Playing as an antihero in a videogame is nothing new, but 2005's God of War was, for many, the first time they'd been asked to play an outright villain. Protagonist Kratos never made the “right” decisions, always disposing of his enemies in the cruelest ways imaginable and murdering anyone who wasn't of immediate use to him. Still, he turned out to be one of the most compelling characters we'd ever played as, so we couldn't help rooting for him as he went from being a tormented ...

Sonys Santa Monica Studios, the developers of God of War, really know how get your attention. While many other games greet your with a warm induction handshake or allow you to dip your elbow in the water before embarking on an adventure, this game strips you down, slaps your cheeks, and leaves your cheese out in the wind.

Within barely minutes of game time youre tearing chunks out of the multi-headed Lernaean Hydra, whirling the Blade of ...   » Read Full God of War II preview

After all, the first game was a gory, mythologically-inspired masterpiece of flesh-rending, blood-spurting, gore-filled action. And one look at the trailer for the also-on-PS2 sequel was enough to convince even the most skeptical gamer that the second go-round between anti-hero Kratos and the entire mythological world was going to be bigger and better. A ...   » Read Full God of War II preview
God of War 2
No mercy for monsters
Mar 24, 2006
At Wednesday's Game Developers Conference keynote speech, gamers and developers got a good look at the PS3 and what it can do. But they also got a good look at something else. Something dark, horrific and not at all next-gen. Yes, the LocoRoco video was terrifying, but the good news is that God of War is back on the PS2. What does that mean? More brutally beautiful, third-person mayhem, with our man Kratos killing mythic enemies by blade or bare hands. God of War creator David Jaffe took the ...   » Read Full God of War II preview
