im kind of tired of how people constantly call Hades evil and assume he is like Lucifer. He judges the dead and decides where they go, he doesnt bring death and force it down your throat. he is seen as evil because people in old greek mythology saw him as the final stage of death, and of course nobody likes death.

shellghost-thank you for justifying poor hades. i actually think hes gonna be kratoses ally in GOW3. their was some major forshadowing in the origional game. remember: "Athena's not the only god watching over you..." right after kratos miraclulously escapes the under world. oh and is it just me or does kratos have to die and escape hades in every single game?

What about Nike, Bia, and Zelus, Kratos' siblings?

Sabtos, cheers for the observant eye.

But I did say Hades was 'near' Titan-sized, not actually Titan-sized. If you look at those cutscenes he's still pretty hefty.

Plus, Wikipedia backs me up on the Icarus thing. And the hallowed repository of fact that is the Wik is never wrong. Right? Right?!

I knew someone was going to mentioned the Disney-fication of Hades and how because of Western society, he is now viewed as an embodiment of evil, which in actuality he wasn't. Sure he descended (ascended?) to Earth to find a bride and imprisoned her against her own will to where in her inslavement she grew to love him; Persephone (The woman's name, slightly misplelled by my stupidity)even was allowed to go back to Earth once a year to see her family so it wasn't so bad and evens out his bad act... sounds alot like the story of Beauty and the Beast, at least the Disney version.

...Not that any of this matters because in the end, all this game relies on isn't historical accuracy but "The Rule of Cool"!

i hope during the (if there is a) hades battle he summons the soul of the dude you kill in the hydra's mouth gow, send into the river styx in gow, and whose soul you kill during the barbarian fight in gow2, he was funny and it would be a nice little classic throwback

All of these are very good yes. But I think the one mythical enemy that we are missing here is Leonydas. Everyone wants to go face to face with 300's epic fighter. Especially sence cratos claims to be "the god of war".

What about the Manticore (volley of spikes at its disposel), Dryad (think an Ent, but GoW style!) Cetus (giant horrific fish monster) and Gigante (large like a cyclops but human like)? Those could work really well!

Hades would be a great boss to fight.

Not wanting to sound silly,but how about unlockable bosses with random battles against a giant sackboy or the bosses of mgs 4,maybe even ratchet with a giant clank behind him?
