God of War: Origins Collection

With God of War: Origins Collection Sony has taken the two portable games in the series (God of War: Chains of Olympus & God of War: Ghost of Sparta) and collected them on one action-packed Blu-Ray disc boosted by HD graphics and 3D support.

I feel as though the God of War: Origins Collection should be retitled God of War: Family Ties because you get to learn more about Kratos’ family and past here than in any other game from the series.

The gameplay in all God of War games is sublime, and there is no difference here. The capable folks at Ready At Dawn (they also developed the fantastic PSP game Daxter) have shown plenty of respect for Sony Santa Monica’s cash-cow. They know what they’re doing, and you’ll love it despite still completing various quick-time finishers and collecting gorgon eyes and phoenix feathers.

Chains of Olympus looks much better and is similar to the HD version of God of War II. The game was released last year and it shows just how far Ready At Dawn has come with the power of the PSP. In this case I expect you came here for the story and gameplay, not the graphics.

Developer: Ready At Dawn Studios / Publisher: Sony Computer Entertainment / ESRB: Mature [Blood and Gore, Intense Violence, Nudity, Sexual Content] / Played on: PlayStation 3 / Price: $39.99
