Closing Comments
God of War: Chains of Olympus is a stellar achievement on the PSP. It plays perfectly into the franchise's storyline and offers up the same level of intense action as its console counterparts. It's also the best looking title on the system, without question. Engaging from start to finish, Chains of Olympus is a mandatory purchase for anyone who owns a PSP and doesn't mind getting a little blood on their hands

Chalk up another win for the biggest badass in gaming. :)

This, along with Crisis Core, Crush, and Vice City Stories, is the reason I bought my PSP. I can't wait.

I've made up my mind, I'm buying a PSP as soon as God of War comes out. I've been holding out for something like this.

I can't wait to get both of these games. I haven't bought anything for the PSP in a long while so it'll be nice to start playing it again.

Holy crap. I can't believe I'm saying this, but...I just might be buying a PSP in the future.

Here's to hoping the eventually port it to consoles though.

As a PSP owner, this is great. However, I sort of doubt it will get AAA on GS, just based on their ratings of short games. The IGN editor said it took them 7 hours to beat it, which means no matter how good it is GS will give it a lower score than it should recieve.

i just upgraded my custom firmware today so i could play patapon

now its all ready for gow... which is good, because updating the firmware was a pain this time

not really a big gow fan... the demo was ok

once im done with this and patapon my psp will be back to dead until ff:cc, ff:d and secret agent clank(prolly sell it after these titles)

im also busy with professor layton on the ds

but im kindve upset my psp battery pretty much dies once i go without using it for a while... i dunno if im doing a cold shut down before i put it away for months on end but deciding whether i should get a new battery, a slim psp or just sell my psp period is difficult

Look at Gears of War. It was short and was still AAA.

I got bored of the whole GoW formula with the first two games, they should've done something midly original and made something totally different (such as Ninja Gaiden DS).

Chains of olympus will be miles better than NG DS, it's not even funny. Everything from the graphics to the story, they really shouldn't even be compaired.

Great news for PSP owners. Last week Patapon and now God of War gets AAA.
