I don't think I will ever play another game in my lifetime that is so stubborn and insistent on defying convention every time it gets a chance. When an opportunity to abide by convention presents itself, Killer7 simply says "no", turns in the opposite direction, and walks away.

This game is the essence of Suda's entire "punk" attitude towards game directing and for me, his masterpiece. Everything down to how it's stylized, the control scheme, the general esoteric nature of the game is handcrafted to the tee.

Also, this is by far the most quotable video game ever made, like it's not even close. Sorry Metal Gear Rising.
