By now you'll have read Eurogamer's recent Heavenly Sword first impressions. By now you'll have downloaded the Heavenly Sword demo released on PSN last week. By now you'll have been able to finish it approximately 47 million times. By now you've probably decided it's too short and doesn't really show us anything we didn't know.
There have definitely been complaints. First up, it lasts about five minutes. Second, it's heavy on Quick Time Events, where control is reduced to prompted button-presses as you slide down ropes or leap from tumbling pillars. Third, combat isn't as complex and nuanced as something like Ninja Gaiden or Devil May Cry. Fourth, the framerate's a bit wobbly
The PlayStation 3 may not have been the strongest generation for Sony, but there were still some diamonds in the rough that deserve a revisit as PS5 remasters.
Even if they could just remaster and put on PSVR2, some would still look great as VR titles and could do a whole lot to bolster the headset w these exclusives! I'd imagine the investment of reworking these titles into VR would be way less than building new games from the ground up, and they could be amazing experiences, and VR often makes flat games feel fresh again. The Resistance and Killzone games are particularly what I want to see!!
The time is perfect for a resistance fall of man game campaign coop multiplayer
Resistance was ok but Warhawk and Starhawk was better and kept me coming back for almost a decade of fun and petty revenge on the loud mouth unskilled players 🤣
Edit I loved capture the flag dropping the pot on the flag carrier was extremely satisfying as well as transforming your plane in bot form and stumping them to death 😱

Dante's inferno... an excellent GoW inspired game. So sad the sequels will never be.
heavenly sword was such a short, but amazing game. that game should be prime material to be made into a download only remaster.
I really enjoyed Castlevania, but struggled to get into it again reattempting it a few years back. I still think it does another of things well; story, presentation, level varietily and art style at least. Gameplay maybe has not stood test of time unfortunately which makes it a chore to get through.
Games exclusive to the PS3 are doomed to overly harsh scrutiny.
If you like what you see guys buy it, if your not sure rent it first.
Judge the games for yourselves, do not be swayed either way by people with their own agendas.
I love the demo, yes it's short but the question is, when it's finished do you want more? The answer is 'Hell Yeah'. I can't wait for this to come out and besides the game play, the cutscenes, voice acting and motion capture is the best I have ever seen in a video game. Bring it on!!!
Deary me - the tone was so regretful and sounded negative, but they remained to give it compliments. I don't know what's up with Eurogamer at the moment - they need to sort themselves out and get some better journalists.
i never liked eurogamers they are just thick. Gamespot and ign are the best for previews Etc
AMzing how all those WACK 360 games got wonderful reviews lol but Heavenly Sword gets battered oh my god just think all those horrible 360 games that got 8's & 9's.
Video game industry just isnt what it used to be, itsall politics now. Example will be the EA SPORTS games all running at 60 frames per second. With Microsoft announcing this at E3 press conference its demostrates how microsoft PAID EA off to make that happen. We all know The EA Sport games can all run at 60 frames per second on PS3. SOunds like somebody was paid off!!!!
All the sites are paid off to bash PS3 games so nobody wont buy them, when there actually great games!!!
I'll admit though the framerate could use alittle work, but thats it!!! The game is going to be awesome, the cut scenes and mini games is what immerse you into the game!!!!!!!!!!!
