This was back when developers could take chances with games. I miss the ps2 era where you really had no idea what a game would be like and was often pleasantly surprised by how good a game was that only you and a few hundred people have played.
@@Dhampire1976 not really, games take longer to develop and aren’t as experimental as they used to. Sure indie games and lower budget titles can off those experiences on a smaller scale but most people aren’t spending too much money on games they never heard of.
I've been saying it for years: This is a legitimately solid PS2 game, even without the benefit of the franchise attached to it. For fans of GitS, it's got a great voice cast and a neat little story, as well. A lot of people are still sleeping on this one, which should keep the prices from becoming too insane... for now, anyway!
This game looks so nice. The sleek cyberpunk art style with the early 2000’s electronic music is just incredible, and the choreography does a fantastic job of making it feel so badass. Legitimately a great game.
This was so underrated, to me it strikes me as another case (Like God Hand for instance) where journalists didn't engage enough with the mechanics and wrote a middling review that kinda damaged a pretty good product. To me, this and Oni stands as some of the coolest forgotten gems.
@@charlottecorday8494 in their defense, they only have a week or two to play a game AND write a review. Unlike 2 hours movies it must be pretty tough to get them out on time.
One of those games I completely forget that I enjoyed so much! The music, traversal and voice acting were top notch, especially when compared with other anime licence games at the time.
Man, it's seriously a shame how Cavia got shafted so hard at every turn. The games they made seriously lacked from budget but they had some real dedicated passion put into them that makes them truly stand out.
Thing about that game I will always remember and do want in other games: The cool jump (or dodge if you like to call it that). Really. That jump just feels so damn good.
@@VergilHiltsLT Overall the 6th gen was impressive . The OG xbox brought sometimes visuals that are almost 7th gen quality . The ps2 had with its weak performance brought out the most impressive feats and games that made timeless classics especially in the visual-style aspects . That was truly the apex of gaming but sadly often the misjudged one about very underrated games with their deep mechanics and timeless visuals.
@@Snyperwolf91 6th gen had incredible art style, not just graphics. Modern generation rarely conveys so many messages as PS2 did with Silent Hill 2, 3 and 4, Ico, Shadow of the Colossus, Metal Gear Solid 2 and 3, Devil May Cry 1 and 3 with insanely complex gameplay (full 360 rotation, walking/running with analog stick, and various time-based combos. Truly an apex in gaming history. PS1 also had great games. I'm still playing all of them, of course.
I still can't deal with the fact that SAC came out when the PS2 was current gen. I refuse to believe that SAC, a series so far ahead of its time (still to this day) is almost as old as me. Also, I kid you not, if this game was released today in the exact same state (minus the graphics, obviously, those would be improved) it would be widely loved and hailed as a great game.
Yeah, me too. Brings back high school memories of the fansub days when only 1 guy was doing the translation of GitS SAC and I had to wait weeks for every episode to release.
I'm not a fan of anime, still not really into it, but got more into the genre after Stand Alone Complex, absolute masterpiece, the soundtrack is one of the best things i have ever heard, when people say Yoko Kano they mainly think of Cowboy Bebop, but shit... Spotter may be the best OST ever made for like... anything ever honestly, can't think of a game or movie with a better song, i have it (and Evangelion even if I'm not that big into it anymore) to thank for making me get into stuff like FLCL and Mob Psycho 100.
I bought this game because I was really into Ghost on the Shell, and played through it just once, there isn't much about this game to suck you in to replay it. Looking back, I wish the developers had leaned more into the superhuman moving and fighting aspects of the game rather than the "run & gun a bit of clunky platforming". The following generation of consoles gave us Mirror's Edge, which would be a terrific point of reference for a Ghost in the Shell game.
10:40 The Buffy the Vampire Slayer game for the Original Xbox is really good at accurately portraying Buffy's canon power level within the game. Buffy's increased strength and combat ability only put her at a level with her supernatural foes and its one of those combat systems where basically everything you can do to the enemy, they can also do to you - if anyone plays it I definitely recommend playing it on the hard difficulty. It's a really underrated, really really good beat-em-up game with some occasional horrible platforming.
The devs actually made an Indiana Jones game with the same engine (Emperor's Tomb), while I've only played it, I have heard people say it ends up being similar to buffy in the melee.
If you're talking about the _first_ Buffy game on Xbox (Not the "Chaos Bleeds" one), did you know that there was a 2-player option? If you have two controllers, a friend can control the enemies. It can be a lot of fun, and if you're playing Buffy you control the camera - Which can lead to hilarious frustration...
Walked in gamestop randomly in like 2005 & i think this game was like $20 or sumn. Never been a heavy gamer but i loved watchin gits late night on adult swim so i copped it. One of the best shooters ive ever played but the overall ambience of the game was sick. Felt like i was playing the anime 😂
You should try out Bullet Witch, which was made by the exact same team. It's a lot less polished and a lot more, well badly designed, but it's definitely an interesting experiment about Cavia trying to profit off that early 2000s DMC/Bloodrayne angst (even tho Drakengard would have been perfect for that) and there's some fun to be had from its jankiness
I’m positive I’ve searched for the watch order for Ghost in the Shell like 3 times, gotten three different suggestions, and then never sat down to try and get into it 😅
Watch the movie, then the 2nd movie Innocence. Stand Alone Complex is basically an alternate version of the world with slight changes but the same characters. It's still very good. I can't speak for those post-SAC series since I heard they sucked and never watched them. What might confuse you about Stand Alone Complex is that there are two movies that are just compilations of the two seasons of the show. Solid State Society is the only original SAC movie.
You have to force yourself to watch Ghost in the shell the first movie. Than force yourself to watch stand alone complex part 1 and part 2 Don’t expect an emotional roller coaster, it’s more of a Vibe. To me where the show really shines is to put it on late at night and enjoy its scenery and world building.
This game, I love it. Played the demo back in the day and it stuck with me for a long time (didn't even bother to notice it's name. because childhood mentality.) but I never found it again. The HUD and everything all looked so modern back then, it made the game so cool
Thank god for another video. I love you voice main. Mainly watch while eating and its so relaxing. Id wish u publish more often but still enjoying your content:)
I was also going to recommend taking a look at Bungie's forgotten GitS-inspired game, Oni, but now I see you noticed someone else asking for the same review... I'm glad you took notice, I think that game'll be right up your alley 🙂.
I bought and played this during lockdown and I loved it. It's up there as one of my favourite PS2 games. As a DnB and sanodg fan the soundtrack is music to my ears and it's the main reason why I decided to check the game out in the first place.
Your reviews are such a fresh air! Especially compared to those "worst tie in game everrrr????" negative reviews I used to binge years ago. I pretty much stopped watching game reviews (there's only so many ways of shitting on action 52, it's all recycled stuff by now) but have been enjoying your stuff for a few years now and it's so chill to watch a positive yet critical video on games I've never even heard of
That was my first game on the ps2 when i bought it, for the time was the best game i've ever played coming from ps1 slim. It brings me back memories and the best thing about this game is the split screen.
Played all the GitS games since I adore that series. While I think the original PS1 game is probably the most fun overall, this one was also quite good and really felt like an episode of SAC. Really cool you did a video on it! Edit: Note about that PSP game. I remember having to cheat in order to complete it? I'm not sure if I was just missing something or not, but while it's mostly not an awful game, it's definitely the least good of the single player GitS games.
I loved this back when it was new. The music, the animation, the gameplay being very fun once you get the hang of the quirky controls. I remember the X-Play review literally calling it "crap". The same devs went on to make BulletWitch for the Xbox 360. BulletWitch was less polished than this, but it was way more ambitious with large open levels with tons of physics objects that could be moved around with spells.
I remember that X-Play rubbish. They complained about how terrible the jumping mechanics were - But later, when _Tomb Raider Underworld_ used almost the exact same system, could stop talking about how inventive and original it was. I had the game and their review completely destroyed their credibility for me...
I rented this game like 5 times back in the day. I didn't even like playing it all that much but I loved the 2nd Gig series airing at the time and the vibes of the game.
With you enjoying this game I fully recommend Peripeteia on steam. There's a demo out right now and it feels massive. Feels a lot like GitS, from music to aethestics. Its super free in how you play and you really can do absolutely whatever you want with traversal
Man watching this gameplay back… I played so many hours of this game. Doing every difficulty and getting all the different skins. Forgot about the hacking! The last battle was great too! Flawed but great! Would love to see a remake
Honestly I think if they did a modern GitS:SAC video game with proper funding and a decent studio (platinum I think could do a good job at this) they could do some absolutely stunning things in it.
I had a ps2 demo/trailer disc that had extended game play trailers of a bunch of games, and this was one of the trailers I always wish I could have the game for, yet have never once seen it in store
I have this game and even though I beat it at least twice, I still go back and have another go at it. I agree with you on some of the points you mentioned, but all in all, it's a fun action game :)
Love this dude. Even when he has something negative to say, he focuses on the positives while doing it. He should be present during peace talks in the middle east or something.
I loved that you covered this game after such a long time of seeing it mostly being ignored. I notoced that you didnt really use the dodge mechanic in any of the footage. Making me wonder if you noticed it, as its really finnicky about when it works.
Totally agree, this game is a blast. I just wish Motoko's character model resembled her appearance in the anime more closely and that the story was told better. I notice you didn't even mention the multiplayer which was also pretty good for the time.
Oh wow, I've 100% forgotten about this one. I still have it in a box somewhere. Maybe I should dig it up and see if I still enjoy it as much as I remembered doing.
Dear sony, you just bought Square Enix, and thus Deus Ex. Please use that team to make this. Or just pull a duke nukem bullet storm and reskin adam jensen as the major!

Good retrospective video. I never knew there was a game based on the anime
Stand Alone Complex was a great anime. I somehow missed this game back in the day! So thank you for covering it! Great video as always :)
