Lots of instant-death pits and difficult platforming.

I wasn’t stuck, just got swept up by Valkyria Chronicles instead.

Another confidence killer is in God of War, where if you die too many times it nicely asks if you’d like to play in easy mode instead. It was damn tempting a few times but I made it through.

Part of that is because if I’m reviewing something the lowest difficulty level makes it easier to make my deadline, but mostly it’s because I just want to play the game, see the story, enjoy the mechanics, whatever. Once you start, it’s hard to go back. it’s like all of your gaming is done on vacation. 😉

As I kill them, more materialize from out of the ground, so I’m not sure whether they’ll appear endlessly or not.

There’s a glowing dome-looking thing on a downed spacecraft nearby and a glowing floor. I managed to jump up to the glowing dome thing once and destroyed it, but then I got killed.

I had to stop playing SFIV and SFII:HD online, it was killing my self esteem :) I will give it another go when MvC2 comes out but I don’t have any illusions of being any good.
