IGN Video Review 9.3/10
8.5 Presentation
The story is far from perfect, but huge props to Sony Santa Monica for once again including a ton of bonus content.
9.5 Graphics
It is at times the best-looking game ever, but not all assets were created equal. Still, you will be floored.
9.0 Sound
Fantastic soundtrack and great effects. Some of the voice work could be better, however.
9.5 Gameplay
The combat is nearly perfect, the scale is mind-boggling, and the brutality is rewarding. It's more of the same, but that's not too much of a complaint.
8.0 Lasting Appeal
It won't take much more than about 10 hours one time through, but collectables can bring you back, not to mention the Challenge rooms and Arena Battles.
