ninety nine nights good or bad?

the xbox 360 game Ninety Nine Nights was an addicting game. After playing it for an hour you seriously start to get sick of it. All you do is have little mini wars and you play as some mighty awesome fighter and the fighting style consists of running around and slicing and dicing everyone in  your way that's it. Now I'm not saying that i want them to start putting some puzzles in the game. (i hate puzzles) but how about some variety like actually blocking in the game you just put your weapon in front of you like no ones gonna hit you in the back. In other places like the cut scenes the characters have quite a weak dialogue. It seems empty although in hi-definition its worth nothing in a sense. I liked the game but again you have to have a very ridiculously long attention span to play this game for more than thirty minutes.
