Kratos on 18 February 2008

Great news for God of War. I is happy with review, i am definetly gonna buy this game.

http://psp.ign.com/articles/852/852821p1.html

Kratos goes on the move, but he's just as deadly as ever.
9.5Presentation
Great story, lots of unlockables and nice voice acting tie the whole package together.
10Graphics
Phenomenal achievement on the system. It's the best looking game there is, period.
9.5Sound
The audio is easily on par with the console games, and the soundtrack might be even better.
9.5Gameplay
It's not exactly original, but it's incredibly engaging and intense.
7.5Lasting Appeal
It's relatively short (it took me about 7 hours), but there's plenty of bonus stuff to go back and earn.
9.4
Outstanding		OVERALL
(out of 10 / not an average)

Wipeout Pulse got 9? Woah, that's huge.

Wipeout won't sell a lot on PSP, but it's one of the best racing game there, let alone futuristic racing game.

to me, there's only 2 franchise of racing game on PSP worth getting. Juiced.... jk

Wipeout and Burnout.
