By all accounts, it is 6-8 hours. I don't think it has a hard mode, but I could be wrong. It is beautiful, though short.

you should be able to find it a little cheaper, but I myself am gonna get this game also along with uncharted...

I beat both of these games but said I will wait for the price to come down cause these are great games to have in your collection... try to look a little harder online cause I am sure you can find HS cheaper than that

I'd save the money for something else. Heavenly Sword was a short, disappointing and overall just unsatisfying experience that I had no desire to play again once I'd finished it.

Heavenly Sword does have a hard mode called "Hell Mode."

I thought it was an awesome game, but when I first bought it I didn't visit forums boards so I wasn't exposed to the same hype that other people were.

You can probably get HS for much cheaper now. If you're a collector keep looking if not just rent it. R&C is worth a couple play throughs being the gameplay is fun and there is a challenge mode after you beat the game but your weapons stay so powerful that sometimes it can get so easy that its boring.

Oh and I bought it for $60.

I think it's worth it, because I still play it every now and then.

Yes, it's worth it! It's not quite as fun as GOW.... But it's pretty close. The action and the story are awesome... but the levels are pretty strait forward and don't require as much puzzle solving as GOW did.

R&C is DEFINITELY worth $35... you'll need to go through it at least twice to upgrade to all the ultimate weapons and get the ultimate armor.

I wouldn't save the money for something else. Heavenly Sword was a short, sweet and overall just plain awesome experience that I had no desire to stop playing once I'd finished it. Silent-Hal

Heavenly Sword is an awesome game with great graphics and story line. Gameplay is very good and challenging. Should be able to find it for under $30 used at Game Stop. I enjoyed the game very much, but the only draw back is it ends too soon. But I have play it several times and still enjoy it.

Im currently on my second go around +new game , *Spoilers* you can rebuy your weapons but they are called omega weapons , and upgrade ur armor more and so on.. and on ur first play through the weapons level up to lvl 5 , on the 2nd i assume they level to lvl10 considering i just leveled up to lvl 7 and its still going. enemies are harder to kill though especially if u dont have the omega weapons .. AND u get WAY More bolts its not funny.

R&C sucks. The graphics and gameplay are good, but the game is so damn easy it takes away any challenge. Beating the game feels more like an easy inevitability than any real challenge. The "story" is also beyond lame and childish. I think it was worth no more than an 8. I'm actually selling my copy this week to somebody off kijiji. I think Heavenly Sword is an epic rental,, a really great and engaging story, awesome visuals and a dumbed down gameplay style of God of War. It's also got the best motion captured facial animation/dialogue I've ever seen in a game. I have a longer review in my profile. I think I may buy it in the future, but not for more than $15.

did you play on the +newgame? the enemies are harder to kill. Though i agree the story sucked. Personally the 1st ratchet was mind blowing :D but its still a cool game.

FYI, I just bought HS for 17.95 on gamefly. No matter what it's worth 18 bucks. Plus I think it will be on PS3's greatest hits for half off soon.

Same here! The platforming and puzzling is what killed GoW for me.

it will be worth when its $20...i mean yeah..the game is good, great gfxs, sound, story etc....but the length and no replay value doesnt make it worth 40 in my opinion
