Definitely a fun romp with great visual style, absurdist humor, forgettable story and simple, but compelling gameplay.
Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.
83 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
United with over-the-top humor, weapons and enemies, challenging difficulty, this whole ensemble makes VB an excellent game.
Graphics

Excellent art style that works extremely well with its "comic book"-esque storytelling.
Difficulty
Players who bring up Difficulty mostly praise it.
53 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
I played on the highest difficulty available to me in the beginning, and that made a lot of difference in my experience with the game.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
24 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
You can easily tell what each sound is after a couple of hours of gameplay, and the game features stellar voice acting and some really advanced audio processing for such a simple game.
Performance
Players who bring up Performance mostly praise it.
21 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Combat in VB is FPS style, and quite good at that, just do not expect huge mobs of enemies as in other FPS games, as enemy encounters are somewhat limited in numbers most of the time, favoring a more tactical approach rather than an all-out slaughter.
