The movie script was written by David Self, known for Road to Perdition, and will be produced by Brett Ratner''

PS2 - God of War - God of War Banned in the Middle-East

The Sharjah Municipality of the United Arab Emirates is having trouble keeping copies of God of War off the streets. The Sony game was banned for containing language and scenes that go against Islamic beliefs, notably the killing of gods, which I can understand, given the circumstance. Despite the bans, the game is still apparently easy to get hold of.

PS2 - God of War - Is Lawsuit Looming Over God of War Shooting?

In Marble Falls, Texas last month, a 13-year-old boy shot a 15-year-old boy while they were playing the M-rated God of War. Troy is recovering from his wounds, but apparently has lost much of his eyesight. Although some gaming sites reported the news at the time, GamePolitics opted not to cover the story as the linkage to God of War seemed peripheral. Last evening, however, they received one of Miami attorney Jack Thompson's numerous e-mails.

God of War Betrayal dialed in

PS2 News | God of War

The big problem with cell phone games is that they tend to be designed for non-gamers. Sure, we know there are probably a zillion more copies of Snake out there slithering around on cell phones than there are Gears of War spinning in 360s, but that doesn't mean Snake doesn't suck. However, that may all be about to change with the release of God of War Betrayal, the first mobile game we've seen that actually had us pricing a new phone. Slated to hit this June for Verizon customers and in July ... » Read More

Let the SixAxis rumble rumors begin

PS2 News | God of War

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 ... » Read More

God of War II week, day 1: ancient history

PS2 News | God of War

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 ... » Read More

God of War dev's PSP project exposed

PS2 News | God of War

Monday 12 March 2007 David Jaffe, the action-brain behind God of War, has spilt some enticing info-beans about the ill-fated PSP project he was working on last year, though as challenging and interesting as it sounds, it's now consigned to development purgatory. "Heartland was the story of China invading America," David Jaffe explains in an interview with Entertainment Weekly, "where you played a soldier debating whether to stay and fight for America or go AWOL to meet up with your ... » Read More

God of War: First movie

PS2 News | God of War

According to ancient Greek mythology, the Hydra was a seemingly invincible multi-headed beast so fearsome that it would leave you with quakes in your boots and lumps in your loincloth. Not so for Kratos, the courageous hero of Sony's God of War. In the first nibble of footage that we've seen of the game, we witness the warrior cracking open a particularly ferocious can of pathos-flavoured whup-ass all over the mythical monster.Kratos' dual-wielded blades look like they'll be an absolute blast ... » Read More

God of War Greeks out

PS2 News | God of War

Every primitive society had a name for the god of war: the Romans called him Mars, the Greeks called him Ares and George W calls him Rumsy. But whatever the era, a hero will also emerge to defeat these capricious deities and this time the chap's name is Kratos. Developed by the same Sony team who brought the world the snarling face of Twisted Metal Black, this story-driven beat-'em-up dabbles in Greek theology but swaps the toga and sandals approach for a plethora of plate armour and a taste ... » Read More
