Am I the only one who thinks these games (Lair and Heavenly Sword) are getting these bad reviews because Sony is rushing them out so that they don't have an abysmal software lineup this year? 6 or 7 hours of gameplay is ridiculous. There isn't even a Gamecube game that short and they are on 1.5 GB minidiscs. There is no way that this game went through a full development cycle if a reviewer can beat it in 6 hours. I think the same thing happened with Lair. A lot of the issues sound like problems that happen when a game is rushed to the market. Is Sony killing its own games in order to make it look like they have a better 07 lineup?

WTF? 6-7 hours? Its more like 10-15 hours.

edit: Heavenly sword has been worked on for 2 years on the ps3, they delayed it to make it better. Funny how ign uk is the only reviewer than gave it anything lower than a 9.5, and gametrailers is loving the game from there preview. Are you sure they didnt rate the demo :P

 Hm....  

Reviewer on a well known gaming site who has played the game (maybe extensively): 

"and it adds up to maybe three to four hours of decent combat in a game which takes a rather embarrassing, and distinctly un-epic, six or seven hours to beat."

Random sony fanboy who has likely only played the 5 minute long demo:

" Its more like 10-15 hours."

 

Who should I believe?
