Very creative. Might have to pick this game up.

It's nice to see a developer so dedicated to their game after release like this. It's a shame this released so close to GOW3 and so many other great games or this would likely have been more on my radar.
Regardless I will pick this up as soon as I have a chance.

It was very nice of ea to release 30+ dollars for a mediocre action game. Every bit of the dlc is garbage or could have been included on disc like the trial editor. Who wants to buy 2 and 3 dollar weapon and soul packs? I for one am getting very tired of the way dlc is being treated. Burnout Paradise by each and criterion was the best post release support I've seen. This is just an ea money grab for a game that flopped at retail, which is kinda understandable. I dunno why they didn't release the game months earlier, before gow killed all its sales.

Why call it Hades? It's either The Underworld or Hell, take your pick.

I pick Hades
The FIRST name for Hell(before any other religion, maybe Hinduism but I'm not sure)

Personally I wouldn't use the names Hades and Hell for the same "Underworld" either even if the "Underworld" depicted in Dante's Inferno and of course the Divine Comedy for that matter borrows alot of creatures and names from greek mythology. That place is still supposed to be Hell. The place Kratos gets kicked down to in GoW3 so he could slay some more monsters and gods before finishing the story is Hades.
Long story short: I don't think of Hades and Hell as the same place.

Hades isn't the first name for "Hell" — though it depends on what you mean by hell. The Hebrew cannon references a place after the grave called Shoel. The ancient Semites speak of the underworld in their myths of Inana/Ishitar. And I'm sure there is a perfitious realm in the old Hindu and Egyptian mythos—both of which predate Grecian myth by centuries.

Man I finally got around to playing this game recently, and it was just a stinker. I stopped after 4 or 5 hours. It was just bland and felt like it was designed by some angst-y 15 year old.
Nothing about it felt inspired at all. poor level design throughout.
