God of War 3 - Poseidon
HEYO! Surprise update. This one won't be very long because I played some of this a long time ago (aka weeks ago) and don't feel like replaying from the beginning.
Like I said before, the opening cinematic was absolutely stunning. The graphics in this game are SO GOOD I sometimes lose track of Kratos. Not because I can't see him, but because I want to look at all the other s*** instead. I watched as the titans got taken down one by one until its finally just me and Gaia. The second fight with the Hippocamp was a lot more difficult, simply because I didn't feel like evading. I just went with a straight offensive approach and almost died. Oh well, I knew I could take it out.
I found Zeus' Eagle (!!!), but I can't use it til the end of the game apparently. Ohhhh holy s***. We can do climbing combos now? F*** yes.
The boss fight with Poseidon began and I was still in awe of this game. I can't tell what is a cinematic, what is gameplay, and when the two are the same. This is ridiculous. Sometimes I just sit there and think I'm watching a cutscene and it turns out I'm supposed to do something and then I die. I dislodged the claws from Gaia's head, smacked Poseidon around some, then dislodged the claws again and flew straight through Poseidon's water body.
I love how the boss battle was done. It was great seeing the action from Poseidon's perspective, so you're literally hitting QTE button to kill your point of view. Then Gaia turned out to be a traitorous b****. Looks like Kratos is really on his own now.
