What do you think about the game?


Nice story,isnt boring but the fights werent impressive,it would have been better if you can finish every creature in a way like "God of War"

I hated plodding through the first 2 hours - mostly because of the long winded dialogue. Don't get me wrong, I love a good RPG with interesting dialogue (NWN series, Mass Effect, etc.) but not when it doesn't add much to the plot. However, the game gets significantly better as you progress. Action is a little frustrating but not the worst I've ever experienced. Executions are a nice touch. Overall story is pretty good too. Playing it on the PC is a little difficult - I imagine a controller would work well with this game. Not something you'd want to add to the library (like I did) but go ahead and rent it.

I'm really surprised why people didn't like this game. I thought it was almost flawless. I enjoyed the action, and the dialogue. Just needs a little patience. It's a little different than God of War.

Sad times indeed when the general gaming audience does not appreciate work on character development.

I remember reading a review and the reviewer said that the game has "Too much voice acting". How can a game have too much voice acting? I bought it and played it and realized that the game was indeed awesome and was right to buy it.

This is not "God of War"! "God of War" is awesome but it is a completely different game. This game, if anything, is "Mass effect" in ancient mythological Greece!

"Kratos" is not the 3rd word that always comes after "Greek Mythology". Stop expecting that.

In terms of actual Greek Mythology in video games i have to say this game is way better then the God of War series since Kratos seem like a angry version of Hercules but i also like the plot as well and yeah i do argee on the "Mass Effect" statement
