The presentation and story were crazy good! but the combat was awful!!!!!! I HATED those mini-games where you had to aim a shield or arrow, was so frustrating and most enemies block everything you attack with, takes forever to get through them. I hit a point where I just didnt care to finish this game, was so boring
I don't mean to offend but making a hero with a japanese name with no japanese culture involved. They like copying jap games but something always is missing and its culture. DMC is going to change coz they removed asian culture from DMC.
4 years ago, Wow, time just flies away, and now everyone(even me) is waiting for Ninja Theory's DMC reboot, I can't wait. I can't understand how everyone is bothered of Dante's new look and style, To be very honest, I got nothing against Dante's new look and style, and combining the battle elements with Heavenly Sword(which I hope Ninja Theory will do) will makes the game fresh, new, epic, like a new IP, I can't wait.
This game is underrated. I rented it when I first got my ps3 years ago. Wasn't many games for the console at the time but I picked this up not knowing anything about it. I was pleasantly surprised. I bought the game a few months back and it was great to play it again. I wish more people would hop off the online cock and pick up some of the great games like Enslaved, Heavenly Sword, Mirror's Edge and others.
Why do they keep comparing this to God of War? I don't care about that game, just review this one. But yeah apart from that this game have some ANNOYING part where you have to shoot and aim to hit certain areas. Hecka annoying.
This game is the most underrated game on the PS3. This game deserves another look for a sequel. This game is very fun and has a lot of potential to be great.
Why do people say a game is only this amount of hours. I've beaten games in 20 hours that reviewers say only take 7-8. Do they just rush to the end as quick as possible? Of course your not going to like a game if you play it like that.
wow you can tell he doesn't like this game even though he's giving it credit, you can tell by the sound of his voice. like he has a personal vendetta with it.
I got this game for £8 and and ' I ' think its better then all my other games cod4 cod5 cod6 (probably once you get used to it its dead easy) and its good wish they make heavenly sword 2 and it will be online. also check out darksiders Im getting it soon and the demo is 1hr of awsomeness.
@ wilson69r - IGN gave BioShock on PS3 a lower score because they had more time to fix the bugs the 360 version had, but they didn't. That seems reasonable to be since the PS3 version was out a year later >_>
have u ever seen a better visual scene than the last one where u r in front of an army of thoysands ????This game is sick... the review is reallly unfair...
the game is excellent i dont see why the review is critisizing it.
the combat is excellent, very satisfying and very cool even when u pull off a simple move.Graphics are the best i have seen in a ps3 game so far, especially the cutscenes. the minigames are good. the thing with the button pressing 1/10 of a second is a little exaggerated but im glad they put it in cuz it keeps the action going very well.lip sync is also amazing and this game is one of the few that use sixaxis motion superbly!
this dude really sucks at reviewing. anyway ign is just an xbox fanboy website so they have to say bad shit about ps exclusives. theres only one dude from igns ps team that can seriously review. i saw two different reviews both from igns ps team: one dude(i think it was the dude from this review) said that uncharted had no replay value and basically sucked and gave it a7, maybe8(dont remember); the other said the exact opposite and was so fucking excited about the game and gave it a9.2.
im not saying xbox sucks cause it actually doesnt, so dont go starting any console wars. its a great console even though i hate it. but the fanboys are just ignorant critics telling lies just so every xbox comrade feels like xbox still egemonizes. if they see a great game but its not for xbox they just say it sux. if heavenly sword was an xbox exclusive i bet this dude wouldve given it a9.
i never knew that. i prefer ps3 but i noticed if theres a game on ps3 and 360 for ign the ps3 version gets a lower rating. eg bioshock 360 9.8 ps3 9.4
@wilson69r They do two separate reviews for each console, BioShock's lead platform was the Xbox360 so of-course it's going to have worse graphics on the PS3 since it's been ported from one console to another. Same goes for PS3 games being ported to the Xbox360. I don't know how large or small the graphical difference is for BioShock but a 0.4 seems fair.
Actually, Bioshock came one year later for the PS3, and it was generally agreed that it had better graphics than its old X360 counterpart plus some kind of multiplayer. Don’t know why it had a lower score, probably because it was caught in the wave of xbotism game sites had at that period, a clear example of it being gamespot witch gave the first Uncharted a 8.0. I’m glad all that ended around the time MGS4 came out.
@6shqip6tar6 Actually it was given a lower score because there were NO improved graphics, the numerous bugs werent fixed and the added content wasnt that good. That said its still my favorite game ever, no matter what I play it on

@wilson69r Yeah, that's due sad human beings that unfortunately exist in our world. They're commonly known as xbots, but we shouldn't blame them. They're just insecure about themselves.
Bioshock was originally on the 360 and was ported to PS3 later (meaning higher expectations for games), and 360 usually does better in cross platform games because it is easier to code for (they can make the 360 version have a higher frame rates without much extra effort). Put simply, despite the PS3 better Hardware the 360 multiplatform games tend to run and look better (Not being a fanboy, That just how it works). obviously PS3 exclusives look and run great
is it me or does this game remind ppl of GOW atleast i do thats probably the reason it has not a very high rating i would give it a low rating to if its just a ripp off from God Of War
That is an awesome video for that game! Anyone here Halo Fans? I bet most of you are. I'm getting my copy of Halo 3 for free at halo3.wantsDOTit(replace DOT with .) I also get a free xbox 360 elite system.
Everyone better go get there copy for free too at:
This is the worst score i've seen for this game all the other reviews were 8's and 9's and on 1up they said this game was 10 hours and gave it a high score go to game rankings and see all the review scores and you will see all of them are good except for this one
