Duke Nukem Forever is one of those games where hype isn't always what it's cracked up to be. Where hype can utterly destroy a games reputation, sometimes before a game is even released.

The sequel to 2008's XBLA hit The Dishwasher: Dead Samurai is one of the most satisfying games I've ever played.

It comes as no surprise that being the cult classic hit that it was, a sequel would be imminent. It's clean yet messy, it's sadistic yet beautiful and all in all a hell of alot of fun to play.
