Kratos is an amazing Anti-hero

User Rating: 9.6 | God of War (Greatest Hits) PS2
Alright you all have heard of God of War i bet. One of the greatest games of 2005. Based on Ancient mythology where theres spartans-hydras--weird snake thingys--minataurs and so on

Ok well u play as Kratos a pretty much pissed off warrior who wants to kill the god of war (thus the title) Well he sets off on a journey to find a way to kill the god

Through the game u find out about kratos' past. He was a captain in a greek army or something. but than he was about to die so he ask ares to save him and the god did (are sis the god of war) well throughout tht he pretty much worked for ares but than ares tricked him into killin his own family and now he is tryign to kill him

anyway

Graphics--Pretty good there some times annoying graphic bugs tht show up and freeze the game (rarely) but hey nothings perfect. The world in the game is massive or at least they make u belive tht it is. From athens to the desert, to the depts of hades each enviroment is detailed and realitic

Sound--By the gods this is the best part of the game. I cant belive i like listenign to freaking orchestras is awesome. theres even a option to soften the sound a little bit which is funny because tht game's sound just surrounds the room its just the best part about the game.

Gameplay--alright the game play was alright. You have a lot of upgrades so tht u can upgrade all your god powers and your blades of chaos which is good.--u upgrade them by findign red orbes. Yopur main weapons are the blades of chaos (the best weapons in the world) there a bunch of chained swords attached to your very skin. there awesome. but anyway when u get nto the game and u start gettign surrounded by enemies you pretty much would tend to just press the attack buttons until there dead. well this happens alot thro8ughout the game and kinda gets u lost in how to combine all your attacks to get more combos and so on blah blah blah. w/e its all good

Replay Value-after u beat the game w/e lvl u started at (i started on partan mode) the game tells u to attampt god mode which is wat it seems like. I swear u need god to help u out on this one. ITs freakishly hard. but still nothin tht different just harder enemies and so on . not really worth playign unless u want to unlock some stuff liek soem stories abotu god of wars sequels maybe...

overall this game is just amazing as it seems (except for the ending) its good enough for anyone thts into the hack and slash- gory games. did i mention theres a few times where u see some boobies O_o. anyway those are just soem of the reasons y its rated M but hey if u can buy it and enjoy
