    I might get this tonight... I typically love adventure games, for some reason I didn't get into DAO though... not yet anyway. Didn't help that MW2 came out like a week later (or I bought it a week later).

    yeah, it took me a few tries to realize that you have to scroll over the bomb itself to lock on when aiming...not just aim at tiamit herself. once you figure that out, it wasnt so bad. just have to fight a little patiently. games these days, you can just go and wail on enemies and buzz through quickly. not here.

    The older I get the harder these "twitch" games get..I love them but they test my patience.

    Bought this yesterday. Thus far I'm about 2 hours in and I am thoroughly impressed. I love the look of the game, and gameplay is top notch. Feel like I'm playing the bastard child of Zelda and God of War.

    I'm going to backburner this and rip through Bayonetta, which I also picked up. I want to give this one my full attention. It's awesome thus far though. Lovin' it.

    I read somewhere that they plan to do followups depending on how well the game does. They would love to tell stories with the other horseman as well.

    Finished it..Great game...I would buy the next sequel for certain.

    The ending seemed to come to soon for me...after all those eloborate areas for the final area to be just an arena was disappointing...I did like the ending however :up:

    I can't believed you disliked this so bad lol

    While i agree that combat was nothing ground breaking... but it was no more repetitive than God of War (or any beat em up for that reason). Beat em ups as a genre has pretty much been repetitive as balls since the Final Fight, Golden Axe days.

    As for the cutscenes, I liked em. Thought they were well directed and had great voice acting. The character and world design was phenomenal imo.

    Different strokes, different folks i guess. I can't wait for part 2.

    I'm with you, Med ... I just got to the first boss battle, and I'm already about ready to switch to my other GameFly rental, Heavy Rain. Just feels really inaccessible to me (no pun intended).
