God of War is an action-adventure hack-and-slash video game developed by Santa Monica Studio and published by Sony Computer Entertainment (SCE). Initially launched for the PlayStation 2, the game stands as the first instalment in the God of War series and the third in chronological order. 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.

Me lo instalé en mis PS3 (guiño guiño) y lo terminé en un par de días.
El juego me pareció en tema mecánicas bastante menos pesado de lo que me esperaba, la historia es genial (me encanta la historia griega) y Kratos es DIOS (literalmente). Ya mismo estoy bajando la secuela
To start with the review, I clarify that when I was younger I didn't give much importance to this game, I played it for one or two levels and left it. Recently I got the urge to play the new generation because I'm much more interested in the camera behind my shoulder than in a hack and slash.
I installed it on my PS3s (wink wink) and finished it in a couple of days.
I found the game much less mechanically heavy than I expected, the story is great (I love Greek history) and Kratos is GOD (literally). I'm downloading the sequel right now
