These games ran on handheld, PSP hardware yet delivered full-fledged God of War experiences. This alone should warrant a play-through from every fan.
Chains of Olympus is easily the weakest offering here. It was the first outing for the spin-off games and while it has great creativity and a pension to spectacle, it squanders most goodwill with lack of narrative consistency. The game jumps all around like it's life depended on it and makes *ss-pulls like there is no tomorrow. In most ways unfortunately, the game just feels rushed.
All right, did you just read what I wrote about Chains of Olympus? Ghost of Sparta is none of that. Not only does it eclipses it's older brother in every conceivable way, the second spin-off adventure of Kratos punches WAY above it's pay-grade and manages to stand it's ground proudly. Ready at Dawn poured their everything into this game and it shows.
