It is a kind of sequel of Mad World, one of Platinum Games' most stylish games. Its PvP mode is fast-paced, frantic, stylish with colorful characters and random events and items. Every character is OP so none of them were. It was the best game on the PS3 to just jump in and do Death Ball, a 3-man CTF or a Battle Royale with 16 people. I want this on GoG because it could be a great jump-in game and Platinum has released some of their games on PC already, but overlooked this one.
The arena fighter that should have been the blueprint for hundreds more to come. The original Battle Royale. Anarchy Reigns was PlatinumGames' take on the 3rd person melee action genre and it was perfect. Multiple modes to jump in and just see ABSOLUTE CHAOS. Team Deathmatch, Capture the Flag, Dogfight(3v3 HELICOPTER BATTLES), Top this all off with a soundtrack that has spread so far and wide it's used for several edits and compilations. It is truly a cult classic

The more I learn about this game, the more I feel it deserved a better chance than it got. Platinum put so much work and creativity into this one. Like many I discovered it through the soundtrack but stayed for the personality and gameplay.
Gotta get the cash Gotta get the dough Gotta get the cash Gotta get the dough Gotta get the cash Gotta get the dough Gotta get the cash Gotta get the dough Gotta get the cash Gotta get the dough Gotta get the cash Gotta get the dough! This was very sletped game no fault of the game itself. This game is pure hype for beat them ups that are in the mad world universe (Another game that should be on GoG) Each character have their quirks and personalitys and a short solo campaign game. However the multiplayer can be choatic really fast and it is amazing!
