haymaker of god aint shit wen you fight gene on die in the training thing if you win you get 99999 or sumthin i came close drunken fist spam then he killed me lol but im tryin
Sometimes in the background music it sounds like the Hawaii 5-0 theme song... Except slowed down to sound western, it's pretty awesome in my opinion. Awesome game, not only is it manly, it looks to be great fun.
Awesome tactics, and it's a pity they took the Pan Drop out of the non-Japanese versions. Looks hilarious but useful as well. It doesn't use up a Roulette token?
Oh, and at 9:53 are you really sway cancelling the Charged Uppercuts? That's so awesome!
Thank you for your kind comment, I hoped people would be interested in the mechanics despite my messy play!
I'm cancelling the back +/\ button uppercut with the forward evade. The enemy will fly a little higher each time so you can eventually use the Dragon Punch.
I thought that's what you were doing! You must have impeccable timing to pull that off. I can do about 3 or 4 HSK spams in a row using that technique, but not consistently. But with the Uppercuts as well? Wow!
The mechanics of the game stand out regardless. I love the fact it is so fully customisable. I've spent too long in the Training Arena just trying out different attack strings and combos, hahaha!
Hello! Working on my 2nd loop through the game this time, it's been a year since I last played, and my thumbs are aching again, Thought i'd ask a pro like yourself a question: What's the name of that ryu-style jumping uppercut? Also, whats your opinion on extending the combo tree, i've heard its bad because it slows you down, but I'm curious as to how the tradeoff affects comboing. any help is appreciated!
No idea what the jumping uppercut is called, I just refer to it as the "Dragon Punch" (back+Triangle when enemy is launched high). Extending the combo tree is fine as the vast majority of moves can be stopped instantly with forward evade, you aren't forced to complete the whole chain. The opening 3 or 4 strikes I usually make sure are very direct (so that I can neatly cancel and repeat with evade), but the remaining strikes can be anything you like - even a launcher into air-juggle setup.
I concur with Saur, although I have something to add. Extending the chain postpones the delay required for your combo to reset and lets you spend less time on your opening jab instead of your more powerful moves. However, it also means that your combo finisher will hit less often during an unleash.
My advice: extend the chain only if you can fill it with strong or dizzying moves (not a problem during a 2nd-loop game). I fill mine with multi-hit moves that hit hard and dizzy enemies quickly.
Is this from the Japanese manual or the English version? My kanji is not up to the level where I can understand many of the names (especially the Kung-Fu techniques).
Oh so THAT'S the function of that Pan Drop.I thought It was useless or for only(more) comic relief hahaha! Thank you so much! I have the japanese version too and even though I don't understand all the menu options I still manage to play with almost no problems.This is a really fun game.
Juggling can be ridiculously useful. If you're surrounded by enemies, juggle one and launch him/her into the others with the mid-air kick. Or better yet, unleash the God Hand, juggle one, and keep juggling with the Ryu-style dragon punch. The others will try to attack you, but since you're invincible, they'll all just get caught in the juggle, too!
If you beat the game once, you can load the clear game, you start with nothing. However, everything (Plus God moves and a new roulette) are available in the shop. Also, stuff you pick up gives you double money.
Like I said before it's a standard ability which you start the game off with. This is not the edited overseas version I'm playing, this is the original Japanese version.
SU*KA only becomes very useful once you get powerful moves such as God Knuckle; you sacrifice a little bit of health to make the opening frames of the attack safe.
not at all. The frying pan move damages gene and temporarily makes him invincible. it was put into the japanese version of the game because the japanese censors did not want a move that is in my opinion, WORLDS better. The head slicer.
a move that in the UK and US versions, will, if it is to kill the enemy, cuts off their heads.
That's not true. The "Head Slicer" was added afterwards for the overseas version. It's completely at odds with the game's slapstick humour, there's no strategy or risk/reward element applied and is nothing more than a recycled chop animation. The SU*KA technique was removed from the US localisation due to it being Japanese humour.
It's great that many people expect a sequel, it simply is never going to happen though. Best we can hope for is for the system to be carried over and modified for future titles.
It's not a frying pan. It's a shallow wash tub. In Japan it's used as a gag and I guess in America, they don't see it funny so they took it out. It would have been better if they kept it.
It's been a while since I played it. I believe there's 2 ways to get it. You can get a ticket from the slot machine and try to get it from one of the chests or play through a second time. It is expensive on the second time around thought. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.
The slightly drawn out battle between you and the second fat guy just before the bosses was just awesome, even if only for the hit that got through and finally knocked him off balance, and the pure ass-kicking that followed :)
It's used to add invincibility frames to the beginning of slow and powerful moves. It's commonly used in super runs, it uses no roulette orbs, and it's useful as hell.
I know you don't want to hear from me - but seriously there is absolutely nothing wrong with any part of this game's system. Reviewers who go on about controls "ruining" the game just haven't bothered to learn how to use them - it becomes second nature and offers you so much freedom that going back to play something else feels stunted and restrictive.
i posted my question on a few other pages and within a half-hour i got 5 replys!, every one of them overwhelmengly praising it,Guess im goin to gamestop to pick it up now lol, thanx
ok, while im waiting on my ride to gamestop to show up, does anyone have any other recomendations for other games like this(action,fighting, skill based) im a huge fan of dmc1 dmc3 and The Boucer(games that actually require skill).
Apart from Viewtiful Joe (vids on my channel) I can't think of anything else which can compare to this style of play. Bujingai has a really nice system for control but the game's level and enemy design are a complete mismatch to what you can unleash.
Finally i get to see the jap special where he gets a frying pan in the head. Nice! Probably just a small detail, but his name is Gene in the usa.. could it be a typo from your part? maybe more people can find it. Thanks for posting
I hadn't played the US version so was unsure of the correct spelling, I interpreted the Japanese katakana spelling as (Jeen - phonetically) so I spelt it "Jean".
Regardless - he pwns and you all pwn for knowing he pwns, aswell as the people around you pwning for knowing you pwn for knowing he pwns! XD
Oh... thats a lot of pwnage. No shame whatever the name he pwns us the same. Did capcom get lame? Who cares, godhand got made by clover and is will always be the one and the only, the game.
We'll have Devil May Cry 4 upon us soon, I can't wait to play that - I'm like a crackhead when it comes to Devil May Cry. Expect a lot of obsessive videos from me when it finally hits!
If you're a fan of fighting games, give Guilty Gear X2: Accent Core a try. It's not 3D, but it's incredibly fast and has a pretty high bar when it comes to skill.
For 3D, give Ninja Gaiden (XBox) and Shinobi (PS2) a try if you can find 'em. Ninja Gaiden is pretty similar to DMC1 if a bit less combo based. Shinobi is pretty different in that it relies on killing lots of enemies in a row to power yourself up for one slash, usually against a boss, as opposed to combos.
I remember that after keeping God Hand in my PS2 for 2 weeks and playing it a total of 45 hours, I tried to play Soul Calibur III... my gaming instinct was all God Hand so I was trying to use the right analog stick to dodge! XD
well it jean might be the original intention, and it gene could just be american. but gambling, drinking, spanking, a pimp slap for an attack, fighting gorrilas...this game has manly written all over it!
I think the head slicer was the original move that was supposed to be in the game. Japanese versions of games almost always censor decapitations of human(oid) characters, Ninja Gaiden being a good example.
Yeah, plus the thing I hate so much is that when those games which were originally sold in Japan ALWAYS have some "disgustingly-crappy" dubbed English voices when they are sold in other countries, rather than maintaining the same Japanese voices but with English subtitles. (e.g. Final Fantasy VII Advent Children)
Well, games such as DMC and Godhand are different though, because they already have English voices and fit so perfectly!
This is my biggest hate! I love stuff like Viewtiful Joe and God hand as they were designed with an American influence in mind and the voices are selected to suit. However when they dub over anime and RPGs with American it really makes me angry.
I do collect some manga - but reading is still very difficult. Brave Story - especially the new Brave Story Shinsetsu is my favourite right now, I saw the art on a big display in Shibuya and loved it straight away!
It was funny when I first saw Gene's "Onegaishimasu" at the start of Capcom's God Hand trailer - it's as if they're saying "PLEASE buy our game!!!" XD
Gamers these days feel insulted when they actually have to learn skills to become good at a game, they just want to sit there and win with zero effort. I find this attitude very tiring and I dont have time for it, this is why I use youTube instead of forums because I dont like talking to those types of people. We can share what we've found easily and "omoshiroi" people like yourself will come and watch.
Not many gamers seem to be willing to put a reasonable effort into games recently, especially when it comes to games that are of this kind, and say [Oh I don't like this game because it's difficult].
And I discovered that those from Europian background have tendencies to be in that way especially, because only games they mostly play are some kind of crappy racing games. Except some people who have genuine interest in this kind of Japanese games, just like you(^_^)
And as for forums, forums are likely to be "messed" badly because those people tend to keep on "spamming" complaints etc, trying to justify their point of views.
On the other hand, Youtube isnt necessarily like this, but so much more fun to share your findings etc because there are more open-minded people here:P We can get to know new people too!
I have to say that you've done an amazing job with this video. Not only only that, but you've been able to show many gamers and fans such as myself what can truely be achieved from the game.
I'm curious to know why through this demonstration why you use the frying pan from you God roulette most of the time untl the final bout. I'm interested as this selction was removed from the US and Uk versions.
The frying pan I find absolutely vital when things get very busy. It adds invincible frames to the opening animation of the following attack - see the way I'm using God Knuckle afterwards each time? Truth is because I'm using the pan first I'm in no danger of getting hit, this allows me to blast enemies away and stop them ganging up. I guess they removed it from the US version as the localisers only saw it as "quirky" Japanese humour and didnt bother to find out what it actually does.
I've been studying Japanese for years, I dont go to formal classes or anything - it's just self-study in my own time as a hobby. I really wanted to get out of this shithole country and live in Tokyo a while back but everything screwed up - I still study though.
It's very nice to hear you've been studying it all by yourself(^_^)
There must have been so much effort involved!
I'm Japanese btw, but I know how difficult it would have been, because I've been studying English for 5 years now(i.e. studying abroad as an oversea student), but my English isnt very good yet:P
And though I'm from Japan, I cant play DMC or Godhand like those Godlike players out there either:P
I think it's because I enjoy the Japanese language and society so much, I find learning new kanji characters especially a lot of fun. I realise how crazy and messed up English is aswell in the process, I can't imagine how difficult it must be to get used to the way our spelling and grammar work. Your English is very good DDSamurai - you write and spell better than most English people I see online! ;)
Because what often happens is that very majority of people hate learning Kanji characters, or perhaps start hating Japanese itself just because of those! (though they are derived from Chinese Characters:/)
And you'll be one of the few people who are enthusiastic in learning them, out of all people I've seen so far!
Pretty rare, but stick with it, because this enthusiasm is the key to get to higher level than staying ordinary!(^_^)
I still need a lot more to work on with my English because sometimes not-so-well-known grammar rules interrupt my progress.
But I've been enjoying learning English especially speaking, and thanks to that enthusiasm, I'm getting to be reasonably good at it & started being able to communicate with others more properly(^_^)
"As I get better at it, the world feels broader" if you know what I mean:P
"As I get better at it, the world feels broader" - definetly!
I wish I could have started when I was younger, at school the only language class offered was German which I have no interest in. I do feel I'm getting too old to change my life now - I feel like I was born in the wrong society, have missed out on too much and wasted my time! :D
Nah, wouldnt be too late! At least you can understand Japanese better than others:P
And I see [My right hand is GodHand] written in Japanese on your profile too! And that you play GodHand Japanese Version! Not many people would choose to do that even though they understand some Japanese:D
So keep up with it, and eventually you'll get there(>_^)
"I feel like I was born in the wrong society"
- Well, with your capability, you can pretend to be Japanese:P
That manga is classic! I love it!*grabs an orange*
Yeah see? You know about those mangas too, I bet you can read them in Japanese and understand what's happening too!
Oh by the way, since you've been learning Japanese, I believe you instantly understood the meaning of 'Onegaishimasu' which Gene says when you use God Dogeza (i.e. Grovel). Another Japanese Humor, eh?:P
This is a 2nd loop of the game. All moves are available in the shop you access between stages. I've only equipped God Knuckle as an extra and the most powerful "normal" versions of the standard setup.
If you keep betting on Lucky Clover in the dog races and do the Arena Battles you can have Gene fully kitted out with some nasty stuff after clearing the initial area.
I don't understand this video... in the NA version, on your second run through of the game, you don't get to keep all your moves. :/ Or am I only seeing the few moves you bought already, and the rest are the standard ones?
A cool video. I'm still in the middle of my first playthrough, so I haven't yet unlocked a lot of the moves you're using... Although all the cancelling has inspired me to practice more!
Thank you very much for that - it's made my day! Far too many games arent give a chance these days, purely due to it daring to damaging the fragile egos of the reviewers. It's all about what YOU bring to the table with stuff like this - and I feel gamers in general can bring FAR more to the table than the reviewers.
No it's not - they stupidly removed it from the English versions! It's a really useful move in that it adds invincible frames to the next attack. So what I'm doing here is blasting enemies away with the God Knuckle after the pan hit - even though the move is slow; Jean cannot be touched!
It's a little replay reward thing; you have to beat the game first. The moves are very expensive, but they allow you to whoop mass amounts of ass in a very short amount of time. ^_^
All Grovel does is reset the level back to Level 1. :/
Going through Hard Mode currently with a standard Jean - That's really tough going but I'm proper tearing my way through. I cant wait to finish Hard Mode so I can have this setup on the 2nd Hard runthrough, then it's PWNED! XD
is the first funy thing on jap version only?

ok, while im waiting on my ride to gamestop to show up, does anyone have any other recomendations for other games like this(action,fighting, skill based) im a huge fan of dmc1 dmc3 and The Boucer(games that actually require skill).
Erok9 4 years ago
Apart from Viewtiful Joe (vids on my channel) I can't think of anything else which can compare to this style of play. Bujingai has a really nice system for control but the game's level and enemy design are a complete mismatch to what you can unleash.

Finally i get to see the jap special where he gets a frying pan in the head. Nice! Probably just a small detail, but his name is Gene in the usa.. could it be a typo from your part? maybe more people can find it. Thanks for posting

Gamelvl84 4 years ago
I hadn't played the US version so was unsure of the correct spelling, I interpreted the Japanese katakana spelling as (Jeen - phonetically) so I spelt it "Jean".
Regardless - he pwns and you all pwn for knowing he pwns, aswell as the people around you pwning for knowing you pwn for knowing he pwns! XD

Oh... thats a lot of pwnage. No shame whatever the name he pwns us the same. Did capcom get lame? Who cares, godhand got made by clover and is will always be the one and the only, the game.

If you're a fan of fighting games, give Guilty Gear X2: Accent Core a try. It's not 3D, but it's incredibly fast and has a pretty high bar when it comes to skill.
For 3D, give Ninja Gaiden (XBox) and Shinobi (PS2) a try if you can find 'em. Ninja Gaiden is pretty similar to DMC1 if a bit less combo based. Shinobi is pretty different in that it relies on killing lots of enemies in a row to power yourself up for one slash, usually against a boss, as opposed to combos.

I remember that after keeping God Hand in my PS2 for 2 weeks and playing it a total of 45 hours, I tried to play Soul Calibur III... my gaming instinct was all God Hand so I was trying to use the right analog stick to dodge! XD

I think the head slicer was the original move that was supposed to be in the game. Japanese versions of games almost always censor decapitations of human(oid) characters, Ninja Gaiden being a good example.

JOHNWALL21 4 years ago
Yeah, plus the thing I hate so much is that when those games which were originally sold in Japan ALWAYS have some "disgustingly-crappy" dubbed English voices when they are sold in other countries, rather than maintaining the same Japanese voices but with English subtitles. (e.g. Final Fantasy VII Advent Children)
Well, games such as DMC and Godhand are different though, because they already have English voices and fit so perfectly!
DDSamurai 4 years ago
This is my biggest hate! I love stuff like Viewtiful Joe and God hand as they were designed with an American influence in mind and the voices are selected to suit. However when they dub over anime and RPGs with American it really makes me angry.

I do collect some manga - but reading is still very difficult. Brave Story - especially the new Brave Story Shinsetsu is my favourite right now, I saw the art on a big display in Shibuya and loved it straight away!
It was funny when I first saw Gene's "Onegaishimasu" at the start of Capcom's God Hand trailer - it's as if they're saying "PLEASE buy our game!!!" XD
Saur 4 years ago
Oh yeah, I've seen that big display as well! I haven't read much of it but it looks interesting(^_^)
Sadly there aren't many good mangas nowadays, getting a little ordinary, or being some kind of imitation of some other mangas in earlier age:(
I watched the trailer too, and you are right, it looks as if they want to say [I BEG YOU! Please! PLEASE BUY THIS GAME!!] LOL!
DDSamurai 4 years ago
But unfortunately, with this game, they didn't achieve a fame which they really should.
I see many people giving s**t about this game just because they cant make a progress due to its set difficulty.
But it's most likely because either they suck or aren't patient enough to keep trying & put enough effort into it.
I admit the difficulty is set very high, even on easy mode, but once we get through all those hardship, it gives so much more satisfaction!
DDSamurai 4 years ago
Gamers these days feel insulted when they actually have to learn skills to become good at a game, they just want to sit there and win with zero effort. I find this attitude very tiring and I dont have time for it, this is why I use youTube instead of forums because I dont like talking to those types of people. We can share what we've found easily and "omoshiroi" people like yourself will come and watch.
Saur 4 years ago
I totally agree with you!
Not many gamers seem to be willing to put a reasonable effort into games recently, especially when it comes to games that are of this kind, and say [Oh I don't like this game because it's difficult].
And I discovered that those from Europian background have tendencies to be in that way especially, because only games they mostly play are some kind of crappy racing games. Except some people who have genuine interest in this kind of Japanese games, just like you(^_^)
DDSamurai 4 years ago
And as for forums, forums are likely to be "messed" badly because those people tend to keep on "spamming" complaints etc, trying to justify their point of views.
On the other hand, Youtube isnt necessarily like this, but so much more fun to share your findings etc because there are more open-minded people here:P We can get to know new people too!
DDSamurai 4 years ago
I have to say that you've done an amazing job with this video. Not only only that, but you've been able to show many gamers and fans such as myself what can truely be achieved from the game.
I'm curious to know why through this demonstration why you use the frying pan from you God roulette most of the time untl the final bout. I'm interested as this selction was removed from the US and Uk versions.
Great video, keep up the amazing work.
shimsham6 4 years ago
The frying pan I find absolutely vital when things get very busy. It adds invincible frames to the opening animation of the following attack - see the way I'm using God Knuckle afterwards each time? Truth is because I'm using the pan first I'm in no danger of getting hit, this allows me to blast enemies away and stop them ganging up. I guess they removed it from the US version as the localisers only saw it as "quirky" Japanese humour and didnt bother to find out what it actually does.
Saur 4 years ago
I'm really happy to see someone who's playing God-Hand Japanese version(^_^)
At first I was wondering why you're using 'Suka'(miss) for so many times, but now I know why!
And now I'm using so often and thanks to you guys, it has become so much easier to make a progress!
Japanese Humor Rocks!!!! LOL
By the way, do you speak Japanese as a second language or something? Or did you figure out what they are by just playing it??
DDSamurai 4 years ago
Glad you're enjoying it ^^
I've been studying Japanese for years, I dont go to formal classes or anything - it's just self-study in my own time as a hobby. I really wanted to get out of this shithole country and live in Tokyo a while back but everything screwed up - I still study though.
Saur 4 years ago
Really??
It's very nice to hear you've been studying it all by yourself(^_^)
There must have been so much effort involved!
I'm Japanese btw, but I know how difficult it would have been, because I've been studying English for 5 years now(i.e. studying abroad as an oversea student), but my English isnt very good yet:P
And though I'm from Japan, I cant play DMC or Godhand like those Godlike players out there either:P
DDSamurai 4 years ago
I think it's because I enjoy the Japanese language and society so much, I find learning new kanji characters especially a lot of fun. I realise how crazy and messed up English is aswell in the process, I can't imagine how difficult it must be to get used to the way our spelling and grammar work. Your English is very good DDSamurai - you write and spell better than most English people I see online! ;)
Saur 4 years ago
Oh, glad to hear that(^_^)
Because what often happens is that very majority of people hate learning Kanji characters, or perhaps start hating Japanese itself just because of those! (though they are derived from Chinese Characters:/)
And you'll be one of the few people who are enthusiastic in learning them, out of all people I've seen so far!
Pretty rare, but stick with it, because this enthusiasm is the key to get to higher level than staying ordinary!(^_^)
DDSamurai 4 years ago
Stupid character limit(>_<)
I still need a lot more to work on with my English because sometimes not-so-well-known grammar rules interrupt my progress.
But I've been enjoying learning English especially speaking, and thanks to that enthusiasm, I'm getting to be reasonably good at it & started being able to communicate with others more properly(^_^)
"As I get better at it, the world feels broader" if you know what I mean:P
So my case is pretty much the same as yours(>_^)

"As I get better at it, the world feels broader" - definetly!
I wish I could have started when I was younger, at school the only language class offered was German which I have no interest in. I do feel I'm getting too old to change my life now - I feel like I was born in the wrong society, have missed out on too much and wasted my time! :D

Nah, wouldnt be too late! At least you can understand Japanese better than others:P
And I see [My right hand is GodHand] written in Japanese on your profile too! And that you play GodHand Japanese Version! Not many people would choose to do that even though they understand some Japanese:D
So keep up with it, and eventually you'll get there(>_^)

This is a 2nd loop of the game. All moves are available in the shop you access between stages. I've only equipped God Knuckle as an extra and the most powerful "normal" versions of the standard setup.
If you keep betting on Lucky Clover in the dog races and do the Arena Battles you can have Gene fully kitted out with some nasty stuff after clearing the initial area.

I don't understand this video... in the NA version, on your second run through of the game, you don't get to keep all your moves. :/ Or am I only seeing the few moves you bought already, and the rest are the standard ones?

LV99MasterMonk 5 years ago
No it's not - they stupidly removed it from the English versions! It's a really useful move in that it adds invincible frames to the next attack. So what I'm doing here is blasting enemies away with the God Knuckle after the pan hit - even though the move is slow; Jean cannot be touched!
Saur 5 years ago
How do you get Jean all powered-up like that? You have to hit Govel everytime or something?
Squishy69 5 years ago
It's a little replay reward thing; you have to beat the game first. The moves are very expensive, but they allow you to whoop mass amounts of ass in a very short amount of time. ^_^
All Grovel does is reset the level back to Level 1. :/
