Heavenly Sword is truly great no matter what reviewers say.
This would be the fifth 90+ game on the PS3 after Resistence ,Motorstorm ,Ninja Gaiden Sigma and Oblivion .
I didnt think IGn would hand Folklore a 9 to be frank .
As for why hyped games are receiving lower scores than unhyped ones I have the feeling that some reviewers are asking games as HS and Lair to be light years beyond current games.HS is a beat-them-up ,best beat-them-up of the generation thus far ,but for some reviewers the game not breaking all the moulds and being revolutionary better than other games of the same genre was reason enough to handle the game a 8 .Funny is when some of those sites gave Pirates of the Caribean similar scores ....
