THERES NO DOUBT THAT THIS GAME IS THE BEST EVER ON ANY CONSOLE. IF U PLAYED THE ORIGINAL GOD OF WAR IT PICKS UP WHERE IT ENDED. THE BLADES OF ARTHEMIS U AQUIRED AT THE END OF GOD OF WAR COME HANDY IN THE BEGINNING OF THE SEQUEL. IT JUST SEEMS LIKE ITS ONE GAME BUT IT HAD TO BE BROKEN UP INTO TWO PARTS, THE MOVES ARE ALMOST THE SAME, SOME OF THE OLD ENEMYS FROM PT.1 ARE BACK, AND THERES TONS OF NEW ENEMYS. THE BEGINNING IS SUCH INCREDIBLE THAT IT SEEMS LIKE IF U WERE FIGHTING ONE OF THE END BOSSES. DONT EVEN THINK TWICE OF NOT PICKING THIS GAME UP. IF U ARE NEW TO THE GOD OF WAR WORLD, PLAY AND BEAT PART ONE SO U CAN FULLY UNDERSTAND THE STORY BEHIND KRATOS!

A stunning game with incredible graphics. All it needed was a "look" button to achieve full immersion. Still, a great installment to the series.

Perfect !

GOW1 was one of the best games I played PERIOD. From the unique story telling,to the combat everything about the game was great(save for the challenge of the gods being so hard,and after you beat it you couldn't use the costumes in God mode)but thats a trifle that can be overlooked when considering argubly one of the greatest playstation titles period.

Now on to GOW2, i haven't played it yet, but from what i've seen and heard, it's better than GOW1.There are more boss battles in this one(picture fighting a giant statue),more moves,magic,and challenge of the gods incorporated in save points(i think).Also, we get to fly(or at least glide)a concept scrapped in the 1st game,due to ripping Icarus' wings off(good ole Kratos.)I read that there were a couple of titans in this one, which are Kronos(the titan from GOW1 carrying the temple of pandora),Atlas(the fabled titan that was forced to hold the planet)and one named Gaia that saves you from hades after Zeus kills you(yep, ZEUS.)

Which leads me to the main boss of this game, from what I know it's Zeus himself(if anyone remembers that before you walked through the door that housed pandora's box in GOW1, there was a picture on the floor that showed two spartans battling Zeus,and it hinted to being a sign of things to come.) The game starts out with you losing your godly powers and fighting Collosos(the statue)you start out with fully powered Blades of Athena, Poseidons Rage,and most of the moves. But eventually when you go to Hades, you lose all of your powers and have to start from square one. Your goal is to get to the sisters of fate's temple(i dont really know why) and on the way you'll encounter new and old enemies(you even have to fight the Barbarian King you beheaded in GOW1 and some of his minions.)

All in all, this game is by far the best game of '07, and possibly the greatest ps2 series ever(minus Metal gear 2 and 3 and the FF series.)If you like story-driven combat,epic battles, and beautifully crafted gameplay, this is for you..

Impressive follow-up

I just finished the game. It took about 19 hrs total. This one is every bit as good as GOW1 in the graphics department, but story is nowhere near as good. I give it 4 stars only because its predecessor was better in my opinion. Still a great game.

Frustration, Dying and more Dying

SECA should be ashamed of themselves for subjecting people to this button mashing game. I spent a great deal of time trying to like the game, but in the end I just got too tired of having the game ignore my moves, spending 20 minutes trying to make just that perfect jump-jump-grab-grab-hit ect ect combo to milisecond timing required by the programmers. They even keep statistics on how many times they kill you.
Save your time, money and peace of mind and avoid this game like the plague.

Sure, the graphics are good, the gameplay engine is exactly the same, but this game in no way compares to Gears of War. If you can't afford a XBOX360 because you bought a PS3 on release day on eBay for $3500, then sell your kidneys or lie like heck on your 1040 and pick up the game and system at your local gaming store. Sure, I understand the PS3 motive, you wanted the system so you could pay full price for horrible titles like Mobile Suit Gundam when you could've picked a copy up out of the dumpster a week later. Hey, it beats dusting off your PSP you haven't played in months. Aside from what I just said, this was rated one of the greatest games of the PS2 by Gamespot, where 5 years prior Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3 received a perfect 10 out of 10, the best scored game for the system, by the waddling sack of baloney Jeff Gertsmann. So why waste your time with this inferior product when you could pick up a used copy of the best game for the system, Tony Hawk 3, for $4.84. Fairwell PS2, we hardly blew ye.
