Ripping wings of a harpy, plummeting chained daggers down the mouth of minotaurs and riding a giant while stabbing it's eyes, making it bleed to death?

Sounds fun!

Anyone seen or tried it?

Pondering if it's my next buy at EB-Games...

EDIT:

http://www.penny-arcade.com look pretty awed with the game as well.

ya i have it. Its alright, has lots of combat were you can do big combos and its very bloody, the system is easy to use. The puzzles are simple but its a good break from the combat. My main gripe is that it has certain sequences that you have to match the buttons that show up on the screen and all of them are fine until you get the one were you have to furiously tap one button to do something against an enemy. They require way too fast of a thumb because I cant even do it in the beginning without breaking out my index finger.

I recommend it if you want action packtion.

yeah it's meant to be pretty good like you grab the hydra and smash its head in :)

If you hold the middle of the controller with your left hand and then hold it between your legs like a black vibrating cock you can just tap the button with your index rythmitcally.

it also has boobs.

i just place the controller on my thigh and use my index finger, but only for the ones were u have to keep pounding really fast. My thumb is better for the DDR parts because I usually miss the buttons with my index :crazy:

Ugh, yeah.. That was the only mission that I failed more than four times.. I hate the whole "KLIK TEH BUTAN KWIKLY" concept.. That damn octopusman part in MGS was way too fucking hard.. I was never able to save Meryl.. :sadblinky:

Only thing worse than that is the moronic "hit RC-planes with a minigun"-mission... I hate gamepads...

Guess I just suck at using the analog part of the joypad then. Which might explain why I can't ever get a fine curve in GT4.

Isn't there a mouse-substitute for PS2..?

ya those RC ones were hard for me. Games on th consoles arent meant to be played with a mouse and will probably be even worse if u used one.

Sorry to revive, and dig, but I got the game, finished it in 3 dahs (easy though), and *FUCK YEAH* it was awesome!

Thanks!

And the 10 challenges of the gods are nice.

I was gonna say 3 days makes for a short game, but I think I remember you're the one who whined about KOTOR2's lenght after finishing it in 2 days.

The RC plane mission was very hard in the beginning, but when I brushed up on my flying skills at the abandoned airstrip, it wasn't so bad. Although, Zero missions suck ass regardless.
