshit hit-juggling from the enemies and constantly getting hit with spam attacks when trapped in corners. Other than that, I have fond memories of playing this game on my Xbox 360 many years ago, and with Microsoft planning to shut down the Xbox 360 Marketplace/Arcade in July, I'm glad this game found a home on Steam.
Seriously a hidden gem in the world of Xbox 360 games. My siblings and I always had a blast playing Charlie Murder. The dedication to the aesthetic design is what I enjoyed most out of this game. I've never seen a game so passionate and wholly about punk rock. Hell, the soundtrack only makes it all better. The OST for this game was insane—a variety of harsh, grungy, punk rock songs with strong instrumentals, a touch of electronica, and grating screams. It's awesome.
The gameplay was pretty typical for a beat 'em up, but I still thought it was fun. Plus, other game elements, like the rhythm minigames and emphasis on character fashion, really tie everything together. I think Charlie Murder is criminally underrated.
