I mean, it's God of War, so it's awesome. But I heard this game got mediocre reviews, and I can kind of see why only playing a few minutes. I don't know exactly what it is, I mean so far it looks good, but one thing they did put in is a bar that constantly fills when you get hits, and you can only do certain combos when it is full. This would be fine, but the combos you can use while it's empty kind of blow. Of course, I only have the blades lvl 1, so who knows. I also heard the story is short, because of multiplayer, which is a shame. It definitely doesn't feel as epic as God of War 3, which starts of in the middle of the most epic battle ever, but I'm not giving up on it yet. The Furies are pretty cool, and there's a lot of good potential with Kratos' backstory.
