So not many more if you ask me. Also isnt this Kratos vs the Big Hand Enemy no Boss Battle?

Oh he is, it's the same idea of how you fought Chronus.  It's actually almost the entire prologue.

Some of the guys on gaf seem disappointed or just pleased. I keep seeing people comparing it to GOW3. I kept thinking of this game as a prequel and that's the standards I'll judge it by. The thing with prequels it's really a case of 'damned if you do or damned if you don't' because if they went over the top and surpassed GOW3 then they'd say he's way too powerful and should be weaker since he's in the past. Personally I think SSM did the right thing given the constraints they had. I just really hate to see what some of those Sony haters have to say online, as if they've been waiting for this moment. GETS ME MAD!!!!!

One thing I do agree with though ... a reviewer said SSM was scraping the bottom of the Greek mytho pot, and I do agree. I feel like they explored everything and I can't see the next game being interesting if they continue along those lines. But let's wait and see. Either way I have faith in whatever direction they take the series.

EDIT

4 Bosses sounds good. Are people complaining? As long as they're decent fights I see no issue.

Why should anyone else care what they think?

You are right. There is no reason to care what they think, but that wasn't the purpose of my argument. :)

The first 30 min was fantastic and I expect the game to be great although I haven't played the full thing yet. But based on the beta and the first 30 min...FUCK THE REVIEWS!

The thing is apparantly every other hour aside from the 4 boss battles is just killing minions and people are really criticizing the story not making "sense" until the last hour or so making the pacing feel odd and just weird.

Fuck I need this game already.

 

With that said guys:
EVERYONE I've read seems completely in-love with the ..final boss. Can't wait to see that shit.

O EM FUCKING GGGGGGG!!!!! lol Hype!!!! Suddenly I feel to go pre-order the survival edition now, but I'm kool with the regular. That's good to hear man, and coming from you I'll take your words as gospel since you're the PC guy around these parts and your eyes are used to high quality stuff. I'm sure ND won't disappoint. Well, did you get to see the different types of enemies? I'm really interested in how the main characters interact with them, or how you approach them rather.


oh and ... yea the PS3 looks kewl. xD

Yeah, trust me, you will not believe your eyes. I don't say that lightly, either. It's just so different from many of the games I've seen. I didn't get any hands on time with it, but what I saw looked better than anything they've shown thus far.

Nice nice ... well I'm even more excited now, and I'm really glad they decided to extend the date. If they need time to polish the game then by all means ND, do what needs to be done to knock our socks off.

I'm really glad they differentiated the game as well. Should prove to be interesting.

Damn..I still need to wait another 2 more days for GOWA. First of all it's officially banned in my region (middle-east) but the retail outlet here has already managed to place an order for me. So 2 damn whole days and receive it just in the same time as the PAL regions!!
