This is like Hotline Miami and not just the basic top down stealth/action gameplay.
77 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
It's nice to hear how the original OST sounded like and compare to Xtrullor's VIP versions in the Remaster and, while there are noticeable improvements in the Remaster, the original OST still holds up and is a joy to listen to while you mercilessly gun down crackheads and thugs.
