And with that, I can go onto the next game, which in line with my extra games schedule will be:

God of War II
Release Date: March 13, 2007
Playing on: PS3
Previous Experience with God of War II: None
Expectations for God of War II: An improved version of God of War 1.

Before I started this project, I had zero experience with the whole "hack and slash" genre that originated with games like Devil May Cry and the Xbox Ninja Gaiden. God of War is kind of a westernization and perhaps a bit of a simplification of that genre. It might have been the introduction to hack and slash for a lot of American gamers, and if it hadn't been for Bayonetta it would have served that purpose for me as well.

That being the case, it was probably a little over-ambitious of me to play the first GoW on Hard mode. I'll be dropping down to normal for its sequel, with the hope that it will speed up my progress a little bit. But other than chickening out on the game's real difficulty, I don't know if there's a lot to say about this game that I didn't say about the first. I didn't love the original God of War by any means, but there were some parts I liked quite a bit, especially the monster boss fights. I'm hoping there will be a few more of those in the second game, but otherwise I'm only expecting a more polished version of the same thing.
