I'm done with this thread. Sorry your sly attack on the game didnt work. How about you dont post again so this thread can get back to what it was intended for, talking about how well it will sell. Personally for me i think week 1 it will sell roughly 150,000 in NA.

 Seriously, grow up man. He wasnt attacking the game, he gave it an eight.

Even if you say that Heavenly Sword is 12 hours of total gameplay it is still a short game ...

Most single player only games have single player campaigns which take in the 20 hour range to complete before you start on collecting everything; and most gamers are probably not going to be all that concerned with collecting everything. Most games that have single player campaigns in the 8 to 12 hour range have several modes of multiplayer gameplay which add an element of infinite replayability.

 

I agree it's short, but it sounds awesome, and seriously, if I don't feel like I played it enough the first time, I'll kick more guys asses again. And again. That's why I get these games, not for the story, for the ass kicking.

Riiigght so when he was talking about the game in his post did he talk about how amazing the production values of the game were, did he talk about the great graphics, or the first class voice acting, the interesting take on the combat system with blocking and combat stances, did he talk about how well the motion controls are used, did he talk about how impressive it gets when over a 1000 enemies are on screen in certain sections, did he originally say he gave it an 8 in his post...no he posted a one sentence summary that said the game was barely 5 hours long.

Why does that horse look like a llama?

jimmay, shut up. If you weren't obnoxious, no one would care.

I have the game its one of the best games visually, and gameplay wise, but I agree the length is meh.. But its still an amazing game.

Good think I didnt rent it, I want to have the experince stay with me all the time, best action game since NG.

Yeah, for gods sake Jimmay, if he beat it in five hours and sixteen minutes, he beat it in five hours and sixteen minutes. That is short. I assume you read his review? The length was one of the only things he criticized. And for some people it's a legitimate concern. Saying it's not short......repeatedly.....does not make it a long game. And multiple difficulty levels don't count a replay value, in my opinion.

Sorry but to most people once through it is 7 hours not 5. Saying their is no replay value is a lie when it takes roughly 13 hours to get all the extras by playing well enough to get all 129 style points. When their are dozens of good things to say about the game and only one bad thing, to only talk about the one bad thing is being retarded. How do you think it would go down if i go into the how will mario well sell thread and start critasizing mario for being too easy...yeah im sure that will go down well. This is supposed to be a sales thread, everybody else managed to just talk about the numbers, same goes for the mario, halo and smash bros thread.
