1* The very first chapter sets the precedent for the awesome moments in this game. The backstory is that an unpleasant man named Tokio has kidnapped a girl and falls to an executioner (later revealed to be David) to come and save her. Tokio turns his arm into a [[GatlingGood gatling gun]] and tries to kill him, but to no avail as the executioner [[ImplacableMan calmly follows him down the alley swatting bullets away with his katana]] as he runs away. When Tokio is finally cornered, the executioner raises his katana against a dark backdrop of the night sky as the rain turns red behind him. With this, the executioner utters the three words. "'''[[TitleDrop Killer is dead]]'''". This is followed by Tokio's blood splattering against a nearby wall. Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the first five minutes of the game.
2* Confronting Victor. He's an insane skeleton music producer at the top of a massive skyscraper, and you have to ride a long elevator just to get up to him. After missing out on his monologues, Mondo decides they should cut to the fight. Victor's response? "I no longer need a body of flesh", as he reveals his true form.
3* The fact that, after many, many Suda and Grasshopper games featuring the moon as a highly prominent symbol, this game marks the first time in the developers' history that you actually get to ''go'' there.
