Man i hope the gameplay holds up, in that boss fight i was hoping to see some special power moves or magic attacks, but it was the same old hack n slash? the visuals seem to take a BIG dip from cut scean to gameplay visuals as well, i'm looking to get this for my ps3 as soon as i pick one up, i just hope it keeps me interested enough to finish the game.

Looks great to me. Playing the demo really helps you understand the videos better. Before I was pretty confused as to how the battles took place exactly, but over all its pretty well balanced.

Once the enemy is knocked into the air, you can use the SIXAXIS to jump.

Sweet!!! Although Is anybody noticing framerate drops which are quite frequent I must say. other than that, looks ACE!

EDIT Never mind the framerates. it was because I was watching it on the flash thing. totally different when I downloaded the videos. :D

*coughn00bcough* :p

Yeah you can use it in the demo.
Go to the "combat/controls menu in the options and it'll tell you to press L1 and triangle to knock them into the air, then move the SIXAXIS upward and she'll jump.

There are a variety of combos to use.

edit: you can only jump when they're in the air, its only for combos, not to get over obstacles for example.

Well I knew she can't jump over stuff unless the game wants you to do so :)

And I knew that there is a motion sensor in the game, but I didn't know how and when I should go freaky with the Sixaxis :P

But I am going to eat now, but i will most definitely try it out :D

Thx for the instruction.

Myro - I did those Aerial attacks, damn it is awesome!
I just have to learn the combo attacks a lot as the same way i did with Ninja Gaiden, and I am quite a pro on NG! (seriously)
