Heavenly Sword to have multiplayer, free of charge

[QUOTE="Fignewton50"][QUOTE="jdang307"][QUOTE="Fignewton50"]As the old saying goes, you get what you pay for. Kalias

and when i pay $400+ on a console should i expect it to have a 33% failure rate? should i expect it to break down and scratch by discs more often then it should?

Well of course not. Where the hell are you getting a 33% failure rate? And please don't get that ridiculous site about one EB games in Australia. You should never expect that. But if it happens, atleast you get a 3 year warranty!

hmmm HS is just getting more and more interesting...

Hack and slashers should only have asingle player mode and a co-op mode but this is lame if you aske me. kage_53

"Think about it though, if the online is crappy, will that bring down the final review of the game? I've seen Gamespot reviews lower a game's score because the online or multiplayer was bad. Personally, I don't think this is the case because to get the multiplayer, you would have to download it separately at the Playstation Store."

It would be the first "review revision" in the history of the universe. Once they get the final copy (Overlord was not a final copy), what they say about it pretty much stands. Take Half Life 2, for instance. Half Life 2 released without Deathmatch, then it was added a little while later, and the score was never edited.

This online mode sounds extremely tacked on though and I hope they take the time to make it worthwhile. I'd rather they make the original game as polished as possible and then focus on the multiplayer component and make it VIABLE.

That's cool, then.

This isnt a fps game, and besides, does the xbox 360 even have any action games? So far the ps3 has Ninja Gaiden Sigma, and Heavenly Sword, and pretty soon Devil May Cry, and God of War 3 in 2008-2009. Wheres your action games?

1/4 until Ninja Gaiden 2. Nice job, keep them coming.

[QUOTE="Koalakommander"]I honestly think that will give it the AAA it deserves from GS.
Koalakommander

I dunno, to get AAA on GS has always been a hard feat for a game to accomplish. Then again, with the new rating system it might be easier than ever to get AAA.

Well I can't name any action/adventure games that have an online mode save for Ratchet and Clank. I think HS is taking a brave step forward.

I agree on that I'm just really skeptical that it will hit the same watermarks as the single player....I don't know if it will translate well at all.

Smakkjoo

Yeah but doesn't GS rate it down for no multiplayer anyways?

Well heavenly Sword is similar to God of War and both have gotten AAA's here and neither have multiplayer. I'm really surprised it will have multiplayer, I never expected this.

not on the 360 that's for damn sure

I bet it's going to suck.

Just because Resistance multiplayer has 40 players doesnt mean every game has to run 40 players online.

Just because PS3 can handle 40+ players doesnt mean every game has to be 40+ players.

typical damage control.

[QUOTE="Redfingers"]1/4 until Ninja Gaiden 2. Nice job, keep them coming.Heil68

Ninja Gaiden 2 to be announced at X07.... OH WAIT!

If this is true, then I'll definitely be getting this game, assuming I'm able to get a PS3 before the end of the year. Blue-Sphere

it's not true, trust me :).

I will take that news with a grain of salt.

Until reputable news sites confirm it at least. But cool if true.

PVP (1 vs. 1) LastSamurai14

They keep making my decision between getting Uncharted or HS first harder and harder...

The multiplayer sounds great though. Could work really well I think.

Thats good news. It should add a lot of replay value to this game. That would be cool if they also added an offline 2-player co-op mode.

p.s. with "TEH" and "PWNAGE" floating around here like it's in the Dictionary, i have little to no worries about my grammar!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

ninja theory were responsible for Kung Fu Chaos right?

i'd expect the multiplayer to be similar to that, so i wouldn't expect much.

i'm sure these guys can make an awesome single-player... but a free add-on multiplayer? i'm not so sure if i should be excited about it yet. i need to see it in action.

but with a brawl sortof multi play, it would have to go the Smash Bros. route. hence the HS: Kung Fu Chaos edition.

They do. In other games. Do you disagree?
