Watch: Johnny plays God of War for the first time

Late to the Party gets fabulous.

For one thing the gameplay is solid, but more importantly I never knew how fabulous Kratos is. For a muscle bound, rage filled killing machine, he's certainly a dainty Spartan. You can see how I got on in the video below. Be warned, however, this week's episode really isn't safe for work.
