I downloaded only 70 mb so far... with my 1 Mb adsl line it will take a while but review is very positive:

Most of us, however, have not sat down to play Heavenly Sword, a game that employs such high-grade Hollywood production techniques, it could easily convince you that it is a sign of what we can expect to define the future of video games. From the first cut-scene it strikes you. The emotion in the characters' faces is simply superb and, combined with both voice acting and motion-captured physical performances from true legends of Hollywood like Stephen Birkoff, creates some of the most compelling watching seen in any game.

Cut-scenes aside, in game the visuals are outstanding. The view in each level stretches out to a fantastic distance, and throughout the game there are moments when you will clearly see distant walkways and outbuildings that you will find yourself exploring sometime later.

Both the soundtrack and the audio effects are incredibly reactive to on-screen action, and are primed to respond and flex instantaneously as the game twists and turns.

However, having spent considerable time on several levels of the almost complete game, I can happily inform you that so far the gameplay is feeling great.

Heavenly Sword also features some of the most instinctive and workable Sixaxis control seen on the PS3 so far.
