Really Jeff, you should play with headphones on, especially on Blackout. I could hear clearly where enemies were running and shooting and they still got the drop on you.
I think a combination of a review and quicklook would be cool. Brad could be playing the game (and we seeing footage of it) while Jeff and Ben talked about it and sometimes he could chime in or Ben could say "like this part where Brad is right now, this mission just plain sucks' or whatever.
@ripelivejam: Yea, I'm playing on the harder difficulty as well and it sometimes just feels a little unbalanced. You can get 1 or 2 shot by yellow enemies easily and it can be pretty frustrating because the combat is really good, but it's not 'Bloodborne/Dark Souls'-good. It also makes Kratos sometimes look like the God of Paper instead of the God of War.
Having said that I really enjoy the game and the fights can be absolutely awesome looking and feeling. Good game :)
