God of War: Chains of Olympus Screenshots

Cory Balrog released three in-game screenshot from God of War: Chains of Olympus for the PSP. It looks like Kratos is now armed with a shield and the graphics looks stunning. Go to the source to view the screenshots.
After dishing out some gameplay-related details straight from God of War II game director Cory Balrog, we're now releasing some in-game screenshots featuring God of Badass, err, War directly from the video game's developer, Ready At Dawn (courtesy of PlayFrance).

As you can see from the game's image above, Kratos now carries a shield to make up for the loss of his dodge moves (PSP doesn't have a right analog stick for it remember?). We're also treated to a menacing screenie of a Cyclop baddie wielding a wooden club thingie (God of War has been known for its creative use of Mythological characters and weaponries). Lastly, we're given a glimpse of how sick the graphics for the PSP version will be, and as a God of War follower myself, I have to admit this is almost of PS2 quality.

Anyway, God of War: Chains of Olympus will follow Kratos' dark path right after Ares chained him with the Blades of Chaos. As a soldier of Ares, Kratos is forced to do his bidding which usually had him waging the former God of War's battles. It should also give us a better grasp of the old Spartan general's struggles under the command of Ares, as well as how he coped up with the loss of his soul (it should be remembered that he asked Ares to make him a great warrior in exchange for his soul).

God of War: Chains of Olympus should hit video games' store shelves come November. That's pretty short in video gaming timetables (provided there are no delays), so we should be able to see the Ghost of Sparta combo'ing with his Blades of Chaos inside our PSPs in no time.

    Added screenshots and approved the article. It looks pretty good. Makes me want to have a PSP. I still have the first game to finish though. I find some parts to be difficult even on normal settings...

      Nothing wrong with buying goods from ebay as long as you make sure to check the persons feedback first you won't have any issues. Anyway looks pretty good, I hadn't played the God of war games till recently, vey enjoyable experience if pretty difficult so I'll probably pick this up.

    Ain't no warranties with eBay. I don't know why people order things from there anyway.

    But yea, I can't wait for this game to drop. i can't believe that they accomplished with the graphics.

    The graphics for the game look great. Maybe I'll try and buy my friends PSP if he still has it. If not I can wait.

    Go ahead and buy it from eBay. There's a good chance they guy is ripping you off. I could care less, I'm just warning you.

    Anyways, sorry Tribulation, PSP exclusive.

    Can't wait for it to come out. Not a huge fan of God of War, but this game looks very interesting.

    For God's sake (God of War's sake in this case), keep this great series away from 360, even though I have a 360, myself. Sony needs the exclusives. I'll just use my brother's PSP for this game and any others.

    God of War's always an exclusive. And I'm guessing Killzone isin't the slickest looking game on the PSP anymore, huh?

    Speaking of God of War PSP, has anyone gotten the UMD demo yet? I ordered it about 3 weeks ago from the website, and I still haven't gotten it. What about you guys?

      Nope, i suspect that it will be available for download not an actual disc. But maybe there isnt a demo and they lied about it. Or maybe it wont come until july or something.
