As one of the first PlayStation 3 games to catch people's eyes, way back at E3 2006, Heavenly Sword drew obvious comparisons to God of War, Sony's hugely popular action adventure franchise. The recent release of the Heavenly Sword demo on the PlayStation Network allowed everyone to see precisely how different the franchises were from each other. The demo itself was well received, although a bit short, but GameSpot has recently been lucky enough to get their hands on an extended build of the game featuring an entire chapter of gameplay.
The PlayStation 3 may not have been the strongest generation for Sony, but there were still some diamonds in the rough that deserve a revisit as PS5 remasters.
Even if they could just remaster and put on PSVR2, some would still look great as VR titles and could do a whole lot to bolster the headset w these exclusives! I'd imagine the investment of reworking these titles into VR would be way less than building new games from the ground up, and they could be amazing experiences, and VR often makes flat games feel fresh again. The Resistance and Killzone games are particularly what I want to see!!
The time is perfect for a resistance fall of man game campaign coop multiplayer
Resistance was ok but Warhawk and Starhawk was better and kept me coming back for almost a decade of fun and petty revenge on the loud mouth unskilled players 🤣
Edit I loved capture the flag dropping the pot on the flag carrier was extremely satisfying as well as transforming your plane in bot form and stumping them to death 😱

Dante's inferno... an excellent GoW inspired game. So sad the sequels will never be.
heavenly sword was such a short, but amazing game. that game should be prime material to be made into a download only remaster.
I really enjoyed Castlevania, but struggled to get into it again reattempting it a few years back. I still think it does another of things well; story, presentation, level varietily and art style at least. Gameplay maybe has not stood test of time unfortunately which makes it a chore to get through.
Hope they manage to smooth out that framerate though, because an unstable framerate can kill a game one-handed.
I'm really on the fence about this game. I have it pre-ordered but I'm going to wait for the reviews before I fully commit. I downloaded the demo and after playing I still haven't got used to not having a jump button. The story does look incredible though.
with a jump button, imagine the combo's you would be able to pull of then.
The game is still good though! The Hack and slash elements are really addictive, because of the many ways you can dispatch enemies. when I finally got the hang of air combos, I was like man, there aren't enuff guys to kill, and then when you get to the second part of the demo, the guys down there dodge all of your attempts to air juggle the bastards.
Fun game
really though, think about all of the action games with the jump button. What else is it really used for besides platforming? In battle you use it to go into a attack on occassion, its really not that useful when you think back on all those hours of GOW or any other action games. Did anyone miss the jump button when they were hacking away as Link in Twilight Princess? I rest my case :P
