Why oh Why? Have just completed that Heaven or Hell mode in 2 hours. What a total waste of time. Why was this mode even included?

its a mode unlocked after completing SoS mode whereby all enemies die after a single hit. You die after 3 hits (you have 3 gold orbs to use at the level start).
For instance, a usually challenging part in a lift involving a blitz, x3 mephisto 's and two frosts (this bit was really hard on SoS mode) can be cleared within a few seconds (press X a few times).
I was expecting it to get tougher as i went on, but it easy all the way through
Its seems a very weird mode as it is above SoS and DmD modes. Hell or Hell mode looks VERY challenging. Apparently you can get hit 3 times, but enemies now have SoS health/difficulty.
Also levelling up my character has a finally annoyed me. I had racked up 76,000 proud souls and went to buy the last 2 abilities for Nero. One cost 55,000 souls and the last around 60,000. After buying one of these skills the last skill now costs 101,000 proud souls!!!! That's a few play through minimum. totally ridiculous. There's having challenging achievements, then there are achievements that blatently take the pea. I'm annoyed as i know i'll re-play through for completeness sake - I'm a sucker for type of stuff unfortunately
On the bright side, Heaven or Hell mode makes getting the "Legendary Devil Hunter" (10,000 kills) a little easier.
I think next i'll try DMD mode to see exactly how challenging this actually is (I imagine very challenging, although you do get a load of proud souls after completing each level).
EDIT: at least in DMD mode you get a ton of proud souls for your efforts. Just finished mission 2 with an A rank and 5700 proud souls
Although the blitz just owned me in mission 3

I'm up to the second to last level in SoS mode now. What was one of the easiest missions in the previous difficulties has become hard as nails. Really need to practice my boss killing skills in order to make it through with enough health to survive the entire mission.
Didnt really get along with dante in SoS difficulty until i discovered how utterly powerful the third melee weapon (lucifer?) is. Those spears turn a blitz into mince meat if used correctly.
The challenge mission with 100 levels (forget the name) gives out proud souls like mad. Got to level 27 in about 15 mins and it dished out around 5k proud souls.

The PS3 version is currently going for £25 on a well known online retailer, at that price every PS3 owner should pick it up!

It should be that price purely because the game is annoying!! Its good but some of the puzzles and camera angles are really annoying
No. I got the limited edition, you can have my artbook if you want it. I only got it cos the price was same for normal and special edition from the site I ordered on release date.
