"Matt Leone and I both agree that the PSP has just experienced its first 'PS2 quality' release with God of War: Chains of Olympus. It's nearly flawless, in some ways perhaps even topping its PlayStation 2 siblings.
Almost a year ago, we interviewed Bostjan Cadez, the creator of the insanely clever Flash game Line Rider. Now, we finally have new and exclusive footage of the improved versions coming to PC, Wii, and DS. Jason Bertrand and Matt L. get in touch with their inner sled-riding-stick-figure-boy.
Finally, after a different sort of rollercoaster ride, Army of Two has a lot to live up to. Gamers everywhere are hoping for a real evolution in the coop experience. Sam Kennedy, Ryan O'Donnell and I talk about its successes and failures. Hope you enjoy the show!"
The must play PSP Games every gamer will enjoy.
Kratos has been on a rampage, killing Gods in epic battles since 2005. With each release managing to offer high-octane action, I explore each God of War title and rank every adventure from his journey to Olympus to his Norse tales of fatherhood.
I won’t rank Ragnarok just yet, although it is honestly leaving me and my wife blown away…won’t go into details right now, not done as I assume others aren’t either, maybe some of you are, idk haha.
But here’s how I rank them
5. God of War 3
4. God of War Ascension.
3. God of War 1.
2. God of War 2.
1. God of War 2018.
1. God of war 3
2. God of war 2018
3. God of war 2
4. God of war 1
Haven't played the others but about 30 hrs In to ragnarock now so safe to say if it keeps up it will end up being at the top of my list when I'm done.
I will say the pacing of the original titles and the epic feel to them I feel is way better than the new one’s. Like, I could recognize and appreciate the praise God of War received, but it bores me to tears except for the pivotal moments.
However, that being said I feel Ragnarok is waaaaay better than 2018. I’m only on Ch. 6, but it’s pretty much rocked my face off from the get-go.
I’m really split between this being my GotY or Elden Ring.
I think different games in the series had different strengths but all are great. I liked the original as it was an origin story and the mechanics were fresh. The sequel added smoother gameplay. Three was just so far ahead of it's time graphically it wasn't even funny. Plus great gameplay and bosses and insane gore and nice use of sexy time. The reboot was cool but lost a lot of what I liked about the original trilogy (I don't need my games grown up, just fun). Will wait and see with ragnarok as haven't had time to play it yet.

We can expect to see games from the original PlayStation, PS2, and PSP generations plus cloud streaming of PS3 games."
Should change that headline to: "Old School Titles We Definitely Aren't Going to Get In the New PS Plus Subscription"
Rising Zan because Pushman is the best voice acted boss in the history of gaming.
Konami RPGs---Ring of Red, Azure Dreams and Suikoden.
Thousand Arms, Ogre Battle, Tactics Ogre, Persona 1, both Persona 2 and Persona 3 from Atlus.
Any of those would make me happy. Ogre Battle and Azure Dreams the happiest.
PlayStation community before:
We don’t buy new consoles to play old games.
PlayStation community now:
Here’s a list of old games we wanna play now that we might be able to on our new consoles
but between DMC4, Patapon, and FFXII I just don't have the time.
I know I'll have to catch up on GOW at some point before the PS3 version drops because...I've never played a GOW game.
*Runs for the hills*
My excuse is that I was in the service and didn't have the chance to play games in the field.
What's gonna happen to this show now that Ziff Davis is backrupt?
Brain Intihar or what ever his name is (guy that is every week on 1up yours) is living 1UP to work for Insomniac as community manager.
I stopped playing all console games for God of War Chains. It is the best game ever made on the PSP. If you don't have it you must go out and buy it. I love this game. Dust off your PSP and get this game.
I just watch the GoW:CoO video.
