Then it comes back, and the guy laughs, and flies away. It at one point switches locations with a woman collapsed near a jet. The other guy is in the air, with a sigil around his jet-wings, and they chat for a minute, about something. Just a heads up on looks, they are both mech-like characters, although the protagonist is more human. He looks up, panting, and sees (Who I believe to be) the antagonist, or his brother. It starts off with the main character falling from the sky onto a port, slamming into a lightpost. Note, there was no english subtitles, so I have no clue what anyone was saying. But I want to know.did the game ever get finished, or was it dropped? The demo was fully voiced in japaneese, so I suppose only Japan has the game.

I've tried looking for the full game before, but all I find are searches related to car parts. The game I want more infomation on is Chain Drive. It was like a compilation of things to come, and such.
Chaindive game ps2#
Recommended to fans of retro 2D action, frantic, chain combo-based action, and specifically the PS2 Shinobi game.I remember this one game demo I had, when there was a magazine that gave out discs along with their magazines.

But this is an action game.Įven in Japan, I've only seen this game on shelves once, but it was only around 15 dollars and I don't think it's actually rare. The story is inane and 100% negligible, and is delivered through ugly still shots and run-of-the-mill voice acting. In case you decide you'd rather be snowboarding halfway through. To spice things up a little, Chain Dive features a number of boss fights, which aren't half bad, as well as some random stuff like a snowboarding level. The game feels a little similar to the best moments of the Spiderman 2 game, in that you can freefall (dive), snap up at the last second, and repeat, as much as you like, and with that comes a great sensation. The trick is to kill as many enemies as possible without touching the ground.

Once frozen, enemies work just like hookup points, except that when you connect your chain to them, you can snap yourself into them and shatter them.

To fight them, you slash them with your wing-like sword, which turns them into blocks of ice (for some reason). Additionally, just about all enemies are airborne. It is possible and probable for you to go through entire stages without ever touching the ground, as you can propel yourself indefinitely using these hookup points. You can whip out your chain, which has an elasticky kickback that will propel you through the air. Levels are peppered with glowing hookup points not unlike those found in Castlevania Order of Ecclesia. As the title denotes, gameplay is composed largely of two activities: chaining and diving. Stages are presented on a 2.5-D plane, a la Wild 9 or Magical Hoppers (or something people have heard of).

I've never seen anything else about it on the web, save for the YouTube videos ( ), which contain most of the game in its entirety.Ĭhain Dive is a pseudo-retro action game where you play as a cyborg ninja with an aerodynamic double-blade (almost like a hang-glider) and some sort of electronic laser chain. Well, the PS2 Hidden Gems article is finally up, much to everyone's delight, and it got me thinking about Chain Dive, which is a truly hidden gem.
