God Of War is simpily amazing! The best action/adventure game I've ever seen. Here's the breakdown...
Graphics: With some of the best graphics on the PS2, God Of War dosen't lack much here. The cut-scenes are powerful and work well with the story.
Sound: God Of War has great audio that further inhance the gameplay. The music is some of the best I've heard and up there with Final Fantasy and Halo.
Gameplay: God of war plays like Devil May Cry and Prince Of Persia but better. Kratos' chain swords make the fights fast and brutal. The mini-games are fun and most of the time will leave your enemies down for good. I felt that God Of War needed more boss fights, but the never-ending action was enough to cover the hole.
Story: For a action/adventure God Of War has a deep and dark story that had me coming back to it time and time again. But beware as the story is mature and bloody.
Overall: The feeling of God Of War was of a darker version of "Gladiator the move". The main character is Kratos, a pale skin warrior with a brutal and tragic past. He alone is worth buying the game. I recommend God Of War to anyone who wants a dark mature story in an action/adventure game.
