PS2 - God of War - US indie studio signed for God of War conversion Texas-based Blast Factor developer Bluepoint helps switch PS2 titles to PS3.

The new versions of God of War 1 and 2 will boast Trophy support and HD visuals, all stored on a Blu-ray disc - which conveniently arrives in stores a few months before the arrival of 2010's God of War 3.

The games were originally developed by SCEA's Santa Monica Studio.

PS2 - God of War - God Of War Movie Has Different Ending Than Game? As you may already know, a film adaptation of God of War is currently in development. At least one entertainment reporter got a chance to read the script and while he notes that it's "almost slavishly" true to the game, it differs in one important respect: the ending.

PS2 - God of War - Sony Comments On PS2 God Of War Games Coming To Blu-ray Sony surveyed potential God of War III fans this week about what they'd like to see in a collector's edition for the PlayStation 3 sequel, including repackaging the first two games on Blu-ray.

That would almost certainly indicate that PlayStation 2 games would be playable on the PlayStation 3, a backwards compatibility option that the most recent PS3 configurations don't offer. And that would be just about the greatest thing since in-game text chat to hit the console.

Not so fast, Sony Computer Entertainment reps say. The console maker is not announcing updated PS2 support just yet.

PS2 - God of War - Brett Ratner Abandons "God of War" WorstPreviews writes: "Back in October, director Brett Ratner (Rush Hour, X-Men 3) revealed that one of the projects he is working on is a big screen adaptation of "God of War." Fan response to the news was not positive, which is why you'll be happy to hear that Ratner is no longer pursuing the film.

According to Production Weekly: "Over at Universal it looks like Brett Ratner has shelved 'God Of War,' and is moving forward on 'Trump Heist' with Eddie Murphy and Chris Tucker."

"Trump Heist" is a film about a group of employees who rob the rich residents of Manhattan's Trump Tower."

Yes, apparently there is a God.

PS2 - God of War - 411mania's Release List for the Week of January 26, 2009 411mania gives a rundown on this week's game releases. Highlights include The Chase: Felix Meets Felicity, DJ Max Fever, and Ninja Blade.

The Chase: Felix Meets Felicity
"Despite still being in pre-alpha, the glimpse that I got of The Chase at last year's E3 was already looking pretty good. Unfortunately, more high-profile 2D platformers like Mega Man 9, Bionic Commando, and Castlevania: Order of Ecclesia were getting most of the attention. So, it's understandable that this game was overlooked."

DJ Max Fever
"What's surprising is that PM Studios decided not to follow in Konami's footsteps by bastardizing the series with crappy songs from 2nd-tier US bands that nobody has ever heard of. Granted, most of the people who pick this up will not have heard of any of its songs either, but one of the game's main strengths is its song selection, and changing what works would kill the series before it has a chance to plant its feet."

Ninja Blade
"Ninja Blade is a 'Cinematic Action' game developed by the people who brought us the Otogi series"
"It looks to be a cross between Ninja Gaiden, Shinobi, Heavenly Sword, God of War, and Onimusha."

PS2 - God of War - Fanmade Sackboy Kratos Figurine For Sale on Ebay PS3Fanboy writes:

Despite the news of the LittleBigDelay, LittleBigPlanet is still the jewel in the eyes of many. It's the reason why there was such a boisterous response to the delay in the first place -- people still need their LBP like it's PB&J. A testament to that, someone somewhere has gone and made a 7-inch clay figurine of Sackboy Kratos (pictured).

In fact, the guy who made the statuette is selling his creation on eBay for some other fan to enjoy. At the time of this writing, the piece was at a $31 bid. Bidding ends at 9pm today, but that shouldn't stop you from at least checking out more pics of the immortalized Sackboy Kratos.

Find the Ebay item link after the jump.

Ratner, responsible for the Rush Hour trilogy and X-Men: The Last Stand, confirmed his role on the project at a Hollywood party recently.

"I really like Red Dragon, I really like the first Rush Hour, I actually really like X-Men 3. I'm not one of these Ratner haters who says, 'Oh the guy can't direct,' - I think he makes really entertaining movies," said Jaffe in a filmed response to the news.
