Is it still worth playing?

Two years after the first game, Jackie Estacado is the head of the Franchetti family and the organized crime leader of New York. He holds down the Darkness in his blood until the Brotherhood comes for it. It is a February 2012 shooter for PlayStation 3, Xbox 360 and PC. It is drawn like the comic it comes from. The fight is quad wielding: a gun in each hand on the triggers and a demon arm on each stick, the left to grab a thing or a man, the right to slash, and the arms rip out a heart to eat for health, lift an enemy for an execution or throw him. Four talent trees grow it, and the Darkling, a small goblin of a familiar, can be sent where Jackie cannot fit. Vendettas is a co-op campaign for four alongside the main one. It runs about seven hours. The arms still give you four hands, two of them not yours.
