Paragraph 1 wrote:

While some games try to be cinematic, artful, or respectable, God Hand aims for excess. The cacophony that blares from this brawler sounds like an arcade full of Street Fighter 2 machines amplified through Spinal Tap's sound system. The game doles out more comedic pimp slaps, spankings, and knees to the nuts than an episode of America's Funniest Home Videos, and punctuates it all with laugh tracks and cartoon sound effects.


It wasn't until the bitching proper began in paragraph 2 that I realized this paragraph was mean to be negative. Emphasis added, prissiness already present in truckloads.

If there's one thing I associate with kickass videogames, it's respectability.

Beyond the game: God Hand is the final game from now-defunct Clover Studios, the team that crafted the critically acclaimed watercolor beauty Okami. Way to go out on a lowbrow note, guys.


NOT ARTY ENOUGH! WE ARE SO FUCKIN' WORLDLY NOW THAT WE LIVE IN NEW YORK.
