PS3 games at Tokyo Game Show - gamers applaud!

Sony finally gave people a chance to actually play with the upcoming PlayStation 3, and according to the report the people were impressed. The first hands on demonstration of PS3 offered playable versions of “Heavenly Sword” and “Resistance: The Fall of Man”. According to people’s first impressions, the PS3 might very well be worth all the waiting.

“Heavenly Sword” from Sony, which is slated for release some time in early 2007, is a swords and sorcery game featuring a heroine on a stereotypically impossible quest. Keen gamer Rei Itoh from Tokyo spent 20 minutes playing the game this morning and was eager to buy both a PS3 and a copy of “Heavenly Quest.”

“It has such great graphics–the cut-scenes between games are just like movies,” she said, adding that the destructible scenery made hacking to pieces furniture–as well as dastardly opponents–a welcome feature.

Another would-be PS3 owner, Dan Bourque from Canada, waited in line for a taste of the new first-person-shooter (FPS) “Resistance: Fall of Man.”

“We shouldn’t expect too much from a new console at first, as it’s unfair to the developers–they need time to find out what the hardware can do,” Bourque said.

“A good FPS has to be the benchmark of a console, so I am excited about checking out Resistance,” he added.
