This should be seen as a God of War game, not a PSP game and handicaped for it! Controls are actually better then on PS2, and graphics just as good. Read the 1up review, everything they said I agree with, but it gets a 9.5? why?? cause its a PSP game.<BR/><BR/>Why does part of me hate this game? It has only one real puzzle in the entire game(light beam puzzle on the balcony), and the story blows. <BR/><BR/>The last 3 areas of the game dont have one single puzzle in them, just fight after fight(looking at you Tartrus, Palace, and fields.) The area before Tartrus has one puzzle where you push a block so you can jump up on a ledge, so I cant technically say the last 4 areas of the game have no puzzles, but generally the puzzles stop half way through the game after you get out of Helios Temple.<BR/><BR/>the story seems decent at first, but by the end its pretty lacking. and I hate seeing Kratos WHINE to Atlas. Yeah thats right Kratos, the God of fucking war WHINES like a baby. "It's all I have Atlas!!!" give me a fucking break.<BR/><BR/>The story is just pretty boring, but my biggest complaint, is it totally doesn't acknowledge, the first God of War, that right, your game Jaffe. It doesnt mention Ares one fucking time. Where is Ares, does he even fucking exsist? This is supposed to be when Kratos is working for Ares. But they just make it more general, and say hes working for the Gods. The game ties in nicely whit what happens in the GOW2, but doesnt make any refrence to anything that happens in GOW1. This doesn't make any sense, cause it a direct sequel to GOW1. They dont go into Kratos killing his family either, even though a large portion of the story has to his daughter, canalope lol. Anyways none of this makes any sense since GoW1 is a direct sequel to COO. <BR/><BR/>The bosses werent nearly as great as the other one either. but whatever this is my smallest complaint.<BR/><BR/>As a tester and seeing a little bit of the development on this game, it was sad seeing this game limited so much by time. Anyone will relize this after they watch the lost levels and see what this game could of been. One puzzle sticks out in piticular, which reminds me of my favorite puzzle from GoW1, where Kratos sacrifices a guy in a cage. Which is funny cause I remember Jaffe saying something in the extras about them trying to cut it, but you wouldnt let them.<BR/><BR/>As a God of War game it falls short, and doesnt deserve anything higher then a 8 out of 10 imo.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36275738.post-21916683462091039282008-03-13T14:49:00.000-07:002008-03-13T14:49:00.000-07:00Way to go Dave.Way to go Dave.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36275738.post-86743743317921864592008-03-11T22:58:00.000-07:002008-03-11T22:58:00.000-07:00Hey man!

We know all Spartan warriors were white but since this is a game based on a fictional character could it be that he is black. In all the cut scenes before he was covered with ashes he looked like a black dude, even the ashes on him along with the outfit he wears look more like an african warrior than a spartan. He is voiced by a black guy and even you said in an interview that in the movie you would like for Djimon Hounsou to play him. I was just wondering lol.Da Dark Knighthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13302015528708288623noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36275738.post-88433291315424708732008-03-11T16:14:00.000-07:002008-03-11T16:14:00.000-07:00JACKRED666 IS A FUCKING NOOB!JACKRED666 IS A FUCKING NOOB!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36275738.post-72049438385339416812008-03-11T14:52:00.000-07:002008-03-11T14:52:00.000-07:00i cant believe it too long and an hiatus to watch ...i cant believe it too long and an hiatus to watch the movie 300 glad tta u din forget it .... well the pic indeed was interestin but its gonna give rise to sum greek combat chronicles of the mighty king loenardes vs the bad ass kratos ...? wat an amazing idea ...NOT .... gee tat will be a real pain in the ass i guess let them do what they do best in their own domains ...gary Zhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13628495980708322276noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36275738.post-58252653782491504142008-03-11T12:18:00.000-07:002008-03-11T12:18:00.000-07:00kratos would kick all 300 of thier asses in about ...kratos would kick all 300 of thier asses in about 10 minutes. 5 if he is usin rage of gods/titans.lol.<BR/><BR/>but i didnt like the movie. the fighting was cool but thats all i remember from the movie besides the guy tryin to blackmail the main guys wife.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36275738.post-81606103822860012292008-03-11T08:47:00.000-07:002008-03-11T08:47:00.000-07:00I just finished Chains of Olympus.

The thing I don't understand is why you are doing your self promotion here. Why use blogger? I wish you move to your own setup or at least use a wordpress blog and have someone make a custom skin for your site. The layout is not organized and all your videos should have comment sections. I really think that this old website layout is not the way to go and I really like that you are forward thinking with the video spots you are posting, but an new site could really help promote your ideas/games.
