i finally played this, and god of war is easier, the ai kicked my ass, but that made it better in my opinion.

i played a demo at a kiosk it was pretty sweet, I played god of war, I'm not sure I'll get this, for the pure reason that hack and slash games wear my thumbs out, I like a little more skill than button tapping, i mean the combos are fun and all, idk...it just gets a little repetitive. But if I were to play them I would play this game, it was fun while i played it, collisions seemed pretty good, and the graphics are amazing.

cool intereview. I need to pick up this game for sure even tho it is short. I'm looking forward to the sequals, too.

and where does it say Nina theory?

The game is the $hits nits.. Its a must have..

this game is really great i can't wait to pick this up on friday.  evenythough people say its short, that really does'nt make a game good or bad cuz HOME and the trophies and stuff will keep you interested. its great buy for ps3 users and people thats also anticipated to jump in HOME 

rinmatt.....dude the problem is that ur not good....during the whole game i died at MOST 6 times...i beat this game already and i just got it....its ur opinion that GoW is easier but honestly dude GoW is far better then HS...why? story is better...game is longer....music is WAAAAy better....HS i admire the sixaxis add-ons for shooting arrows..the bazooka...even throwing w/e u pick up its pretty fun....but the trilogy for HS!? thats bull5hit...why? cuz nariko dies at the end and kai is in charge of hiding the sword so wth...if its sum1 else like they did with DMC4 it will be a load of crap

sounds like a sweet game, liked the demo (too short). I really dont think the similarity with GOW is a coinsidence accept that GOW is actually a longish game that got really difficult at some points, its such a good game, 1 and 2.

THANx for the spoiler

 

psn id: gingo... i cant wait to play this tomorrow it's going to absolutely awesome

WTF.....the game is already said to be short, why would you feel the need to give us a spoiler on the release day of the game?? Thank you for the warning, but was a spoiler really called for at this time? Some people really know how to F-up a good thing.

@

Ahhhhhhhhhh, man!! So the game has been in development for 4 freakin years and it's only a 6 hour game? wtf, Ninja Theory get your act together and pump out a game that will last at least 30 - 40 hours. Come on, this game does look good, but it's not worth it's $60 price tag for only 6 hours of game play. I guess I'm just spoiled with Oblivion's 100+ hours of game play.

The game is not all that good... Almost regretting spending the $60....The mocap was indeed beautiful... but what good is it when the frame rate sucks....I've played halfway through the game and I can't understand for the life of me why can't developers have a secure frame rate?? It made me a little upset that something that is so beautiful to look at is marred by jaggies, horrible shade reflections of characters faces (more jaggies), inconsistent frame rate which would make you think the game was developed by EA. Also there was collision issues but many might think that I'm nitpicking. As for the characters look in cutscenes??? Is it just me or Did they uses all the polygons for Bohan and his son Roach?? The other characters look fit to be played on a PS2.. The faces were fine but the rest of the body was angular and totally disatisfying to look at...As much as I wanted to love the game it was a let down... Especially when so much money was pumped in for mocap... but nothing else really screams PS3...Don't think they tried hard enough to avoid making the game all about arena fights. Looks like I might just be getting rid of it as soon as I'm done with it....

I don't know why this game would get and flak. The cinematics alone are fun to watch as though I am watching and playing in a movie.

I'm worried that I may finish this game too quickly. GOW took me a while to complete and if I must spend $60, then I'd much rather get DMC4 when it drops next year. But, I'll keep an eye out for it - just incase I'm convinced to buy it.

And one more thing.... Has anyone finished this game??/ **SPOILER*** Can you tell me why the burial seen for Nariko looks sooo **BLEEPING*** amazing that the other cutscenes couldn't look that good?? I mean the textures, the shading, it was freakin beautiful.. No jaggies no choppy playback, no collision issues... I mean damn near perfect!!

Because the last scene was CG... You couldn't tell?

I did but I'm wondering why they didn't go all out on all the cut scenes and have them all look like the final one...Some were close and others were not but the last one is the par for what they all should have been

@mystik4l06 - At no time did you write "spoiler' anywhere in your spoiler. stupid.
@ the games duration - this just goes to show that people are trying more to make interactive movies with overkilled graphics rather than video games with some type of replay value. if the game has no on-line play, secrets, or multiple endings, then its gonna be dead on arrival. sure it looks really good, but what else? well, now that they know they can make a really good looking game like this, lets put it into an MMO format that can go on for ages. heck, look that games like Counter Strike:Sorce, Unreal Tournament(the old one), Resistance FoM, and other similar multiplayer games that support more than 30 online at one time. Plus being able to mod it like CSS (zombie hunt ect) and UT (Rpg Mods, Survior mode, Unlimited Jumping, ect), people will continue to play it for years on end until they make an upgrade like UT3. I hope some devs read this and stop half assin games. thanks to that moron mentioned above, i dont want to buy this game now. Looking good is one thing, but im not paying 60+ bucks for a movie.

@Drazden: I read your comments and it left me wondering if you played the same game I did.  HS is flippin' amazing, graphically and otherwise.  I haven't seen any problems with the framerate, I haven't had any tears, or any number of similar problems.

@kojiro and mystik: YA, no where in your stupid post did you mention the word spoiler. And I read your post and I was like "WHAT!". Totally ruined the ending for me, and who knows how many other people. Are you happy now Mystik? And, Mystik, your next post where you go STFU STFU is just sooo ironic and funny now. Haha, you're the one that needs to stfu.

@TALISMAN:.... Yeah... I'm actually wondering if I did indeed play the same game... I've been told by a few people that some of the issues I've come across were non existant when they played it.... I even had out of sync voice to lip movement on Nariko in some cases.... At the beginning of the game after the final battle sequence and then you are taken to Nariko's ascention and the introduction of the scene selection menu when she speaks directly to the camera..... Full on out of sync... And the cut scene with Nariko and Whiptail....I'm gonna try it again and see WTF is up... if it does it again along with the other issues I might just have a badly pressed copy...I have no other explanation...

This game is really good, it has a great story line and great visuals. Its worth having in your collection and the Kai levels are sick when using the motion sensing controls. No complaints here on the game.

cool/

best PS3 game to Date-NO DOUBT!! a 9.5 for me!! 

Well if one of those people who buys a game run home pop it in and dont move till you complete it then i guess this game is short....but i didnt bother me, probably because im busy but man the story was awesome and scenes..it pulled me in *SPOILER*........... Especially when Kia "died"  *SPOILER*.......... I was shocked and hurt........this is probably the best motion capture i have ever seen.....sounded awesome on my surround sound too......sixaxis section kicked but also....my opinion is that this is a must buy

If you buy this game...soon we see Heavenly Sword II...if not ...???
