remember when people were trying to say lair was going to suck because the fire didnt look real:roll:. well it looks like we got another bunch of littile girls trying to say that stunning game that is heavenly sword is going to be stupid because devolpers are not goign to put blood in the game and took out the spear impaling thing. im still going to get it though because if you watch the trailer you can see that their has never been any blood in the game and its still going to be a breath taking game

i don't think i'll get HS if there is no blood. i know that may sound weird or stupid to some people but where is the realism in that? i personally wouldn't be able to take the game seriously; not in that kind of setting and atmosphere the game seems to have.

Yea, some of you guys are being pretty silly. This game looks awesome. Like the OP said, all the trailers we've seen so far have been absolutely awesome. I don't think anyone even noticed there was no blood until the recent article... the action still looks top notch.

I agree, no blood doesnt mean a thing to me. The game looks great, will probably play great and thats what matters. Those who dont want it because of the blood thing is like saying no to the PS3 because it didnt come with an HDMI cable. And thats just plain silly.

i glad to see that only one of you guys that posted are tripping about how the game is going to be stupid because it doesnt have blood i not going to point anyone out;) and the rest of you see that blood an nakedness:roll: do not make a game better or worst. oh and and for anyone that says this game is going to suck because  their's no blood or gore lets remember that shining gem we call freedom fighters. you were shooting nazis and their was no blood and people loved that game. to be serious alot of people consider that to be one of the best games made. and lets not forget the games that some of yall mentioned and others such as: kingdom hearts, kingdom hearts 2, freedom fighters again, all of the tekkens, vf, bully,  and those are just the few that prove that you dont need blood just to have a good game. and if anything doing this will probably get them more sell's then their already going to get. cause we all know the guys who are talking crap are probably going to be the first people to make a comment saying OMG heavenly sword is amazing. so lets just wait to play the demo when it comes or when the game comes out before you say the game is going to suck because their is no blood ,gore, or naked chicks8)

If you refuse to buy a game because it lacks blood or because its not rated M you may have some serious problems.

Seriously boo hoo no blood. Blood doesn't make a great game. What makes a great game is a good story and or gameplay. Everything else is just added extras for example: Graphics, BLOOD, online etc. I'm looking forward to this game with great anticipation, my wallet isn't though...

Where's the realism in a chick swinging a gigantic magical sword that can change to destroy an entire legion of enemies while flipping all over the place???

 

I'm pretty sure most females can do that, they just don't want to show off their mad skillz.

more realistic than no blood from getting chopped up by shard blades, lol, i'm sorry, i'm not saying that blood is required for a game to be good, i love games like jak and daxter and ratchet and clank. but you don't expect blood with those kind of games, for HS it seems it should imo

In a game that revolves around non-stop killing, it seems out of place to not have any blood.  But it's not gonna stop me from buying the game, it looks awesome regardless.

Yeah that kind sucks.... the whole game is based around slaughtering people. Going for a Teen rating by sacrificing what makes a game like that stand out is a bad idea. Really T games do not get hype or sales of bloody M ones. If they do it right it won't matter too much and it'll still be a great game.

Actually, HS not having blood in it makes me interested in it a little more. Look at DMC3 ... you don't see a ton of blood there, yet all you do is kill stuff in that, and that was a great game.

 

As for God Of War, honestly it has so much blood (and nudity) in it that it just becomes cheesy after a while. I mean, sure things bleed when you cut them, but in GoW, they gush blood in ways that would make the blood spurts in anime seem conservative.

 

And as for the fact that a lack of blood takes from realism ... in a video game ... I don't think I even have to address that, it's ridiculous enough on its own.

instead of realistic, let's try using a better term.

 believable. how about that?  Since the game is fantasy, there's no way it can be real... but believable, who different ball game.

alright this is asanine why wouldn't you by a game because of it's rating or because it doesn't have blood. you would seriously push aside a game that has a great story, great characters, and great gameplay mechanics because it's not a gorefest? okay first of all i happen to know that blood gushing from sword wound is a myth heres why when you get a major wound like that your body goes into a type if shock so you won't bleed to death i know this because my dad when he was in the army raced out of the barracks and when my dads buddy pushed the steel reinforced door open my dad was close behind and could of put his hand in front of the reinforced door and broke every bone in his wrist or stuck it through the wire reinforced window he chose the window and basically filleted his arm there was one drop of blood the size of his thumbnail and that was it im not saying there wouldn't be any blood but there should as hell wouldn't be gallons

I do think having a bit of blood would add to the game's atmosphere and believability, but is the lack of it going to ruin an otherwise good game? Nah. People just like complaining, that's all. It's completely corny in FF7 for Aeris to get run through by a sword and yet not bleed a drop, but it's not like that ruined THAT game for anybody.

Wait a second....when you said that they took out the spear impaling thing, is that when you throw a spear at someone and steer it by tilting the controller?  I hope that's not what you mean because I was really looking forward to doing that.

Anyways, who cares if there's no blood and guts.  Have you guys ever played Prince of Persia:  Sands of Time?  It didn't have blood and guts but wow, what a game that was.

Sorry no Nazi's .. Russian comunists..

And about the no blood part?

I don't think I would even notice the lack of blood... Still believe that it should be in the game even though it does not make\break the game if it does not.

I'm glad somebody finally mentioned Prince of Persia. I absolutely loved the original, but I honestly passed on the sequels once the developers went for the more gory-"overly bad-ass" approach. I felt that it took away from the game and, if I didn't know any better, I'd say they were entirely different games! Not that I don't like gore, believe me, I love games like Soldier of Fortune and Gears of War. Same thing goes for Timesplitters. I loved the first two games, but the developers went for the blood route for the third game and I'd say it feels a lot different to shoot dozens of small little monkeys and have no blood, but then shoot dozens more in the next game and have pools of gore around the monkeys' bodies...

Realisim? LOL.  It's all about escapisim by doing the impossible on your games console.  Becoming a great sportmans or warrior, etc, etc.  It's like saying GTA is no good because you can carry multiple weapons at once and never see any of them until you equip them.

there should be a setting for blood. im happy that they took the blood out because now my son can play it. ninja gaiden he seen me play it and said i can't wait to try that game and i said no you will not be playing this game because of the blood. my son misses out on so many awesome titles (god of war ninja gaiden ect.) now he will be able to play a game like the ones i mentions. i still would of like the blood though but ow well happy gaming son.

My thoughts exactly.   

Where's the realism in a chick swinging a gigantic magical sword that can change to destroy an entire legion of enemies while flipping all over the place???

Well I think this was a really smart decision on the developer's part b/c no blood does mean something to them. It means that alot of moms are gonna be able to buy this game for their kids who are still in middle school n/or in highschool. BTW this game does look awsome and the feel of no blood will make this game alot more accessible to younger people and make alot more sales.

ok realism isn't the word to be using hmm.... how about it just seems out of place in a game about killing people for revenge? is that better? sorry if i angered anyone. it seems i get flamed just for stating one flaw that "I" don't like about a game that isn't even out yet.

 I agree Very much with everything you just typed..

Played firt prince of persia.. loved it .. second one? .. could not even complete it.

Timesplitters 2 on the other hand.. That is probably one of the most played games by me ever.. I had 149\150 characters and every trophy on either gold or platinum except one..which was bronze..

Never bought timesplitters 3 because my ps2 broke down before it released and seeming as the ps3 would have come out on nov.17 in europe...*sighs* nevermind
