Conquered Mount Olympus ... yet again ...

My Vengence has Ended!

This experience has certainly confused me with the minor difference between cinematic cut-scene times and gameplay. One moment you're watching a very enormous movement of a Titan's hand. Then you spotted a speck of dust moving to our controller's movement and realized it's Kratos. As the camera zooms in, your enemies appear and the game breaks into the normal gameplay. The transitions are great. Giving you the sense of Epicness on a larger scale. As usual the real-time action scenes are so darn exciting. Krato practically flew everywhere and could do almost anything to anyone, Gods or Titans. It doesn't fking matters to a very angry blog of rageball called Kratos. He just blast through all of them.

Near the end sequence, there is a part of the experience which reminds me much of Max Payne. Been a while since games tried this approach. Certainly enables the storytellers to express themselvesin another form that touches our inner feelings.

This is my 2nd AAA game this year, after Bioshock 2. A good year for PS3 indeed.

I've become the God of War

4 years after its release, I've finally completed this game thanks to the release of God of War Collection on PS3.

Even at this age, this 4 years old game still has its appeal and the tuned up graphics certainly lessen the impact of aged pixels. The intensity and rage was still burning good and should be played by every self-respected gamer. It's not an easy game and the satisfaction gained from plunging the Sword of Artemis into Ares is well earned.

I tried the God of War 3 Demo after and was wowed by the great leap to HDMI format for the game. It almost was like watching a movie. Cannot wait for the game to be released in March 2010.
