I lost this game a year ago and then I was reunited, THANK GOD. You have got to get this game
This game is a great 3d combo of greek mythology, killing and amazingly hard puzzles, the game creators realy took some time in making this game (three years to be exact). Totaly worth the wait.
In GoW you are the great spartian Kratos wo leads his army to massive massicars all to please the god Ares (The present god of war) who helped him in his time of greatest need. Later he goes to destroy a village when he comes across a temple that for some strange reason, he doesnt want to go into. But Ares commanded him to go in there and kill the people inside who were praying to the god Athena, Ares sister who has his fathers (Zuse) heart.
So Kratos summond the strength to go in and killed the people inside, but the two last victims of his massicre were burnt into his mind... His family.
His wife and his child, killed by the will of Ares, Kratos then swore to kill his metore, the God of War.
After 10 years of suffering nightmares about what he did that night the gods gave him a task, a task only a mortal with great powers such as himself could do, destroy the god Ares. Ares had waged a war with Athena's city of Athens (Yes they do look alike but they sound different). But the gods ar not allowed to fight eachother, so Athena summons Kratos, 'The Ghost Of Sparta', a mere mortal with the power of pandoras box to fight him...
Definatly worth buying
