Heavenly Sword tutorial -- stances and how to use 'em

If you don't really care about learning how to control Nariko, heroine of the upcoming Heavenly Sword game for PS3, you can at least watch her in her element. We're talking about the different battle stances for Nariko. There are three: slow/strong, normal, fast/weak/ranged. Those are very vague and shoddy descriptions, but we feel that's the best way to convey the idea behind them in a short sentence. The video itself goes over the stances as well as a bit of behind-the-scenes discussion about Nariko and the game itself. We're so excited, we can hardly wait for Fall! Enjoy the video, and Nariko's "posh" English accent.

reason number #1 why I'm going to buy a PS3.This game looks so damn hot. This will hold me off until God of War 3 and Metal Gear.

looks sick!!!
been looking forward to this game forever. i hope they add a combo meter or a toggle for one. Andy circus man! F**in Andy circus!!
tho i'm not too keen on her tentacle hair floating in the cutscenes, when fighting it makes her look like a medusa fighter, a really pissed off goddess of war!
awesome.

Man, this game looks AMAZING!
With Heavenly Sword, Lair, Warhawk, and Uncharted coming out this fall, it looks like Sony is going to shut up quite a few critics.

When the commercials for this game come out, there will be a lot of PS3s getting sold. The only problem is, we need games like this NOW! The summer looks pretty lame, besides Lair.
BTW, my brother just bought his PS3 last weekend!

What's up with the dude's voice? He sounds so freakin' cheesy, it reminds me of that cornball guy who used to be on Gamepro TV.

man, this is going to be a HARD game, I have a feeling this will be a DMC3 type of game while DMC4 will be horrible (in the same league as DMC2)
