When Does God of War Go Too Far? When Someone Laughs

It’s not sex, either, as God of War III continues the series’ naughty mini-game tradition. It’s the laughs. “If we start laughing,” God of War III director Stig Asmussen…

Why We Play Games, And Why We Grumble About Them

Kratos Could Have Been A Little Elf (Or A Blind Wizard)

The journey a game, and its characters, take from concept to console is usually an interesting one, but in God of War’s case, it seems particularly so. Especially for its leading man, Kratos. Ken Feldman, lead artist on the original God of War game, has told Official PlayStation magazine that while designing the star of…

The God Of Casemods Rages At His Legless Future

Having so far been released only in the United States, the God of War Collection will finally be released in PAL territories in 2010. Only, there’s a catch. See, in the US, it was released in convenient, standalone form. But the only way PAL customers will be able to get their hands on a copy…

God Of War Figure Goes Tiny, Lets Itself Go

Toy company NECA have already released some God of War figures, yeah, but those are mean, and they’re pointy. We like this one better, because it’s cute, and cuddly.
