Urgh, its like every other game that has received hype in the general media. Halo 3 even made it onto commercial TV in advertising, and that made me extremely sceptical. I also noticed an ad for God of War: Chains of Olympus. Same story really. As soon as everyone goes on about how good a game is going to be, the "critics" pre-write their reviews in anticipation of this gift from heaven. Then it doesn't quite matter how inadequate it is, it always gets the good reviews. Gamespot gave it a perfect 10. I mean come on, that's putting it on the same level as Zelda: Ocarina of Time. And, to be frank, its just not there. Not even close.

And trust Australia to censor the game. I mean, we already have to pay $120 if I want to get it, which is about double the price of every other country in the world, and I cant order it from the US because its not the right "region". Why the keep insisting on region coding games is a mystery (though PS3 isn't, apparently).
