This and Devil May Cry 3 are the best games to come out for the PS2, recommended for anyone that likes action games.
One of the best ps2 games ever if not the best!

This game features graphics you never would have thought possible on the PS2. The game also features tons of action. A guide of some sort (online walkthrough or store bought) is a must to maximize the game's potential. This is due to the fact that it's not always obvious what you must do to advance. Every few years a game comes by that knocks gaming on its ear. Grand Theft Auto III was one of those games and so is God of War II!
Good Job

I have always been a sports game junkie, so don't usually go for these type of games, but...... when I saw my kid playing this game...it was over, now I'm addicted,I did'nt want to get a PS3 but now I have get it so I can play GOW 3.

I HAVE TO SAY THAT I WAS VERY EXCITED WHEN I BOUGHT THIS GAME. I HAVE BEEN LOOKING FORWARD TO THIS GAME FOR QUITE SOME TIME. THE BOSS BATTLES ARE EPIC. THE MUSIC IS PHENOMINAL, THOUGH IT DOES NOT IMMERSE YOU LIKE THE FIRST GAME. THE GRAPHICS ARE ON PAR WITH ANY GAME THAT THE PS3 OR XBOX 360 THROWS AT IT. THOUGH BE FORWARNED, THIS GAME LOOKS MUCH BETTER ON THE PS2. I PUT THIS INTO MY PS3, AND MUCH TO MY CHANGRIN, I COULD NOT BELIEVE HOW MUDDIED THE GRAPHICS WERE AND IT DID NOT EVEN UPGRADE THE SIGNAL TO PROGRESSIVE SCAN TO FILL MY HDTV. I AM AWARE OF THIS PROBLEM WITH PS2 GAMES, BUT HOPEFULLY SONY WILL RELEASE A FIRMWARE UPDATE SOON(NO EXCUSES SONY! SHAME ON YOU!). THE COMBOS, PUZZLES AND MINI-BOSS BATTLES NEVER GET OLD AND I COULD NOT PUT MY CONTROLLER DOWN JUST TO SEE WHAT TRANSPIRES NEXT. THE ONLY DISAPPOINTMENT, IS THAT THE STORY IS NOT AS ENGAGING THIS TIME AROUND. I TRULY BELIEVE THAT THIS IS JUST A BUFFER FOR THINGS TO COME(GOD OF WAR 3 FOR PS3!). TAKE MY ADVICE AND PICK THIS ONE UP PRONTO!
Bring on the Pain

God of War II is a great sequel. It has an interesting story with great scenes. Despite it being on the PS2, it plays great on the PS3, cutting the load times, etc. And for a PS2 game, it has spectacular views, effects, etc.
The game is a mix of battles, puzzles, and mini-games. It is challenging trying to figure out the problem, or trying to get special items. To take down certain enemies it sometimes utilizes a mini-game to accomplish the feat.
Only seldom is the lack of camera control a problem. Mostly this occurs when a large enemy blocks your view of Kratos, making it hard to see what you're doing.
There are many different elements to this game, making it very enjoyable for repeat plays. Sometimes I find myself going back to see if I can defeat a boss/puzzle quicker.
