#GUNGRAVE OVERDOSE OST FULL#

The game sacrifices graphical quality for action. After watching one of the slightly awkward anime-like CG sequences, players are thrown into a chaotic cacophony of cartoonish violence – the sort which hasn’t been seen since the first Gungrave saw release. Overdose is a bit overwhelming for the first few minutes. All three character designs are completely ridiculous, as is the storyline itself, but that’s where the charm in this game is! Overdose rarely takes itself too seriously, and the emotional moments present tend to be countered by an equally silly concept or event soon thereafter. He’s happy-go-lucky, talkative, and doles out death with a spiritually-charged electric guitar. Rocketbilly Redcadillac was originally a ghost haunting a guitar, later brought to physical being by Kabane. Juji Kabane is a blind undead soldier with a strong aversion to Seed and not much else to his back story. Along with Grave are two new playable characters. Brought back to life by the Necrolization Project, Grave may be ready for action, but this came at a steep price: The loss of all memory and emotion. Gungrave: Overdose is the story of Beyond the Grave, a resurrected killer, and his battle against the spread of a dangerously addictive drug known as Seed. Overdose is not without flaws, but the overall experience is something many developers have been trying for, but never achieved. This is the psychotic action game Rockstar wishes they could develop.

Gungrave: Overdose hit stores with a full English translation, dubbed voice acting, and fantastic eye-catching packaging (with the exception of the badly written screenshot descriptors on the back). Months after Sega should have buckled down and given the new Gungrave a go, perhaps with a little promotion this time, the staff of gaming heroes over at Mastiff came in to save the day. Was its retail failure due to Sega’s idiotic decision to forgo almost any level of promotion for the game whatsoever, ignoring the inherent marketability of a character as well designed as leading man Beyond the Grave? Or perhaps the obvious market, Trigun fanatics newly christened by the appearance of the show on Cartoon Network’s Adult Swim lineup, wanted the damned proper Trigun game Planet Gunsmoke to release one of these days, wanting the title so badly that to play a game with such a similar concept would be more torture than pleasure for the poor fanboys? Or, most likely, a combination of these two maladies? Either way, Gungrave did not sell, Sega refused to release the highly anticipated sequel, and fans of both the publisher and the game were left with nothing but an empty feeling (a feeling not uncommon for a fan of this publisher. Stupid business decisions have knocked the once venerable development house into what even the most ardent fanboys can only refer to as the nadir of the corporation.Ī game like Gungrave should have been able to sell itself but I guess when a game has been localized by Sega, it is bound to run into some trouble. Perhaps the first game’s publisher, Sega, really is cursed. This all occurred despite the above average level of anticipation for the game in the enthusiast community, and the fact that the character designs were handled by the same team as the breakout anime hit of the day, Trigun. debut to a bout of cricket noises followed by a drop to bargain bin prices by retailers everywhere.
