Is it still worth playing?

Travis Touchdown returns to the assassin ranks at number 51 to avenge his friend, in this 2010 action adventure from Grasshopper Manufacture for the Wii. Most attacks use buttons while finishers use motion controls, and the new dual beam katanas are among the weapons. The open city of the first game is replaced by a menu from which you pick ranked battles and side jobs. Those jobs are 8 bit minigames, such as Bug Out. Shinobu and Henry are playable too, with ranged attacks. A Deathmatch mode unlocks after the story of about ten hours and lets you replay boss fights and save your fastest times. Classic Controller support was added. The story is told through cutscenes of a woman at a peep show. Boss fights that you can replay still give the revenge story a reason to keep going.
