Hello, this game was good and all for the first 1 hour but then I came against the big Hydra, I kept on pressing O button but the pole couldn't get damaged, I kept trying and trying, just can't do it. The online guides did not help. I think this is just unacceptable, I give it 1 star.

I can't express how much I disliked this game. With a name like "God of War" I was expecting a decent fighting fighting game but it turns out this is pretty much a lame platform game. You'll spend lots of time capering around, jumping from one ledge to another- fun, fun, fun! Better to just drag out the old Nintendo and play Mario Bros.

Way too overated

This game was and is so hyped I thought it would blow its competitor at its release Devil May Cry 3 out of the water. It had decent action but no where nere the fun or variety of DMC 3 with annoying button combos to pull of finishing moves, this worked in RE4 when it was used sparsley and to make you watch cut scenes but is over used here. Had it not been so hyped I would have given it 3 stars as a rental, but it is worthy of 2.

I bought this about three weeks ago because I was bored with all my other games. I loved it from start to finish, I love greek methology and this was perfect. This game is no push over it can be very hard at times,like when you are in the temple to find pandoras box. In the temple you must do all of the challenges of every god. Pesidens challenge was the hardest because it was all underwater and you were timed. The second hardessed challenge was the callenge of Haties. you had to beat about a hundred of his minions before you can go on. The game has really good graphics and quite challenging so if you are interested in a challenge check this title out.

extremely overrated

you've heard that god of war is one of the year's best games and blah blah blah, but it isn't that great. The fighting gets boring after a while. There are a limited amount of combos you can use. The game can also be much more difficult at some times. The magic system does add a little variety, though. The game is relatively short. The voice acting for the goddesses is cheesy. It was fun to see the mythological characters i've learned about from history, though. Not a bad game, but not a great game that everyone raves about. It keeps a little bit above average.

hmm.. boring, repetitve, and oh yeah - IT DOESN'T WORK!

i wish to "god" i'd never heard of god of war. this game sucks big time.. ok let's start off. the story: lame lame lame. honestly they would have been better off putting no story in at all it sucks so bad. why do people criticize the story in some games but not a game like this? i don't get it. the story sucks. the gameplay: decent. not as good as spartan: total warrior but better than a typical game. graphics: good enough, no problem there. fun factor: not too hot. not enough variety to keep my interest.. just bashing a bunch of heads over and over. in a game like spartan: total warrior this worked to its advantage, because it became addictive. but in this game, it just gets boring.

ok, so far we have a decent game.. where does god of war REALLY go wrong? it oversteps its bounds. it doesn't know its place. a game like this should be somewhat-mindless violent fun. instead, it tries to be a smart game and interjects with stupid puzzles and the like. the boss killing kind of sucks because it will give you a task to do like "keep pushing triangle" and if you do it right, the boss is dead. if you do it wrong, you have to wait again for your instructions. gee, kind of like the way they train rats - "do this and i'll give you cheese." i hate that kind of gameplay because it's boring. of course people think that feature is good because it's new. but being new doesn't equal good.

and now to the clincher.. even though the game isn't that great, i was going to keep playing until I GOT STUCK. you must be kidding me. it's the year 2007 now, and they're still making games that DON'T WORK. so at this particular point, i go around and around trying to find every conceivable way to get to the next part of the level... and there is none. now if for example i was playing half-life 2, i'd just say "oh, i'm too dumb and impatient for puzzles, i'll consult a walkthrough." but that's half-life 2. this is an action game trying to be too smart for its own good. either that, or it was simply a bug in the game that got me stuck somehow. either way, it's frustrating and i hate it. and no, i'm not a bad gamer so don't blame it on me. i play online games and often score #1.

so, if you're looking for an average game, you can play it and hope you don't get stuck like me. if you're looking for a game very much like this but done better, play spartan: total warrior.

JUST BUY IT°°°

(i am not under 13, i just dont got a credit card...-.-)
This game is not only the best action/adventure game out there, i think it is one of THE best games.

You have fighting and combat, challenging puzzles, vivid worlds, amazing graphics and the main character is very complex. i would recommend this game to anyone who likes greek mythology, fighting, or just a good game.
