One of the best Character Action games of all time. Tight movement, excellent combat, paced all at a breakneck speed.

Sure, the story is hokey and I adore it, and I love in the cutscene where Cheshire's dad dies he yells "father!" and it sounds like they used the third take, but that isn't important - what's important is that this is one of the best playing and feeling games of the genre, and helped redefine just what it could be.
