One of the Better God of War Games
PostedJanuary 30, 2011
God of War needs no introduction. Anyone who has a PS2, PS3, or PSP has either played or own the God of War games. God of War: Chains of Olympus is actually better than some of the more recent God of War games, surprisingly so because this game is on the PSP. Nearly everything about this game is near perfect. The game play is classic God of War, with all the violence and gore towards mythological creatures found in this game. Yet what sets this game apart from the recent God of War games is a sense of humanity found in the main character, Kratos. Chains of Olympus is one of two God of War games that actually portrays Kratos as more than a mindless god-killing monster. In this game, Kratos is forced to decide between two things, leading to one of the of the most personal moments found in any video game I have ever seen. It is the defining moment n the series, and it doesn't involve any gore or violence at all.
Chains of Olympus is the game to own for the PSP. It is a good looking game, plays perfectly, has a good story, and is epic in scale. It is a great game to play and is almost worth buying a PSP for.

Psp ftw!

This is the sole reason I bought my psp, and even though I have beaten it, I have not regretted buying the psp just for this. Sure the story is short, but deal with it!

PSP, how does DS sell more than you?
PostedJanuary 10, 2011
This game was so good, lots of action and gore appear in this game so if that creeps you out I'd perhaps stay away. What I thought was very nice about this game was that its graphics were comparable to mid to late PS2 graphics, so it blows all other handheld graphics out of the water. The story is gripping and interesting to history savy gamers because of the fact that it perfectly combines historical fact with the impacts of Kratos's actions. I absolutely recommend this game to all hardcore gamers.

Only second to one
PostedJanuary 5, 2011
This game is only second to one other psp game, and that happens to be God of War Ghost of Sparta. with that said this game is still amazing. there are few games that look this good on the psp system and most of them are not even as close to this game. the gameplay stays the same as in other god of wars, but this of course is not a bad thing. The sound is very deep and the music is great, you are definately going to want headphones for this one. Even though the game is short, it is still fun to play over and over again. i myself have played it twelve times. The only thing i was dissapointed in was its lack of bosses. it only really has three, and only one of them is on the large scale we expect from god of war. the story is good and deep. it shows that kratos does have feelings and why he hates the gods so much. For the price you will not find a better psp game, and even if it were still the price as release it would still be worth it. but this game really should be played by mature players only.
