All-Time Highest Rated Games Tagged 'fighter' on The Great Games Experiment http://www.greatgamesexperiment.com/css/logo.jpg en-us God Hand is a throwback to the old days of gaming. Influenced by games like Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Turtles in Time, Streets of Rage, and Spider-Man: Maximum Carnage. You play as a young man named Gene who lost his arm trying to save a girl from some demons. Fortunately, the girl affixed a "God Hand" to you, and now you and your new arm are looking for a little revenge. The God Hand allows you to go into "God Hand" mode and pummel your opponents with unbelievable speed, without having to fear retaliation. When the God Hand runs out, you'll be forced to rely on your quick reflexes to take out the various enemies in the game. The combat system is better than any you'll ever see. With over a hundred different techniques to assign to over 16 button combinations, you'll have a good chance against whatever will come your way.

If you're tired of demolishing baddies, you can take a break with some poker, blackjack, or roullette. If you're looking for a little more baddie beating you can try your hand at the arena. All of these things provide you with money to fund your attack on all things evil.

The soundtrack is one of the best to be heard, mixing surfer rock with some good ol' western tunes. Various moments give way to audacious clapping, and laugh tracks, allowing you to experience the games bombastic humor tenfold.

Speaking of humor, no game uses the word "douchebag" more than God Hand does. Gene has a potty mouth, and he's not afraid to use it. The characters you'll face include a paranoid psychokinetic midget on a rock, a man(?) in a gorilla suit, a slutty temptress, a fat ninja, a group of power ranger-esque midgets, and more. That list doesn't include the hilarious one-liners, poison chihuahua's, and mad slapstick comedy.

]]> 30 Jan 2007 09:55:48 There really isn't much of a story to this game. There's an evil character named Abyss who is destroying the Earth. Ruby Heart discovers this, and characters are sent to destroy him. Unlike the first game, there was only one ending no matter who the game is completed with.

The gameplay has fairly standard fighting controls (two punch, two kick, two assist). There are also combo and super combo moves, as well as combos that can be done with more than one character.

Probably the most unique thing about it is the diverse cast. One side of it comes from all over the comic world, and the other side comes from some of the great 2-D fighting games of all time. Finally getting to fight using such big names that people never expected to be in the same game together was and still is a huge deal.

Story

The game featured the acrobatic, gun slinging D'arci Stern, a Union City police officer on the edge. The plot soon takes a twist as local gang 'The Wildcats' begin to attempt taking over the city. To help with her quest, Stern not only has an assortment of weapons but also a partner, a paranoid vigilante named Roper McIntyre who seems to know more than he lets on. D'arci and Roper can drive several types of vehicles around Union City, each with different handling. The player can also gain character upgrades and talk to civilians for clues, warnings or just a giggle.

The game was based around the events during the turn of the new millennium and the predictions of Nostradamus, as a street gang turned cult attempt to take over Union City. To top it off, mysterious men in black are appearing in the streets, and the tension is building towards the final showdown.

]]> 08 Jun 2007 06:14:22 WWII Flight sim where you're the commander f the Blazing Angels. You start as a volunteer in WWII fighting with the british and French, then move on to other campaigns of the war such as Pearl Harbor, Guadalcanal, Normandy (D-Day), North Africa, and even a bombing raid on Tokyo. It's more of an arcade type game, with in air repairs, unlimited ammo, and simple commands, but it's fun and challenging, and there's plenty of unlocks through the campaign and even in arcade mode, and Ace Duels with AI opponents in the same type of aircraft you're flying.

The Mutiplayer is where this game shines with several modes like Co-op, and duels, or simplay to see who can down the most aircraft. It's a fun title, but don't buy it new. Pick up a used copy and enjoy the game, as this title isn't for everyone.
