Description
A dramatic tale of revenge sees Nariko, a fiery red-haired heroine, embark on a quest for vengeance against an invading King and his army. The story builds around the ancient Heavenly Sword, which once belonged to a powerful deity. It can never be wielded by a mortal without it slowly but inevitably draining their life-force. The Heavenly Sword itself can transform into three distinct weapons, each with its own accompanying fighting stance used by Nariko to vary combat styles. Coupled with real-time story involvement and amazing set-pieces, Heavenly Sword feels like a blockbuster action movie that takes combat gameplay to new heights.

This is by far the most visually arousing game ever made for a console. The PS3 is finally showing its true colors and some exclusivity as well. The game plays very well and incorporates the SIXAXIS motion control into the combat damn near flawlessly. The story was very well scripted and the voice acting was awesome (Andy Serkis added a lot of character to this project), it had me hooked the whole time. I think its fair to say that Heavenly Sword deserves the ‘Goddess of War’ comparison, it really is great. The only one thing that I can complain about was that it lasted all not that long. I’d say about 6-7 hours of gameplay was involved. Although very short, I enjoyed every minute of it. A must buy for any PS3 owner.
I was thinking this game was gonna be kind of like, a female version of God of War. But the more it changed on me, the better it got. It’s nothing like God of War, although it is comparable. It’s a well thought out game, even though it’s old now. I still like it.
I must say, I tried the demo first and didnt like it. Then I traded my old Resistance Fall of Man with Heavely Sword and I love it. I dont think is as short as people say it is just tooo fun and time goes fast when a game is this fun. I really really like it. The characters, I mean, its been a while since I`ve had “feelings” for a video game character (last time was in Final Fantasy 7), but this time Kai just took over, she is just amazing, its just really cool.Another thing I love is the language option, I am learning german and I just enjoy playing this game in german sooo much.Anyway, my favorite PS3 title so far. Great game
I really enjoyed using all the controls of the ps3 controller. I didn’t even realize it could do some of the things it did without this game.Game itself is fun. I enjoyed it.
Honestly like new! I love this game, yes its an old for 2007 but its still so good!! graphics are great, controls are still great. Perfect gaming era
:: Overall ::It is certainly worth it. Despite the few flaws, I was rather impressed by all it had to offer.:: Quick Review ::- The Good -Interesting and unique (as far as I know) storyGood use of cut scenesMix of hack/slash and shooterSmooth gameplay, load time minimalGreat visuals/audio- The Bad -Really shortCan be annoying to watch the same cutscene again (if you happen to die)Difficult missions/features:: Detailed Review ::- Gameplay -It’s your usual hack/slash game with some shooter thrown in. Most of the game is played with the main character Nariko though there are a few sections where you control a second girl called Kai. What makes this game different, in my opinion, is the fact it seems more movie-like then game. It is littered with cutscenes, though that seems to be how games are now, but each is unique and makes excellent use of the break. Even in mid fight, you might preform a combo in which the camera zooms in and gives you a front row seat to watch the destruction. The video below shows some of these mid battle cutscenes.- Storyline -I was impressed by the storyline, despite being short. It has it’s twist and unique attributes that make you want to continue. Not to give anything away, it mostly focuses one your clan trying to protect the Heavenly Sword from the power crazed King Bohan that wants it. This game takes a different approach, sorta telling you the end at the beginning. If you play it through in one sitting, you will see where the begin.
Great story and gameplay
AN UNDERATED GAME.
I’m sure this is the best looking game ever made to date .. Graphics are so realistic you start getting confused weather it’s a game or interactive movie ..Chapter’s difficulty is fairly good .. not too easy and not too tough. nice blend for casual games ..People say it’s too short, but for casual gamer like me .. it’s just fine ..
I like this game overall. The images and intros are great. There is a lot of demos movie-like and many grphics to enjoy. Many enemies to kill and they fight smartly against you, in packs. That is a major note, since I get bored of killing foes in a mechanical fashion. This is not the case. Lot of movements and tchniques makes this game almost unique. I just miss a little tha hability to jump, magics and spells to kill more enemies when the are too many and a freer camera to enjoy the landscapes! In general it is a great game to play.
