Hi all!
God of War II will be released in a few hours (in the US. European gamers will have to wait till April) It is the sequel to the original God of War for the Playstation2. For those of us who played the original, this is a game worth gushing over. For those of you who missed out on God of War, I strongly urge you to pick up the original game and play through it before venturing into the sequel.
In short, it is a story of a ruthless spartan warrior by the name of Kratos. After having been betrayed by his master (Ares, the god of war) he journeys throughout ancient Greece to kill him. After a long and perilous journey through some vast and impressive-looking landscapes and battling creatures, demons and gods, Kratos finally confronts Ares, kills him, and ascends to the throne of Olympus as the new god of war.
The story of God of War 2 picks up from there.
The game has been critically acclaimed by numerous authorities within the gaming community:
* Gamespot: 9.2
* Gamespy: 5/5
* IGN: 9.7
* Gamerankings: 9.5
* other reviews
