Contrary to all the bad press that the European press event for Sony's God of War 2 Athens, Greece had, this video clarifies a lot of things that happened in the event.

The hype surrounding the press event focused almost exclusively on the slaughtered goat that was put on display. However, what didn't make it to the news was the fact that the goat was not necessarily the centerpiece of the event. From the pictures that we've seen, it would appear as if the dead goat was right in the middle of the hall where the event was taking place, when in truth, it was sequestered in a small room where the participants of the challenge had to "taste the sacrificial food of the gods".

Neither was it ever really given attention that the event went smoothly for the most part, and that a lot of people did in fact have fun with the games put up to spice up the occasion. Those who had the desire to "challenge the gods" had to survive certain tests, like the retrieval of the key from an aquarium with snakes. Then there was this "hand to hand combat" challenge, which was the display for their dexterity and overall athletic capabilities.

Yes, there was a dead goat somewhere in the venue. But really, everybody was just in the God of War mood, that nobody actually was iffy to the fact that a dead goat was used as a prop. Not that they didn't care, but maybe it was because the event just stayed true to the feel of the game. And in the time where God of War 2 is set, we're pretty sure goats weren't the only one slaughtered.

This story sucks? This story rocks!
