An HD remaster of God of War: Chains of Olympus included in "God of War: Origins Collection." It features high-definition resolution, stereoscopic 3D, anti-aliased graphics locked in at 60 frames per second, DualShock 3 vibration function, and Trophies. Chains of Olympus serves as a prequel, unfolding its narrative a decade before the events in the original God of War. While retaining the familiar gameplay dynamics of its predecessors, subtle modifications enhance the overall experience. Kratos embarks on a journey through various levels, engaging in relentless combat against foes and formidable bosses, deciphering puzzles based on manipulating boxes, and participating in quick-time events. Throughout his odyssey, he amasses red orbs to fortify his weapons and abilities, secures Gorgon eyeballs to augment his health, and acquires Phoenix feathers to amplify his magical prowess. The iconic Blades of Chaos, synonymous with the God of War series, make a return, accompanied by an array of new weapons and magical spells such as the Sun Shield, Efreet spell, and Light of Dawn. The narrative unfolds as the Gods dispatch Kratos to the city of Attica, charging him with the defence against an encroaching Persian army. However, as Morpheus unleashes chaos, Kratos finds himself compelled to harness his formidable powers to once again rescue the world from impending doom. Read less

God of War Lite

This is a very short, and by comparison to the mainline entries, lightweight addition to the God of War series. It's quite easy compared to main entries, with both puzzles and enemies offering less than usual challenge. It's also quite easy to max out the magic and health bars, even if you miss a few eyes or feathers. It is …

This is a very short, and by comparison to the mainline entries, lightweight addition to the God of War series. It's quite easy compared to main entries, with both puzzles and enemies offering less than usual challenge. It's also quite easy to max out the magic and health bars, even if you miss a few eyes or feathers. It is a PSP port and you can't help but feel that it's aimed at a younger audience than normally for the franchise, even despite the violence and sexual content. It's enjoyable enough for GoW fans but probably a 3 star game for non-fans.
