godlike

godlike
Although it's not a word out of nowhere (heck, even KMFDM have a song by the title), in this context it means really nifty, really cool.
Often used with the adverb inherently.
The line For in truth, you are godlike came from, I think, the Homeric hymns.

I got the most godlike CD today.
