Rage. Just failed the killing combo on Poseidon 3 times because I kept pressing square when it told me to press x haha! Yeah I am not usually into Hack N Slash games, but the GOW3 intro has been pretty beastly and fun, as well as gruesome.

An improvement they actually made over GOW1 and GOW2 was that the buttons appear at the side of the screen rather than ON it. So you don't really have to look for the button itself. Just try and see what side of the screen lights up the most. If left = press left button on the controller. if right = right button etc.

 

xD Just had to make sure you got that :P!

I actually fucking froze, looked at the X button, and still pressed square haha. /retardmode. But yeah it's a decent game so far, but then the puzzle elements start, don't get me wrong, I am not stupid when it comes to puzzles, I just find it so much of a fucking effort solving them, and in some cases see it as a cheap way to add gameplay value to the game.

Hahaha. Would you believe me if I said a lot of the GoW fans want even more puzzles? That they actually feel dissapointed that GoW3 had too little in comparison to GoW1 & 2? Yeah I know...

I'm personally in the boat of huge scale + brutal kills = awesomeness. I want more of that and I am damn willing to sacrifice puzzles for it xD. But I do admit that they do change the pacing a little which is alright with me ^_^.

Oh and seriously play Heavy Rain. If you're a hater of the games .."gameplay" (xD) try just TRY to get engaged into the story. Its one of those games that I wish I could replay without knowing anything about it ^_^. The first time I played it: I was on the edge of my seat through the whole thing and I had many O_O moments. And I am not talking about graphical/technical impressive stuff, it was more ...psychological xD.

Been meaning to try Heavy Rain, but I think I really need to finish GOW3, R2 and KZ2 before moving onto any other games, as I still have to refinish ME2 and ME3 on 360, as well as Dragon Age Origins + Awakenings. My backlog is colossal in terms of time investment.. All my 360 saves got corrupted during transfer so I have to replay them haha.

But yeah the action and brutality of GOW3 is what attracted me to it, as I usually don't really like Hack N Slash that much, only really Ninja Gaiden 2 has appealed to me before.
