I've been wanting to play this game for awhile now. I've always been a huge fan of mythology, especially Greek and Norse. I'm not only interested in how the game will play out, but in what direction the story will unfold. The game designers are taking a very interesting approach at creating evil Greek Gods. I'm curious to see how this game will unfold, as the concept of a good and evil war between the Gods had never been fleshed out by the Greeks before, aside from Zeus' raid on Olympus to dethrone Cronus, which doesn't really count anyway. I decided to pick up a game last week, and it was between this game and Champions: Return to Arms.

I decided to go with Champions because I loved the first game, and felt I would garner more hours from this game to tide me over until I purchase my next. The next game I pick up will be God of War, though.

The only thing that's worrying me is an interview I read concerning the creator. He emphasized being "cool" to be a high point of the game. Let's just hope he can back that up with decent gameplay, which reading the reviews, is not going to be a huge problem.
