God of War 2, I love you

9:31 PM on 02.07.2007   |   World Famous


God of War 2: It's beautiful and I wants it, I wants it bad. Check out this latest video released by Sony and try and convince me you won't be playing this when it comes out. I don't care who you are or where you came from, but you will be entranced.

In 2005 when we left Kratos, he had defeated the almighty Ares and was sitting upon his accomplished throne of Olympus. However, his anguish was not yet satisfied and his God status has been challenged by envious conspirators.  This Spring, Kratos returns in God of War II, available exclusively for the PlayStation 2 computer entertainment system, to unleash the blades on all those that stand in his way as he embarks on a vengeful odyssey to the end of the world, bent to change the unchangeable -- his fate.

If I had the money, I'd buy a PS3 (for the BC) more for that than any other current exclusive Sony titles.

March 13 to be exact. Fighting the Colossus and the God's of Olympus and tons of monsters from Greek Mythology is an amazing idea. Although fighting the Colossus in Rhodes alongside besieging Spartans is so grossly historically inaccurate it hurts. Then a griffin gets its wings sheared and I completely forget about it.

I know that and I don't even have a PS2. Yet. I saw the trailers for this game around E3 and I checked out GoW 1 and I'm seriously considering getting one. Probably from one of my less hardcore friends. I've been a loyal Xbox guy from it's first year (Playstation before that and Nintendo before that) but development for the Xbox has all but disappeared while the PS2 is still going strong with games like Okami and Guitar Hero 2 among others. Plus it's cheap.

I'm just glad they fixed that backward compat issue with HD and PS3s.

-> MattMac: PS2, not PS3. And ye, there was much rejoicing.

-> Deus: Just buy one. It's worth it. Trust me.

Gee, that looks tasty... G4 vids suck major dick though. And not in a good way.

I agree zaqu, a next gen Shadow of Rome type game would be great. Possibly on the 360, where certain kills could earn you special achievement points.

Wait, has there ever been a video game where the protagonist is out to DESTROY the world they live on? I can't think of one off the top of my head. I can think of plenty of games where you blow up shitty planets that deserve to implode (Metroid, LifeForce, etc) but none that are out to wipe out earth so they can live alone in it.

Niero:
Damage: The Sadistic Butchering of Humanity

Allegedly the ending features the protagonist masturbating after unleashing a global nuclear holocaust.

And not to sound wanting, but has my gift card been sent yet?

I've never understood the appeal of the first one. It gets repetitive very quickly. It was fun for the first hour or two, yeah but after that...
