    I'd give you my BIA if I could. I didn't really get into it.

    I hate HoS with a passion. Payed $10 for it, yawned through the first 3 levels... what a joke.

    Ditto, it's got pretty cut scenes and a nice soundtrack, but gameplay and in-game presentation does nothing to pull me in.

    Love Sally's Spa!

    I tried the lite version of this and the frame rate was nearly enough to make me delete it right then and there. I found the combat very unsatisfying and didn't get very far. I agree with the other poster, Sally's Spa is way better than this!

    Lol another TM hater.
    Personally I think Sally's Spa is much better, it's more original at the very least.
    I don't like games without originality and Hero of Sparta is one of those games with a theme that can't be more cliched. Sure the graphics are impressive, but I get bored from playing it after a few minutes (probably also because it's way too linear and easy), whereas Sally's Spa is much more addictive.

    You do realize that GoW on PSP sold for about 3-4 times that of HoS (when it was at full price) when they were new. It would have had a budget of similar difference too. Take HoS for what it is (a decent hack n slash game), and you'll enjoy it. Expect far too much from it and you won't.

    On 3GS? Sure.
    But the framerate stutters too much on my 3G :(

    Here here. If I had a 3G S, I'd pick it up for sure, seeing as I don't, the framerate is just too frustrating. I played through World 4 of Bounce On with gritted teeth, so that's enough framerate issues for me. :D
