God Hand Review

So I recently bought God Hand, and it has recently become a nightly fixture.It's safe to say that this is becoming one of my favorite action games of all time- only a rung or so down from DMC3.And it seems like many of the people who actually spent time with the game feel the same way.

Critics, however, bombed this brawler like there was no tomorrow.It's disappointing, because even publications I typically agree with gave the game abysmal scores (for a Clover game, at least).When I first turned the game on, I was unimpressed.After 5 minutes, I really wanted to turn it off.I didn't, and I'm glad that I pressed on.The fact that your arsenal of moves is entirely customizeable is awesome.Then you have all sorts of special attacks.A HUGE number of extra moves and special attacks can be bought from the store, so the number of possible attack sequences is nearly infinite.Depending on what difficulty you play on, you will probably find yourself frequently switching up your movelist to maximize damage or change-up the juggling properties of your combos to match the attributes of the enemies you face.Good stuff...

Critics complained that the number of enemy types is low (it's really not THAT low) and that the game felt repetitive.Except that one thing (the same thing that saved Chaos Legion) saves God Hand from ever feeling repetitive: it's difficult.Anybody who elects to play the game on easy and breeze through may feel slighted- the joy of this game come from defeating the difficult enemies the game throws at the player on normal and hard difficulties.The game is so focused on throwing challenges at the player that it even has a bizarre leveling system.The better you play, the higher your level goes.When you kill enemies at higher levels, you get more money.However, at higher levels, the enemy AI kicks it up several notches.

Critics also complained that the camera was bad.Yet, while the camera can occasionally feel unwieldy, it feels right in the context of this brawler.Since Clover wanted to map the VERY useful array of dodge moves to the right analog stick, there simply isn't room for full camera movement.

There are also some very enjoyable mini-games and side sections to break up the action.There's a casino with slots and video poker as well as a battle ring with assorted challenges.

Add on top of that a really zany sense of humor and an off-beat soundtrack and you get a really quality brawler.Am I the only one that has been loving this gem?
