It almost got violent, but finally the debate is over. Paste Magazine and its platoon of game reviewers have crafted the definitive list of the 20 best videogames of 2011.
VGChartz's Evan Norris: "Presenting El Shaddai: Ascension of the Metatron to a new audience and preserving it for future generations is a great thing, especially considering its cult status. Whether that audience will enjoy it is another matter entirely. Due to its cryptic storytelling, repetitive combat, and clumsy platforming, it doesn't quite escape the orbit of mediocrity. Still, there's a lot to admire, including exciting boss battles, impressive production design, and powerful music. If nothing else, it's an ambitious game with a singular vision. And that's something to celebrate."
Its a pretty cool game. i have the 360 version but Id buy the switch to play on the go.
"The Tokyo-based (Japan) indie games developer crim Co., Ltd., today announced with gret joy and thrill that their unique third-person action adventure "El Shaddai: Ascension of the Metatron HD Remaster", is now available for the Nintendo Switch via the Nintendo Eshop." - Jonas Ek, TGG.
It's good to see this legend get a second chance.
