5.0 out of 5 stars
A mature game for a mature audience,
By Dan (Ottawa ON) - See all my reviews
This review is from: God of War (Video Game)
Simply one of THE (bold, triple underlined) best titles on Playstation 2. The story is well told, and builds up slowly... at first you don't really know why Kratos (the main character) is the angry, twisted guy he is - you may even find yourself completely turned off by him - but by the end of the game, you'll understand completely where he's coming from. Also note that this game is rated VERY M. And I don't mean your typical "rated M for violence," I mean "rated M for everything." But the amazing thing is that though the story is very violent, it is by necessity, and not once does the whole thing seem gratuitous or pretentious. Where this game really shines is in its gameplay. The combat system is simply the best I've ever seen for a game this type (though Prince of Persia 2 is a close second IMO). There is plenty of platforming, puzzle solving (about half of the game is solving one REALLY BIG puzzle), and yes, lots of bad guys to beat up. My only issue is that I would have liked to see more boss fights. The few that are there, though, are nothing short of spectacular. GoW has some replay value, too. For example, beating the game once unlocks "God mode". Basically just... REALLY hard. ALMOST Ninja Gaiden hard. Also the graphics are unbelievable - they almost make GT4 look cartoony :) In short, BUY THIS GAME NOW. And don't buy it for your pre-teen kid. Or your teen kid for that matter. You've been warned :P

Game of the Year,
By Josh Rawlings "Makubex" (Miramichi, NB Canada) - See all my reviews
Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars
This review is from: God of War (Video Game)
This game won the best game of the year award as well as several others. The game offers different combos for each type of enemy as well as different weapons and magic as you progress through the levels. Each boss you encounter has its own unique and every entertaining battle sequence. The story itself is amazing and very well told on top of fantastic computer animated movies that give you a visual view of the progressing story. After it is all said and done, and the game is beaten, you can do the challenges of the gods, which unlock different suits each having their own special ability. (IE: Cow Suit = Unlimited Magic) The replay value after obtaining these suits is very high. Enjoy because honestly once you start the game you have no choice, unless you have no soul.
