Awesome game. In my opinion, this the best of the XBOX Live-capable titles.

If not for the quality of the game and development job (detail, framerate, control, etc), then definitely the socially orientated online gameplay is what drives it home.

Though the plotline seems totally confusing and random, it's dismissable thanks to the arcade-style online features/lobbies/etc. My only hope now is that they release a content-addon patch sometime in the future (maybe another character to give Hayabusa a vacation ;))

My only other gripe is the music. Far too distracting in my opinion. Thankfully, they let you disable it.

5 stars, Team Ninja!
