Well, I've hated God of War ever since I heard about that nasty minigame. Tell me, what's so good about God of War BESIDES the fact that it's got abuncha senseless nude? (You'll only like the nude if you're a desperate perv.)

Yup the 2% of the game that has nudity really makes the rest horrible. :roll: Story, graphics, gameplay, and presentation are all top notch. You should give it another try.

Nonsense.  Nudity is a beautiful thing and more people in real life and in games should go naked.  Nudity isnt always related to sex either, perhaps if you think so it is because of your own purient interests.

 

The reason god of war is a good game is because of the tomb raider / prince of persia style puzzles.  I really liked a lot of the parts where you were fighting while climbing on walls and on ropes.   However combat when on the ground gets pretty boring as the game progresses.

Nude is not senseless, it is when it takes place in a game with a target audience of 12-14 year olds in wich categorie gow fits perfectly

Just cuz you don't like the game it doesn't mean is horrible.

I hate lots of games but I don't go out saying "this sucks and that sucks cuz it's not what I want".

If you don't like this game go out there and get something different.

I've played this one and right now I have the second one, It's not bad at all to bo honest.

I can tell you I'm not good at it, I just smash all the buttons and do some crazy stuff, the graphics are great...The sounds are good as well, in the first level I got my butt kicked by the big statue(Sorry for spoiling that xD)I mean...It's not bad.

Did you actually play the game or did you just hear about suggestive sounds that play while a vase falls on the ground and decided you hate it?

And since this game plays in ancient Greece when partial nudism was normal, it's appropriate to have some boobs in the game. Not that many outside the US, where you can show slaugher and gore no problemo, as long as there's no naked rear end on screen would make a big deal out of it anyways.

If you are able to handle the gore and fighting, you should be able to handle some boobs. It really isn't a big part of the game, it's just fan service. The God Of War games are an adult title for a adult gamer, so it has adult issues. Deal with it or leave it alone. I think this are the best games made for PS2.

GOW is a good game--maybe not completely deserving of the lavish praise it received, though I tend not to be a really huge fan of action games--sorry to all of you Devil May Cry fans in advance.  But as a $20 pickup, GOW is definitely worth a play through regardless of your anti-boobie stance.

HAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!

You went out and insulted god of war, one of the best games on ps2 and you think you can stop this forum?

You really want to pick a fight, say something bad about Final Fantasy 7........

P.S. Its about time videogames had partial nudity. Many of us are adults in an adult world of movies and porn and looking at real boobs. Games have some catching up to do.

That's the problem with some of you "haters".  I said to myself that I would never use that term but with threads like these it actually warrants it.  Just because you don't like a game doesn't make a game bad or that is sucks.  That is your (original poster) very weak opinion (nudity).  It's weak because nudity doesn't make the entire game.  The game is rated M and GOW reflect that rating.  Your position regarding nudity, sex, oranything "adult" is your preference (If you are an adult).  But don't give off negative energy about a game just because you don't personally like it.  You will give everyone else who has yet to play it the wrong impression when in fact it's one of the better titles for the PS2 for good reason. 

Who decided that GOW is actually a good game?  Let me see here... Gaming sites such as gamespot, gamers who played it and appreciate the way the game is designed, presented and have now become fans, gaming critics, which helped GOW land nominations including game of the year for PS2, etc, etc. 

There's nothing wrong with challenging the majority that favors anything but when you have no logic behind your reasoning or if your reasoning is weak, you should just stop while you're ahead. 

This is for all games, not just GOW.

But really...dude...Isn't that bad.

It;s just a statue droping water from its part which doesn't look to be that mature unless you have a dirty mind.

Nah sorry, still boobs in GoW2. Sisters of fate, a hidden mini game. Oh well, mr no partial nudity up there cant play another great game.

I dont mind if people hate games for specific reasons, or even if they consider them bad. I hate Gran Turismo games, even though they are well made and very popular. But hey, wihtout people insulting videogames i like i'd have nothing to post about at 2am so fire away. Please can someone insult some Final Fantasies so i can watch a wave of hatred flood the boards? (I cant do it, i have to be in the wave cus i love them. Maybe if i make an alter ego....)
