released on Nov 17, 2009

A remaster of God of War

A remaster of God of War, an action-adventure hack-and-slash video game developed by Santa Monica Studio and published by Sony Computer Entertainment (SCE). Loosely inspired by Greek mythology, it unfolds in ancient Greece with vengeance as its central theme. The player takes on the role of Kratos, the protagonist, a Spartan warrior devoted to the Olympian gods. Tasked by the goddess Athena, Kratos is assigned to eliminate Ares, the God of War and Kratos' former mentor. Ares had deceitfully manipulated Kratos into killing his wife and daughter. As Ares attacks Athens fueled by hatred for Athena, Kratos embarks on a quest to locate Pandora's Box, the sole object capable of permanently stopping the vengeful god. The remaster features full HD resolution complete with 2X anti-aliased graphics running at 60 frames per second.

this was such a revelation.
i havent really touched this franchise at all until now, only having played god of war 3 at a friends house years ago and remembering basially nothing about it except that the boss fights were HUUUUGE.
and i really dont regret looking into it
god of war 1 has an absolutely amazing world design, the different parts of the world we explore here feel alive (as much as it can be while people are dying all over the place), feel different from each other. they even look spectacular still to this day in some shots. the entrance to the architects tomb for example really blew me off in some way, the whole poseidon challenge, the ship right at the beginning of the game. i really, really liked how these felt. how many different platform ideas were put into it, how from hack and slash to puzzling everything felt just right and the right amount of hard and easy.
i enjoyed this game a lot. i still think its really enjoyable and lacks nothing too important.
some jumps can be a bit tricky but other than that i had absolutely zero problems and found the gameplay loop and different upgrades you get just enough to make it not too boring.

Became Kratos myself because of some lategame sequenzes.

But otherwise it's still a very competent and focused action-brawler with decent combo-game wich doesnt waste time before it lets you into the action. A good, ramping soundtrack adds to the atmosphere and the plot is a neat start for the bigger picture that is coming in the next 2 titles.

Missed out on this series when it was on PS2, so played through in preparation for God of War 3 and really enjoyed this one.

Ué aqui no site não tem a versão de PS2? kkkkkkkk

Sem dúvida o início da minha franquia favorita, me lembro de ficar maravilhado já na parte do barco com a luta da hydra, sem falar o momento que ele rouba a chave do pescoço do marinheiro e deixa ele cair na garganta dela BAITA DE UM PAU NO CU KKKKKKKKKK.

As várias lutas com o chefes, os cenários hora tranquilos e hora sombrios e a extrema ganância do Kratos em busca de poder, e consequentemente o que isso custou pra ele, e pra fechar aquele final épico contra o Ares, quem diria que a espada que era uma ponte até então se tornaria a arma para matar o lazarento, surreal!

Primer god of war que jugué, increible historia.
