God of War II = Brilliant! That's it, thanks for reading.... I only jest.
It's
not often that a sequel is better than it's predecessor, with the
exception of the Final Fantasy games. God of War II takes you on a
journey of betrayal, hate, and ultimately revenge, as the determination
of Kratos takes him back to Mount Olympus.
I must say, though,
that GOW II is far more difficult than the one before it. Especially
towards the end. But overall it was a brilliant game with alot of
memorable moments.
The controls are what you would expect from
the first God of War, primarily because Cory Barlog, the games director
whom have been along side David Jaffe in creating the first game, with
a few minor tweaks in gameplay with climbing on the ceiling, and new
abilities and weapons such as Typhons Bane which is a wind bow. So if
you've played the first God of War you'll know exactly how the gameplay
mechanics plays out.
As mentioned before, without giving
anything away for those of you who haven't played God of War II, the
story is about the betrayal of Zeus, the god of thunder, and the hate
for the gods that allowed the nightmares of the past to haunt Kratos
and what he's done.
I know that I'm late in the game, but I
don't care. I highly recommend God War II especially now that it's $20.
I can't for the next game in the GOW series.
