Although I was playing it on the easiest mode (I do this for all games the first time through), I died a few times. However, it was never as a result of battle. It was because of things like, "Wait. That was a timed running sequence? Oh. Oops." You know, things that just take you off guard. It has a fabulous checkpoint system, though, so you never lose any amount of gameplay.
I won't go into the ridiculous, overt sexuality of the game again. It became a point of humor for me after a while, so I'll let it off the hook.
I think that means I'm out of PS3 games to play.
