God of War saw Kratos, a mortal warrior, set upon an epic quest to dethrone a God. But his journey did not end there. In God of War II, Kratos sits atop his Olympus throne, as the new God of War - far more ruthless than Ares ever was. To end his continued torment, Kratos must journey to the far reaches of the earth and defeat untold horrors and alter that which no mortal, or god has ever changed, his fate. God of War II sets an epic stage for a devastating mythological war to end all wars.

Includes a bonus DVD featuring an in-depth behind the scenes look at the making of God Of War 2, plus cut-scenes, concept art, trailers and much more.

Superb!

A Customer from Somerset, England, 15th August, 2007

God of war 1 is by most considered one of, if not the best PS2 game of all time. God of war 2 is better. Speaks for itself, this game is simply superb.

Amazing Gameplay

Liamo from , 27th June, 2007

Fantastic fighting game, tonnes of hours of gameplay. Requires alot of brainpower, strategy and button tapping. I loved God of War 1 but i thought God of war 2 is somehow better.

God of Games

cazzy1001 from from London, 12th August, 2008

blade-swingig anti-hero Kratos is back once again for more blood fueled carnage. this time he is a revenge mission, targeting the gods themselves. I rented this game post purchase of my ps3 and, to be honest, i was worried that the lack of graphical power of God of War II, in comparison with current generation standards, may detract from the overall expience. IT DID NOT. this has to be the most emersive, addictive, jaw-dropping, baddie-brawling, technical masterpiece ever to hit the ps2. the boss battles are even more spectacular than the previous installment and the new improved platforming mechanics and puzzles break up the 'in between' bits to mare sure decapitating demons NEVER becomes stale. I reccomend this game above all others on the ps2. enjoy ;)

God of War 2

donwoogie from from London, 16th April, 2008

I was a big fan of the God of War series and here lies the second instalment of the game. The original game was a fun mix of action, platforming and 3d-puzzle solving all whilst providing an engaging storyline set in the Ancient Greek Mythology era. The locales and epic boss fights made the original game great. God of War 2 changes this formula slightly by reducing the fighting and massively increasing the puzzling and platforming. For me, this wasn't so good. Every five minutes you will now be faced with a puzzle and, if you are not an uber puzzle fan, this can feel like it is bogging the gameplay and flow of the game down as you will have to stop and think about how to solve these puzzles every five minutes. Having said that, the boss fights are still epic and the sotry line progresses in a fun and interesting way. Gore, locales and powers are still awesome as GoW2 pushes the Playstation 2 hardware to new heights. Good game for rental. Received, played, sent back a week later.

Great sequel

A Customer from northern ireland, 11th April, 2008

If you like the first game this is a must have, great for renting as it will take about 8 hours. The graphics are perhaps the best on the ps2. I found a few parts of the first game frustrating, but not so much here, this is a really fast violent angry game that you'll be compelled to complete.
