anyway, definitely one of the best console games i've ever played, the puzzles were GREAT.. The whole Greek mythology size of it was fantastic, but with all that said, i'm SO GLAD that it's over.. some of those puzzles took me forever, but that's what makes the game so great.. anyway, i'll be borrowing from my cousin, god of war 2 soon.. are they about the same length and difficulty as far as puzzles go?
Awesome! Yeah i'm trying to think about the puzzles in number too.. I think they are about the same.. There were definetly a couple of places where I was stuck for a longgggg time trying to figure out what to do next, only to find it was actually something simple that I had missed over and over, which I think it what gets you.
Overall though, the fighting controls are the same, but his chains and the way he moves has improved a little. You'll feel that straight away, and trust me, it immediately feels awesome.. The story gets more indepth and plays out a bit better. It probably takes about the same amount of time I think. The graphics have been fine tuned. The levels have taken a few steps up as far as atmosphere and scenery. You have this flying option where you can temporary float across area's.. It shouldn't work as well as it does! But you love every minute of that as well..

Basically their is no area that is hugely different or better, but if you took every aspect of number 1, then added 20% more on to it, then that's number 2... Which is great because they had a winning recipe which really they could have just added a whole new set of levels and I would have loved it just as much, but everything has had a lick of fresh paint...
