![]() I myself will be waiting for my Series X to arrive before starting anew. The story runs about 8-10 hours long but begs to be replayed. ![]() I cannot congratulate the developers enough by choosing Daniel Deluxe to show of his craft here. ![]() The tone is just perfect! Reminiscent of old school Daft Punk and Tron, it always helps to keep you fully immersed in the world of Dharma City. The musical score here is utterly phenomenal. The voice acting is highly commendable and none of the characters bored me but kept me intrigued to see the plot play out. The story line is quite foreseeable but it is played out very well. Between fighting a multitude of enemies that require defeating them in certain ways matched with the fast and furious platforming this game will keep you on your toes. The variety in enemies here has to be commended as for each new thug you face you will have to alter how you are going to proceed. Ghostrunner gives you training wheels at first and slowly as you progress from the slums of Dharma city to the jaw droppingly beautiful top level, difficulty is steadily increased. This just makes the game all the more special. The sense of joy, exhilaration and pride you feel is second to none. Just like Dark souls, you get better and better and after numerous failed attempts you finally prove yourself and storm passed whatever feat was in your way. luckily, we are provided with a mostly generous checkpoint system matched with a much appreciated instant respawn system. You require a mastery of pin point accuracy and cunning. Never have I played a game where you need to be constantly thinking forward as you run and jump through a level, slicing multiple enemies as you go. What do you get when you put the difficulty of dark souls, the platforming of mirrors edge and the world of bladerunner into a pot? The answer is, this game. Which is exactly how this game makes you feel. None of these make your heart pump so fast or fuel your body full of adrenaline. Sure, there are plenty of 3rd person hack and slash games like Ninja Gaiden, Metal Gear Solid Rising and Onimusha to name but a few. No game comes to mind that truly make you feel like a quick as lightning ninja. Ghostrunner also known as Jack is one katana wielding, slip and sliding, wall running bonafide badass.
