Abstract: So here we are; two months after the US release and a hop, skip and a jump past the UK, Australians finally get a chance to step into the best action game on the PS2 - usurping the original God of War for the honour. Yes, God of War II is the PS2s swa...
Abstract: At the moment the PS2 has become a bit like David Beckham (hows that for an unexpected analogy) it knows its coming to the end of its life at the top and its resigned itself to finishing its career at a lower standard, but thats not to say its giv...
Abstract: What kind of encore can you come up with if you’ve ousted Ares, the Greek god of war, and assumed his place in the pantheon of deities? Well, you can star in the last, best videogame for Sony’s PlayStation 2, God of War II. This title pushes t...
Abstract: Everyone tries not to judge a game by the first hour. But no one wants to wade through a syrup of slow tutorials, tedious conversations and dull cutscenes either. Great as games like Metal Gear Solid and Okami are, they could learn a lot about how to s...

Everything. The graphics, the music, the voice acting, the combat, the puzzles, the story, the characters, the control... Name an aspect of the game and my reply will range from awesome to excellent.
I guess I would have liked to see more gigantic boss battles; The new weapons pale in comparison to the Blades of Athena; The game eventually comes to end.
It may still be early in the year, but God of War 2 has set the bar for all future 2007 Game of the Year contenders. You simply wont find a more satisfying single player experience on the PS2.

Abstract: How do you top what many gamers consider the greatest action game of all time? You definitely cant do it with a whimper--for a game as beloved as God of War, youve got to come out with a bang, one thats equivalent to a ton of dynamite sitting atop a...

Graphics that rival the PS3; incomparably immersive cinematic flow; riveting plot.
Daunting difficulty; having to come up with something else bad to say about GoW II.
I think we can all agree that God of War is among the best games released for PlayStation 2, so you can imagine how nervous I was slipping the God of War II disk into my PS2 for the first time. With such huge sandals to fill, how could God of War II po...
