Do you think Heavenly Sword will be the PS3's 1st killer app?

My most anticipated game on the PS3 is Heavenly Sword, but after finding this out, I am a little cautious.

Ninja Theory was previously Just Add Monsters who developed Kung Fu Chaos.

Ninja Theory Ltd, was formed in Cambridge England, in November of 2004, by Nina Kristensen (Chief Development Ninja), Mike Ball (Chief Technology Ninja), Tameem Antoniades (Chief Design Ninja) and Non-Executive Ninja, Jez San OBE. Ninja Theory was formerly known as Just Add Monsters Ltd and is the team behind Kung Fu Chaos, a game published in 2003 by Microsoft Games Studios exclusively for the Xbox and released on time, on budget and to critical acclaim in 2003.

Ninja Theory believes that the next-generation of games consoles offer an opportunity to elevate the games experience into one that can rival film and literature and was one of the first development studios to commit exclusively to next-generation consoles. And, no, we don’t care if you think we’re a bunch of pretentious gits for saying that!

If you’re wondering why we are called “Ninja Theory”, it’s because we wanted a name with “Ninja” in it and that’s the best we could come up with!

I doubt it.klabut

Yeah, I smell "teh floppage".

Ps3 won't have any killer apps you gotta wait for ps4

then when you waste 600 or 700 dollars on your ps4 then you can wait five months and still have no good games just like you do now with your ps3

No game can justify $600Silchas

Couldn't have said it better myself.

I'll say it again:  Heavenly Sword = God of War - Kratos + Hawt Chick + teh better graphics.  I'm predicting it to come in with mid to upper 8 range on GS.  Also,  I HATE the phrase:  KILLER APP.  I guess you could technically call a video game a software application, but that sounds so boring.  IMHO, MS Word is a software application.  Heavenly Sword is a game.  All you system wars people, go to your nearest mirror and say these words:  "Heavenly Sword is Gonna be a KILLER APP!!!!"  Now tell me, after hearing yourself say that, was the first thought in your mind this?  "Wow, that sounded dorky as hell".  To each their own, buzz-words and buzz-phrases annoy me for whatever reason.  Marketing people love them, so they are here to stay.joe_g_patton

It definitely looks like the first great action game on next gen consoles. Kung Fu Chaos was still a pretty fun game.... but Sony is putting a lot more money & development into Heavenly Sword.

I agree that it does look like a next gen GOW with a female lead..... but that's awesome!:D Because the only thing that could have been better would have been an actual next gen GOW. This game definitely has potential to be a killer app and will go a long way to help me hold out for GOW3!

No I doubt it simple fact is ninja theorys last and only outing was kungfu chaos which sucked, and HS simply looks like goddess of war and thats it.
I played god of war and beat it in under 6 hours on spartan dificulty, didn't feel the need to beat it on the dificulty that opens up after that.
Im gonna play god of war 2 cause im a completist but I've had enough of button mashing gods for this gen.

Probably

And about that last choice in your poll... most people spend even more than 600$ on their X360... I'm so tired of hearing this-

Cows please hype this game to the moon and back!

I want to taste your tears again.

Mmm...you guys...cow tears are the best!!!

Lemmings are scared that Heavenly Sword will out score Gears of War. Even if it doesnt, it will still be AAA. Dunno whether it will be the first killer app, however not long after its release, Lair comes out and that could also be AAA and a killer app. DSgamer64

I highly doubt it will get 9.7+. GeOW was overrated imo, so Heavenly Sword could be better (for me) but it will not out-score GeOW.
