Heavenly sword- IGN score

IGN.com has given Heavenly Sword for the PS3 a 7/10 (keep in mind that they use a scoring system similar to G-Spot's old system). Now I haven't read the review in depth but yet again the PS3's gaming library is at a lackluster level; now obviously one title isn't going to make the system shine, but this was being touted as one of the PS3's killer apps. There have been other review from not so reliable sources but a 7 is simply not good enough for an exclusive on a system that is lacking in AAA titles. Really all this game has going for it is its impressive graphics, but the game unfortunately is an empty shell. Its a bit comical that many were saying that this game was not going to be a God of War clone, but IMHO that could have been the best thing to happen Ninja Theory's title. I just wish Kojima surprised us tomorrow with MGS 4 and at least alleviate Sony fans worries, because at this point it is rather excessive. Not to say that the PS3 does not have anything going for it, but it simply would not be good for the industry as a whole if Sony faltered to the degree that Sega did not too long ago. Disappointments like Heavenly Sword are what keep me from purchasing a PS3 to complete my holy trinity of next-gen gaming... *sigh* Kojima-san where art thou?
