Forums - Sony Discussion - What if: Heavenly Sword got poor reviews like Lair?

If HS reviews stated it sucks, fanboys would join forces and start several "the PS3 is doomed" threads. It is so easy (and pathetic IMO) kicking a wounded man lying on the floor. This is getting old, everyone wants to take potshots on the PS3. A lot of Nintendo fans (like myself) have some hatred from the N64 and GC days and that still do not mean we can do the same as some trolls had done in the past. The worst part is that even some fanboys that are in a situation similar to Sony fans *cough - RROD - cough* feel that they have the right to bully PS3 onwers.

Even so I think that some of the Sony fanboys deserved the whole "Lair got low scores" incident. HS and Lair were hyped like they were the Halo or SSBB of this generation when they were just exclusive PS3 games. I do not expect them to suck, but fanboys tried to put those titles on the same level of MGS4 and FFXIII. Expectations were too high.

As long as the graphics look good, people will buy the game. Regardless of what gameplay is like. Thats what its all about. The graphics.

What if Too Human got bad reviews? What if any game got bad reviews?

What is the point of this thread but to attack the PS3 and a PS3 game again...

Sales and reviews don't go hand in hand either, look at Mario Party 8 for that.

Also Flatout: Ultimate Carnage is not going to steal any sales, I didn't even know that game was coming out till you mentioned it and I follow all game news on a daily basis.

The PS3 will lose September cause of Halo 3 and nothing else. I expect very good things from Heavenly Sword though, both in reviews and sales.



Thanks to Blacksaber for the sig!

Heavenly Sword has already received a lot of praise. I don't think it has much to worry about in the bad review department. But, if the game gets bad reviews, then that is too bad.

I will buy the game regardless and judge for myself because I have seen absoluitely nothing that would make me doubt this game.

What if Bodhesatva got banned and everyone saw his pic and thought he was ugly? Wow he'd be pretty embarrased then. He'd be a loser. Do you agree?

I don't think Legend11 is ever reluctant to put the PS3 or its game library down (or anything that isn't the Xbox 360 for that matter). Stating that a game is "poorly reviewed" based on one magazine review is a mediocre argument. I played the demo and I'm not interested in it personally, and I don't think it should receive poor reviews, but I don't know too much about the combat system outside the demo anyway.



I think Heavenly Sword will get better reviews than Lair overall but Lair will sell better. Just a feeling.



 

 

Where did LAIR get bad reviews? Links pls?

I know of EGM. But where else?
