I wish they would have just waited and learned the Cell + GPU processing development tools better and brought this to the PS3. That would be so awsome!!!
Oh Wait but no Rumble, That Sucks nevermind.
The last Sony game or the last game? Seems kinda early to be bailing on the PS2, either way. didn't Sony say they'd support it until 2011 or something?
I need to buy a new copy of GoW and beat it, since my brother scratched my old one to hell and back, and I haven't had the chance to even beat it yet.
I'm looking forward to the second game.
Whoops I misread. Last great game. Sigh.
yes, I'm sure there will be more games for the PS2. But I don't expect anymore epic games. It just doesn't make sense, not unless it was some sort of port.
Hmmm, I wonder if developers will try to port for Wii to PS2? Would that be possible or easier than Wii to PS3 or Xbox 360?
Yea, that made me want to re-buy a PS2.
That trailer is INTENSE.
OBVIOUSLY you have forgotten Earache Extreme Metal Racing. Oh and another Harry Potter game.
"Hmmm, I wonder if developers will try to port for Wii to PS2? Would that be possible or easier than Wii to PS3 or Xbox 360?"
I was at Kmart the other day and say Rayman Raving Rabids for ps2. I thought I was trippin.
Yeah, if you really want to fuel your PS2 in the next few years, you'll have to survive on the ineviteble releases of a jillion Disney and Spongebob games.
I AM WHAT THE GODS HAVE MADE ME
Brilliant, I can't wait. Truly an epic.
The PS2 is sure having a good round up in it's twilght years , that's what I call growing old gracefully.
Hopefully this one will actually be better than Ninja Gaiden. A game that really deserved more attention.
You want epic Crecente? Guitar Hero 80's Edition is coming to the PS2!! :D
The best games always come out at the end of the console life cycle. Everyone should know that already!
There are few games I can genuinely get excited about...this is one of them. Brilliant.
I wonder...will it look as good on a PS3 as a PS2?
Trailer sucks. I mean, the game itself looks fanfuckingtastic, but the trailer felt kind of lame. Kind of shame that it's games like these that leave me uncompelled to get a PS3 and leave me sticking to my PS2.
That fat medusa is seriously not cool.
Why would anyone make a game for ps2? Lets see there are like 120 million ps2s and a little over a million ps3s, 10 million 360s, and 4 million wiis. It's not completely stupid to make something for ps2 unless it's a triple A title and your starting development now.
Not making this a PS3 exclusive may have been Sony's biggest blunder in this war. I loved God of War so much that I may have purchased a PS3 just for this game. Oh well, now I dont have to.
I'm happy this game isn't coming to the PS3. If it came to the PS3, I'd have to shell out for one for it's limited selection of games. Honestly, there is no reason to purchase a PS3 with the lack of variety that's currently available for the console.
Hi Brian C - Rayman was so obviously ported from Wii to PS2 and analogue tacked on. im sure it was made for Wii!
Drool :P~~~~~~~
great, now i need to buy a new keyboard, all drool has made typing this comment difficult. that game is going to kill, and if they make a third one on ps3, it will be beyond believable.
You know games are mainstream when they start using that particular voice-over guy.
Come to that, if they could just lengthen that clip for another 80 minutes or so, it would be a pretty awesome movie.
I rented this game for the first time a few days ago. It was ok, but the camera was annoying.
Shadow of the Colossus is way better. I feel like I control the character on giants, not hit the sequence in correct order to pull off big moves..
Lame.
You're absolutely right on Sony making a mistake by not making this PS3-exclusive.
However, I think Nintendo made a similar mistake with Zelda.
Don't get me wrong, Twilight Princess is incredible (I'm playing through it right now). But having secured the Gamecube version, I'm a little surprised to find that the Wii completely lacks appeal for me now.
I was really pumped for the Wii, initially. But what would I play for it now? Maybe when Mario comes out, I'll feel the urge again.
@ esrid
I played GC TP and switched to Wii after the water dungen. I'm all jacked up with the mirroring and I can honestly say the GC version controls better.
All that being said im going to stick with the Wii version.
I cant wait for GOW2!
oh man oh man oh man, I really wish that this was somehow going to come out for 360 (pipe dream i kno) i played the 1st on my roomates PS2 and it was one of the best games I've ever played. The 2nd only looks better. Some sweet armor this time around too. I just wonder if they make him give up god status, otherwise its gonna be really hard to die...just sayin
Very cool, and that split second where he was smashy smashy with the mallet reminded me of the South Park / WoW parody ...
looks awesome...haven't played the first one yet tho...and I am glad its on ps2
I was shocked when I herd GOW was coming out o the ps2 then the ps3. In some of the content you can unlock they talk about the 2nd GOW and how they are thinking next gen because of the new things they would like to try.
PS. Does anyone every get GOW "God of War" & GOW "Gears of War" mixed up everytime you read a head line?
I think I can safely assume this will kick ass, so if Crystal Dynamics get Tomb Raider: Anniversary Edition right as well then the PS2 should be getting a fine end.
I love it when, after watching a good trailer for a game I'm excited about, all I muster up is a gleeful, "Heeeheeheehee!"
I'm glad I didn't get rid of my PS2. It will be the first time I've drug it out in over a year. I actually am damn eager to play this game. Honestly, I think it looks better than the current PS3 offerings. What's with that?
"The End Begins" so that you can "Finish the Fight" in GoW3
I'm glad I haven't gotten rid of my PS2. This game will definitely bring it out of retirement after a year long hiatus. Is it me or does this look quite a bit more impressive than any of the current PS3 offerings? Why is that?
This is off topic, but, it seems to me since new systems are always littered with last-gen ports anyway, how come they haven't made PS3 ports of some of the more "epic" PS2 games yet? A next-gen version of Shadow of the Colossus would definitely help sell PS3s, I'd think. Ditto for GoW. These are first (or second) party games, Sony. The ball is in your court.
I look forward to GOW 2... I'm also looking forward to GOW 3 for the PS3 in a few years...
This game is gonna kick ass, plus since i only play on PS3 no jaggies.
That looks a hundred times more exciting than anything coming to the PS3 any time soon.
That seals it. I'm buying a PS2.
Can it do VGA out? Has anyone tried it on a PC monitor?
Me like big fuckin hammer!!!!!
@ FullFlava yes you can, here is an adapter for PS2 VGA($33)

Yeah yeah. Meh.
You just know this game is going to have a Halo 2 ending.
im glad they left david jaffe alone and let him develop this game on whatever console he wanted instead of forcing a badly made ps3 exclusive...god of war3 and shadow of the colossus 2 will be ps3 exclusives anyway.
