this game rocks in my opinion . although it does have a few flaws. the game is short, has no replay value, and all u do is shoot to kill. but the game has very unique graphics like a cross between anime and devil's may cry. the playability and control is good . so unless u like anime and a "kill them and nuthing else" type of game, i suggest renting it period.

MADNESS

If you love the simplicity of destroying everything in your sight, then this is the game for you. No need to think, just destroy. If you like tight graphics along with Anime, this is a definite buy. Again, this game gives you the simple things some of us enjoy, destruction.

good but kinda short

this game is pretty fun with insane action and cool graphix but it's to dam short and also too easy. it's no big deal to beat it on kick ...(hardest difficulty). when ever you die then you just start a couple of footsteps before where you died and now you are armed with another demolition shot and full health and armor. they should have at least made some kind of lives limit of something. but this game is still good.

INSANE!

This Game IS FUN!!! Its for the people who hate having to worry about running out of ammo. The Demolition shots are a great addition, on top of that you can use up your demo-shots for health. Just be prepared, your trigger finger will be sore. I actually had a bruise cause i beat it 4 times in one night. You get little goodies everytime you beat the game in the Extras section. I suggest renting it not buying.

I love the game but its goin straight to ebay!

just fun...

this game is nothing more than an insane death march of pure mindless fun. there aren't any puzzles or tricks (like say ICO) nor does it offer slow paced strategic action (for example the mark of kri or way of the samurai). rather, gungrave focuses on good graphics and non-stop action. it is definately worth playing if you enjoy action games. if action isn't your cup of tea then your you'll probably want to avoid gungrave.

Gungrave is not good

If you like to dress up as japanese anime characters and hang out at a convention center then by all means throw down fifty bucks, but for anyone wanting a good playable video game. Run away. This game looks great and has all the visuals down including all the john woo esque gunplay. However, the gameplay is nonexistent. You could beat this game with your feet, all you do is press one button over and over and over and over until everything dies. You're pretty much impervious to damage, which is good since you move slower than one of those veritech fighters in that bad robotech game. Your choice.

Gungrave is a very big step up for video gaming

Gungrave is enticing even from the cover art. The controls are simple, the style is original and never fades, and the genius behind the ever-famous anime Trigun has done it again.
Beyond the Grave was formerly a syndicate employee who got the short end of the stick for being the "goody-goody" that he was.
After a ressurection followed by some genetic mutation Grave seeks revenge for EVERYTHING that has happened to his life.
His best friend is now his arch nemesis.

Grave is packing more than could be imagined (thanks to the wonders of anime) and will destroy everything and everyone in his path for the greater good.
The anime cell animation and CG combination looks astonishing and very fresh while the 3D environments are destructible as well.
A counter system is introduced for style, and the extras (recieved once passing the game with a certain rank) are worth passing the game for.
A very big step up for video games and very entertaining.

Also recomended: Trigun. On VHS and DVD.

What a let down!!

This is a good idea wasted. The creator should have put more time into the game play. Just simply blowing up things is brainless. A waste of a cool looking anti-hero. What is up with the 6 little levels. I finished this game in one day. Major letdown.

Shoot!!! Shoot!!! Shoot!!!

This game is one of the coolest games I'd ever seen on the PS2. It has stylish Cel-Shaded graphics, a cool main character, and brutal, insane, out of control action. This is a game no one should miss as it is incredibly original, even if it is just shooting. The one major con about this game is it is on 30 minutes long. After that it's over. The end. However you do unlock new features. The game's prob worth playing more than once because it is entertaining. So rent it. If you love it and somehow get addicted to it, buy it. Avoid the M rating and the back of the box because the game is easily worthy of bearing the T rating and has nothing more objectionable than your average arcade shooter. It also has a blood off feature on the options menu which is originaly turned off when you first pop in the game. Enough said, check this one out.
