Having completed the game recently, I was wondering if any of the members here are interested on a beat em ups, wackiness or just anything resembling your favourite shonen chinese cartoons.

God Hand, a PS2 Beat Em Up game developed by Clover Studio, released by Capcom, is about a person named Gene, who finds a young woman named Olivia being attacked by two punks, being after the package on her arms. His attempt to be heroic gets his arm cut off, but as thanks for saving her, Olivia attaches the package - the right God Hand - to his stump and explains the situation: a group of demons are trying to resurrect the Demon King Angra (SATAN in Japan). Only the one with the power of the God Hand can stop him, and unfortunately for Gene, he just got assigned to the place.

The short plot aside, game has a great sense of humor, customizable combos and button inputs for different moves, very stylish power moves and kick ass soundtrack. The only drawback one could say for the game that it is hard, and just playing it and getting good at it makes it harder. Personally, since the lack of difficult games, this one is a good refreshment and personally it's becoming one of the best and favourite games I have ever played.





Have you heard of this game? Are you interested on it at all? I am curious to see if I'm the only one who thinks so.
 
It's been on my "to buy list" for a while now. Problem is there's literally hundreds of games on that list. Then once I finally buy it it'll probably spend a million years in my backlog.

You should prioritize your backlog depending on the game's quality. If it's yet another kind of "openworld-RPG-w/crafting", that should go to the bottom, while this game should be at the top. It's on same manner as Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance, being one of it's kind, which is why I think it should be on the top.
Then again, I don't know about your preferences on genres, but hack n' slash/beat em ups are close to me as shoot em ups.
 
I love yakuza, the warriors, bully, Bayonetta, and devil may cry. That's the only reason god hand is on my to buy list
 
Wanted to revive this thread to tell also about that the moment I had beaten God Hand, I couldn't get enough of it, so I decided to tackle on it with Hard difficulty and KMS challenge. KMS stands for Kick Me Sign, which is a sign that gets placed on stage 1-2, and it gets removed if you use either of two of your special powers (unleashing the God Hand or using Roulette Wheel). The beginning is a bit rough due to lacking new game+ features (save for costume change), but it is edited so no deaths, retries or unnecessary filler is left in it.
