I just beat the Hydra boss in God of War. It wasn't hard, and I was never in any danger of running low on health. It was still pretty enjoyable, first because of how neat it all looked, but also the fact that there were multiple things to do to win.

First, you had to beat up the smaller hydras and figure out how to disable them. Then climb up to the top level and start attacking the big one. Once there you have to avoid it's biting attacks, which is easy, and do enough damage to bring up the on screen prompts to hit the circle button repeatedly... and so perform the moves that eventually lead to it's death. I don't know, I'm easily entertained sometimes.

I now have to revisit an area from earlier and unlock a door. I can't remember if this game is supposed to be long or not.
