  1. God of War (PS2)

    Reviewer: EL33TONLINE

    There’s nothing better than a good dose of Greek Mythology every now and then when it comes to games. Unfortunately, not may games set in this genre capture the true spirit and depth of the stories told about this era. God of War is the pinnacle in accuracy and has really been well thought out far before hitting the game’s development. Read more

    God of War introduced a game that was just so unbelievably remarkable. This title garnered countless awards in 2005 and is considered my many to be the greatest game on the PlayStation 2. If you looked up the word action in the dictionary, then you should see a picture of the game God of War. The storyline transpires around the merciless protagonist Kratos. One of the best introductions to a video game begins with Kratos striving to commit suicide by walking right off a... Read more

    stars a fictional Greek warrior named Kratos. Kratos is attempting to repent for his past sins under the service of the Greek god of war, Ares (known as Mars to those more in tune with the Roman gods). After an event in Kratos' past, which is explained in the story, he turned his back on Ares, and instead turned to Ares' sister, Athena. For 10 years Kratos has done Athena's bidding, hoping to atone for his sins. Read more

    The action genre has been getting stale lately. Many of the big names have returned with sequels, but each one seems to disappoint more than it pleases. Thankfully, Read more

    If you're looking for an action-packed PS2 game, I recommend this. It's still outstanding, even if you're used to the PS3's library. God of War is fast and packed full of testosterone, but underneath all that is the most exciting game I've played for a while. It's going cheap, too. Read more

    It's payback time! Sick of serving the gods Kratos decides he's had enough. Bigger and more AMAZING than the first, this is by far one of the best games available for the PS2. Read more

    Excellent game, varied battles keep you on your toes and make sure that it stays interesting all the way to the end. I don't normally play this type of game, but it had me hooked right from the start. Definitely one to rent though, it's a pretty short game. Read more
