In a word: Epic.

From the time that I popped in that disc until the Cod of War fish suit was unlocked at the end of the game, I saw no load screen whatsoever. The graphics look like a 360 game, and the voice acting is some of the best you'll ever find.
The difficulty is just enough to make the player work for each and every spectacular finishing move, but at the same time it's easy enough for a novice gamer to hack and slash their way to Olympus. The story is very well thought out as well, and you will meet various characters from Greek mythology in your travels.
To summarize, this game takes all of the Spartan glory from 300, pours it in a blender, multiplies it by 5, and serves a malt so intense that there is no scale on which to measure it. Every other game is a joke; God of War 2 is the punchline.
