One Of The Best For The PS3
As said above this is one of the titles to get for the PS3 if your just getting the system. When I first got the game (when it came out!!) The graphic blew my mind, It was some of the best stuff I had seen on the ps3 (of the list of games on the console as of October 12 2008, It's still beats out *most* of them,Graphically)
Gameplay its similar to the Devil May Cry Series. Its fun, especially Kai's parts with the SixAxis controller. I did however encounter one problem with this gem. When I hooked up my optical sound system, the game installed somemore programs. After it did that in some parts of the game the frame rate would drop horribly! (The game froze once) The FR drop only happen 5 times. Maybe a Firmware update would solve it?
Enough of that tho. This game is a must have. There is only one thing stopping it from getting a 5 Star....LENGTH! Heavenly sword has it all except it's short..very short, 1st play through took me 7.5 Hours, 2nd time around 6 hours.
It's just too bad that Ninja Theory is not making a sequel (It was in the works for a trilogy, in fact they had the story all written up, but they decided to can the other 2 Heavenly swords due to interest in making multi-platform games. Because sony owns the rights to the name they *may* make a sequel, but as of now don't hold your breath for it. T_T)
Beautiful game
I've just started this game, but I'm really impressed so far. Beautiful graphics, interesting story, unique action all make for an engrossing game. The only con so far that I've noticed is the length load times, especially painful during a restart after your character gets killed and you're keen to get right back into the action. But I'd say that's a fairly minor drawback to a great game.
Outstanding!
This is an outstanding game. It's hard to praise too highly the design, complexity and detail of it. Not only is it a great deal of fun to play, it is also visually stunning, a really beautiful thing.
This game is worth getting. You will not be disappointed.
Amazing!
All I can say after playing this game in 720p for 3 hours is, you just have to try it and the ps3 will speak for itself! I have played alot of games on many different systems and this is by far, hands down the most amazing gaming experience I have ever had!!!! 10+
The Greatest PS3 game so far.
Heavenly Sword pushes the power of the PS3 to a new limit. I was amazed to see what my PS3 could do when I played that game. The graphics and the characters' facial expressions are sublime. The story board really gets you into the game, which is something we do not often these days with exeptions of the FF series. Games like this one really make a promising future for th PS3.
Excellent game!
