It's pretty fun, it's like Zelda. I have the 360 version, but I haven't got very far yet.

All reviews are unanimous on this, the PS3 version is superior in this case. (Thats rare too!) Apparently the 360 version has very bad screen tearing most of the time.

While I take most things reviewers say with a grain of salt, I'd say that with their usual tendency to lean towards the 360 versions, when they *all* say the PS3 version is better, I'll believe them.

Well thats good. Still, if someone owns both consoles, I don't see the point to getting the lesser copy when there is no multiplayer. Well, some would say achievements, but I think they are crap and useless.

The reviews say it's unoriginal and not very engaging, but I'd be willing to try it anyway.
