God Hand is a fully 3D Beat 'em Up game made exclusively for the Playstation 2 by Clover Studio, a division of Capcom that's unfortunately officially dissolved this year. Luckily, their legacy continues and a new group is born — Seeds.

Basically, God Hand is a purposely straightforward game where you punch and kick people non-stop from start to end. Imagine Tekken not as a fighting game but an action game, and exclude the jumping. That, generally, is God Hand. The battle system is combo-based, similar to Devil May Cry though in a very different and unique fashion. This should prove intriguing to most action gamers.

God Hand isn't your average Beat 'em Up. It is ball-bustling hard, as the game/creators themselves admit, and can be challenging to the point of frustration...sometimes. But wait. You must experience the taste of victory; it's more than just satisfying...

God Hand's retail price is much lower than most brand new PS2 games, except for Japan where everything is as expensive as could be. Even then, God Hand's retail price in Japan should have lowered by now. In any case, this should be a good excuse why you should get one for yourself.
