Gods May Cry, I bet that jokes been done before, just like everything else in this game.

User Rating: 5 | God of War (Greatest Hits) PS2
By Orbrax | Review Date:
Who else would know how to use the Sony PS2's hardware to the fullest other than Sony them self. For this reason it's easy to see how God of War has such an unfair advantage over other action games on the PS2. With such amazing graphics, sound, and presentation it's very easy to look past it's shallow combat system and weak story.

The high rolling animations and dazzling effects can make you completely forget how you are just mashing buttons, the breath taking production value well make you overlook how stupid and unoriginal the story is, and the amazing voice acting will distract you from the corny writing. So on and so forth.

Nothing in this game is original. It's not just a Devil May Cry rip-off, it's a rip-off of pretty much every Devil May Cry rip-off, especially Rygar. Even how you build your character is just like in Devil May Cry. (There's even red orbs.) Most every characters from Greek Mythology and it annoys me with the liberty that they take with them.

Kratos also sucks. He kills him self as soon as the game starts, so there really no point of playing because no matter what you are going to die in the end, and the rides not even enjoyable.

I don't want to talk about this any more, so I'll just do what I did in my Halo 3 review.

Story
Not important.

Graphics
*sigh* The best of the system, we all heard it before

Sound
Good, nothing else.

Gameplay
Your just going to be mashing buttons in one room and solving the easieist puzzles in the world in the other, and then it's just rens and repeat.

Replay Value
A one way ticket.

Final Verdict
Just play Devil May Cry 3.
