1:The heroine is not pretty or strong or even likeable in my personal opinion she's just there and screams alot
2:A fighting game like ninja gaiden minus the pouring out of blood in three styles Power,Speed,Deflect
3:Tons of combos but really most of time you will be button mashing because of the onslaught of enemies
4:AI is super smart they can dodge your every move and counter attack if you even let up your attack for a brief second definitely the hardest fighting g"

5 - Nariko (Heavenly Sword)
Super long and convoluted backstory on this babe, in yet another game I have not played. I'll sum up my high ranking of Nariko as this: she's a warrior, she's a redhead, she's a babe, and Anna Torv voices her. Does there really need to be a deeper explanation than that?

Legends told of how a son of the tribe would be born to reclaim the sword and lead the land to greatness once more. But, when the time long fortold arrived, the child that was born was female: Nariko "

"***CONFIRMED
Nariko
I was a bit surprised to see she made the cut, but it is confirmed she will be in the final game. She's hot and she's awesome. She should have the exact same move-set as Kratos so all the GoW fanboys who say she is a ripoff of their beloved series will actually have something to base that theory on."

"Nariko
Call it a GoW or DMC ripoff, it mostly is, but dang Nariko was hot with her completely useless outfit. There's just no point that extra cloth blowing in the wind and serious lack of armor for going against a whole army, she's nuts; but that's what we gamers love."
