6 - this is

one of the best looking games ever. j

no matter how you twist the truth - the best looking games are all coming to the ps3 and most of them are exclusive. There's not a single game on the 360 that looks this good besides Gears of War.

I hope Halo 3 will look amazing, the screenshots look very very good.

If Mass Effect can get a solid frame rate it will certainly be prettier and hopefully have matching voice actting to boot. Unfortunately there wont be a jump button for either. But when it comes down to it nothing looks better than Resident Evil 5, nothing...

WHO?

"Recenze: Heavenly Sword - Kratosův kat?
13. 8. 2007 | Karel Kališ | formát pro tisk |
Hlavní bolístka PS3? Nedostatek atraktivních exkluzivních her, které by donutily sfouknout prach z Blu Ray mechaniky. Konečně však vypadá, že se situace obrací k lepšímu. Heavenly Sword je první příspěvek přicházejí podzimní vlny slibných titulů. Slabá náplast na čekání nebo obvaz, který kritikům zaváže ústa? Nehádejte, čtěte."

Right.

Rest of reviews:

"Play Magazine 10/10
PSXtreme Magazine 9+
PSW*Uk mag*8/10"

Ah wait, biased Play Mag and the rest also PS mags.

Like Sony fandroids said with Bioshock, lets wait for IGN guys! Where Bioshock BTW got a 9.7.

I don't see this game reaching over a 9. Just got a feeling PSW is most on track with 8 out of 10

Why do you care?

Everybody knows your denial issues with the PS3. We read it every time you post. The truth is that no matter how good having a 360 is, its so much better having a PS3 as well.

Having both would certainly leave you less time to spend on the wrong forum for hours at a time wasting huge amounts of energy posting hate about something you don't have(?) leaving you time to play games instead :)

8 - Problem -

All _Bots on this site will still shyt on the game and it's reviews until IGN, 1Up and Gamespot, etc and possibly OXM review it. :P

So just get ready to hear all of the cranium - cracking comments re: doupe.cz - -it should be Epic. "Did you make that review up, because I've never heard of it...?" "Why didn't you translate it, how do we know that's the real score...?"

That's just the way it is, but I know this game kicks ass. It's just one of many in the list of games coming to PS3 this Fall; and sure to be a bonafide hit. 8|

Like you Sony fanboys did with Bioshock indeed. So we waited and we got the IGN close to a 10 score for that game.

Indeed. We're talking about Playstation baised magazines here. If a game for the 360 got scores like this from XBOX only mags you would think the same.

Especially when some unknown magazine from a former East European country, PS biased, is reviewing a game you should take some care before something is overhyped. Again.

EDIT

Well Madden:

You don't have to translate marks to see the real score, do you?
I am just betting it's overhyped, like Lair was. I've played the demo of Heavenly Sword and God of War II is just better. It really is. Thats why I say this game will make a solid 8 but nothing more.

"We're talking about Playstation baised magazines here."

Wrong. PSX is multiplatform, well respected magazine. PLAY is not the PLAY you're thinking of - there is a UK and US one completely unrelated. One is respected, the other is not....the respected one reviewed HS.

But yes we're waiting for the reviews, doesn't mean we can't look at some beforehand does it?

Idontcare dude lol I cant believe you said heavenly sword kicks more ass than god of war cause dude it doesn't. God of war 2 was so good it truly was it was better than the first one. It was great the combat was more fun not just a button smasher like heavenly sword and it had a block button. Story in god of war > heavenly sword demo

Yes, God of War II was great, but not a button masher? What planet are you from? I remember having to mash a button to lift a door open. Mashed more buttons to kill all the guys that came out. Sure the button changed when I was about to finish them. Then back to mashing again.

Tried mashing buttons when I first played HS demo. Didn't work so well.

Lair getting 3 out of 5. In a 10 scale, that's a 6. After EGM with three panel members giving 5, 5.5 and 6, that doesn't sound like a killer app/system seller to me.

so what? just dont take rundown from that early review so seriously - lot of mentioned issues might have been fixed since old build from July.... wait for reviews written from more actual build of game, like from disk "review 2" in attached foto.
