Heavenly Sword and Resistance, the first one.

Resistance has me iffy. It's a pretty substandard FPS. it seems to have something interesting about it, but the graphics remind me of Doom. I'm not sold, and maybe it's just about being able to go into cover, shich is something that makes a whoooole lot of sense.

anyway, we'll see how it goes.

Now, Heavenly Sword. I give it a 14 out of 10 for production value, voice acting and in-game/rendered graphics.

The gameplay gets a 7. It's OBVIOUSLY a god of war wannabe, it never hides that, but it fails in a lot of ways if you compare it.

I also HATE HATE HATE quick-time events. i have a horrible short-term memory and to mess up, get tossed back into the fray with a boss that now has almost its entire health makes me angry.

I also hate "unblockable attacks" that are just cheap.

I KNOW i need to increase my ability to learn combos, and I'm sure it will get a whole lot better once i do.

But grr for now!
