BLADES OF FURY. Man..this game kick ass. The graphics are top-notch, comparable to NOVA. This game is a beauty; I mean the lighting effects is like Soul Caliber, but very details with sharp colors & dark background. Music is very dark, & medevil. Sounds? Awesome! Overall, Blades of Fury is one of the top 3D fighting game on the Pre, & i'm a hardcore gamer. If you purchased Nova, than, get Blades of Fury. Online gameplay will be nice.

How are the controls? I have a lot of trouble with Nova.

I get a bit frustrated with NOVA, too. I like the game and the graphics, but I find aiming to be a royal pain. I tried the dual-analog layout, and that wasn't any better. To be fair, they work better than I imagined on-screen controls could. Still far from ideal, though.

On the other hand, I think the controls for Hero of Sparta and Assassin's Creed work great. I think this game is a lot more comparable, control-wise, to those two, so I have high confidence that they will work for Blades of Fury. I just bought it this morning, and I will try it out at lunch.

Know what we really need? A Bluetooth gamepad for the Pre - preferably one that clips on in landscape mode.

Dieter, FYI, there seems to be a misplaced slash in the Plumber's Nightmare link, as well as in the app gallery listing.
