Just like the title says. If Ninja Gaiden which is a 4 year old port can score a 9.0 on GS and doesnt even look or play nearly as good as Heavenly sword,Heavenly sword is going to ATLEAST score 9.0 here. Dont get me wrong, Ninja Gaiden isnt a bad game at all, but i have both Demos downloaded of Ninja gaiden and heavenly sword and I must say that heavenly sword blows it out of the water, sure Ninja Gaiden is a port but seriously, it still did score 9.0 here on GS. I mean with that said, why wouldnt Heavenly Sword score AAA?! It has gorgeous graphics, amazing cut scenes, Some of the best physics on any console to date and superb musical score with fun gameplay, its atleast going to score 9.0

Itagaki will send his slutty ninja assassins to kill you for calling HS better than NG! (he hates HS) :o

But I think they're both good games, and I hope that HS at least gets an 8.5. It's a gorgeous game and what little I played of it was fun.

how?the games are way different.just because NG scores AAA doesnt have anything to do with HS.i fail to see how one games score can guarantee another games score.

Well Sigma is based off an already proven AAA game; Heavenly Sword is a new game, I wouldn't be so sure.

TC, this topic is a classic example of one of the fallacies you learn if you take a Philosophy course.

Game A scored AAA on GS and Game B is somewhat similar to Game A so by default Game B will get the same score.

Problem is, the games are very different in story, characters, art direction, sound, theme, pretty much everything is different except for a similar style of gameplay.

It's like saying, because Halo series has always been AAA, all FPS's on Xbox will get AAA. Did this happen?

Heavenly Sword's gameplay is inferior to Ninja Gaiden's.

I like NG better than HS as well. But HS is still darned good, and could potentially be AAA.

What keeps Heavenly Sword from being as great as NG, GoW or DMC is the lack of a jump button; that just kills it's chances of being any better than those 3.

The fact he hates another video game is a joke...but i agree with your assessment of HS. I plan on getting it the day it comes out.

Action adventure is dominated by 3 games:

Prince of persia, God of war, Ninja gaiden

From what i have seen of HS, it won't beat even one of these games.

Replace Prince of Persia with Devil May Cry. Prince of Persia is more like a Zelda game, heavy on the adventure aspects and less focussed on action. God of War, Devil May Cry, Ninja Gaiden, and Heavenly Sword are more action heavy.

You can block in DMC, you just have to use the Royal Guard ****.

I don't know. I've seen the videos for HS. While the woman has the moves, the enemies seem sort of dull. The thing that made NG fun was that the enemies would jump around, throw, shoot, and counter as much as you did. They were your equal in most things, although they lacked health (atleast in normal).

My biggest beef with HS was the framerate. But that's what happens when you're spoiled by NGS running in 1080p at a constant 60FPS!

Prince of Persia? That isn't even an Action adventure. Anyway, replace PoP with LoZ and it'll make more sense.
