After your introduction, it was difficult to take anything else you said seriously.

dang, I did not know that everyone would be so snobby about it. I can tell in 20-30 min if I like a game because if I do, then it will pull me in by then. Just sharing my thoughts here, what the heck is up everyone's butt?

I have a flame-resistant suit if you wanna rent it - hourly, weekly and monthly rates available. PM me for details!

On topic - I do think after 10 minutes, if a game doesn't grab me within 5 minutes, I can tell you 95 percent of the time, the game is gonna phail hard. Demos are long enough to give you a feeling of the game. If you don't like the demo, there's no really compelling reason to buy the game.

That said, I don't think Kazadoom is gonna get HS anytime soon ...


You DID play the Blue Dragon demo right? ^_^ Anyway I can say they did a pretty poor job on the demo :) It had some of there worse looking cutscenes, and only featured one of the types of gameplay. So I will say kaza is on ok ground :P It does concern me that he played that demo for 20-30 minutes ... something must have gone terribly wrong because the average finish time was around 6-10 mins :P but hey!


I played the demo and wasn't impressed. However, I was sent a copy of BD for review and had no choice but to play the game. And it was actually a pretty sweet experience. That is why I stated 5 percent of demos aren't good representations. Most are dead on, though.

guy who started this post: were you playing the demo? because that thing was made about a year ago.

 If it was made about a year ago, why couldn't you download it tell september?

 Euhm because Sony didn't wanted it? But I doubt he played the demo the demo was only 5-10 minutes long.

And about this thread starter..I played Okami for a hour and didn't liked it but after a couple of hours I started to like it.

I just think you should not give a comment about a game if you just played it for some little time...

Ya, kazadoom. How did you play the demo for 20-30 minutes. Did you play it through 5 or 6 times?

I played 2 or 3 different I guess they were scenes, not levels. I tried doing a bunch of crap in them spending several minutes in each one. I do not know if it was the demo or not. I was trying to figure out the combat system and picking stuff up and smashing it. I was trying to pull in the detail of the game the best I could.

I'm not the biggest fan of button-mashing beat-em ups, but this game is absolutely gorgeous and it was actually fun to play.  I wouldn't pay the full $60 price tag, but $40 or less sounds good enough to me!

Though I didnt like it neither , I have to say that its a quality title ... Im more of a God of War guy , and HS even though tries it doesnt gets even close to it ...

Strangley enough, a cup of tea is not my "cup of tea".

I wanted SMGalaxy, and was lucky enough to stumble across the demo when I was in a games store buying CoD4. I played it for about 10 minutes, but I wasn't impressed. Too many distractions and on-lookers for me to enjoy it. Needless to say, in my own house, Mario was a blast. I wasn't a fan of God of War's re-spawning enemies, and Heavenly Sword appears to be similar, but I think HS is probably going to be fun when I buy it.......in 2008.......for $20.

lol a cup of tea isn't my cup of tea either! lol

I'm not a fan of any mario game, but to be fair i haven't played one since super mario 3 on GBA, and they were boring, all you did was run to the right and jump while avoiding turtles and a random assortment of enemies including football players who throw tennis balls or something at you?? and then you jump on a mushroom and your guy gets bigger, are they like magic mushrooms or something?

Well i haven't played heavenly sword but i don't think i'll buy it at all, not much of a swordfighting guy unless it's oblivion, but in oblivion theres a ton of free roaming which i love, mainly the only reason i like Grand theft auto is the free roaming.
