It's not often the programming talent of a development house sticks out, unless in a negative or broken way. It's kinda like special effects in the movies, they only really stick out when done poorly and if they do their job properly they should be invisible to the watcher. Well, normally I'd apply the same [...]

The (tiny?) catch is if you want “guaranteed access” to the multiplayer beta test you need to pre-order Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots. I don’t foresee this being an issue for Metal Gear fans who already own a PlayStation 3 since they were likely to purchase Metal Gear Solid 4 on day [...]

Sony mentioned God of War: Chains of Olympus was coming in March, but the actual launch date is far from the end of the month. The prequel to the God of War franchise will appear on March 4. Ready at Dawn has done a superb job of translating the action to a smaller screen as [...]

  While I was playing the demo for the upcoming PSP God of War game I kept coming back to the same thought… I can't believe this is running on PSP hardware! The graphics look just like the PS2 game and there were no slow-downs or hiccups to break up the action.   God of [...]

  God of War: Chains of Olympus wasn’t playable at Sony’s Gamers Day, instead one of the team members from Ready at Dawn studios demoed the game. God of War: Chains of Olympus is set before the events of God of War where Kratos carries out the will of the gods. Kratos has his Plume [...]

  God of War’s first mobile debut won’t be on the PSP, Kratos is coming to a mobile phone near you way before God of War: Chains of Olympus comes out. Last week I spent some time playing God of War: Betrayal and it’s a faithful rendition of the franchise. Like other God of War [...]

As the God of War II instruction booklet revealed Sony was bringing God of War to the PSP and the trailer is visually impressive. While I loved God of War I and II, I’m not quite sold on Chains of Olympus yet. It looks too much like God of War at this point. Kratos is [...]

Sony dropped the price of the PSP Core Pack in North America $30 cheaper making the price of a PSP $169.99. Not a moment to late either with some unique games like Tales of the World: Radiant Mythology, Crush and the Final Fantasy Anniversary Collection games in the pipeline. In the long release there is [...]

Siliconera reader smi73y pointed us to a new God of War 2 video he (or she?) made that uses edited footage from fights to make it look like Kratos, the Colossus and other monsters from God of War 2 are dancing. It’s a clever clip that has Colossus clap his hands and Kratos rip off [...]

…then I’m getting right back to it. Like a junkie looking for his next fix, since God of War II has been released I’ve thought of little else besides playing the game. It’s one of those rare titles that seems to encompass my entire life until I’ve worked my way through the entire game. Lucky [...]

Sony made this hilarious video of people “larping” (cosplay X acting) as different God of War II characters. In the first video a group of people hit each other with foam weapons and “get their fight on” in a large battle versus Zeus. The official Battle of the Gods site has more larping vids where [...]

Unlike the Gamecube and Xbox the Playstation 2 is far from dead. God of War II is scheduled to come out in March and in a special two disc package with production details on the second disc. One thing God of War made good use of was the takedown mini games to make more dramatic [...]

  The same studio responsible for Twisted Metal and God of War has a bunch of jobs posted on Craigslist. Positions are open for Producer, Associate Producer, Senior Level Designer and Senior Technical Artist. The jobs are advertised with the tag “join the God of War team”, maybe they looking for additional help on God [...]

The Barbarian King from God of War is back with a vengeance. One of his main attacks is charging towards Kratos with his steed. To counter this Kratos can use one of his new abilities, wind bow magic. With this spell Kratos can attack at a distance and avoid the charging strike. After the Barbarian [...]
