When the first installment came out in 2005 and received critical acclaim, I was naturally intrigued. I loved hack and slash games, and as Devil May Cry fan I devoured Dante's Awakening earlier that year, but despite a number of solid attempts, including its sequels, God of War never got its hooks into me enough to drag me past the first couple of hours.
