uncharted no doubt, r6v2 is just rehash crap its number1 with different maps, and your set with online with cod4 so get uncharted its amazing and the best looking game on the ps3, heavenly sword is also pretty amazing but just 2 short its a must play through though

Heavenly Sword is awful, and I find it hard to believe R6V2 can surpass COD4's online awesomeness, which you are apparently aware of as you own COD4.

However, in any list of potential buys, Uncharted should be near the top. It's a fantastic game with a decent amount of replay value and really shows off the PS3's muscle. Out of the three you listed, it's easily the best choice.

And for another recommendation, I would suggest looking into the Orange Box. I know a lot of people have said bad things about it, but lots of people have had big problems with COD4 online as well; I have never experienced any problems with either thus far. If you haven't played HL2, OB is a fantastic value with 5 games for the price of one, including one very good, very addicting multiplayer component in Team Fortress 2, and one of the strangest and greatest experiences in modern gaming in Portal.

To be honest, I wouldn't buy Uncharted or Heavenly Sword. I'm a rent-first-buy-second kind of gamer. And if the game is beatable in a week, I usually don't buy. But I wouldn't buy RSV2 right away either. Would want to try it out and make sure how good it is, especially incomparison to CoD4. And I'd want to be sure the online MP worked well, since that's where the real value is in owning it.

I say put that money you'd use for one game to give yourself 4 months or more of gamefly membership. then you can play them all. And if you decide to buy, you can with a nice discount only a week or two after release. Most times, you pay in the $40's for a used/new release.

heavenly Sword is not awful. Great story telling, great characters, most definitely worth a play through.

You dont think it looks a little bright and blury? I know I'm nit picking and it could just be the way the video was filmed but it still looks like poo.

No! Don't be fooled by the prettiness and production values of Heavenly Sword! Rent it, by all means, but do not buy! I rented this tripe with a friend and played it for about 4 hours maybe... what a waste of time and "effort."

Wow, Rainbow Six is one of my favorite series of all time. I would suggest Uncharted though. I had tons of fun with it and I'm about %85 complete. COD4 and MLB 08 the Show has pretty much taken up all my time as of late.

uncharted is good. But it doesn't have multiplayer. If you looking for multiplayer then I would recommend vegas 2.

Out of your three choices get Rainbow Six Vegas 2 because of the replay value. Uncharted and Heavenly Sword are great games but after you beat them you won't play them as much. With Rainbow Six 2 you can create a character and play through the single player mode and multiplayer mode upgrading your character and gaining experience. Multiplayer is fun to play also. And Rainbow Six will have future updates like maps etc.

Buy Heavenly Sword if you want hack and slash action with a medieval setting. Get Uncharted if you want gun blasting with a tropical setting. Both are fantastic and a nice way to show off the PS3 visually and acoustically. Just depends on what type of action game you preffer atm.

not to me dont rub ur eyes and watch the trailer :lol: j/k i been waiting for this game since it was in space.. and with my unrubbed eyes i still like this game :).. u see the blur in both trailers though cause when the creature jumps on him it suppose to blur the background and focus on the 2 fighting. other then that i dont really see it..

Heavenly Sword is a fantastic game. I don't regret 60$ spent on it one bit when it first came out. I finished the game close to nine hours. My very good friend rushed through the game completely and beat it in seven and a half hours.

Trying to master the air combat, different stances, and collecting all the emblems for each stage to unlock over 100 samples of great artwork took me quite some time.

You can't say that the game is not worth owning, because it sure is. It will depend on a person. ^_^

I own Heavenly sword and I liked it. However it is a button masher no doubt, with very little strategy. Definitely an acquired taste. It is not on par with Uncharted though on any level, and HS is extremely short too ( but with all the quality games I have I actually liked that feature). It is the third best single player game on the PS3 with Uncharted being number 1 and Ratchet and Clank a solid 2. I would suggest if you do not have a lot of cash rent it first or wait until the used copies are about $25 bucks.
