I haven't tried NG2, but aren't the two fundamentally different? |
NG2 has a combat system that is essentially the perfect system for any 3rd person hack and slash game. The combat system is so good that the game, without having any puzzles or good story, is fantastic. The only real problem people can find with it is the camera. God of War uses a very similar combat system, but the depth, speed, responsiveness and combos don't get close. And yet, God of War is to me the second best combat system in a hack and slash.
Still, GoW has fantastic puzzles and an often fantastic story, plus a great combat system. Not as good as NG2, but good enough that the combat is still very fun.

GOTY Contestants this year: Dead Space 2, Dark Souls, Tales of Graces f. Everything else can suck it.
