God of War: Chains of Olympus UMD-capitates March 4, '08
Kratos gets ready to break free from the Chains of Olympus on March 4, 2008 according to Gamespot. They were given the information while on a visit to developer Ready at Dawn today. The game still has no price or rating, but thank Olympus we can finally grasp a release date. Hopefully the launch of God of War: Chains of Olympus will herald the God of War III announcement.
Ready at Dawn is also aware that March is a long way off. Beyond the game's demo releasing sometime this month, which we had a chance to get some hands-on with at E3, those who already signed up for the demo on the official website will receive "a special-edition demo UMD containing a portion of a playable level as well as additional content, including a behind-the-scenes video of the game's development." Those who didn't sign up for the demo UMD can get their hands on a standard demo featuring only the level portion later this year. Although we're a little bummed that Chains of Olympus won't be out this year, at this point we take games coming out early '08 as a blessing.

I hope they're using this extra time to better utilize the 330 MHz that is available to them now. We can't just have Crisis Core as the only PSP game that has true PS2-quality graphics.

excuse my ignorance, how comes some of those screenshots look a million times better (anti-aliasing, etc)?

Question of the year:
Is this game worth getting a PSP for?
RoboChamp @ Sep 7th 2007 9:04PM
Yes and yes. With this and Crises Core, you really can't go wrong.

Perhaps,IMO Castlevania Dracula X,Megaman powered up! and Silent Hill 0 are the ones that worth buying a PSP.

^ The dude speaks the truth.

Word, all you had to say was Dracula X and Mega Man Powered Up to sell me. Stuff like God of War is just extra frosting.
muppetmeth @ Sep 7th 2007 10:59PM
And Metal Gear PO and LocoRoco and Tekken are good too...

@muppetmeth,
i don't know you, and you just may be joking, but crystal is a serious thing. as an ex-tweeker, i really hope you aren't fucking with that shit. it may all be twinkies and cupcakes now, but that shit will steal your soul. and few ever get their soul back. chances are, if you are on that shit, you'll spend the rest of your short life running with the devil ... or in prison.

Looking forward to seeing this on a big screen, thanks to the PSP-2000's new feature thingy.
