Goes even further than the 2018 game.

A very good game on its own, but a masterpiece for old time fans of the franchise.

Pretty epic and fun, with impressive graphics on the PS3.

Tries too many things that they didn't have the time to do in GoW 1, which makes this game seems bloated. Is a glorified set up for GoW 3.

A game with a lot of charm, that kick-started this franchise and has aged very well.

Actually good to explain why Kratos is so deranged in GoW 2 and 3.

Could very much be a spin-off. Kratos acts like a raging child, like he does on GoW 2, and he kills a god, which is said to be unthinkable in GoW 1.

Basically a spin-off. Also has Kratos killing god-level beings, which is said to be unthinkable (for a mortal) in GoW 1.
