One 'gripe' I had initially was that the controls cannot be customized.

It truly feels like a expansive, very cinematic journey. It is interesting, gritty and and seems to bring to life and encompass it's beautiful, yet often harsh surroundings. I think the one thing I truly loved is the father, son dynamic. To tie it all together the story in surprisingly very well done, heartfelt and engaging which drives you to experience each step. In battle, Atreyu will frequently yell out warnings to incoming attacks which is complimented by onscreen, directional reticles that turn color as enemies approach. Later on you obtain Kratos' traditional GoW weapon as well adding a 'fire element' weapon to your Frost Axe, which later comes into play with elemental enemies. Kratos also uses his bare hands and retractable shield for attacks and combos while Kratos son, Atreyu, fires sometimes by himself, but also on your command with the same onscreen reticle as your axe.

Kratos axe reacts like Thors hammer from the Marvel franchise and returns to his hand when thrown with a single button press.

There are many moves and attacks to attain along the way with plenty of ways to dispatch enemies with multiple skill trees. To equip for your questing, Kratos' armor & weapons as well as his sons clothes and bow are upgradable along the journey. There is a more one on one approach to combat this time instead of mowing down hordes, ala Dynasty Warriors, with the enemy types being detailed and gritty, although repeats and repaints are frequent. The action is more engaging, grounded and visceral than ever with a third person 'over the shoulder' camera angle. Gone are the days of Kratos over the top, cartoonish anger issues along with the gratuitous vulgarity and offputting nudity of past games.And THAT is a very good thing. Which Side of History?
