I don't know if I've mentioned this yet, but I got a PS3 just to play Stranger HD and god a few games with it. God Of War III is one of the most fun, engaging games I've ever played. It's difficult but not too difficult and there's a weird sense of humour to the ultra violence in it. It's also terribly written. Like, the most garbage writing I've ever encountered. It is soooooo silly. But still, lots and lots of fun. At one point you're in this humungous cavern being towed around on a giant box and have to protect the chain holding you up. This is difficult as hell because you have to fight a bunch of little fodder enemies and then these bullshit minotaurs, or so you think.
What you're supposed to do is just hop around like an idiot avoiding the little guys until the minotaurs appear (the whole sequence is spawn-scripted) and then just pick up a skeleton and use it as a battering ram to knock the big guys off of your box. It's a silly, ingenious series of battles like that that have warmed the game to me, despite its silliness.
I got MGS4 too, but it is one long insufferable cutscene so I'm holding off on it until I've beaten some other games.
Like Mother 3, which I beat a few days ago. I love that game, it actually made me tear up a bit at the end.
