Kick-Ass: The Game vs The Asskickers

Kick-Ass: The Game drops you into a fully 3D, third‑person world where you can control the film’s iconic heroes—Kick‑Ass, Hit Girl, and Big Daddy. Fight through the streets of New York across twelve story missions and two bonus rounds, battling thugs, mob bosses, and massive crime waves with visceral, gory combat.

The Asskickers is a modern tribute to 2D arcade beat'em ups, starring Alex, Diane and Marcus as they fight through gritty urban jungles. Wrongly accused, the trio battles corrupt elites to teach white‑collar criminals the lost art of asskicking. Featuring classic side‑scroll combat, cooperative play, and a gritty storyline, the game delivers fast‑paced hack‑and‑slash action for fans of old‑school arcade titles.
