    Small Kratos? Hell No!

    Any fan of the series can confirm that the God of War games are some of the best (if not) action games ever created. So here we have all of the best caracteristics of the other games, some few improvements and a whole new story. Can we ask for more? Yes, always! These are the best graphics on the psp by far to date, and not only that. The best controls, sound, camera etc. Just because Kratos is in a small screen, doesn't mean the brutality is diminished, and some solid puzzle solving, along with great battling controls, you will go along this epic journey who ends pretty quickly (i finished my first game in 03:41). Like always, there's some treasure to be unlocked and challenges to be beaten. And of course, the ultimate challenge, the God Mode.

    Finishing Comments: If you played the other games in the ps2, and own a psp, well, there's really no choice but to BUY THIS GAME! Great graphics, story, gameplay, music and some replay value, this is a game you can't go wrong.

      Chains of Olympus does not dissapoint. 0

      When I first got CoO I had read heaps of Gamespot and IGN revews saying how dissapointing this game was, so when I got it I had my doubts. But when I started playing CoO those doubts vanished. I will tell you why...Like all God of wars so far there is a complex and intriguing story, it is a lot more focused on Kratos's past and family like the first God of War game. This game is set before the first two games where Kratos is a servant of the Gods of Olympus, and is still trying to rid himself of...
