Pro Good controls
The controls are tight and responsive, which is great for a beat em up game as you will need to make precise moves in order to fight well against the enemies on each stage.
Cons
Con Story is pretty bland
The story does not really stand out and is a weak point of the game, though being a side scrolling platforming shooter/brawler the story is not really integral to the gameplay itself. Shank 2 takes on some heavy storied elements but sadly does not really take advantage of them and instead tends to just go over the top, which usually just falls flat.
Con High difficulty
The gameplay can be quite tough, especially considering it uses roguelike elements by way of randomized stages, which means you never know what is going to be thrown at you next.
