Malefor was so easy!
Gaul should have been the dark master cause Malefor is just a push over!
Seriously Gaul is actually a threat but Malefor is just a weakling.

Malefor was too easy. They should've made it more difficult. It took me no more than two minutes to defeat him.

You have to take it all in, when I first played on the valley of avalar I felt like i could play on that level forever, but alas, time passes and you eventually get used to the beauty and it doesn't feel the same as it used to. smilie

I don't think I'll ever get any game on consoles such as wii, xbox360, ps3, etc. Idk why, but I'm just really into the older consoles.
