The ancient world speaks of a mortal that slayed a God. But long before his battle with Ares, Kratos sought absolution from his past sins by pledging himself as a champion to the Gods. These brutal crusades in the name of Olympus became legendary.

Strengths: Graphics, Sound, Boss Battles, Cutscenes
Weakness: Pretty short, Some frustrating puzzles, Controls sometimes awkward
This is an epic game. The production value is excellent. Great graphics, solid voice acting, perfect music, and exciting cutscenes. I like the gameplay element in God of War where you press a combination of buttons or analog stick motions to finish off giant enemies and bosses. It works well here, though the analog part can sometimes be tricky. Save points are portioned really conveniently so...
Strengths: It's God of War and any one of the series has yet to fail in game-play and storyline department including this one!
Weakness: Repeat after me, PSP analog stick sucks! Few graphical and control glitches.
Ready at Dawn studio done a fabulous job bringing God of War in portable form. First, let me talk about the controls. God of War and II required you to use both of analog sticks on your DS2 controller but PSP has only one stick. So did RaD come up with a way to compensate this? I'm gonna have to say they sure did, in a good way. Be ready to get used to its control scheme, if you want to finish...
Strengths: Fun combat system and upgrades, FMVs and voice overs
Weakness: Way too short
This is the first game I've ever played in the God of War series and so I came to it tabula rasa. Overall, I was very impressed and the experience has me wanting to try the previous games. First and foremost, I should mention that this is a game that might not be appropriate for kids. In addition to the very very liberal spraying of blood, guts, and gore, there is also a sex minigame. Nothing...
Strengths: (1) An incredible action game (2) Some of the best PSP graphics yet (3) Controls well (4) Great presentation
Weakness: (1) Loses a bit of its greatness towards the end; the story seems somewhat anticlimatic when the main vilian is revealed (2) The puzzles are not very clever
A successful new chapter prequel in the God of War series, God of War: Chains of Olympus translates its console brethen's fast-paced action and awesome presentation almost perfectly to the PSP. What impresses most is how the gameplay and control has been brought over to the PSPs slightly lacking button configuration. The action and enemies may seem familiar, but this is an entirely new story in...
Strengths: graphics, gameplay
Weakness: stiff hands
I was really looking forward to this title and it hasn’t disappointed. The graphics and background music are excellent. For the most part, the control scheme is uncomplicated (other than the dashing using both shoulder buttons/analog nub). An excellent and fun title (haven’t finished it yet). My only issue that it’s a really button masher and I can only go about 30 minutes at a time before...
Strengths: great graphics, great story and new weapons
Weakness: need another analog stick
This is one of the best games made for the PSP. From the best selling series from the PS2. This games comes to the PSP, with amazing graphics, battle and extreme bosses. This game packs a punch for its extra contents. The battle controls need a bit modification due to some movements require another extra analog stick in the PSP. But overall the game is great, sadly the game is short. But the...
Strengths: Really shows what the PSP can do. great graphics, great story, great action. G-R-E-A-T
Weakness: It's on the PSP.
CoE is a great, great game. The game looks fantastic on the PSP. Hase the classic combat and action that made God of War an excellent series. also has a great story and character in Kratos. If there's any downside, sometimes I wish I was playing with a full PS2 controller instead on the PSP with the single analog nub. But otherwise the game is fantastic.
Strengths: The BEST game for the PSP. GoW PSP is reason alone to buy a PSP.
Weakness: NONE, ZERO, NIL, NADA!
When I first heard GoW was coming out on the PSP, I immediately bought the PSP Slim 2000. In June 2008, there is a limited edition RED PSP Slim 2000 that comes with Superbad UMD and GoW PSP game. GoW on PSP is just as good if not better than the GoW on PS2. The game is totally impressive and controls are responsive. Graphics are superb. There are no flaws for this game.

The year 2008 is starting out in spectacular fashion for Sony’s PlayStation Portable. Not long ago, the company released Patapon, an engaging platformer that combined elements of strategic gameplay with roleplaying and musical-rhythm based combat. Now, on the heels of that wonderful title comes God of War: Chains of Olympus. Without a doubt, GoW: Chains of Olympus shows off the gaming...

A reason not to sell your PSP
Strengths: Classic God of War fun and quality
Weakness: Too many puzzles instead of battles, problems with recognizing rotation
This is by far the best PSP game available. I wouldn't buy a PSP just to play this game, but I would buy this game if you have a PSP. It delivers the GoW quality and experience, in a scaled-down version of the classic God of War (GoW) titles for the PS2. Even though the magic is more limited, and there are puzzles where there should probably be boss battles, the game involves the player so much,...
