This time, they thought they were ready for anything the Gantz
could throw at them. They were wrong. The third horrifying
game rips into the resurrectees, decimating their ranks as
wave after wave of deadly opponents exact their bloody toll.
No one is spared, no one is safe, and for any of the players
to survive, one of their number will have to make the ultimate
sacrifice. And even then, it may all be for nothing...
For
this release I'm going to break with tradition. There's very
little point in me breaking down the review by episode - because
to be quite honest very little happens. So I'll just give
a quick summary of the basics.
Confronted
by the red and green giant statues, the team have to fight
for their lives. And when a few, smaller statues come to life,
several of the un-suited players realise that they can beat
them without any problem. Once
that threat is over a number of other statues come to life
- including a big bad boss that seems impossible to kill.
Then, when you think everything is going to end well, tragedy
strikes and all of a sudden our world is turned upside down.
And
that, in a nutshell, is it. In all honesty these four episodes
could easily have been spread over two parts. One of the biggest
problems (and I've mentioned this before in previous volumes)
is the fact that when confronted by a deadly enemy, or the
need to act quickly to save one of their team, all they do
is stand around talking rubbish or shouting at each other.
Extras
are, as ever, thin on the ground. All we get is a Gantz
music video; textless opening and closing titles and some
trailers.
Gantz
fans will probably wish that the action had been a little
slicker, and the pointless shouting and arguing cut to a minimum.
Otherwise, this is another entertaining, and quite shocking,
release. It's also a shame that I'm going to have to wait
for two months for the next release - curse those nail-biting
cliff-hangers.
