God of War II

The Good
I loved everything about this game, right down to the Gorgons that you must fight through out. this game just floored me when I first played it, it not only out does the first God of War game. It also sets a new standard for video games the world over. the storyline just sucks you into your television screen, and keeps you on the edge of your seat. I loved the story, very well thought out, very well put together. And wow the music, wonderful, words can't even describe how great the soundtrack was in this game. It felt just like a movie soundtrack, and even the sound effects were very realistic and at times make you jump, when there are sudden bumps and bangs.

The Bad
I didn't like the fact that there were fewer extra's in this installment of God of war. I liked all the extra story elements of the first God of War. But in this installment, there just are not as many extras to choose from. But other than that, a wonderful game a game that you must buy and try out if you haven't already.

The Bottom Line
I would describe this game as an epic, pure and simple and epic. It's great, even my grandmother enjoyed this game, however she didn't play it, she just loved watching it. Because it's so entertaining and immersive.

The Good
God of War II continues its successful predecessor with a deep-less story, out of focus in Kratos himself's drama and focused on Kratos' revolution fighting the Gods. There is a really obvious improvement in other aspects of the game like graphics, FX, music and gameplay. God of War II reinvents the classic Beat 'em up genre which was a little dead and resurrects it as a new genre who influenced many other games of the same genre. Graphics are better, but just because the stages are majestic, everything is really, really big (maybe some Shadow of the colossus influence here), colossal than the previous game. There are new combos and movements are more dynamic. Everything's well harmonized with the music composed by Marino, Fish, Reagan and Velasco.

The game has evolved on its own concept, now the battles are more epic, moving away from the (sometimes) redundant minor battles which God of War I had, making it a special game for the player. Big bosses are all over the game, with less small battles and more epic battles. The replayability is now better with new unlockable mods once you've finished the main game.

The Bad
The player will miss some new enemies because they're (most of them) the same as before. Also, maybe because it's really funny, the game is short beside the new mods included. Many players will be a little bit disappointed when they try the game and notice that there are not many new movements for Kratos, not many new combos and nothing characteristic on this matter.

The Bottom Line
God Of War II is one of the best Beat 'em up games of this generation of platforms. Everything is apocalyptic and it will make any player who loves this kind of games to play it again just when he finishes it.

The Good
bom estilo de lutas, altos combos, histórias super interessantes e bons gráficos.

The Bad
