KISYUYEKI Posted October 29, 2010 Share Posted October 29, 2010 Already took the Demo and I'm anxious to try it on. The price it's worth it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KinGLee_uk Posted October 29, 2010 Share Posted October 29, 2010 Worth a rental at least, if u play your ps3 2/3 hours every night you can plat this game in a week. I am enjoying and glad i brought it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
8BitArtist Posted October 30, 2010 Share Posted October 30, 2010 not worth $60. maybe $30. not that long of a game to plat and an even shorter game if not going for plat. voice acting is top notch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emme Posted October 30, 2010 Share Posted October 30, 2010 I thought it was worth full price, but it got lowered already. You could get it for like 20£ now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamby Posted October 30, 2010 Share Posted October 30, 2010 My opinion? Awesome. I love it, except the whole story is kinda... really weird. Also, I have another opinion: Ninja Theory has a thing for red heads (this game and Heavenly Sword). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
purifico Posted October 30, 2010 Share Posted October 30, 2010 Best game of the year. Or one of the best, imho of course. Superb voice acting and characters. Gameplay is pretty standard for an action-adventure game. And I loved the story, though it's seems i'm in minority here) If you're going to plat it let me give you a warning - collecting all the tech orbs is going to be a bitch. I currently have this game's plat on hold - needed a break or the tech orbs search would have driven me insane. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arcueid Posted October 30, 2010 Share Posted October 30, 2010 Enslaved is a rental. If you really want to add it to your collection, wait until it's 20 bucks or lower. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thalius Posted October 31, 2010 Share Posted October 31, 2010 Really fun to play game with good scenary and a good story(if you dont look to deep) As of last week i would say rent(if possible, in my country isnt) but now with the announcement of DLC and 3D(with or without a 3Dready tv) might be a buy if you like 3D games.

Dutchlink Posted October 31, 2010 Share Posted October 31, 2010 The game is okay. But after my first playtrough I don't want to play it again, not even for the Platinum. Game doesn't play as well, buggy framerate and freezes. Game is a rental for me, and not worth the 59 euro's I paid for it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allen Walker Posted October 31, 2010 Share Posted October 31, 2010 I have mixed feelings about it. Parts of it I really liked such as the scenery and sense of scale (I love games like that, Shadow of the Colossus being a prime example). And some things I didn't like such as the gameplay which plays like a dumbed down Arkham Asylum and platforming that involves too much hand-holding. The story also could've been deeper, we hardly learned anything about Monkey's past and I felt they could've explained things more. Overall, its a good game but a rental at best. I give it an 8/10.

THe NoMaD Posted November 1, 2010 Share Posted November 1, 2010 I guess it's just me and this is the first time it's happened on any game I've ever played but during this game I get motion sickness. I don't know if it's the jerky camera or when I try to move the camera around monkey and it snaps back into place but I've struggled to play this for more than an hour at a time.

Salvation Posted November 1, 2010 Share Posted November 1, 2010 I think a few reviews were a bit hard on the game, considering Playstation Magaine gave it a 6, but I found the game extremely enjoyable. My only complaint is ofcourse the few plotholes, and ever so confusing ending. Its all good reason to give us a sequel though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Labartu Posted November 1, 2010 Share Posted November 1, 2010 To be honest? I enjoy it, but I dislike the combat mechanics. Maybe I should have backed out of pre-ordering it when I saw Ninja Theory did the game as I also strongly disliked the combat mechanics of Heavenly Sword. Anyway, I like pretty much everything else about the game, and can't talk about the story as I didn't progress pretty far (suck-ass combat mechanics put me off playing it for long periods. ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarioAna Posted November 1, 2010 Share Posted November 1, 2010 What i liked: Characters and interaction. Dialog and voice acting. Story. Environments. Final Boss Fight. What i disliked: Camera camera camera. Simple combat mechanics. Simple platforming which you can never mess up. Repetetive enemies. Technically poor (lots of screen tearing, some slowdown). Overall it's worth a play, but get it second hand cheap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaytech Posted November 2, 2010 Share Posted November 2, 2010 it's a game that you play once and then move on. no replayability at all (except sardistic collectibles). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mephirak Posted November 3, 2010 Share Posted November 3, 2010 So far I am really enjoying this game. I loved Heavenly Sword when that came out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kiwidust Posted November 7, 2010 Share Posted November 7, 2010 I liked it a lot but am far from blind to its problems. The characters and story were good, but uneven and the movitivations were often muddy at best. It didn't hurt things too much, but too much was completely contrived. Every instance, for example, where the characters split up was patently ridiculous - trip "squeezes" through a hole sized for baby rhino's and Monkey is "forced" to find another way. There are times when you can clearly see a way to reach a destination - for example a dumpster against a column - that would suitable for a fat asthmatic but apparently not up to Monkey's standards - he'd rather hope across moving gears and flamethrowing vents. The plot sets up an antagonistic relationship with Monkey and Trip... but we really never see it. There's almost no transition here - we get the set-up and from then on they're pretty much best friends. I like where things ended up, but felt the development to get there was just plain ignored. The combat was fine - nothing special, but nicely streamlined and cinematic. The platforming was just plain cinematic - aside from some very basic timing issues there's really no way to fail it which eliminates much of the suspense (but does make the game move much faster). Unfortunately the game is also also glitchy as hell and has some insane decisions regarding trophy-replayability. Nothing too awful, but it definately makes the mistake of annoying the hell out of you in the after-game which puts a damper on the whole experience. All that said the story and characters, despite their problems, are above average. Honestly the only reason I'm so hard on them is that they're so close to great - if they sucked it wouldn't be worth criticising! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crewsader06 Posted November 7, 2010 Share Posted November 7, 2010 seriously disappointed in what I have heard thus far on this game, I guess I'll wait for a lower price point before I dive in to this one:think: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eye Beams Posted November 8, 2010 Share Posted November 8, 2010 (edited) Hmm, it was okay... after I read the preview stuff from gameinformer, I thought it was gonna be grrrreat, but nope. The combat acts weird at times if you mash buttons (especially ) in combat; and you dodge a small distance. Can be plat'd within a week. Being perceptive will help =P Semi-spoiler: The boss is NOT a unique boss. it's a game that you play once and then move on. no replayability at all That's pretty much the trophy hunter mentality =( No appreciation for games.

Tubiebro Posted November 10, 2010 Share Posted November 10, 2010 I grabbed this game for $25 (with free shipping) from Amazon yesterday... it was their deal of the day. Do you guys think that was a good price for this game? From what I have read the game's strong points are it's presentation, story and characters, while combat and the camera being it's weaker points. I can deal with that.

eLefAdEr Posted November 10, 2010 Share Posted November 10, 2010 not worth $60. maybe $30. not that long of a game to plat and an even shorter game if not going for plat. voice acting is top notch. This game was Amazon's Gold Box Deal of the Day yesterday ($25)... I used my $20 credit from my Black Ops pre-order to get Enslaved for $5. It'll probably go on sale again between now and 12/25, so keep your eyes and ears open, especially in the Good Deals Thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless you're the type of person who slams through story-based games with no MP in under a week to get the plat, I'd say it's definitely worth at least $25. I personally enjoy replaying games with good stories, graphics, music, and voice acting multiple times on different difficulties over a period of several months and don't regret paying $60 for this game (minus some pre-order bonus credits).

Balargon Posted November 10, 2010 Share Posted November 10, 2010 Gameplay is regular, camera sucks and graphics could be way better. Story is awesome and music was ok. Trip is hot. I would give this game a 7 out of 10. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
