"Ride or El-Shadai" No no that's good, go with that.
-
I once wrote a high school, 5-paragraph-essay on why I hate 5-paragraph-essays for a teacher who literally said that as long as we write something down, we wouldn't get a 0. I got a 0.
-
"Shaddai harder" IM DYING LMAO
-
Believe it or not, when this game came out in Japan, you could buy the jeans Enoch is wearing in the game. What an obscure piece of merch...👖
-
They could’ve just called it Ascension of the Metatron.
-
I literally ONLY played ICO because a GameStop employee I was on good terms with told me it was MUST PLAY. Even then, I didn't believe him, but I bought it because it was cheap used, as nobody wanted it, and they also had a 7 day return policy. Needless to say, he was right and I'm grateful I experienced it at a time when it was more or less state of the art.
-
The name of the this game has been mentioned during a scientific lecture at the Collège de France to show that yes the niche interest of the biblical scholars in the room does influence media at times.
-
I got so excited when you revealed the game was El Shaddai Ascension of the Metatron. Literally said aloud " yes finally someone else played the game too".
-
Okay, while "El-Shadai: Ascension of the Metatron" is a mouthful, at least it isn't "Kingdom Hearts 0.2: Birth By Sleep: A Fragmentary Passage".
-
El Shaddai: Ascension of the Metatron is spin off of The Book of Enoch which is basically an ancient fanfic.
-
This man has no taste. "Ascension of the Metatron" goes hard.
-
″‘Oh dear,’ said Aziraphale. ‘It’s him.’ ‘Him who?’ said Crowley. ‘The Voice of God,’ said the angel. ‘The Metatron.’ The Them stared. Then Pepper said, ‘No, it isn’t. The Metatron’s made of plastic and it’s got a laser cannon and it can turn into a helicopter.‘” - Good Omens
-
I just Shadai'd my pants.
-
You could call a game assblaster and it will sell good. Artsy games just have it harder.
-
Heroes Get Remembered, Legends Never El Shaddai.
-
“The Bird of Hermes is my name, eating my wings to make me tame.” Alucard is the representation of the Philosopher Stone.
-
You either el shaddai a hero, or live long enough to see yourself become the metatron.
-
2:29 This sounds like a 3 episode OVA from 1996 that you find buried at the bottom of a bargain bin in a closing Best Buy.
-
Austin Powers and the El Shadai Who ascended me
-
Oh man, I remember telling my adult cousin about this game when I was a teenager and explaining the story and the meaning of the title and he paused after I was finished with a blank look on his face and asked me "...and this is a game? That you play?"
