God of War: Chains of Olympus (PSP) – Review (Update)
Posted by Damon on March 18, 2008
UPDATE: Seems I finished God of War: Chains of Olympus and the game clocks in at a completely less than average 6 hours and 18 minutes plus the time it takes to fight the final boss. This being said I am altering the Final Verdict of 5/5 to 4.25/5, which is still tremendously good.
Now let me explain why a 4.25 and not a 4.5 or even a 4.75 out of 5. The game is amazing, as i explained in the earlier review, but one very bad thing happened: I was totally immersed in the game and having a tremendously excellent time playing while wanting more and more and more, unlike any PSP game before, and then BOOM, the game was over. So not cool, I knocked off a whole point because they did such an excellent job on the game but made the game very short and left players wanting more. Now I know a UMD disc has size restrictions limiting how long a game can be or how gorgeous or what not, but heres a novel and completely original PSP concept: USE TWO DISCS! I mean hell, they cost like $50 to produce if even that, ship a game with more than one disc to the game, they do it with other console games, why not the PSP?
Think about it, GoW:CoO clocking in at like 15 or 20 hours, it’s the very makings of a gamegasm. Now don’t get me wrong, the game is very well worth the $40 price tag and you will definately enjoy the game like I did so I still highly suggest God of War: Chains of Olympus to anyone who owns a PSP. I just wish the game was longer …

(Updated) Final Verdict: 4/5
