Simply amazing, immersive story, great game play, and unbelievable graphics, this is a must have for anyone with a ps2.
- Wow, just wow, This is a ps2 game? It looks like a ps3 or 360 game (in SD). Great effects, especially the blood effects. Everything was high end and crisp. I honestly don't see how they did this on a ps2 it is mind boggling!
Sound: 9.5/10
- Great sound effects and the music is really, really good at setting the mood, just fantastic!
Gameplay: 9.5/10
- Great combination of action packed fighting scenes, puzzles, and adventuring, lots of combat with a lot of great combos/magic.
Lasting Appeal: 9.5/10
- Long lasting, a lot of action so those hours you spend playing it will be very enjoyable and not dull at all.
Overall: 9.625 (rounded to 9.5, gamespot needs to get rid of the .5 and bring back .1 increments!)
- If you liked the first God of War this is a must have, if you like action/hack and slashes buy this game, although some of the blood/gore might turn squeamish people away. A must have if you have a ps2.
