1.1 - i guess
I mean I guess its a good review but what do the polish know did they not put screen doors on submarines and invent the solar powered flashlight?
edit: wow adriokor, I guess in Poland you do not have Jokes. See in this country (United States) we have these comments that impose a humorous response from others which we call jokes. Some jokes are geared in good fun to other countries and races.
For example I am of Cuban decent. So the joke "What is Cuba's national anthem?" the response is "Row row row your boat" see thats humorous since the majority of Cubans coming to this country come on boat.
Here we also have jokes that are called Polack jokes which ironically enough were actually Italian jokes and before that were Irish jokes.
So before you see a stupid joke comment and go "i take offense" well grew up and release that hey its a joke.

Buddy you are so ignorant, I take offence to your sad ass criticism at the Polish culture and people, if you want to make stupid remarks about other nationalities, look at your own.
BTW: the Polish invented many great things such as the Helicopter, maybe you ll think next time you speak.

haha ariokor, its just a staple over here with polish jokes. The peeing in the corner in a round room, all sorts of em. But we make fun of everyone, blacks, hispanic ( like me ), trailer trash, blondes, your momma, don't be offended, we makes jokes of everyone. If you can't laugh at yourself, then well, you've got some problems.

2.3 - Why would you guys do that.
Why would you even bring these two guys up. You guys are worse than those two if you just said what you think they are going to say about this game. Next time just talk about the game and don't say anything about an Xbot and you will see that they will become more and more mature about their responses.

When I bought the PS3, i also purchased Motorstorm. A month later, I made the mistake of buying RS:Las Vegas. I played that for about a day and I haven't touched it since.
I'm starting to believe that first first party games are the way to go for the PS3, with the exception of games like MGS4, and the FF series. Atleast for the type of games I'm looking for.
I pulled out the original "Wii"(NES) at home a few days ago , and I gotta say, that system still has THE most fun games of all time. Master Blaster anyone?
PlayStation, and Nintendo can take my money. M$, can take my man juice after what they pulled with me withe the original xbox.
I'm 95% sure this game will go on my list of my favorite games of all time.
Not that anyone cares. I'm done ranting.

10 - But, it's a Polish Mag!
They would probably plug a controller into a toaster, play with it for an hour and give it a 7.
Edit: BTW, I'm part-Polish and that was just a self-deprecating remark, not a PS3 bash;)

I'm sure it kicks way more ass than a toaster, but to the Poles something shiny is at least a 7. If it moves and has different colors, it's at least a 9.

I tried the demo and theres only one thing that bugged the hell out of me the blocking. I wish it was like god of war with the l1 blocking with the automatic blocking of heavenly sword I just ended up button smashing and praying for the best. I cant wait for god of war 3 though hope its sooner than later.

hope for the best? Leg go of the buttons - wait for the hit and counter. GOW didn't have counters - you have to press a button to counter - it's much more satisfying than a normal boring block.

The only thing that i didnt like about the game (comming from someone who hads in fact played it) is the bouncing ragdoll effect. When a dead enemy flies through the air and lands on his head and bounces just as high, it makes it look cartoony. They could lower the "bounce" by 75% at least.

12.5 - the bloking works fine
remember you basically have 2 different level attacks to block.
So having to hold a block button plus hold a stance button would have been very cumbersome.
Blocking is easy, it takes skill to be able to go from blocking and countering the light attacks to blocking and countering a sudden medium attack.
Try going through the demo countering alone and not attacking.

agreed, thats what i did. i thought the demo was really short but if you try to learn all the skills it takes alot longer to get through. i play the demo at least once a day to get the in-air combos and throwing people around in slow-mo down.
