Demo Impressions: El Shaddai The Ascension of Metatron (This Is My Joystick)

The game is developed by Ignition Entertainment, who have also brought us such classics as Deadly Premonition and, er, Tornado. It isn’t due out on our fair shores of Blighty until the 9th September, but there’s a demo gracing the annals of Xbox LIVE and PlayStation Network.

The main menu feels decidedly Devil May Cry, which is expected since the dev lead is the man behind the design of Dante, Takeyasu Sawaki. He is also responsible for much of the enemy design, which might explain the frankly bizarre nature of El Shaddai’s cast of villains. -

Like the comment on the site said, it is completely insane. I loved it.
