As much as I might like Bayonetta or Nier Automata or Metal Gear Rising, etc., I really think they had a great idea and pulled it off perfectly with this. A silly story that doesn’t bombard you with long cutscenes or dialogue, really funny stuff for what is there, but mostly it’s just focused on raw gameplay with a dynamic difficulty system, as well as a ton of different jabs and strikes and uppercuts and other kinds of moves that you can completely customize into your own combos and button configs that add a lot of depth to it. Basically it’s a 3D beat-em-up from before Clover became Platinum and between it and Ōkami, basically two polar opposites in tone, it may well be my favorite by them. God Hand I think is a bit more well known now, I don’t really know about back when it was first released other than that IGN gave it a 3 but apparently they were an outlier.

The only thing is it’s a bit of a harder sell with some of the gameplay feeling awful, but for me personally the story was one of my favorites of its genre. And not your typical ghost children either, but rather dealing with stuff like bullying gone too far or abuse or brainwashing, a lot of stuff I shouldn’t say probably. I believe you can download it for PS3.Īnother game by the same developer is Rule of Rose, and it’s much more in the horror genre, a la Silent Hill only most of the scary stuff has to do with kids. I have not been through the whole thing but most of what I played is kinda disturbing but also very charming. Basically, take the time system from Majora’s Mask and make the entire game based around the NPCs quirks and schedules.

One in particular was Chulip, a very strange game but the basic premise was that you had to go around kissing everyone in town in some weird effort to learn how to woo your crush.

But I guess I’ll try despite not knowing whether these were actually ever unknown or not.

I’m afraid I probably don’t have much to offer, especially having only had a Dreamcast very briefly and only really getting into PS2 games after the popularity died down, much of my time with it at first being spent almost exclusively in GTA: San Andreas.
