Got heavenly sword, anyone else?

[Dom]

Not got on it yet got other things to do before hand, the casing and the manual is nice the disc looks cool aswell and the in-case art behind the manual/disc looks nice aswell. cost £40.00 which was expected But unfortunately warhawk was nowhere to be seen lol going to have to find out why.

GYG will be sending it sometime soo. I should get it next week sometime.

Well dont expect it to work, My ps3 has crashed during installation like 4 times now lol im fed up, Might be either a faulty copy, not had the ps3 long enuff or used it enuff for system failure or it just takes that long to install compared to other games, it has a chance of crashing mid way thru, im gonna keep at it i know when it crashes i can tell if its gonna work or not now, letcha know if I prevail lol

The repairing wudnt work either when i turned it off mid way, it is now working, might of done the trick. weird, u need jusunder 2.1gb free for hs, its 130 for rfom

[Dom]

Sorted, got it working, i made a new user, and repaired my corrupt data, I went afk for a hr or two installing (hoping the bar would budge) but it didnt, the bar wasnt moving but when the repairing finished, i had from 120mb to 2045mb or something, so it worked. heads up for upcoming buyers who might come across this prob.

The game. Yeah, games need to be installed. The drive is slow, so things get 'installed' to speed up loading. Downloaded demos need to be installed too.. for whatever reason.

On topic, I'll have the game.. as soon as it arrives.

I never knew that! That's one way to make it so every box has a HDD. I still with the 360 was HDD required.

Have it and played into chapter 2 last night. Its pretty cool. The aftertouch six-axis works good for ranged weapons after a practice or 2. Really nice graphics. I did see a slowdown for like half a sec at the start of a scene or 2 but overall very smooth and seems faster then the demo. The boss fights so far might be too easy, but hopefully they get harder. They actually tell you what to do to dodge attacks instead of making you figure it out which is kinda lame. I don't mind having to fight a boss 10 times to win but so far I have won first shot each time. In fact I think I have only died once and it was an arrow shooting part where i didnt notice an enemy. If this game was say 16 hours long it would be an easy 10, but since I hear at least its only 6-7 hours its an 8.

You hafta install it? Really??? The only game thats done that for me was Warhawk. Motorstorm and RFOM didnt....weird.

[Calypsi]

Yeah there is a decent install, it takes like 5-10 min I'd say. I am not sure if its a preload of textures or what.

The controls are ultra-slick in this game. The aftertouch is alot of fun, but what I like even better is that when Nariko is mauled by an enemy combo and is knocked back in the air you can override the downtime it takes to fall to the ground by shaking the controller slightly and she uses the chains to cling to the target and come back down on her feet.

I wish Ninja Gaiden had something like that b/c there has been times where I've been combo-juggled into the air and basically renders you helpless.

[Dom]

Calyp, use analog for aftertouch SO MUCH easier, one game im not liking the six axis with not so bad for other games, L1 and triangle then whilst enemy in mid air, shake ur controller upwards to do a aerial, this works well using six axis.

Im on the last boss now the last stage of him ect, Proving pretty difficult as both mine and his health goes down soo slow one attempt takes ages lol.

My fave char is KAI i think shes class lol funny/crazy character and I love shooting enemies in the nuts using aftetouch.

[Dom]

Also ,upon completion i hear you uplock new modes, i.e hard, hell mode. Its ment to be 2-3 hit deaths on hell when playing against bosses.

[Dom]

Finished the game in 5hrs and a half ish didnt take proper count its a roughly 6hr game, amazing graphics,gameplay and storyline the cutscenes are beautiful. With a amazing ending (imo some might not agree).

[Peench]

I'm gonna have to pick this one up soon. For 6 hours tho it will probably be a rental. Sounds awesome tho! I enjoyed it when I played the demo material so I can't wait to play the final!

[laxgod]

You guys convinced me to get it. I played for about 30 minutes so far. It's certainly enjoyable, sad that it'll last only 6 hours.

[Dom]

Glad I convinced ya ^_^

The game is really godamm amazing I am saddened it only lasted 6 hours I want it to last forever lol, the story really sucks ya in, The loss of a character makes ya get a lump in ya throat its weird lol but rlly good at the same time, its like watching a movie and you see your favorite character die lol its like "damm" when in most games you'll just go, weird, didnt expect that.

the facial animations, music and sound is amazing I still cant get over it, i am certainly looking forward to heavenly sword 2 and KILLZONE 2 when thats out. Im liking what I see sony! keep getting us some good titles!
