I got it on the release day, and I must say I am having lots of fun with the game. Sure, the story has a "been there, done that" feel to it, but the characters and the voice acting make it fun to experience. Kratos' voice is done by the same guy who did Liquid Snake!

The battle system is GREAT! I love how normal fights are easy, but the challenge is getting grade points. Once the boss fights come, you are forced to work your ass off to win! It's a perfect balance!

And does this game look ****ing beautiful or what? Even in an enviroment as bland as a desert, the game looks marvelous! I hope to see more games use this sytle of cel shading in the future (Yeah, yeah. It's not a big difference, but you still can tell).

Overall, I am having a fun time with this game. It's slowly becoming one of my favorite GameCube games.
