God Of War
 

I got this on ps2...dunno if it made it to any other formats...
But, holy fuck what a KICKMUTHAFUCKIN'ASS game!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It works a little like the LOTR games in terms of battle sequences but IMP a shitload better...you're not completely innundated with enemies, so you can clearly see what's going on, but there's no shortage either.
The storyline is quite decent so far, graphically it's excellent, the scenery (at least for the first stage) "feels" very real, and the music and ambient sound is allllll good.
The bosses? Not stupid...there's ways to beat them that you have to figure out, not complex...but there's more to it than just hacking away at them, just how I like it, the first major battle with the hydra is fucking intense.
The combat in general is gonna be a treat for anyone who likes a real chunky fight...there are SO many different things you can do while fighting, bodyslams, grabs and throws, and ripping people in half never gets old. This game is bloody and viscious....so, so, so, so, so good.
I would reccomend this to anyone that's after a good, solid action title.

I agree, amazing game, can't WAIT for the sequal.

Yeah, God of War is really good. I'd say that it ties with RE4 for best action game of 2005. I haven't heard about the sequel yet though... when is it supposed to be coming out?

Now that it's part of the "Greatest Hits" thing and the price is awesome, I think I might get this. Definatly looks like my kind of game.

God of War 2 is coming on PS2. GOW was neat but easy only certen puzzles make it little hard at some point.

God of War II

Haha...the golems and minotaurs on level 2...I love how there's a learning curve with each of the enemies, gotta say, it's not an easy game...

#2 huh? I'll check that out in future for sure.

Well Well Well
 

I Finish God Of War 1
And I Have God Of War 2
It's More Fucking Action And Hard Levels It's Fucking Awsome Game

You're in Egypt, and you have god of war 2....I smell bootleg....
All good.

I only wish more ps2 games were as good as this...

Seriously considering buying this over the weekend...

Close to a month later...

Im going out in like 10 minutes to buy this. How hard is it?

Bought it and read through the manual...Holy crap! You wont be seeing me for at least a few hours, I'm off to Athens!

Well I hate to quadruple post, but after spending the past hour on the PS2 I had to come on here and rave about how awesome this game is!

Im agreed with Cheeb, the Hydra battle definatly is "fucking intense", I loved it. The graphics are phenominal, the gameplay is great, I love the storyline thusfar....seems like a great game! Not overly difficult, but not easy either.

When you beat the game you'll unlock "God Mode" a.k.a. "Super impossible throw you into-a-fit-of-rage mode"....try it then come talk to me.
:rolleyes:

But seriously it IS a great game,really pushing the limits of the PS2 and the storyline is pure gold too.

Rented it out, but found it a bit too hard to complete.

It amazes me how smart this game was made. Even though they're never very complex (at least up to where I am), they're always brilliant in their ingenutity.

Still an awesome game

great game if just a little short.

I played this game way too much today.

Usually Im not the type to lose track of time while playing a game. Usually I'll play for around an hour, tops. Not today though....4 hours straight:eek:. I did get pretty far though...from the Temple of the Oracle to part way through the Challenge of Atlas. I told myself as soon as I got to The Rings of Pandora that Id quit next save point...little did I know that would take close to an hour:o

Crazy addictive game.
