In God of War, Kratos, after being deceived into killing his wife and daughter, denounced his service to Ares.

In God of War: Chains of Olympus, Kratos will journey to lands that no mortal has ever walked upon.

brilliant!!

wobler from from Co. Armagh, N.Ireland, 5th May, 2008

After playing the demo, i have to get my hands on the full game, i know i only played the demo but it gives you enough gameplay to let you see how great this game is going to be, plenty of hack and slash, if thats what you're into. I haven't really got into the psp as i've got a ps3, also i just haven't played a game yet for the psp, were it has me hooked, so im quite bored of it, but this game has really impressed me big time, so i can't wait!

Lots of hype

A Customer from Worcester, 23rd May, 2008

Well if you own a psp you will be forgiven for thinking this is the greastest game ever to be released for the hamdheld. In truth, its too short and very very linear. There are so few real choices you have to make, you rarely have even a single side room you can choose to look in. To look at the graphics are great, i can deny that, and they run pretty smoothly as well. But dont get fooled into thinking this game is the greatest ever, the biggest problem is while it is fun to play most people finish it in 5 or 6 hours. Good but not Great.

Did you like God of War I and II? Then you'll like this.

A Customer from Paisley, Scotland, 5th December, 2008

It's the prequel to the series and follows Kratos between when he became a servant to the gods and the events of God of War I. It's great fun, very gory and has occasional nudity. Oh, and quicktime events. Lots of them. I enjoy 'em, but if that's the kind of thing that puts you off don't bother with this title. It only takes around 5 hours to complete and has limited replay value. There is a new mode unlocked upon completion but it doesn't add much. But hey, that's why we're renting, right?

God of PSP

martinedwards from from Derby, 15th September, 2008

This has got to be the best looking game on the PSP, probably by a long way but I haven't exactly played on it much lately. Looks awesome, starts off very cool and makes you feel like you can just beat up however, whatever you want, then it stays like that, which I suppose is good but it actually gets a bit boring. Luckily just when it starts to get too much you finish it so hey. I would say it is probably a game you could play again but I wont personally. If you fancy a change and want to wipe the dust off your PSP or think it's a bit expensive to be a rear view mirror then give this game a shot. Short but sweet/ish.

Must Have

A Customer from Shrewsbury, 2nd September, 2008

I didn't rent this game but I owned It, I completed G.o.W.1 and I knew this game was something, to be honest I didn't read any reviews for this game, it was one I just knew was going to be good.. and at times when you play it you really cant believe, either how good the game it or just the amazing graphics... wow its really one of the few games you can play again after completing it.. Just none Stop action and a must have game.
