BYKING builds on the framework of the first game by expanding the roster, polishing the presentation, and offering a broader selection of modes without straying far from the accessible formula.
Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.

They improved on it's combat from the former game and added a lot more features that.... well makes it replayable.
Co-op
Players who bring up Co-op mostly praise it.
17 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
And if you happens to be lucky and have friends, then the co-op basically doubles the content for you.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
13 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
It runs and plays flawlessly on the highest graphics settings (excluding motion blur) and the only reason I haven't played long was because my CPU got overworked from OJ, causing heavy frame skips and motion blur even though the setting was off.
