Heavenly Sword
Got this last week (nice cheap pre-owned copy).
Loving it so far.
Gorgeous graphics, good (although clichéd) story, great voice acting, & very enjoyable gameplay & combat (not just mindless button bashing).
Does have some frustrating bits, but it's good enough that I persevere (so far) rather than give up in disgust.
To me, its only real fault is the length (I finished the penultimate Chapter last night).
But, then again, I don't really mind short games anymore. Don't have much time to get stuck into huge games now I'm "old" (I love Mass Effect, but it ate nearly 40 hours of my life & many late late nights...ditto for Oblivion, & I haven't even finished that yet), so it's quite nice to be able to play something I can finish relatively quickly.
I wouldn't pay 50 quid for it, but seeing as I got it for £15 (£25 minus £10 store credit) I'm not complaining.
Had much more fun with this (some repetition, but it's enjoyable repetition) than with Assassin's Creed (horribly tedious repetition, followed by horribly tedious repetition).
