God Of War Demo Review (With screenshots!)

10/10 hands down. If you don't have it yet, download it here

Now, besides that it is classic GoW--which is why the game is badass-- the game gives a very nice player experience. I found myself saying "oh shit" throughout the 10ish minute demo. The GFX are the best i've seen on the PSP. Perhaps we finally have a good PSP game!

Now, what everyone loves, pictures.

The good about game

* Outstanding technical and artistic visuals
* Combat is intense and gory
* Soundtrack fits the game perfectly.

The bad about game

* Very, very little in the way of new gameplay elements
* Can easily be beaten in less than seven hours
* Could have used more puzzles, platforming segments, and bosses.

Brief Review

God of War: Chains of Olympus' story takes place before the first God of War game on the PlayStation 2, which is a little confusing because you find yourself trying to remember just what had and hadn't happened in Kratos' twisted life at the time of the first game. At this particular point in the God of War timeline, Kratos is a general whose sole purpose is to serve the gods of Olympus. During the course of Chains of Olympus, the gods' orders create a certain moral dilemma for Kratos, and he finds himself faced with the decision of whether or not to do the bidding of his gods or do what is best for him. The story doesn't play a prominent role here, but this is God of War, so all you really need to know is why Kratos is pissed off so you can go off and slaughter mythical creatures with reckless abandon.
