Bought God Hand about a week ago. Very addicting and IGN earned their Eternal Bullshit award for giving it a 3/10. The game has frustrating moments because everyone gangs up on you and there are random demons popping up that make your life miserable, but having such a wide array of attacks that you can try out on hilarious bad guys make up for it.

Good on ya. It's an innovative take on the beat-em-up that completely focuses on the fighting, as any beat-em-up should. The game is very hard, but not frustratingly hard and if you die, it's almost always your own fault. That is some quality difficulty. It's the last really difficult game I stuck through to the end and it was a great reassurance to know I could still beat hard games (after Shinobi and Ninja Gaiden from a few years back).
I've been playing through
Crackdown. If anyone is interested... I would advise a rent. What you've heard about not much to do is true. I started it up Saturday and will be done with it by tomorrow. That's with doing plenty of the side stuff. I suppose if you have a friend to play with on Live! it could be the blast everyone is blowing it for. And it IS fun. But like Gears of War for me, once I finish it, I'm done with it. I wish I hadn't payed full price. Guess I'll be turning it in on Wednesday for some solid credit towards something else.
Jam it back in, in the dark.
