Kratos has to escape his torment by entering a dungeon, getting a super strong weapon, and killing a god. Except that he gets betrayed. Who could have seen that coming.

Now, did I just describe God of War 1 or God of War 2?

Yeah, this series is beyond stale even with the second entry. I really wanted to get into the series, but I guess I'll stop here.
Nobody should ever play this game. Start and drop the series at GoW 1.
