Heavenly Sword is the one of the reasons I bought the Playstation 3. This game looks absolutely amazing and the demo was a complete blast to play. I can't believe it's coming out next week. :D

Who's excited and who will be purchasing the first true killer app for the Playstation 3?

i found the combat boring, it was just like playing god of war. Without the style, and smoothness.

This game showed as much promise as Lair...

That's all that needs to be said.

Hmm.. The character Models in the game are really good but some of the enviroments (apart from some of the really big ones) look like they are from an xbox game.

I think we should keep this thread in mind for the GS review. A game comes to mind... Lair. Yeah, Heavenly Sword's graphics are nice but it's gotten so-so reviews from other sources. I wouldn't get your hopes too high... or will Sony Fans never learn?

The game may get a 9.0 here at GS. Its pretty sad how Sony has lowered the expectations of Cows over the past year to the point wherea 9.0 is your definition of a "killer app". :lol:

If EGM's biggest Sony fanboy, Shane B, can only give Heavenly Sword a 9/10, then do you really think that GS will give it higher than this???

I'd take Mario, Zelda, and Metroid over Sony's current exclusives like Resistance, Warhawk, Motorstorm, and Lair. But if you throw in Heavenly Sword, it would be a tough choice.

We have reasons to hype a game, except for its graphics...I agree red steel was over hyped but its concept seemed nice and we needed the hype. But then again,5.5 > 4.5 roflmao. And Zelda + MP3 >>>>> PS3 entire library.

hmmm three of those games are excellent, i loved papermario, twillight princess and prime 3. all were amazing. i played red steel for about 3 minutes and actually have been thinking about buying strikers because those i know that own it love it.

as for heavly S i will be renting it or waiting till one of my freinds buy it. i have read more than one place it is only 6 hours long and i can not justify 60 bucks for six hours of gameplay.

that "killer app" releases 13 days before halo3. it's sales totals will be listed on the same chart as halo3. that killer app just turned into a stastic no matter how good it is. sony should have made it trade launch dates with lair. it might have gotten some attention, and the world wouldn't have even bothered to notice 4.5 .

Anyone that buys it is crazy. It is a 6 hour game so just rent it. It will take you one night or 2 max to beat it from what they are saying.

Yes, that is pretty much my take on the game as well. I don't really care if it gets a 10. If it its only 6 hours long give 3 or 4 more hours, it is simply not worth $60.

Am I hyping it any certain score in this thread? A killer app can be someones own personal value of the game and not some Gamespot rating since I'm not proclaiming it to be a AAA title.

It will be AA and that's still a killer app in my book if it interests you.

haven't you learned anything from Lair? just because a game has good graphics it does not mean it will be a good killer app

Good fun Gameplay > Graphics

Gears though had great online play to give much more play time. Heavenly Sword is 6 hours then that is it. No online play. pretty lame.
