It's been quite a long time since our last first 10 minutes, and since a story heavy game like Heavenly Sword is most appropriate for these videos I bought the game on saturday. 2 more videos will follow during the week, along with my impressions.
Update: Second part is online, with a lot of not so precise Sixaxis gameplay.
Update3: Third and last part available.

Well in my opinion from playing the demos of Sigma and HS, HS is more fun.

hey, at least HS has you know....a story. Actually let me not be so mean, an "interesting" story.

I will respectfully disagree with Itagaki here having been lucky enough to play Heavenly Sword for myself. I intend to go back and play Sigma after HS though to see if I get on with it better then. It's a great game to be sure, we just never say eye to eye.
Itagaki has his style and I find him quite entertaining. Whilst he's controversial in any interviews where they actually try to get him to expand on what he's saying, he's usually got a lot to say on why he thinks they suck. As he happens to have made some great games he's got the minerals to back it up.

COD 4's pre-alpha stage looks better than most game's gone gold stage.
E3 2K7- best. e3. ever.
Saying you cant find animaton in Japan is like saying you cant find food in Italy. Its simply not true.

I gotta say though...Ninja Gaiden >>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Heavenly Sword
I am a very big Ninja Gaiden fan so I prefer that over Heavenly Sword anytime.
But I think that the man behind this amazing franchise and the future NG 2 :D, should just take it easy and just like the game and not trash talk over it.

wow, gone few days and look at what my thread turned into
anyway with all respect to itagaki, he shouldn't trash talk other devs, thats immanture,childish imo. acting like uneducated brat won't do him any good.
lets see what NG2 has, he already dissapioted me with NGS going to ps3, and with possible NG2 going multiplatform lets see if he spends enormouse resources getting the best graphics

Well I agree with him and the button pressing sequences. I hated that in god of war. Sometimes I see a cinematic and I enjoy what I'm seeing and not ready to do the button sequences, I see a big triangle appear and I'm too late. I like the button sequences to kill off a monster, but during the cinematics it's useless.

But there are other reasons why I think NG is better, and those reasons were apparent to me right away.
For example, not being able to jump in HS is a big deal to me. Right off the bat I thought to myself, wow... I really wish I could jump.
Then, I really wished I could run instead of having one speed. In NG, you can move much faster by using wall running and jumping ninja skills to move around faster.
Then I really wished I could run and slide or do a big jump kick.
In short I just felt the fighting engine wasn't very flexible. Counters are nice, juggle combos too - but it just isn't the same.
Not being able to jump makes the world feel much less interactive.
I'm not reviewing HS, I'm just saying that I can clearly tell from the demo that if I want to run around killing things with a sharp weapon I rather do it in NG than in HS.

Amusing little video "recapping" the heavenly sword demo, and mentions of the RE5 trailer. Pretty entertaining.
