every review picked on heavenly sword because its was a full priced game that was about 6-7 hours in gameplay.

Its score was effected because of this

then odst comes along. Games is about 3-4 hours in game play yet is praised. sure reviews mention that its short but in never effects it score like it did to heavenly sword.

So what is it SW

a over priced expansion

or an over priced short game (more overpriced the hs)

ODST has multiplayer. I'll take it over an overpriced single player game.

ODST has several different multiplayer modes to increase the replayability, Heavenly sword does not.

Also I believe most reviewers have stated that ODST is 6-8 hours long.

But it still has it. When you're done with the Heavenly Sword single player you have nothing else really to do.

ODST has a 8 hour campaign and FIREFIGHT! Firefight alone is addictive.

Cause ODST is AAA quality, Heavenly Sword is not. 9.0. And I loved Heavenly Sword.

And Heavenly Sword has no replay whatsoever. Nothing. No co-op. Nothing.

And if you already have Halo 3... the same applies to ODST. I do feel like that game was a gyp. I enjoyed HS and played through it twice... but it probably was not worth full price either.

ODST had a fairly extensive online mode however. Heavenly Sword is an awesome game though.

Actually, if you already have Halo 3 you still get the multiplayer with ODST. You can still play it on ODST.

Agreed. It's obvious the TC hasn't played atleast one of them. And if he pulls the "friend's house excuse" I'm going to laugh out of my seat.

It's a full retail game. Honestly. It's not as if you pay more for an RPG game where you're playing for dozens of hours. So why would you pay less for what you "feel" is a shorter game? :?

that doesnt mean you can ignore it. besides, Firefight was added and the game wasn't 4 hours long, lol. why do cows keep making that number smaller and smaller:roll: anyway, with the multiplayer and firefight as well as a moderate size single player campaign there go....the difference and win over HS.

No its the entire Halo 3 MP, and Firefight. Remember to get your facts straight you just end up selfowning yourself.

Heavenly Sword was a bad game with awesome voice actors and ODST is just bad evrywhere. Both of them sold at 59.99 is a ripoff.

ODST has a 6 hour campaign, along with Firefight and Halo 3's complete multiplayer package including every map released.

ODST>>HS.

actually... yeah it kinda is, a shorter and lamer clone at that

the main character looks like a female Kratos, she fights like female Kratos, heck even gamespot says:

"Like God of War, Heavenly Sword starts off with what appears to be the death of the game's main character"

Well Heavenly Sword is one of my favourite games this gen but I think it would have benefitted from a longer campaign, co-op options and trophy support. Co-op would have been great for the game, especially given the two main characters. But overall the SP was excellent and I definately did not regret buying it. It had a great story, good gameplay, good characters and voic acting, and the graphics and presentation are still up there with the best this gen.

Replayability is a big factor for this one. With that said, ODST wins. Firefight is more replayable than anything heavanly sword has to offer.

Does it really matter what is more replayable? I have played Fifa 10 and Resistance FOM the most this gen but I definately would not say they are the best games I have played. Replayability is just one factor, a game can still be great without having a high level of replayability. MGS series has never had that much replayability yet its critically acclaimed. The 12-16 hours of HS (2-3 playthroughs) was very high quality and so I was satisfied.
