This thread has been linked to the game 'God of War'.
Having been dropped from conversation for quite some time, I thought it was about time this stuff was resurrected. Gamespot rated is highly and IGN put it down as one of the best PS2 games ever, scoring 9.8/10. It would have been nice if its release date had been kept distant from that of Devil May Cry 3 (and perhaps that's why its now been delayed until July), but if you're into that kind of game, then this could be a good year for you.
Anybody else got this game preordered? Along with Final Fantasy XII its a game I've been looking forward to for quite some time, despite the fact that I'm not usually a fan of the slash and manic `em up genre.
Thoughts?

The game's alright. A tad linear and repetitive but overall it's pretty good.
I heard it was pretty short as well.
But ... I'll still probably get it eventually.

Not according to OPS2, they were going on bout how big it is and how it needs to be stored on a dual layered dvd.

That doesn't necessarily mean it's going to last very long.
Mars bar comment - although the game seems focused on a different mythology, with Ares God of War, I always think of Mars as being the God of War, which was what made me write that.
Release date - depends where you look, but I know which release date I trust the most.
Length of game - sounded to me like it could hold its own against the Devil May Cry series, though they weren't amazingly long. I don't know what the replay value situation is, but if its a good game, there's often no harm in playing exactly the same game twice.
