PS3 film "Cinematic" features Andy Serkis and Heavenly Sword

Ninja Theory's Heavenly Sword will be released June this year, but this early, the developers behind the game believe that Heavenly Sword has the potential to become the first real big PlayStation 3 (PS3) title. Even British actor and director Andy Serkis himself believe this. In relation to this, Sony released a new short film for the console titled "Cinematic".

As we all know, even before the PlayStation 3 was released in North America and Japan, one marketing strategy employed by Sony was coming up with rather eccentric short films and TV spots. However, this "Cinematic" one is quite different from all the rest as this short film is pretty much direct to the point.

"Cinematic" showcases the motion capture process used for making the video game Heavenly Sword. It shows how body and facial movements of real-life actors have been translated into the characters of the Heavenly Sword. Serkis, as you all know, is playing the part of King Bothan, aside from being the project's dramatic director.

Heavenly Sword features a girl with only a few days to live. This girl then embarks on one final act of redemption against Smeagol the king and his invading army. Gameplay will focus heavily on martial arts with emphasis on both melee and long ranged weapons.

This story sucks? This story rocks!

I do not see them commenting. Thats right they have nothing to say because all they have in their 360 is Gears of war (only 9 hours game play) after more than a year. Will guess what after one year in PS3 we will have:

FFXII , Heavenly sword, Metal Gear, Lair , Devil May cry, EyeToy , KillZone, Teken and more ...

Have Fun 360 fangays ....

if the graphics really look that good i will give away my ps3 and buy 3 more for me and my friends. this is just insane. f 600$ this system is worth 1800.

It looks cool but i dont think its as great as you guys think it is... it just looks average to me. maybe because us pc gamers think both 360 fanboys and ps3 fanboys are stupid for arguing over graphics that have been available to pc gamers for a few years.

Wow.

Those graphics are available but devs rarely spend the money and time to make games for the pc that look that good.

# darsh — Guest 2007-03-07 09:00

is right

# That's not nice. — Guest 2007-03-07 15:59

Don't make fun of the lesser people, some people like buying 60$ games to play 9 hours. I like paying 50$ for 90hours...LOL(FF12)

Funny how RPG's get more for their price...

Console Vs. PC + The undecided question concievably never argued because a simple fact: PREFERENCE IS GOLD.

And so is my carkey!

Lets see... and lets not make generalizations like "us pc gamers think", kthxbye

# Hurray to negativity. — Guest 2007-03-07 16:08
