"I have the PSP version of this game and I can't see what the fuss is about. Is it NOT a hack and slash game like any other?"
I must admit my only experience of God Of War so far is the PSP version as I'm waiting to get new PS2 before I attempt the first two games, if they play similar though it is just a hack and slash as far as a I can see and can't see why such a fuss it made over GOW. Still I've yet to try the home console games as I say so could be proved wrong. The same happened with DMC tho, so many people hold that up a some great game, and that's just a fairly standard hack and slash IMO.

Yeah I'll give you that Goodfella, if the PSP version is anything to go by the narrative is great (big Clash of the Titans fan so love Greek mythology!) and even on the small screen it looks epic. I just can't help thinking more is made of this series simply because it was the last "big" series on PS2. As I said tho I've yet to sample the home versions.
OK, no buts, I MUST fork out for my new PS2 on payday, I keep putting it off but saw GOW1 for a fiver in my local. / heads to Ebay

I didn't pick up on GoW until late, wondering what all the review praise was about.
I started off through GoW1 and it just kept getting better and better and better as it went on. The direction, story, set plays and especially the music ... just epic. The Pandora's Temple bit is just perfect, reminding you of all the classic ancient epic films you'd see as a kid. Fantastical location full of exotic traps. It just went on and on as well, I kept thinking "could this get any more epic? the end must be around the corner now?" but it kept on upping it! Thats where it succeeds, and betters itself over DMC/NG. |

The PSP version is not as Epic as the PS2 games were and much more action focused due to the limitations of the PSP. It was still one of the best games on the PSP though and the reason I bought one in the first place.
I recommend getting the PS2 games but but but I played these in 2005 and 2007 before I had a 'next-gen console' so I'm not sure how well they hold up to todays games. I'm sure that they are still awesome games but keep that in mind. Is it BC on the PS3, if you are lucky to have one of those early models? |

Couldn't give a shit about the story in this game. The story of the first one was alright but the second games story was utter shite. However it brought more spectacle, and more and better boss fights and was the better game. If this game lets me kick even more ass I'll be happy.
