More info on that Resident Evil 5 article plz. anyhing new or just bullshit?

It's about racism in RE5, meaning non-news.

Also I am not worried about replayability in Heavenly Sword if Hell mode is indeed as hard as they say it is.

Heavenly Sword the PS3 killer app of '07?

Old, we came to that conclusion with HS's showing at E306. Although the info about GOOD enemy AI is interesting.

People complaining that groups of enemies stalk around and attack in one or two's seem to forget that, that was done on purpose to make it like the Jackie Chan/Bruce Lee fight scenes.

2nd page (skanuj0002.jpg), white text at the top:

Playstation 3 finally gets its killer game of the highest caliber: the system seller. I assume that HS alone will sell more PS3s than Gears sold 360s."

I'm glad the game is getting some good reviews. Like all of Sony's games, it's incredibly focused on cinematic game-making (for a lack of a better term, my head is groggy this morning), which is the perfect way to showcase the PS3's tech. I mean, I want Sony to be rewarded for these kinds of efforts, it must cost so much damn money to make these games and it's so risky to do it on the PS3.

Now come down to $299 PS3, and I'll buy you.

I just hope Ganett doesnt do the review for this on EGM. I can see it now:

"I feels too much like God of War, the controls are terrible I hate the sixaxis"

Garnett has called HS "super tight" and that it doesn't have to be "God of War."

You guys are being extremely harsh on him for no reason.

Because he says things that would get someone permabanned in GAF and most of his comments are so off base, its hard hearing/reading him critique anything. The guy is definitely entertaining though. Him and Shane keep the 1up yours show great.

I still don't understand the hate for Garnnet. He's fair.

I agree for the most part. Although I thought he was being over critical of Warhawk, but he has even admitted to that.

Anyway I really enjoyed the short demo and have replayed it multiple times so I am really looking forward to this. I am not really too worried about the games length. I pretty much expected it to be short and 12-15 hours is good enough more me since there are hard difficulties.

Hmm good and good so far. Glad to hear the AI is really good I was a bit worried about that.
A GI review would seal the deal though. Bah who am I kidding, I'm getting this sweetness first day.:D

Nice score. Game has looked pretty impressive all along. Don't understand the collectables complaint (Needs more? :lol ) and I wish they would go into more detail on how the combat engine is. Better or worse than God of War/Rise of the Kasai/Devil May Cry? How does it control? It kinda is the most important part of the game.

"Guys?" I didn't say anything about him.

Anyway, I would like it if Garnett wasn't on this review because my taste in games does not match up with his at all, not because of some irrational TEH BIAS BS.

Brian Intihar, Shane, and to a lesser extent (Crispin or Matt Leone) are probably the top 3 among reviewers at 1UP whose opinion I appreciate the most.

You do realize that it's a multiplatform magazine right?

Look at the cover, I'm sure Playstation magazines don't cover Metroid, Blue Dragon, Shadow Run, or Ace Combat 6.
