You are Kratos and you will murder the god of war.
And murder I did. I can't say the ending was any walk in the park but I died more trying to get through a couple of the traps in the game than I did finishing it. The ending is outstanding and utterly satisfying. I wasn't left with that "is that all!?" feeling once I finished it. Now I've unlocked Challenge of the Gods and God mode difficulty. But first I should get through Geist.
I'm totally impulsive. Geist sounded cool when I was working at gamestop a year and a half ago and now it's finally out. And if the multiplayer doesn't suck it'll be a good one for my birthday. Between Chris and I we have like 7 gamecube controllers so the xbox problem of not having enough controllers won't be a factor. Actually, now that I think about it, last time it was the gamecube that we didn't have enough controllers for. I guess I'll bring all of mine instead of just one this time.
And while I was a gamestop I found a Conan figure that looks like a roman centurion for $5 and they had the new Spawn repaints and (miraculously) one Redeemer 2 repaint left. The repaint isn't as cool as the original because it's all brown and black and that's kind of boring but it's still probably my favorite McFarlane's sculpt ever. They're both gracing the top of my entertainment center.

P.S. I'm no photographer and I'm using Katie's camera while she's not here.
