Summary: Enormous depth, enormous challenge! 2008-07-22
Comment: God hand is one of those games that doesn't reveal its true nature until you've passed several very difficult hurdles, and passing those hurdles of course requires some understanding of the game. This sort of masochistic logic left one IGN reviewer giving the game a 3 out of 10, and one can't help but feeling a little sorry for the guy. The game certainly doesn't go out of its way to separate itself from modern button-mashers or shallow beat-em-ups, although treating it as such will yield you only frustration and failure. Even on easy, the game won't permit you to play it like double dragon or final fight--so what is this game about and why has it snugged its way into cult status instead of being acknowledged as the greatest game on the PS2?
To begin with, the game engine has enormous depth and flexibility--which you will need to master and abuse if you have any intention of challenging the game's punishing difficulty. Much like Street Fighter you will have to use cancels, juggles, grappels and set-ups and 'supers' to deal your greatest damage, like many 3-D fighters, you will have to side-step your opponents attacks with split-second accuracy, and like any brawler, the rule of the land is divide and conquer. Add to this a guard break mechanic, a dynamic difficulty, and the god hand itself and you have a truly complex game where no play though will be like the next.
Did I mention you can customize your moves? Here is another level of depth, meaning that the way you play God Hand won't be like anyone else. Mix and match the way you want to for either maximum abuse or maximum style! The farther you get into the game, the more moves become open to you.
There's also gambling and chihuahua races, but the core of the game remains the fighting--and did I say the AI was really hard? You'll need to know all your opponents moves, counters, etc. if you want to survive. You'll also need to conserve that all-mighty God Hand and the roulette moves (supers) until you really need them. Will you take the game on at its hardest level, or manage the dynamic difficulty by begging for mercy here and there?
How you choose to play God Hand is up to you, but the game rewards endless exploration of its mechanics and is always addictive and thrilling to play.
Definitely one of the best games on the PS2.

Comment: God Hand is addictive, fun, and hilarious. Over a hundred different attacks to be learned and a storyline that sports great voice actors and awesome graphics.

Summary: Funnnnnnnn!!!! 2008-07-01
Comment: I read a review on [...] giving it 3 out of ten. So i was expecting a really bad game, but instead i got a really fun game with some great fighting depth. You can make your on combos out of the moves u buy or find. so if u get tired of seeing the same punch or kick u can change it up. the story is lacking and seems added just for the heck of it. Owning enemies and bosses are fun. And the final battle is intense as hell really got the blood pumping. 2nd play through u can new and more powerful moves. Way better then a 3 at least in the high 7's.

Summary: Fist Of The North Star Meets Army Of Darkness style humor! 2008-04-22
Comment: I picked up this game largely based on the reviews here, and I was NOT disappointed! This game is one of the best I have ever played; It can be tough, but it is very rewarding. You play as GENE, a sort of hapless heroe, whose attitude reminded me of Ash in the Evil Dead Series. He saves a girl, Olivia, who bestows upon him the power of the God Hand, in exchange for basically telling him everything to do. Along the way you meet lots of wild charachters including a demon mexican Elvis impersonator(!), A sexy nymph, a gorilla in a wrestling mask, a rocker who uses his guitar as a weapon, midget Power Rangers, and lots of guys spouting Mike Tyson-like threats. Filled with quirky humor and in-jokes, this game will keep you interested till the very end.
