The new God of War game is fucking great. I've played through the first few levels so far, the areas and enemies are excellent. So far, the difficulty of the enemies throughout the level seems to have dropped, and the overall difficulty of the bosses has gone up. The bosses force you to use more strategy, and allow you less breathing room. I am comparing the hard difficulties of the two games to each other. I recommend this highly. It is among the best of this type of third person action\platforming game.
