A game that was long in development, Heavenly Sword for the PS3 is a game that is like an epic martial arts movie with great action.

What I liked:

  • Good balance of gameplay difficulty, it doesn't get too punishing.
  • Graphics really shine and even 2 years later are better than some current games.
  • The martial arts feel permeates the entire game and makes it feel like films such as Hero and House of Flying daggers.
  • Great performances by the voice actors. Andy Serkis shines as usual.
  • Story was great and they didn't cheap out with a lame potential sequel cliffhanger.

Overall:

Great rental that is a lot of fun to play. This game is only 6 hours long, though it is an awesome 6 hours and there is no filler like in other games.
