heavenly sword review.

everyone saw this coming cows but you. Next time show a little foresight

regardless this seems like a solid AA title and i might pick this up. Congratulations on another good exclusive next to Warhawk

Ninja Gaiden Sigma delivered, Heavenly Sword flopped. IT was a new IP in development for 4 years and all they came up with was 6 to 8 hours of gameplay and no other modes like NGS Mission mode. HEavenly Sword is a HUGE disappointment and I do not know why anyone would pick it over NGS.

I was going to buy this game to, but not now its a rental. In a developer interview on a PS3 podcast he said the game was around 12 hours long, so where did the other half of the game go? Major disappointment for me.

Ever heard of downloadable content? I am sure they will have some extra content available for this game.

boo...Metroid Prime 3 got an 8.5 and Heavenly Sword only got an 8.0....THIS IS MADNESS....haha, someone finish this statement ;)xAngelxDustx

THOSE

ARE

FLOPS!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So, what's the next big PS3 exclusive game that's going to by hyped? Haze?

Well, the length of the game was obviously going to do some damage in the end. Few games can get away withbeing horribly shortand still get AAA (Gears is like the only one). Ah well, at least it's not a flop of Lair-esque proportions.

Well, it reminds me of the Blue Dragon review, except reverse, and not as bad, because Blue Dargon was Hypted AA/AAA but got a 4.5... Heavenly Sword got hyped AAA, and got an AA.

I wonder if Lems forgot about that.

Remember?

The Final Fantasy Killer

The game that would pull the 360 up in Japan

The Final Masterpiece..

Before OMG damage control. Think about that.

I know, I have Ninja Gaiden Sigma. To be honest I think that game is overrated. Vastly overrated. I could go on and on about why I think that game just flat out sucks in some areas but thats for another thread. Anyway, I will take a game that puts an emphasis on story and presentation with good gameplay over a game that relies on being cheap (NGS) with a pisspoor story and bad presentation.

This game is officialy a flop in system wars, theres no way around it.

The Cows seem to be lowering their standards to make their games look better, The 360 is killing the PS3 in terms of games.

What are you talking about...wow . You are not worthy of these boards because clearly you have no idea what's happening.Blue Dragon got a 6...Lair got a 4.5 .If heavenly sword was hyped AAA and got AA it's still a flop like metroid.

Flooooooop

Halo 3 > entire Ps3 library.

just like blue dragon!

just like blue dragon!

blue dragon was hyped AA and got A, HS was hyped AAA and got a low AA which makes it a bigger flop but not as big as lair

[QUOTE="FinalEvil"]

When will the PS3 get an exclusive AAA title? :lol:

Oh well, 8.0 is good enough.

Soulja_West

When MGS4 and Killzone 2 come out. I hope that answers your question.

mgs4 yes killzone 2 not so much

Only a 8 ?

Ouch guess its better to rent it then.

Wait I thought the Hype was AA was it AAA? I don't remember the thread for itkcpp2b

it was aaa and hyped to be the firstkiller app for ps3

OUCH!!!. Just saw the review. I had a feeling it wouldnt be a AAA but still its just painful to see. At least it got a AA right guys.....?

Blitz_Nemesis

If it was under the old rating system, maybe an A? Bah, I hate GS's new rating system.:( If it scored less, then it's a rental for me.

What a pathetic flop.8 hours?!. PS3 owners looking for an action game, look no further than Ninja Gaiden Sigma. Still the only PS3 game I own (and Ive had my PS3 since launch).

[QUOTE="Nike_Air"][QUOTE="kansasdude2009"]

only 1 problem

It's a 60 dollar game for a 1 evening trip. :(

Good score though, must be pretty epic and sweet! :D

kansasdude2009

you buy consoles for short experiences? God of War is longer than this.... this is like Gears of War almost. I would rent it. I like games like Zelda where the games is amazing and lasts 45+ hours.

Didn't people changed their hype after seeing the other reviews?blizzvalve

cows always do.

[QUOTE="SiiSsy"][QUOTE="joeblak"][QUOTE="Truth-slayer"]

[QUOTE="norfair_dweller"]Hmmm...I think I said 7.5. Oh well, at least I called it on being repetitive.V_Isle

I hope they release that muliplayer mode sometime this year. Oh and it better be free.

Unlike Heavenly Sword, Gears Of War was a high AAA and Game Of The Year. :lol:

@IMA: Yeah whatever, no hard feelings.

:lol:

Wasen't it hyped AA? It met hype.Wasdie

I thought so too but it looks like it was hyped AAA

nice try, but it's hyped AAA :|

Wasen't it hyped AA? It met hype.Wasdie

Nope. Lair and Warhawk were hyped AA and HS was hyped AAA.

[QUOTE="Wasdie"]Wasen't it hyped AA? It met hype.kcpp2b

Both the official and unofficial hype for HS was AAA.

As a PS3 owner I fell for the hype of blu-ray leading to substantially longer games then DVD-9.

possible multiplat in teh future?

Wasen't it hyped AA? It met hype.Wasdie

Why do you keep lying? It was hyped AAA, you can't lie your way out of this. It's a flop. Over, done with.

LOL ANOTHER FLOP FOR PS 2.5!

Yes it's a flop, will that stop it from selling? NO!no_submission

So it's ok if it sucks, as long as it sells good, amirite? :roll:

Yes it's a flop, will that stop it from selling? NO!no_submission

Why does that matter, as soon as the wii is brought into an argument its sales dont matter! now when games flop of the ps3quality dont matter?
