"Satisfying"
5 stars"

This game is brutal. You'll be amazed at how much blood and gore you can do in this, and it being a PS2 game!! It truly is stunningly beautiful with the graphics rivalling any other PS2 game out there.

You are Kratos, under the service of the Gods of Olympus, serving them for eternity until your memories of the past are finally erased by their hands. The story in this game is quite good and will compel you with Kratos' bloody history which is shown in these cool little slow motion flashback painting kinda scenes.

The combat is where this game shines. You seem to have an unlimited palette of combos to utterly destroy all foes standing in your way. The enemies are varied and different, keeping the game fresh and fun. The gore and blood is awesome and will keep you entranced throughout the experience.

Yes there are puzzles in this game and damn are they confusing!! It's great fun to finally figure out a puzzle and conquer a certain part of the game. Some are more frustrating then others but if you have patience the reward at the end is worth it.

Overall a great game in the well crafted lore of Greece mythology.

"First of its kind "
5 stars"

This game is great and has earned its r16 rating with a combination of mythology adventure and elements of puzzle solving weaved into its monumental story. Kratos is truly one of the best video game badass's tearing limbs off his foes and releasing a wave of violence apon the hordes demons that appose him and just to prove a point they made it a trilogy for a reason.

"this game will blow your mind along with the sequells"

god of war well what can you say god of war had to have been one of the best games of its year it is brutal the massacre is endless the graphics are very good and the moves you can pull will blow you away.

in this game you set of as a character named kratos you were a die hard Greek general until you had to call upon the Greek god ares to get you out of a tight spot but only on one condition after he did you had to do his biding and when you finally thought enough was enough you left ares and ran. But the gods have called to back but this time Athena has called upon you to kill ares who is destroying her city.

so as you would have guessed you set of to kill ares were you must face of against the most foul of creatures the ones you would not want to hear going bump in the night so as you battle your way through the hords of monsters and various bobby traps ares is destroying athens.

you will encounter fun little mini games as well (that are quite enjoyable.) awsome bobby traps hords of monsters eg: cyclops,gorgon­s,harpies,wra­iths,minotors all your usual Greek mythology monsters.

oh and before i forget i would recommend getting good of war 2 and now for those people with PS3s i recommend god of war 3 thanks for reading this review
