I better get my sleep and stock up on Red Bull and Pixie Stix.
I beat the first God of War in one sitting and will try to do the same with this one.

I still haven't beaten the first GoW. :( But I hope the second one has some cool mythological monsters to face off against (Scylla or Kraken anyone?). The first one is kind of lackluster in terms of bestiary.
And I could do without the boobies everywhere. If they're going to show boobies, show Kratos' wang.

nah no need for the kratos wang. boobs are prevalant (sp?) in greek culture so i say keep them in, same capacity as before. dont over kill it, ill buy this just to kill like in the first game. Story is the main thing here, it must be good and have an epic feel otherwise it will be a let down.
Im ready for this game, been waiting to hear anything sence the creator said he was intrested in doing one more before the next gen jump.

God of War, while an excellent game, doesn't have the timelessness that Ocarina of Time has.

Nice conservative middle american comment there. Dont mind the loads of violence and gore but heaven for fend there be what? Half of dozen juggs at the most?
At any rate, I just hope it is as entertaining story wise and such as this. I mean hell they already knocked out greek mythologies bigger things, pandoras box and gave away his background.
Personally Id like to see kratos try and kill the other gods and a new human rises to try and stop kratos instead of just retreading old ground.

No, I just think that if guys are going to be able to drool over pixellated la la's that girls/gays should be able to drool over pixellated manjanglies. I mean, not even the minotaurs or satyrs had any junk, yet there were the Sirens, bare-breasted and all.
Anywho, I would LOVE to be able to fight the Greek Gods. But it makes me think of Xena so much (the one where during the Twilight of the Gods where she killed a bunch of 'em). I could just imagine Kratos killing Ares, Poseidon, Hephaestus, etc, while forcing Aphrodite to be his "bride."
I'm still crossing my fingers for some Kraken action. The Hydra battle at sea left me wanting more. :X

Oh yeah, everyone was going crazy over those medusa breasts:rolleyes:. Okay, so those two chick on the boat were topless, but hey.....so was Kratos. Now when some chick's walking around with no pants, we can talk
Now shed your "it's not fair" tears in another thread

#1: Only about three sets of tits on that game were worth staring at.
#2: They actually wanted to make the Cyclopses and Minotaurs anatomically correct, but IIRC, they had trouble getting it right. In the extras menu, they even have a model of one of their attempts to pull it off.

Yeah, that room with all the unused character models. I remembered it being there but couldn't remember why they didn't use it.
Wonder if they'll be able to give Kratos the costume they originally wanted to use this time?

Male nudity was pretty common among the Greeks.
That's how they competed in the Olympics to make sure there weren't any secret female competitors.
Still I don't feel much need to see pixellated wangs though. Boobies however, are always nice,

I rented the first one but got stuck in that underwater part where you have to dodge the big honking walls coming at you.

Here's the Gamespot article for it:
PS2 God of War 2 confirmed
New issue of Game Informer confirms rumors that Kratos will return to Sony's current-generation console.
Last month, rumors spread that God of War was getting a sequel. The source of the scuttlebutt was a report on Eurogamer.net, which cited leaked Sony Computer Entertainment Europe marketing materials that revealed the untitled follow-up to the now-budget-priced actioner would be released in the US next February.
However, the marketing materials allegedly said that, like God of War, its sequel would be released for the PlayStation 2. Though the first game's current-generation graphics wowed critics, the Eurogamer.net report dashed hopes that the series might debut on the PlayStation 3, which sports a much beefier GPU.
When the article--which was removed under legal threat from SCEE--broke, Sony Computer Entertainment America reps dismissed it as "rumor and speculation." However, this week, anyone who has seen a copy of Game Informer magazine now knows that God of War 2 is indeed in the works. On its cover, the new issue of the Minnesota-based monthly proclaims that "Kratos returns to the PlayStation 2."
Since its release in March 2005, God of War has received many awards, including top honors at the 2006 Interactive Achievement Awards and GameSpot's PlayStation 2 Game of the Year prize.

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!! i loved the first game and am so going to buy the second(when it comes out and stuff) i loved the fighting and the beasts were even cooler. i think that this game was one of the only games that i loved entierly, the cut scenes were awsome and the power of the gods(not rage of the gods) were also freakin cool, I NEED TO GET THIS GAME :mad:

My personaly guess is: THis is mro eof a Prequel than sequel.
Kratos was the God's errand boy for a while, this could have been a earlier adventure.
(Or by some plot device, not exploiting God of War powers.)
And really as a American I will say this:
It is damn rdicluous about the "Breasts!" thing.
I mean really, the Oracle, and those women on the boat, that's it. Cause the harpies and medusa breasts, are censore dsome.
And please.. I would rather find horror in my future childrne to enjoy horrible graphic violence, then seeing how a female body looks like. (in some ways.)
That's just me though.. (And what shock. I am from the SOuth East, and not a Bible Thumping ignorant hick.)

No, it's a sequel. Picks up right where the original left off. I got scans of the preview if you want 'em

Bah....the links I had went to ****. Basically, the other gods are offended that a mortal is now one of them, plot against him and manage to strip him of his powers
But you do start off with all your powers though.

Yep. But of course, you can't get too close, or it, well, crushes you. Try long-range swings from the air. It takes a while, but eventually it breaks, and the conveyer belt stops.

Yeah, I picke dup the issue of Game Informer, and basically, Kratos is stripped of his God-hood, and now he is taking revenge on every God, and the Fates. It suppose to be awsome, because they have pretty much the same people who created the first one create this one. In this one, you have all of your weapons and powers, and you can create awsome combos, like combining Sword of Chaos and the Swords of Athena (I think that is what it is called....) and you can switch between them with a button. And now, you don't have to stop to cast a spell, you can still go on and fight while casting it... which seems awsome.
Too bad that game isn't coming out 'till 2007.

I have been hungering for some violence.
So when GOW2 comes, I'll do my damnest to buy it.

know whats kinda cool? in the first game in the special features the creator said that he wanted kratos to get a pair of wings as one of the power of the gods and that it was turned down. now from one of the newer trailers you can clearly see kratos with wings during a long jump that he makes. thought that was pretty interesting

There's a bunch of demo movies on YouTube, too, if anyone's interested. One of them shows Euryale, who is apparently a boss monster in the game.

It is for ps2 only.
And Im not very excited. I loved the first GOW but the one man who made it what it was david jaffe isnt going to direct it. He might have something to do with it but someone else is taking control over it.
Would be like a metal gear game without hideo kojima directing it.

GOW2 will be a cool game I think.
