What are you having trouble with?
I'm on the part right after you climb the windmill. You walk into the area and there is a chain and a closed gate leading somewhere. You climb the chain and then walk onto a grassy/concrete area. There are grates leading down into the place where the closed gate leads. On the other side of this grassy/concrete place, there is a drop into shallow water and if the drop is jumped across there is a large pipe. I'm not sure if this helps, but I REALLY feel stuck. If you can't figure out where I am, then I'll re-explain (hopefully more clearly).87th wrote:I think most of us are PS2 owners in the "alternate" crowd, so I think it's safe to say that we have.JimboKudo wrote:BTW, anyone else here played Ico, it's pretty hard, and I'm kinda stuck right now.

Lol, I could've guessed that you liked the game man. It's on your avatar.87th wrote:I've just completed GOD HAND for the first time. I really, really like the game. There's just so much that's great about it. Clover and Shinji Mikami have done a really great job of taking a long dead 2D genre and made a fantastic 3D game. Not only is this my favourite game from Clover, it's made my "top 5" games of all time. Some critics have been terribly harsh about the controls and the difficulty, while others (VideoGaiden) have suggested it's "one of the best games ever". I recommend that anyone who's interested should pick it up ASAP (after watching VideoGaiden's review on YouTube), as the eBay price will only increase over time.
Is that the astro boy game for ps2? I played a demo for it once, and it seemed like a pretty good game.87th wrote:I completed Astro Boy: Omega Factor last weekend. I gave up on it for a long time, as the game's not very fun after you beat the "World's Strongest Robots" (TM), so I used a FAQ and finished it in a couple hours. Good game overall, but the plot's fairly messy. Typical Treasure, really.

Hardcore Gaming 101 have a pretty comprehensive article on the game, that I recommend too (there's a couple of semi-spoilers, but you shouldn't worry about them).

If you buy it, I hope the problems with GOD HAND don't put you off the game. I wasn't sure about the controls when I started out (that's what put most people off the game), but as I got better at it I liked it more and more. Admittedly, my phase of "not being sure" about GOD HAND lasted about 3 minutes, then I was near euphoric about the mix of surreal comedy and incredibly OTT violence.
Thanks man, the articles really well written. (Now I gotta go use that 50 bucks lying around to buy it)Jim_Sensei wrote:I wrote that article87th wrote:I hope you don't have trouble with Scottish accents.

It gets far better in its second half. The action starts to show some depth at that point.Synthoid wrote:Yesterday, I picked up a copy of No More Heroes and I must say that I was amazed. The gameplay is pretty damn awesome, and genuinely entertaining too. It's stylish too, but I'm beginning to wonder if that's all there is to it.
