This game is just awesome. I finished it a week ago and I just kept playing it again and again to enjoy the scenes and the story. It is really a text-book example of how to reuse materials from comics or established franchise in a game. You don't need superior graphics. You don't need 3D. You don't always need online elements. All you need is to be faithful to the core of the materials. You need a good presentation and execution of of your game play to match the materials.
BTW, check out this Japanese online game for Hokuto no Ken - http://www.hokutonoken-online.jp/. It is a MMORPG in which the player can experience the world of the comic. The idea seems awesome but somehow it kind of illustrates my points above.
