* GameBreaker: Not that [[ItsEasySoItSucks the game has any real need for one,]] but among the cast Rachel is ''by far'' the best party member. She's fast, has an easily-chained combo, and she has the only dedicated counterattack in the game. This counterattack is easy to pull off and ''melts'' boss health bars, making Rachel all around the best character in the game. With even some amount of competence in setting the counter up, Rachel will breeze through every encounter.

* ItsEasySoItSucks: One issue ''Hard Edge'' shares with ''VideoGame/DeepFear'', another ''VideoGame/ResidentEvil''-adjacent game, is that even if enemies ''do'' have the chance to overwhelm you, you're given resources so frequently that you're never under any real danger of dying. Rationing is pointless and even disincentivized, because there's a cap to how many of each resource you're able to hold at once, so you'll continually top your party off just to make room for more items. Bullets aren't a concern for Alex, either, since the terrorists drop them frequently despite not using guns themselves. That Alex's gimmick is ''having a gun'' also means that this a rare BeatEmUp ActionGame where the player has a legitimately viable and well-stocked ranged attack option and is thus under no obligation to get into a physical scrap with a majority of the enemies [[note]]Some bosses have bullet immunity.[[/note]], which further cuts down on the difficulty. And this is before factoring in the ''actual'' GameBreaker, Rachel, who trivializes every fight in the game if the player is even somewhat consistent with her counter. All in all, this makes ''Hard Edge'' rather easy, rendering the gameplay somewhat forgettable to many.

* AntiClimaxBoss / GoddamnedBoss: The final boss battle with [[spoiler:Miguel's OneWingedAngel form]] can be a tedious slog of a boss battle with Alex as it has no less than ''three massive life bars'', and the only way it can be hurt is when the barrier around its weakpoint is down, which only happens between a cycle of very long, annoying, and easy-to-avoid attacks. The other melee-oriented characters can get past his barrier by simply beating the tar out of its weakpoint, but it's attacks will often knock away the player from fighting it up close.
