Now Excite Truck on the other hand...
I can't believe you're not persevering past that section, it's not even challenging in the slightest. Just apply a bit of old skool pattern awareness and you're done. Ten minutes tops.

In the case of God of War, then giving up soon is saving you a whole world of pain later on. A wonderful game, wrapped in misery and despair. So much frustration on the fucking platformy bits made me want to stab stuff.

Oh, and Zelda Fishing is awesome isn't it - finally got my Wii back corruption free (which was super noticeable while fishing) and enjoying Lure fishing even more now :D

Yes, Once I worked out how to fish its utterly ace :)
Really feels satisfying.

Now, doing those super-monkey-ball-like roll puzzles in the fisher girls place....

.. is a half decent racing game and countless imitations will appear on the Wii over the course of time.

God of War on the other hand is the best game of its genre out there. Until GoWII.
call me weird, but I preferred Rygar - Legendary Adventure.

Hadn't heard of it until that post but it does look like a nice game that could be picked up cheap nowdays :)

Some claim Rygar to be too short, but it's obvious that these people aren't playing it the way it's supposed to be played. Hell, Oblivion can be completed in 20 hrs, if your only goal is to fly through it as quickly as possible.

!! Here in NZed it's supposed to be $1200NZD, for the "full version" (that's incl GST, I think. Add 12.5% more if sony wants to rip us off more.)
£500 is about $1400NZD!
Talk about a rip off..

I've read a lot of claims that the PS3 preorders have exceeded preorders for every other console by a large amount. (Just not on here it seems)

So it is with some surprise that I got an email at 9:30am this morning from Amazon telling me they had more available for preorder and I had to get in quick as it is a limited amount and they would be removed when the allocation was gone.

Just checked, and as of 16:20 you can still preorder.
