El Shaddai is awesome, mind blowing and features extremely artistic graphics. The game play is just ok, it's a bit simple and repetitive, but the storyline is interesting enough to keep you engaged.

A great game with a great mix of action & adventure.

This is a very unique, creative game with a great visual style. I'm really enjoying it!

From what I've seen so far El Shaddai is a breath of fresh air for all the gamers that love God Of War/DMC type of games. The art is so beautiful, the soundtrack is amazing and it leaves a good taste in the mouth after playing it. I do recommend for every fan of the genre and for any newcomers to it.

I was very intrigued by the unique graphics and the style of El Shaddai: Ascension Of The Metatron, which reminds me of Ookami. I like the gameplay where it involves both 3D and 2D in both exploration and battles. The story of this game is inspired by the apocryphal Book of Enoch, and follows Enoch, a priest seeking seven fallen angels to prevent a great flood from destroying mankind. He is helped in his quest by Lucifel, a guardian angel in charge of the protection of the world who exists outside of the flow of time, and by four Archangels: Michael, Gabriel, Raphael, and Uriel.

A fantastic game as of its originality, design levels & storyline. Controller play is kept basic & levels are beautiful graphically. There's a good variety of fighting & driving levels to keep you engrossed. There are a variety of weapons to attain as you progress, which are needed for ever growing stronger enemies & bosses. The final thing is the value from Zavvi, I got this along with Rayman Origins for a great price, including free p&p awesome!

It is definitely a good game, probably the most beautiful one I've ever played. It's really easy to control too. For me, it's a bit too short (6 hours from start to end), but if you are looking for something that isn't too complicated, or for a nice, fresh, new visual experience, then this is definitely it.

El Shaddai (Ascension of the Metatron) is a very good game overall. It tries many styles (both visual and gameplay), and some succeed more than others, but it's very recommended to try, specially with the low price. If you like hack n slash games/action games, or crazy story, or amazing graphics, give it a try!

Game reminds me of a simplified God of War , but with a unique art style and a crazy storyline. Certainly work a purchase if you find yourself itching for something that doesn't invloves soldiers with lots of guns.
