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.
