Wow. I just finished God of War 2. What a fantastic game. There are a few annoying bits near the end of the game, but all in all it is one of the best gaming experiences I've had in quite some time.
I'm not usually happy when I am able to finish a game in a week, especially if I paid full price for it, but that said, this was worth it. Plus I can go back and play through it again at a harder difficulty to unlock more goodies, so it's cool.
The only downside to finishing it is that it sets up perfectly for God of War 3, which will inevitably be on the PS3. Sigh. Of course, GoW3 won't be out anytime soon, so I'm in no rush.

ZEUUUUUUUS!
You have to see this.
It's a bunch of LARPers (Live Action Role Players, for those of you not nearly as nerdy as me) who are dressed up as characters from the God of War games. The site is set up so you can do little Mortal Kombat-style battles between characters. It's pretty funny and extremely nerdy.
The interviews are pretty priceless, especially Chubby Kratos. He likes violence, but doesn't want to hurt anybody. Hee hee.

Tune In For Spartan Week!
What a week to be a shirtless warrior of ancient Greece.
First we had 300 hit on Friday (and in case my last post wasn't clear on the subject, it's 18 kinds of awesome!) and today I got my hands on my copy of God Of War 2! Woo!
The release of GoW2 is kind of bittersweet though. It's great that it's out and I'm sure it'll be at least as amazing as the first one, if not moreso.
The sad fact of the matter is that God Of War 2 is essentially the last major release to hit the PS2. Now, the system HAS been around for 7 years now and it has a fantastic library of games, so it's not like the PS2 is going the way of the Dreamcast and disappearing years before it should. That said, the PS2 was the first console that I had ever picked up on launch day and it was basically the system that got me back into console gaming in a hardcore fashion.
Hmm... maybe I shouldn't be sad that it's seeing its final game. I'm afraid to think about how much money and time I've poured into it (and the other consoles I've picked up since)... yeeps!
Ah well. I'm counting down the hours to Garrett going to bed. Once he goes to bed, the TV is all mine and I'll be slicing up harpies and destroying the Colossus of Rhodes like nobody's business!

TONIGHT WE DINE AT MCDONALDS, er, IN HELL!!!
Go see 300.
Go see 300 NOW!
Oh my, that movie was awesome and I already knew how it ended.
Just know that you'll walk out of the theatre 38 times more manly than you were walking in.
And you'll have a strange urge to poke things with sticks for a few days.
