There will be 2 occasions most people will buy this game when it comes out this summer. The first is girls who think this game looks pretty and wont be AS violent as the "boy" games. The second occasion anyone will buy this game is when it is used for couples to have a mutual interest game. Ladies, if you are looking for a game you AND your boyfriend can play together, El Shaddai: Ascension of the Metatron is a pretty good choice. This game has bright, pretty, japanese style graphics and an entertaining story line plus great fight mechanics. Add in "easy to learn controls" and this game should keep many couples, women, and japanese teens entertained for hours on end. Lets just hope the price is competitive enough to be sold as a limited market game. Keep your eyes peeled for a mid-summer release.Vollständige Rezension lesen
When I got it, I figured it would pretty much be just a mindless hack and slash game. Turns out, it's more satisfying than that. In order to fight properly, you have to steal a weapon from an enemy, and purify it. You fight for long enough with one weapon, you'll need to purify it again, or something nasty will happen. I generally purify my weapon before it hits that point, but apparently the longer you go without purifying it, the weaker it gets. There are three types of weapons, long range Gales, mid range Arcs, and short range Veils. Gales are like floating missiles that (mostly) track enemies. Arcs are the "sword" of the three, with the added ability of allowing you to float for an extra distance if needed. Veils are the power weapons, a few hits with these, and the enemy is as good as dead. On to the story, or as much as I've played of it. Your character, Enoch, is sent down to Earth to find some Angels who have fallen, and essentially seal them away for their transgressions. These Fallen Angels have made a sect of humanity worship them, so their prayers no longer reach God. Along with you for the ride is Lucifel. He has a snazzy business get up, and an anachronistic smart phone, which he uses to give the Big Man updates on your progress. He's probably the character I like the most, but am wary of because of said outfit. Anyways, this game is fun, even if I tend to play in short bursts, due to frustration with my depth perception causing me to fall into holes quite a bit. Another issue with this game is a lack of a proper health bar. The only way you know how much health you have is your armour set. Your armour actually breaks once you reach a certain level of health. Of course, there's also a red tinge around the edge of the screen, once you reach low enough health. Luckily, even if you fall in battle (or down holes enough) you can still get back up by mashing certain buttons. All in all, a decent game. Controls are easy to learn, battle difficulty is what you set it to, the story is interesting, and the weapons are cool.Vollständige Rezension lesen
Bestätigter Kauf: Ja | Artikelzustand: Gebraucht
This game is simply brilliant! The artistic design is amazing. The environments vary a large amount, each being incredibly well developed and spectacular. The music matches each level perfectly and are amazing as stand alone tracks as well. This is a combat that is easy to pick up and difficult to master, it is wonderful. The only comment I have against this game for other players is that it is quite difficult. Novice players ensure they should play on easy, even regular hack and slash players might want to stay away from the harder modes at first. I would recommend this game immediately to anyone. I do not have much to say, just get this game and experience this amazing game!
It's difficult to compare El Shaddai with any other games as it is extremely unique. It's part hack-and-slash (with no computer-aided aiming, giving you complete control of the character) and somewhat reminds me of the Kingdom Hearts combat. It's also a brilliant adventure-puzzle hybrid (much like Shadow of the Colossus). And it is graphically-stunning, placing you in dreamscapes not often found in today's games (visuals in El Shaddai are accented with wild, colorful, sometimes organic overlays, reminiscing of Rez and Okami). The camera is third-person and I've never found it to be wonky. On some levels it feels like a platformer. The storyline is bit confusing from the start, but becomes clearer as the game progresses. I believe that was intentional. There's a lot left to the user to discover in El Shaddai, and I think that's what pure adventure games need to feature in order to be good. The soundtrack is also very solid and fits the game like a glove. When you put these elements together, you get one hell of a game. I definitely recommend you pick this one up. There is animated violence and some gore, so take that into account if you're purchasing for a teen who is on the borderline of not handling that sort of thing.Vollständige Rezension lesen
Beautiful game. Underrated, overlooked, and hopefully to be re-discovered. Sometimes it takes a game a few years for players to revisit it and ask, why didn't I play this game? It's stylish, artistic, and the game play and combat are awesome. Right now you can probably pick up this game pretty cheap, so pick up a copy and enjoy.
