Heavenly Sword
This promising game has a cinematic quality but the good news is that it actually plays as good as it looks. The game involves a stunning red-headed beauty fighting her way through various waves of baddies.
Our heroine can utilise various objects within the arena, such as crates and tables, with which to fight.

As with most fighting games you will have to master various button combos to defeat the baddies, especially the Boss at the end of each level. You are able to switch between her main hook blades and a massive sword, each of which had their own unique attributes and deciding which is best to use at any stage is integral to your progress.
One of the other cool aspects of combat is the counter system, which lets you perform reversals once you've blocked your foes attacks. Successful attacks and cool combos will fill a meter in the lower left-hand side of the screen. Once the meter is full you can hit the circle button to unleash a special, devastating combo that's both painful and cinematic.
