Heavenly Sword $28.31 shipped @ Amazon

Gotta love people who can't do even a little research into the production of the game before deciding their wikipedia-fed opinion is the only correct one. Oh well, can't save 'em all.
 
[quote name='Vortextk']Let's see how many more times trophies can be brought up. They're just that important.[/QUOTE]

It's amazing that people actually consider them when buying a game. I cannot understand it for the life of me.

Unless you're getting in-game rewards, I think you're a psychopath.
 
In my opinion the trophy system is flawed and there is no point in getting them unless they unlock something. I don't care for your ps level when your getting trophies by completing in game tutorials. I'll care when bronze trophies are given out for beating the game on easy.

Apparently those points are important to people for some reason. Pretty sure I saw people saying they were buying both versions of FFXIII just so they could fill out both their achievements and trophies.
 
Game was a great, quick, ride. Once you beat it there is no reason to play again. This game would be helped greatly if they gave it a trophy patch...
 
[quote name='anubis20']I got this off craigslist for $20 way back when it was still $60[/QUOTE]

It is still $60 MSRP. It's out of print now and Sony never lowered the price on it or made it a Greatest Hits title. Every other retailer already clearance this out with Amazon just hanging on to whatever they still have and listing it at 56.99 for the most part.

I think that reason is obvious. Some people don't lead meaningful lives.

THIS

I will never play a game because of the trophies or achievements. I love a nice long game but I am not wasting a bunch of extra time on a game for worthless pixels and numbers.

Neither will I. But if a game has achievements I will put more efforts to accomplishing the tasks of the achievements rather than just speeding through the game. Achievement present insteresting challenges that spice up the game.
 
I liked it but I wouldn't consider myself a hard core gamer. Took me about 10 hours and the last couple battles took me a few times to beat. So yeah, probably short but I got my $5 out of it (Hollywood Video sale). Once my friend is done with it, I'll trade it back in somewhere and get mey $5 back.

[quote name='Adamu Kuezada']Heavenly Sword Quick Review!
The good:
Great visual design
Sharp Controls(Except for maybe the six axis part)
Game runs smooth
Great voice acting

The bad:
It's too short.

This game goes for 27 bucks used at gamestop. Great thing about PS3 users is that they get their used games like new lulz.[/QUOTE]

The game doesn't run smooth at all. That's my one complaint with the game, the choppy framerate.

I liked it so much renting I knew I would buy it when I could get it sub 20, which I did when it was a GS special one week for 25 bucks and they had a 20% off coupon for PS3 as well.

Great game and fantastic production values for a really short game. Only good game I know that is shorter though is GOW:COL for PSP.
 
I'd seriously like to know why the game is still priced so high. How can Sony justify it? Am I the only one that's heard of "supply and demand?" I don't think anybody is buying it at the insane price it's been. Demand goes down, the price should have dropped a long time ago.
 
No framerate problems for me, either. I also replayed levels multiple times to get extra content unlocked, so I wouldn't say it was too short. Especially when you can burn through the CoD games and even the almighty Bayonetta in just a few hours. Just remember to turn the motion controls off, its much better without them. Very underrated game in my opinion.

Pretty sure you just answered your own question. Supply is low.
