Looks like those should be tied to Marathon

I'm going to let you all finish but God Hand is the best PS2 game of all time. Yes even over Zone of the Enders 2.

It's certainly fun, but maybe it isn't even the best game of its month (didn't check), considering how many good games were coming out back then.

A friend and me both discovered this game by chance back then, we had a lot of fun playing it and funny enough we didn't even realize we could use the powerups, we only stayed in the techniques screen, so we beat the majority of the game without upgrading stuff until the very last part of the game, when it was hard as fuck, and we were being destroyed easily, then all of a sudden we now had like triple the HP bar to work with lol.

God Hand is the best PS2 game period. I love Okami and all but I'd be for Okami 2 being canned and getting God Hand 2 instead. Tho I guess we did get Okamiden and while not a sequel to God Hand, has some things about it from God Hand in Anarchy Reigns. 

Seems like Okami is from April 2006 and God Hand from September 2006, going by their NA releases it would be September for Okami and October for God Hand, but then we have Bully in October 2006... so yeah, not even close to being the best game from its month, at least in NA, Bully is one of the best games ever.

Sadly Wikipedia list mostly only consider the NA releases, maybe it was the best game released in September 2006 considering its original JP release date, but that will be hard to check.

It is a good game and a lot of fun, I always liked it and I was surprised most people didn't even know about it considering how fun it is, but it is at least two tiers or so behind the best PS2 games, I would never compare it to Bully, neither Okami, personally.

Okami 2 getting cancelled? Now lets not put bad vibes into the air!!

Now that we know almost every Xbox game will eventually make its way to Playstation I'm especially excited for their next Developer Direct. Fable used to be one of my favourite *WRPGs* . There's a chance it could be day and date on Playstation like Halo, but given how intense Q4 is looking next year, I wouldn't be suprised if MS are extra comfortable launching on Playstation early 2027 to avoid Wolverine and GTA6

Good point. They do absolutely fit the vibe and color scheme for the game.

I wonder if SNY is worried enough about Marathon that they figured if they market the covers and controllers as their own RGB thing, that if by chance Marathon gets bad reviews and is quite disliked by gamers and sells poorly or tanks, that the covers and controllers will still be viable. Launch them both around the same general time frame, but not so close together that it's obvious they're supposed to go together. If Marathon works out and sells well or is a hit, it would be relatively easy for SNY to suggest these covers and controllers as a great addition to the Marathon gaming crowd.

hmm if Marathon gets one I'm pretty sure it'll be a single plate design.

That said, I do like the idea that they'd release 3 brand new colours connected to the game.
