Story
Players who bring up Story mostly praise it.

Unlike other third person shooters with a coop focus the main story actually feels like a fully featured action film you can play through.
Co-op
Players who bring up Co-op mostly praise it.
49 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Considering you can get it for absolutely nothing these days on a sale its a must play if you looking to have a coop game with a decent storyline and fun action scenarios.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
24 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The art style invokes the experience of watching a liveleak video on a Nokia 9000.
Multiplayer
Players who bring up Multiplayer mostly praise it.
24 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The multiplayer version is much better, offering absolutely funny multiplayer experiences with lots of unique ideas like betrayal and switching sides.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
18 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
It has a lot of environmental sounds and heavy gunfire and other sfx effects that I constantly forgot I was playing a game.
Difficulty
Players who bring up Difficulty mostly praise it.
17 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Edit: After having beaten the game on extreme difficulty, I can safely say that it has been one of the most challenging-but-fair game modes I've ever seen.
