I had a roommate that made sims of myself and my then girlfriend. She dumped me. Our sims got married. I had never before been jealous of a sequence of ones and zeros. It was a weird feeling.

God of War II is arguably a better game than the first one; it features solid iterative improvements to all of the systems available in the first game, and it adds some fun new twists to existing gameplay models.
