Sony Denies God of War 2

Gamasutra reports on Sony's flat denial of a second God of War title. Likewise, they say a Gran Turismo 4 Online Edition is not likely. Indeed. From the article: "...Sony spokesperson Ryan Bowling has confirmed to Gamasutra that the reports, which place God Of War 2 on the PlayStation 2 in February 2006, and Gran Turismo 4 Online Edition in the second quarter of this year, including six-player online gameplay, are definitively not true. He did, however, note that Eurogamer's news mentioning the PSP incarnation of Killzone, Sony's first-person shooter franchise, was correct in as much as this title had been officially announced by the company."

Re:I just got God of War

I just got through the first level and killed the 3-headed Hydra. I haven't had much fun so far.

Stay with it. After the hydras is the miserable crate escort mission. After that, the game really picks up. Without giving the game away too much, I particularly like the desert sandstorm when you try to kill the sirens (you have 5.1 right?), also the first time you kill medusa. That was a hard fight. The puzzle in pandora's temple is awesome. Beyond that, the only annoying things to me were a couple timed obstacle courses and an underwater race against a spike-encrusted wall. It's one of the rare games where I went back and played it again on hard.

I liked the sex minigame. I think it's real purpose is to get you used to the button-appearing-over-their-head minigame style they use througout the game. It's a sort of practice mission. And I thought the nudity was nicely done in most cases.
