God of War II
We just wouldn't be GamesRadar if we didn't have something in our weeklong God of War II coverage for all the pervy lowest-common-denominator types out there. Luckily for us, it's not just Kratos that goes topless in this Grecian gorefest - its other characters aren't afraid to flash a little nipple, either. Not even during combat with a seething incarnation of rage who can break Doric columns in half with his bare hands.
Unfortunately, while we had a really cool video cued up to show you, ...

God of War II
God of War II is tough, no question, but most of its battles - including those with bosses - can be won simply by mashing on the buttons and following the onscreen prompts. The game's toughest bosses, then, aren't necessarily the strongest, but the ones that actually force players to stop and think about how the giant monster in front of them relates to its environment, and how best to use that knowledge to kill it. You know, the ones that actually take strategy.
Of course, some of you just ...

God of War II
Gamespot.com reports:
"God of War II may use the same engine as the original God of War, but that doesn't mean the graphics are the same. The game development team was able to polish up the graphics and design more ambitious levels for the sequel. When asked to describe the graphical improvement, God of War II director Cory Barlog told GameSpot, "It's a huge difference. It's not as huge as in a generational difference where people say look at PS2 versus PS3, but Kratos, the model of Kratos in one and the model of Kratos in two, in God of War II is astounding--the quality difference."

God of War II
This week's edition of the regular Critical Reception column examines online reaction to Sony's God of War II, sequel to one of the highest-selling and best-received titles in the PlayStation 2's software library.
Few doubted that this highly anticipated sequel would fail to live up to the standards set by the original 2005 release, and thus far, Gamerankings.com has yet to receive a single God of War II review scored below 90%. Currently, the game averages a review score ratio of 95% among all sources cited.
GameSpy's Gabe Graziani is confident that God of War II earns a perfect score of 5 out of 5 stars, even when considering the many strengths of its prequel. "How could God of War II possibly live up to the successes of its predecessor?" he asks. "The answer, my friends, is astonishing, because GoW II completely eclipses its forefather by adding even more of the stuff that we loved, namely: blood, puzzles, cinematic presentation and fifteen minute long combos."

God of War II
Are there any two words in the English language more beautiful than "arterial spray?" Kratos doesn't seem to think so. Over the course of God of War II, the Spartan murder machine continues his unending quest to raise the bar for videogame gore by killing everything he meets in brutal and horrific ways. Whether it's being quickly smashed to pieces against a concrete walkway or spectacularly strangled, gutted and bashed through a window at the same time, nobody who gets in Kratos' way gets off ...

At the PlayStation Store in San Francisco this evening, SCEA put on a decent show for the midnight launch of the highly-anticipated God of War 2 game for the PS2.
One thing that didn't work out so well, however, was the Kratos-laiden, horse-drawn chariot - which crashed into the sidewalk right in front of everyone. It really was a classic sight.

Few games are so eagerly anticipated that retailers order 1.1 million copies to have ready and waiting on day one - but few games enable you to rip the eyeball from a cyclops ocular socket with your bare hands like God of War II does, so perhaps its no shock after all.
It should also come as little surprise that Game Director Cory Barlog confirmed at a press conference today that a PSP God of War is definitely in the works. The developer wasnt announced, but given the fact that Daxter ...

God of War II director Cory Barlog has dropped a heavy hint that the PS3 SixAxis will be given a rumble feature in the future.
It's amazing what can come from a launch party of a videogame. 1up reports that Barlog let slip a few interesting things about the future of the God of War series (which will obviously hit PS3 at some point).
Here's the clip: "Did Barlog just confirm that God of War 3 will be in 1080p with SixAxis and VIBRATION functions on PS3? He sure did! Whoa! Well, technically he ...

This week's top rental charts from U.S. game rental company GameFly, representing the most requested games for the week ending March 9, highlight both to-be-released and already released games in a unique demand-specific chart.
While previous weeks and months have been dominated nearly exclusively by games released for the Xbox 360, this latest chart finds Sony's highly anticipated God of War II for the PlayStation 2 as the most requested game across all consoles.
Ubisoft's Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter 2 for the Xbox 360 ranked as the second most requested title on the week's all platform chart, followed by Electronic Arts' Def Jam Icon. These two titles ranked as the top two requested Xbox 360 titles for the week, while Microsoft's sandbox action game Crackdown rounded out the console's chart in the third position.

God of War II is about to arrive in stores, and youre probably champing at the bit to disembowel another army of Greek monsters by now. But before you delve into Kratos second neck-stomping adventure, we thought you might appreciate a quick refresher on what came before. (And well just put a big fat spoiler warning right here, so that you cant whine later about how we ruined the game for you.)
Just ruining the ending wouldnt do the game justice, of course, so weve got much more than that in ...

God of War looks set to be heading to PSP, after a teaser ad has been spotted on the back of the instruction manual for GoW II.
A handheld version of Sony's bloody action game has been rumored for what seems like forever, but after 1up.com got its hands on an early copy, the rumor now looks to have stepped into the light and has been ...

Sony developer Eric Williams has used his blog site to beg gamers not to buy super-action sequel God of War II. At least, not until after April 1.
Williams reveals that during the game's development, in which he worked on Kratos' high-action combat design, he was coerced into betting against God of War II shifting 500,000 copies in the first three weeks of its US launch. And, if he loses, he "might have to blow his entire savings" on leasing a luxury Maserati saloon for a whole year, while ...

Rumors of God of War II running in 720p on the PS3 were debunked after Gamingbits.com contacted a Sony Representative for confirmation. Ryan B. from Sony Computer Entertainment America stated the Playstation 2 title is "only available at 480p."
The rumor originated from IGN's review of God of War II.

God of War II
You might remember the original God Of War 's rather adult minigame in which Kratos could pleasure a pair of topless wenches via a series of rhythmic button presses. It amused and disgusted us in equal measure.
Well, looks like God Of War II has upped the ante with a slightly better looking pair of harlots with which Kratos can prove his godlike status - this time in a swimming pool. The gag is that as our hero gets down to business the camera cuts to a cupid shaped fountain that "urinates" ...

God of War II
God of War II will not only be playable on the PlayStation 3, of course, but it will run at a true HD resolution of 720p. This is great news. While the original God of War was progressive-scan-enabled on the PS2, being able to play the sequel in 720p is a nice feature. Unfortunately, since the PS3 doesn't support rumble... some of us have a choice to make. Do I want my hands to shake when I rip someone's head off, or do I want to see more detail? It's a hard choice; I loved the rumble effects in the first God of War, but I'll probably go for the graphics.
So what do you think? How much value does this add for you?
