Heavenly Sword is

Never heard of this game until I saw it on sale the other day which I couldn't even buy cause it was soldout:( Anyways it looks fun but I would like some fellow gamers opinions on the matter. I recently thrashed Demon's Souls to about SL220 so I am looking for a new slasher type of game and am wondering if this one will suffice?

It's alright. Very short, shallow combat, but still enjoyable. I'd only recommend it if it's cheap, as there are other, better action games in the market (Bayonetta, Ninja Gaiden 1+2, Devil May Cry 4, God of War 3).

yeah it was alright but all those other options are better really. I would even take DMC4 over heavenly sword it it was disappointment but still fun for awhile. I highly suggest picking up Bayonetta. Its basically what DMC4 should have been and is def one of the best games of this year. I found GOW stale. It has great action but i found the actual gameplay to be boring. NG2 is great if your looking for a extremely challeneging game.

If you could get all do it but if you had to pick one for now def Bayonetta.

Very good game, solid combat, definitely way better story than the nonsense you find in Bayonetta, Ninja Gaiden and DMC, way better voice acting than you find in those games too and it has spectacular animations. Its short, but it works in its favor, a number of hack n slash games. DMC4 being a prime example, attempt to artificially stretch the game and it does more harm than good. Its a very good game, I would definitely recommend it. Sepewrath

there is for all of them. well im not sure about DMC4 but there probably one for that too. i think you should get a good idea of what to get that way.

I still haven't played this yet. But I really want to, it looks so good. I played the demo and I loved it. Going to get it soon.

Good game, however to short for 60$ value it was selling when it came out.

For around 20$ today, it's a good buy.

I think it's bad cause it's kinda repetitive and the graphics are unpleasent for me. God of war is better for me.

Ty all for your responses:) It's demo time!

It's like "Dark Sector" - A game to buy when it gets under $10... fun action, and i liked it better than "Bayonetta". All of that sexual stuff was a bit embarrassing to me, honestly. I'm not a prude, I like gettin' to it like any living male... but it (the sexual inuendo & exhibitionism in "Bayonetta") was a distraction and a reminder of how lecherous, panderous, and anti-socialwe are, supposedly, as gamer-guys. Gotta admitI like the librarian glasses. My girl wears 'em. It's a weakness for me.

:lol:

But yes, try the demo (Heavenly Sword) and you might dig it. It impressed me on a few different levels. And the chick has nice hoo-ha's as well... LOL

I loved it, I thought the game was amazing. It was just to short.

Short, but very, very good.

Heavenly Sword is amazing. The combat is just deep enough to provide a challenge, but not so complex that anyone can't pick it up and play it. Using the sword is very satisfying, more so than any of the weapons in God of War III, and the story and characters blow most games available on the PS3 out of the water. The only downside is its short, but its so enjoyable that I've kept it anyway.

It's alright. I beat it once & traded it in. I thought the boss battles were bloody hard especially the last one, but it was satisfying when I finished it. I might've played it again if it had cheats or alternate outfits or something, but meh, no replay value for me & it's a very short game. It's worth a rent at least. Also Nariko's hot. 7/10
