    God of War 2 is a typical sequel. Yes, the game has become larger, and the gameplay has become more pleasant. The mechanics of the battle became diverse, the graphics became slightly better, although on the PS3 the difference with the first part is minimal.

Yes, the game has become larger, and the gameplay has become more pleasant. The mechanics of the battle became diverse, the graphics became slightly better, although on the PS3 the difference with the first part is minimal. But all the shortcomings of the first part passed here. In some moments, the metrical camera is simply terrible, it is incomplete why there is no way to turn on subtitles. The game has been translated into my native Russian completely, but why can't I include voice acting in English? And despite the fact that everyone liked 2 part more, I was very impressed when GOW 1 was held. The ending also disappointed, she just breaks. It is clear that GOW 3 begins exactly from this place, but there was a break between the games for 3 years. You can't do that.… Expand

    Take this review with a grain of salt, as I have never been a fan of the original God of War games. It combined two game mechanics that I despise the most: Button mashing and quick time events. That is why it took me so long to return to the series, God of War II, which is often regarded as the best God of War game from the old trilogy. It is definitely a good production.

It combined two game mechanics that I despise the most: Button mashing and quick time events. That is why it took me so long to return to the series, God of War II, which is often regarded as the best God of War game from the old trilogy. It is definitely a good production. Graphics, sound, cutscenes all push the PS2 to its limits so if I were a game critic, maybe I would have rated this higher.

    Core game is still the same and I do not like it. I still hate button mashing; I still hate quick time events and God of War II has a lot of those. It is also as much a puzzle and platforming game as it is an action, so expect plenty of puzzle solving and precise platforming. So yes, it is an epic journey with some good boss fights and a great story, but it’s just not for me.    … Expand
