** With enough practice and the right mask, it becomes possible to nail every enemy on the floor in one go without breaking your combo. Using the Brandon mask, it's incredibly gratifying to speed through a floor at the land speed record while annihilating every mobster in quick succession.

* Honestly, just playing through the whole fucking game. When nearly everyone is a OneHitWonder you'll need speed, reflexes, and violence of action to get you through.

* Getting a 12+ combo and the Combo King Achievement. This means killing 12+ enemies in quick succession without a break in between. Most ''levels'' don't have that many enemies, much less luring them all to the same place to be killed.

* [[spoiler:In the sequel, The Son fighting and slaughtering each of The Fans (except for Tony, who survives his encounter only to be shot dead by The Detective later). Sure, it's EvilVersusEvil, but he does defeat 3 one-man armies one after the other before taking on the last two (Alex and Ash) simultaneously. Made all the more awesome in that he's tripping balls throughout the entire sequence and hallucinates The Fans as monstrous versions of their animal forms. Plus, during the Alex and Ash fight, he essentially duels Alex's chain-saw with a fire-axe. He may be a violent, drug addicted psycho, but The Son is a major badass.]]
