For his Monthly Musing, The Silent Protagonist discusses his annoyance that God of War: Ghost of Sparta was so beloved by so many people. Agree? Disagree?
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.
It feels like the PlayStation Portable doesn't get the love that it deserves, so here are the best PSP games if you're picking one up for the first time.
some really good games on that list. some of my favorites (not on the list) are Metal Slug XX, ultimate Ghosts & Goblins, Gradius Collection, Motorstorm Arctic Edge and Ratchet & Clank: Size Matters.
I get that The Warriors is technically a PS2 game ported over, but damn it's amazing on the PSP
Few of my favs Off the top. Midnight club 3,GTA Stories liberty/Vice,god of war and locoRoco
Peace Walker should have won it
There 2 very differnt games. ive played both. but visually this game did stand out from all. it really blew me away that after all these years they actually show a game with graphics like that.
MG. was a good game it had all the bits that made mg. i dont always go for these GOTY things as teres alot of games that each are good but very differnt.
I personally loved Ghost of Sparta. Really really great game. IMO it was better than GOW3 in many ways.
Game of the year is so subjective it's silly to argue about. In reality there are many many games that are deserving of this title and picking just one is like picking water or air.
Plus tastes vary so much, ask my six year old and the game of the year was eyepet, lol. Simpley put, if you don't like their pick, then pick your own and get over it!
it was average year for me personally
bayonetta
darksiders
god of war 3
3 d dot
yakuza 3
splinter cell
red dead
modnation
new vegas(i got this in 2011)
after that for me it was gt5
but 2011 looks to change that but to many others 2010 was also a great year so i think it comes down to taste
Peace Walker is a much more complete game with great multiplayer functions and alot of replayability.
I think even KH: Birth by Sleep was a superior game than GOW : Ghost of Sparta. Its not that GOW doesnt deserve it but its simply not fair when 2010 was probably PSP1´s best year.
