I enjoyed the story mode more than custom tracks, and the fact that there's actually a decent kung-fu fantasy story in this game is a major plus to me.
Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
75 of 300 sampled reviews raised it

the graphics are pretty good and the music fits the game perfectly!
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
43 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Personally I think it had an awesome soundtrack and I think there is a good chance that the devs could release dlc to extend the story line or just add more songs in freeplay.
Controls
Players who bring up Controls mostly praise it.
27 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
I used an Xbox 360 controller (so much easier) for my play sessions so far and I'd recommend one here, as the keyboard controls can get a bit frustrating.
