   I never actually played God of War but I watched a show on it once (I   
   think on G4 or something).  I saw a lot of quick time events, and I   
   don't really find those fun.  I remember quick time events from Shenmue   
   )  They were cute and different at the time but not what I would call   
   fun game play.  Hmmm, I did not know God of War had automatic difficulty   
   ~ I should probably check that out sometime.  I do remember trying Ninja   
   Gaiden and being stuck in the first ditch forever in the beginning of   
   the demo ~ heehee.   
      
   Anyways, if your a Golden Axe fan, like a mature hack and slash, and   
   have quick enough reflexes ~ you'll probably find some enjoyable stuff   
   in Beast Rider.
