Bayli was kind enough to let me borrow her PS3 and I rented this game. I'll admit, I had high hopes They were somewhat unmet.

The gameplay was good. Not much different than the previous two, but there were some new things. This game seemed harder than either of the first two though. I died alot more than I remember dying previously. The boss battles were hit or miss (Hades was awesome, Hercules, Poseidon, and the finale with Zeus were fun, Hermes and Helios were boring), and the puzzles were pretty cool.

The graphics were good too. I expected the game to look better than it did, but I don't have a fancy TV, so that may have played a part in it.

The thing that really disappointed me was the story, particularly the ending. I really liked this part of the first two games. I expected a very grandiose ending, and while I see why they ended it the way they did, I didn't like it.

All in all, I'm glad I got to play it, but I don't plan on playing through it again.

6.5/10 (I would give both its predecessors 9s)
