Heavenly Sword

Heavenly!!!

Reviewed by Motlem on June 30, 2008  |  report this review

I Love This Game!!! I was all about Kratos..... until I met Nariko!! Heavenly sword is the first generation defining game for me. As a big fan of the GOW games, it really is hard for me to say that Nariko makes Kratos look like a chump, but she pulls it off without even breaking a sweat. The visuals in this game are absolutely stunning. The controls are spot on and incredibly responsive, which is extremely important when the action moves at this pace. The storyline was better than most games, but still a little lacking. The cinematic sequences are among the best in any game ever. The production value is awesome. One of the few games that I beat and still want to play again. Even the tension of waiting for the sequel is eased a little by the fiery haired Nariko that haunt my dreams. There are worse things to dream about....like just about anything!! Play it...Love it....Obsess over it!!
