Truly an incredible game. It's just too short...
Combat is fun and hardly repetitive. Nothing says fun like dicing up skeleton warriors. Unfortunately however, there are not that many weapons or spells in your arsenal throughout the game. Another downer is the fact that the game is really, really, short. It took me about six or seven hours to beat the game on hero(normal).
Despite all this, GOW still manages to be very fun untill the very end. Beautiful levels, rather intelligent enemies, and of course the button-pressing minigames compliments this already great game.
