"El Shaddai: Ascension of the Metatron" resurfaces

ARCHANGEL METATRON WATCH: A Divine Struggle: 'El Shaddai: Ascension of the Metatron' Is One Of The Great PS3 Games You've (Probably) Never Played (Marlon McDonald, MoviePilot). This game has been out for several years and there are many past posts on it. (Start here and follow the links.) But this belated review is especially enthusiastic and thorough, so it seemed worth noting.
But, in my honest opinion, there is one game on this awe-inspiring and intimidating history-spanning list that manages to justify PS Now's odd pricing model. A modern day classic that manages to encapsulate the utterly unique beauty of the Japanese imagination, with the apocryphal thrills of the Old Testament's Book of Enoch.

A game that received unanimous critical praise, but suffered a lack of sales more than likely due to it being completely one of a kind.
Cross-file, as usual, under Old Testament Pseudepigrapha Watch.
