A fun short arcade style romp with a ton of replay value. It's very forgiving and plays almost like a cross between Max Payne and God Hand. The aesthetics are peak mid ps2 era vibes. I wouldn't be surprised if someone made a handful of breakcore songs based off the soundtrack either.
I was surprised at how well they pulled off stylish third person shooting without copying Max Payne. The only complaint I have is the one healing boss and the absolutely atrocious camera angles, but ps2 games are required by law to have terrible camera angles.

Monoton, kurzweillig und erzählerisch kein Überflieger, aber dafür stylisch, actiongeladen und eine tolle Form von "Easy to learn, Hard to master".
Gungrave hat neben seinen super stumpfen und einfachen Gameplay dennoch eine gute Form der Herausforderung, dank einfachen und kompakten Levels, guten Gegnerplacement und einige Bosse, die gutes Timing verlangen und erfordern. Manche Leute würden sagen, es wäre das "perfekte 7/10 Videospiel", doch für mich ist Gungrave weitaus mehr, als eine 7/10. Es mag sein, dass der Nachfolger das Gameplay sehr entschlackte und einige coole neue Ideen einfügte, doch finde ich das Feedback und das Pacing im ersten Teil weiterhin als die bessere Erfahrung. HIer mehrere Playthroughs zu machen, ist dank der Spielzeit von gerade mal 2 Stunden, leichter auszuführen und viele Workarounds bei kniffeligen Stellen, werden schneller erlernt. Mir gibt Gungrave eher das Gefühl, eines Arcade Titels der 2000er, welche eine simple Idee nimmt und alles damit macht, was möglich ist.
Bottom Line: Ein klassisches Eric-Spiel, welches möglicherweise nicht jeden gefallen wird, aber für Freunde von kurzweiliger und spaßiger Action, genau der perfekte Fang ist.
Und es ist besser, als der peinliche Versuch, welcher 2022 mit Gungrave Gore versucht wurde.

To whoever was in charge of the audio mixing, I hope your ears are ok.
The game is fine, I only played it because Gungrave (anime) is one of my favorites, and I rewatch it sometimes. It is short and doesn't flesh out the characters that much, so I would just recommend watching the anime instead.
the sewer level reminds me of st. anger
fantastic little game. brain off.. only shoot.

Don't let the score fool you, this game was better than alright, BUT I know this shit was $50 when it came out and I would be pissed if I bought this since I finished it in less than 90 minutes.
Took a few stages for the game to click for me. It's a fun arcade game with 6 stages, the boss fights being the highlight. Half my playtime was on the last 3 bosses alone, tough but fun.
Loved the music, which is probably done by the Trigun guy? The whole game feels like it mutated from a Trigun project with the people involved. Just wish it had more meat to it for the price.

probably the loudest game of all time
A bizarro good version of DMC2
Holy based batman !
i came in barely expecting anything, but i found some pretty shiny gold, its short and sweet, its action packed, its a whole explosion of rule of cool, zero BS, zero gimmick, its short because its straight to the point, it won't deviate from gameplay and try to deliver what it promises right from the get go, it helps that its so fuckin cool.
also it should definelly be ported to steam, i forced 60 fps with 1080p and had a blast, this holds up surprisingly well.
for those wishing to try it on mouse and keyboard, here are my configs :
W,S : forth and back
A,D : turn left and right
Mouse 1 : shoot
mouse 2 : lock in (great to use when you gotta circle strafe a enemy)
E : grave sweep
Shift : run.
again i wish this was ported to steam, but emulating is still amazing in its own way
