God of.... CRAP!

I decided to pick up God of War for PS2. Despite the violence/etc content, I'd heard it was a well designed game and worth having a look at.

I *HATE* it. Ugh. It's a button-mashing fighting game. I might be dressed up with better graphics, better story, better cinematics, but at the end of the day, you still win through button mashing.... including segments where they basically tell you PRESS THE X BUTTON AS FAST AS YOU CAN!!!!

Ugh. Wish I'd rented it. It's getting sold tommorrow! Blech! Back to Psychonauts!!!
