Anyone else find god of war to be super difficult? I'm not a huge gamer but I'm getting pretty frustrated at the difficulty of the enemies and I have it on normal mode or whatever the standard difficulty level is. I can't imagine playing it on hardcore or whatever the mode is. I will say I love the controls on the game. It is one of the first games where I really enjoy fighting the enemies even though they kick my ass so many times.

This is probably what I'm missing. I know I was getting crushed in Rachet and Clank until I realized the trick is to just constantly move while attacking. I'll try this.

I haven't played the Assassins Creed games since PS3 and I remember finding riding the horse to be extremely boring. Outside of that I really enjoyed the gameplay but gave up on the series due to the horse riding. Are the newer ones worth checking out? If so, which ones?
