A perfect example of how to make a Run N' Gun. Too damn short, but overwhelming bursts of adrenaline and satisfaction bring replayability. Contra and Metal Slug now have to step up their game.

Fans of beat-em-ups and gratuitous violence will find a refreshing take on the genre. It could've been a masterpiece with a deeper combat system, but four player mayhem really makes this stand out.

STFU makes playing with yourself great again. The sheer amount of possibilities by bending time creates some truly awesome and hilarious moments. The hardest boss is the terrible dialogue.

Do you spend your afternoons in a drug-induced haze from a cocktail of uppers and downers? Need something to do besides staring at the ceiling fan? Then, look no further. And invite a friend.

Turn the voice acting off, then prepare yourself for an unforgettable story that unfolds with just the right pacing, with carefully designed graphics that vomit beautiful, dystopian sci-fi noir.

Plunge headfirst into the filth and disgust. Have your very core violated and thrown into a blender. Walk away with a gaping wound in your chest that never quite heals. So much pain. Permanent damage.

A different direction than Amnesia, but that's a good thing. Oppressive atmosphere, clever story with a touch of dark humor. Focuses on dread and mystery over jump scares. Frictional raised the bar.

It's a musou; you know the drill. Only single player, however. Fans of Berserk can at least find happiness watching bodies flail and severed limbs twitch under the crushing weight of their sword.
