Multiplayer
Players who bring up Multiplayer mostly praise it.
The game is clearly built with cooperative play in mind, supporting up to four players online.
42 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
The only things I can say are good are the graphics, the music, and the upgrade system, the latter of which actually does a good job at letting you experiment with ability and makes sure don't become to strong to fast with each character, though since your skill points are always available once you earn them, you petty much have to handicap yourself on repeat playthroughs by resting your skills and waiting to use the points to avoid it being too easy.

Co-op
