Excellent. I have a Gamestop gift card I've been looking to use on something.

You have to keep in mind that Greg loves what most other people hate.

God Hand is mind numbing. I'm pretty sure that Namco's Project: Breakdown was the #1 underrated game of the decade.

The Like/Hate Thread - Szar - 01-20-2009

I personally enjoyed God Hand as well.

The Like/Hate Thread - Jack - 01-20-2009

Apparently people loved God Hand. Maybe I'm thinking of another game.

But then again, people loved Army of Two. And I co-opped through that game in like, two fucking days. And then, even though it's Army of TWO, more than one person can't connect to X-Box Live at a time. Wtf?

Having to get up at 5:30 whilst living with people that don't believe in going to bed before 1 AM.

Old people, that can't hear the television or each other very well. So everything is the aural equivalent to those jumbo-tron administered test booklets that they pass out in grammar schools to the blind and retarded. (That means they are loud)

You have to realize that games journalism is one massive joke. Hype, pre-expectations and random whim of the reviewer tend to have a large affect on score. God Hand did not fit into any mould, because it doesn't bother trying to be pretty or have a good story. It's the most unpretentious game I've ever played. It doesn't try to 'fill out' the levels with puzzles and other shit; from start to finish, you are just killing things. A lot of reviewers see that as a bad thing, anyone with a teaspoon of logic realizes it's just cutting the crap. Its plot is one giant self-parody of the action genre, complete with poison chihuahuas and robot ninjas. It's deliberately B-movie. Again, reviewers apparently didn't get the joke.

I mean ... it's directed by the guy who made Resident Evil 4, and designed by the same guys who did Viewtiful Joe and Okami. The guy from Phoenix Wright produced. Anyone who thinks the game isn't exactly what they meant for it to be is nuts.

See here for an explanation that's biased but does do well at illustrating how reviewers constantly contradict themselves and seem to just be raving a lot of the time.

This describes my experiences with the game pretty well, once the combat 'clicked':

Believe it or not, I actually placed a bet with myself that you were going to come in and say something to that effect XD

My one contention with the game (and I think why so many people failed to 'get it') was that there is literally no tutorial, just a few pointers and stuff. Some people liked that because it encourages figuring out the game out by yourself, experimenting etc (which is a big part of the game since there are so many moves and combos) but I found the game a lot more fun after watching a few videos that really demonstrate what you can do in the engine, like this one.

Tutorials are for pussies. Back in the good ol days of genesis, they didn't have tutorials. Pussies.
