Ó

God of War: Chains of Olympus is probably one of the most anticipated video games for the PlayStation Portable. As for now, no announcements regarding the release date has been made but you've seen screens, and you've read details. Today, we've got new gameplay trailers.

Fortunately for all of us, the folks at Ready at Dawn Studios decided to give the people at Sony's Spring Gamers' Day a treat: two new God of War: Chains of Olympus previews.

Below are two videos. The first one features a sea side conflict being rudely interrupted by a cyclops and then by something with a lot more teeth. The second one shows of the many uses of a ballista.

nice video, looks cool.



important:

the psp does not have a right analog stick/nub, so i read at qj a few days ago that there won't be this "rolling-dodge" feature, but in this vid kratos does roll a few times.

Maybe the control for rolling is to hold a button and then move the analog nub ob the psp.

# 30fpsGuest 2007-05-17 03:44
the video makes the game look like it will run at 30fps rather than 60fps like the other God of Wars...oh well. nothing like overclocking to 333

# torrent demoGuest 2007-05-17 05:55
Since Sony is ignorant enough not to think they should do downloadable demos, and instead they do a damn UMD demo, i think it can somewhat benefit those with 1.5 and custom firmwares. We can download and run an ISO of the demo, and the chumps with official firmwares cant.



I'll be sure to rip it when i get it. I believe nobody's gotten their demo yet...

In the first video, when the demon broke through the door with the giant club as Kratos went to open it, I was like, "Whoa, that was pretty f'in sweet," but when the giant... whatever.. came in and ate him, I was speechless.



This game, will own.

# :(Guest 2007-05-17 07:23
Noticed the same thing.



"Eww. 30 fps?"



It looks more like 24 fps...



It just doesn't look as fluent as the console versions.

# Its FLASHGuest 2007-05-17 07:29

# whoaGuest 2007-05-17 07:31
damn. If this game turns out to be as good as I think it will, I'll actually buy it instead of just downloading the ISO. I'd encourage everyone else out there on custom fw or 1.5 to do the same. We need to support games like this and show Sony what we really want out of our PSP's.

# plain and simple...TheCheat 2007-05-17 09:08
if you didn't pay for the game, don't run the iso...its illegal...and illegal to download the iso regardless of if you own the game or not. Of course, no one seems to care about that anymore, because you're you're all cheap-os. I own all of the games I play even though I am on custom firmware...because I abide by the law. It scares me to see how many of you a-holes out there just steal property without even thinking about...ya, you'll get far in life...

Ah theres enough people trying to say that, but like you said, no one cares, so why bother? ; )

"You'll get far in life because you download ISO's." Lmao.

The case and booklet that comes with it is gonna be worth the buy alone, so definitely buy this game!

# Yes Yes...Wicked_Insider 2007-05-17 10:36
I agree! Oh and I haven't received my demo UMD yet either. I wonder how long it will take before we start to received it in the mail?

# I doubt it will be 60fpskniteowl 2007-05-17 11:39
I'd be happy if it ran smooth on 30fps really... It looks awesome and despite the processing power behind the PSP, I think that some of that visual quality is at the sacrifice of framerate. But as long as its stable and playable, it'll be good.

# um yeahGuest 2007-05-17 11:46
Yeah dude, cause you can _totally_ tell the difference between 24 and 30 fps in a video game from a youtube video...

# OVERCLOCK?Guest 2007-05-17 18:10
Will this game run at 333mhz. It was rumored on a forum that developers would be able to have this option? Was it a false rumor? If so that is pretty ghey, forget about homebrew. Sony puts a huge bottleneck on their system.

# Berries and creamGuest 2007-05-18 10:37
Yes, this is the real little lad from the infamous berries and cream starburst commercial. When I was a little lad, and I wanted berries and cream, mummy used to make me do the berries and cream dance. Now, mummy's gone. Nevertheless, I still do the berries and cream dance whenever I hear or see berries and cream starbursts. So, as a special treat on this comment, I will now do the dance for all of you! You look lovely!

"Berries and cream, berries and cream, I'm a little lad who loves berrriiieess aanndd cccrrrreeeaaamm !"
