The graphics are phenomenal. Incredibly realistic. It's like watching a live movie. The gameplay is revolutionary. The mechanics are fantastic. There are a lot of good combos to use. The power, speed and range stances are cool to switch between. A few different types of baddies to kill throughout the game...and you come to know which stances are best to use to defeat them. But some of the bosses are ridiculous. The last guy was so hard! You think you kill him and then you find out it just takes you to another stage with him...and he's even harder there! It also sucks when you have to be Kai, Nariko's sister. All she can do is shoot her arrows or rockets. Aiming those things can be fun and they can also be stressful and frustrating. It all depends on the target. The voice acting is extremely well done. The actors did an awesome job. I especially loved the diversity and the individual personalities of the characters. Each one was distinct and unique. This game would have been a true gem were it not for the lack of MORE. The game ended too suddenly. I wanted more. It seemed like the crew spent so much time making the game so perfect that it would've taken a lifetime to make a game of this quality the length of say, a traditional God of War game. The ending was pretty sad, too.
