Best Action Game Ever
PostedSeptember 7, 2008
God Of War II continues the tragic Spartan Kratos' saga in the follow up or one of the greatest games of all time. And trust me, this is truly the definition of "the perfect sequel". One of the things fixed this time around is the amount of boss battles. Truly an epic number! The graphics are the best on the ps2, and they rival many next-gen games as well. The soundtrack is awesome and can affect emotions as you play the game, much as in the first game. The cutscenes are very well scripted and the voice acting is oscar-worthy. This is a truly cinematic experience that is a must own for any gamer. It is the best entry in the series so far. It is one of the few games that can take away some of the lust for a PS3 from those e who don't have one. But then again, when you have a game this good, who needs next-gen? PS3 who?

PostedAugust 22, 2008
Ok if you didn't play the first game thats ok because it doesnt really matter anyway!!!!! The story takes place on earth and you are Kratos! Your a god from heaven and your really angry! Because the Greece is fighting the world again and your like really mad. anyway! you go down to earth bout to kill the world and the special bird comes down and shirks you then you go through (really hard) missions and your trying to get respect to become a god again because they dont respect you! And you love killing, so you go through what it seems (impossible) missions that are so hard that i had to take asprin, So anyway it is a mindpuzzling, action thrilling, Mind throbbing, Game so go buy it and if you dont your making a big mistake!! so go buy it and you want regret it!!!! :)

You are Kratos, the God Of Games...
PostedAugust 4, 2008
I have never played the first GOW, but I can tell you that this one will knock your socks off. The graphics are on par with a CGI movie, the music score helps bring the game to life and the amount of jaw-dropping swordplay is enough to please any action fanatic. Last year, when I first read the article for it, I thought "Oh Geez, BORING!" But that is totally the opposite once you play it. Another thing worth mentioning is the incredible voice acting, Kratos is played to perfection, although my favorite voice is Atlas, played by Michael Clarke Duncan. My only quibble with this game is the camera angles, which seem to stay in the same spot until you almost completely vanish off-screen. I would also like to note that the level of violence is quite high so this is strictly Teens or Adults. Overall, this game scores a 9.1/10 in my book. Please see some of my other reviews, I will be posting many!

GOD OF WAR 2 IS AWESOME BUT YET ...
PostedMay 29, 2008
First , i would like to say that this GOW 2 is awesome , unbelievable good . The graphic is amazing and far beyond what i expected it would be . Its' interface and control are so good which makes the game become this great . woo0 , the sound makes the game come alive and it also keep u wanna play it all along . However , I, myself feel like the length of the game is short for the action and storyline game type . A little bit longer and more chapters would make this game more exciting and more fun . I personally think that the levels features in GOW the first and second are pretty hard to play . You just could not keep the experiences and use it to play at another modes such as HARD , GOD and TITAN . They are extremely hard to be beaten by a rookie like me , i know .... Anyways , trust me , this game definitely have to be in your PS2 collection if you are fan of the action type . Thanks for reading my comment .
