So Eurogamer just gave this a 9/10...

...and like in the second paragraph they straight up call it "God Hand 2."

I am now more excited for this game than is reasonable. Seriously considering importing it, since it's localized in english already and everything.

They say its like god hand. Now I'm starting to get interested.

#3 Posted by MikeGosot (3227 posts) - 10 months, 2 days ago

I'm thinking about importing it, but it's too expensive for me. Still, God Hand comparisons are a very good sign.

#4 Posted by Chop (1707 posts) - 10 months, 2 days ago

God Hand 2, you say?

I'll take eight!

#5 Posted by _Soki_ (94 posts) - 10 months, 2 days ago

Nice I have been excited for this game for a while now.

#6 Edited by ahaisthisourchance (1639 posts) - 10 months, 2 days ago

Guess we have to wait for it to come out here NEXT YEAR.

#7 Posted by Nentisys (814 posts) - 10 months, 2 days ago

sega is seriously so dumb to push this back outside of japan (atleast they have reconsidered publishing it at all)

#8 Posted by MEATBALL (1953 posts) - 10 months, 2 days ago

The rant at the end that essentially berated readers and labelled them hypocrites because they're not importing was really fucking stupid.

Free Gameplay (this technically isn't youtube spam, is it?)

I still find it crazy that it was pushed back so far. The localization is done! Even the demo has full English text and voice in it.

I went to play-asia after reading the review and put it into the cart, but I just couldn't buy a game that I'm sure will eventually come out here for £66.

Watched a gameplay vid. It's excellent and definitely a Godhand game in almost every aspect.

#13 Posted by Scrawnto (1960 posts) - 10 months, 2 days ago

I just heard of this for the first time. I really like the look of the character designs on the wiki page. I'll be looking out for it early next year, I guess.

@Dixego: you can post youtube videos without worry as long is it's not the OP.

#15 Posted by ajamafalous (10588 posts) - 10 months, 2 days ago

@Dixego: Generally youtube spam only applies to the original post of a thread. If you're posting something on topic in a thread (such as you did here) then you're golden.

That dude put in work! He kicked so much ass in such brutal ways. Now I'm definitely thinking about checking this game out. I want to do that dash and dropkick some fools.

If Gene isn't in this game IT AIN'T NO GOD HAND 2.

Shame I have an Xbox 360 so I can't import it. I SO WOULD.

#18 Posted by Dixego (279 posts) - 10 months, 2 days ago

@ajamafalous: @Skytylz: Oh, ok, thanks.

#19 Posted by Bloodgraiv3 (2679 posts) - 10 months, 1 day ago

The game looks pretty good, I might check it out whenever it comes here.

#20 Posted by Napalm (9020 posts) - 10 months, 1 day ago

And this gets a resounding, "meh," from me.

Actually, it is region free on 360.

So edgy.

#24 Posted by 49th (1778 posts) - 10 months, 1 day ago

No way I'm paying £60 for this no matter how good it is. I can wait till next year.

That's weird. I thought that you liked God Hand/Beat 'em ups.

God Hand this is not.

How did they review the game months before it is being released?

#28 Posted by MikeGosot (3227 posts) - 10 months, 1 day ago

@Napalm: But it's a cool game, at least! Though i really love these kinds of games, even when the majority of people say they're mediocre. Have you played MadWorld?

The characters look stupid and the fighting system doesn't resemble anything I'd actually want out of a beat'em up.

It's out already in japan.

Is it common for Eurogamer to review a game that did come out in Europe?

Anarchy Reigns

In a distant, chaotic future, cyborgs beat the crap out of each other in this multiplayer-heavy 3D beat 'em up from the developers of MadWorld and Bayonetta.
