Sin and Punishment surprised me more than probably any other game this year so far. I expected to enjoy Bloodborne, I knew I'd love Persona 3 Reload, but not only did I NEVER hear about this game, but I grew to love it. What a classic.

I give Sin and Punishment an 8!
Sin and Punishment was one of the most unexpected, thrilling rides for me. Like many others, it looked interesting on the NSO page, so I figured I'd try it out. What the hell. This game was a blast. The run and gun shooting is amazing, and feels great to blow shit up left and right. It's like a cool and easy action game that makes you feel cool. I love it. The story, well...kind of just there, and the graphics by modern standards are shit. I don't know. I used to hate it, but I've grown to LOVE the N64/PSX graphics. Like, it's one of my favorite eras of visuals, just behind the SNES and Genesis. So for me, the graphics and controls are not a problem at all. Actually, for an N64 title, the controls are super smooth in this game, unlike Mario 64, OOT, and others for me.
There is always stuff flying at you left and right, but at the same time there's a pattern to it that gets a rhythm going. The arcade style of these levels are great, and I can probably see myself going back to this game every now and then.
