Heavenly Sword Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Heavenly Sword is truly an amazing and entertaining experience.My brother and I rented this game and played thorough it in 2 nights.It probably took us about 8-10 hours to get through since some of the bosses were a little tricky.What stood out to me the most about this game was its production value.I have never seen acting so good in a game before, and not just the voice overs.You really began to love the heroes in the game and truly hate the villains, one in particular.Much of this level of quality was due to Andy Serkis (Lord of the Rings' Gollum, King Kong) who headed up the motion capture and voice recording as well as playing the part of the main antagonist in the game, King Bohan.

Everything was done so well down to the smallest detail, the level of quality was outstanding.The game looked great in game and during the cut seans.There were many moments where we had to stop playing and just take in the beautiful landscape.This is definitely a game to show off your PS3 system, I like the rope running sequence myself.

The game play was also top notch.It focuses mostly on melee combat and shooting.There is no real platforming to speak of.Switching between different fighting styles (speed, ranged, and strong) and performing counters was innovative and a lot of fun.As were the shooting sequences using the sixaxis to guide arrows and cannon balls were fun as well and a great use of the technology.Overall the controls were tight and worked very well for this type of game.

I would have to say that Heavenly Sword is up there with my most memorable gaming experiences and is truly an amazing game.If you own a PS3 you owe it to your self to buy or at least rent this game.You won't be sorry.
