I'd barely qualify that thing as portal though. Even though they tried desperately to make it SEEM like they were ripping off portal with that gun, the fact that you can only use the thing at predesignated points makes the thing a glorified hookshot(as opposed to the actual hookshot the game also has).
Anyway, I was going in expecting a God of War clone, so when the game had all these exploration elements and dungeons that were full of puzzles instead of hordes of monsters I was pleasantly surprised.
It's weird that this is like the first game I've ever played in the Zelda series that actually does the Zelda thing. The change of scenery is what makes it so awesome though because, we know playing Zelda is awesome, it's just that Zelda being the EXACT same game for like 4 games in a row is really starting to wear thin.
This game is that Zelda thing...only it's ABOUT something else.
I like the dungeons too. It's not like Zelda where everything is a ruined temple(well, okay, a couple of them are). It's like, here's Dungeon 2. It's a Subway station complex. Here's Dungeon 4. It's a webbed up skyscraper.
Boss fights where fun too, with the possible exception of the spider deamon at the end of act 4 i think it was, she just got a bit old do to not being able to do alot of damage at any one time, but otherwise they where enjoyable, im at straga atm, know how to kill him, just need to get some playtime in hehe
Woe be unto those who impeach upon the pristine name of Miyamoto, or His only begotten son, Link! WOE!!!
(Mario don't count dude.)
The demo for this just came out on 360, i'm gonna check it out. Supposedly it's about a 30-90 minute demo which is pretty good, the first dungeon i believe is what is included.
