God of War had more solid gameplay; while I'll argue against the statement that Ryse is unredeemable trash, I will acknowledge that it lacks in variety; it is just whack-whack-whack without much strategy or even skill required. God of War had a far more engaging story and it required some mastery of the game's systems to complete. Ryse is pretty though and - as I said - sometimes the wanton slaying of enemies is exactly the sort of thing I want: the uncomplicated and bloody slaying of hundreds of faceless goons to relieve the stress of the day. Don't go into it expecting too much and it's fine. I have to admit, Bundlestars' website /looks/ shady and for a long while I avoid them because of it. But eventually I broke down and made some purchases and since then I've been buying there for a year or two without any issue. They are apparently work with the publishers/developers directly and aren't a shady key-reseller... not that you'd get that impression from the website; I'll be the first to admit it looks like a a scammy fly-by-night operation. They do offer some excellent deals though. The bulk of their library is pretty crappy but it's worth it to pick up a $5 bundle of 10 games just to get the one or two decent games therein. It certainly bulked up my Steam library ;-)
