And the second best game on the platform
God of War reviews were published late last week, bringing with them a slew of plaudits for Sony Santa Monica’s latest.

It's safe to say that critics like it. As...

Greek tragedy

Word up, son
The challenge for games like God of War is incorporating a computer controlled companion that isn’t a hindrance.

Director debunks
Earlier today, rumours suggesting that God of War may have microtransactions started to spread.
