Cleared mate.

Yep. And checking its IVG reaction was one of the reasons I finally logged in today.

Yeah bro. Sold it in July itself.

This one's for real. Real failure in life, not an "Epic" fail on a forum.

Completed the game. The game picked up BIG time in the last 20-25% or so. Good game overall. Still not picking up Ascension at the full price though.

FOR ME, it is a big letdown after 1 and 2. Both combat and puzzles seem heavily dumbed down. And it has too much hand-holding for my tastes.

I was saying that it's not that the previous GOW games had better combat than the Ninja Gaiden series. But they somehow managed to overcome that in other departments like puzzles, atmosphere, etc., unlike GOW3, which just doesn't gel to me. I'm about 2 hours away from finishing it.

I had played God of War 1 and 2 earlier, and enjoyed both of them immensely. Had GOW3 in my backlog for too long, and decided I should play it now, in time to be hyped for Ascension. But, it somehow manages to let me down(despite the universal positive reviews). It has a much larger number of QTE than previous two entries, and everything seems to have been dumbed down(except 1 or 2 puzzles). Playing this game makes me remember the times of Ninja Gaiden, and how it had so much better combat. I...

I am quite busy with studies. I got a free replacement from Amazon(on the GPU) without even sending in the previous one, and the new one is working great. I plan to test the old one and the new one with crossfire(and if it works then I'll sell this PSU to get a higher-rated one). There has been just a week or two since I got the replacement GPU, so haven't gamed much on it except some Sleeping Dogs. The proper gaming inauguration will have to wait for some time now, it seems, as I hav...
