Completed : Ghost of Sparta
After the latest refreshing take on the series thought wouldn't enjoy this one as much as I used to. But it's fair to say that I didn't miss the newer one.
Also having played it multiple times earlier didn't greatly affect its replay value as was going for the platinum and spartan mode is always worth it. Only the last couple of arena encounters with keres wraiths provided a challenge in an otherwise effortless playthrough in comparison.
On to the game, Ghost of Sparta turns out to be a well balanced God of War game almost on par with its console counterparts.
The game never turns dull continuing its momentum from start to finish with what God of War is known for.
Great enemy variety,lively action set pieces and music to fill in on a journey to Kratos's past with decent (only decent to the high God of War standard) progression reproduces a godly feeling with the same smooth brutal combat.
Although, the game could have done better with its puzzles this time.
Graphically,one of the most impressive titles on the handheld it matches the console quality of its generation.
Ghost of Sparta also makes up for the limited story line of its PSP predecessor with a more personal take adding a great deal of depth to Kratos's mid and origins story of vengeance and solitude.
Yes, not as drastic or epic as of the main series but it's more than one could ask from something that acts as side game to the main series.
Not to forget, the grand boss battles which are as fun as they ever have been.
