Daibijin, The (Playstation 2)

(Available in Japan only) Harkening back to the 1958 cult B-movie sci-fi classic "Attack of the Fifty Foot Woman", TamSoft has created Thh Daibijin, which translates to "Giant Beauty." 17-year-old, bikini-clad Riho Futaba has grown to a B-movie-esque 48 meters in height and has her sights (and the beams emanating from her hands) set on attacking Japan. As a member of the country's Self Defense Force, use tanks, helicopters, planes and other toys to stop this diva while attempting to discover a way to reduce her to normal human proportions.

The game is vaguely playable and there is a certain aesthetic charm (when the game engine isn’t dying on its arse) but it is still a particularly dire and tedious game for the majority of its bizarrely brief existence. In summation, The Daibijin is gaming trash and should be avoided at all costs. [JPN Import]
