My brother has played this game and I can't say that I know anything about it but, it just sounds disgusting.

This game is not for anyone under 14. It is incredibly brutal with an unrealistic amount of blood. God of War also contains lots of boobies and an optional sex scene. Kratos wants to rid himself of his past sins, however he will brutally slaughter anyone/thing in his way.

A great, violent game.
I'd reccomend this for older teens and maybe mid teens if not for the sexual part. Definitly for adults and 17 year olds.

The sex part is in no way errotic, but heavy innuendo. Pretty violent. This game is tough though, I spent about an hour alone on the final boss.

A good game, I've played this game multiple times since the age of ten. Parents just might want to screen through the first part though, much like my own did when we (my brothers, little sister, and I) wanted to play. Otherwise, this puts an interesting spin on Greek mythology and offers a challenging game you want to play over and over.

Great if you're into it.
God of War is excellent. Violent, dark, and challenging... I love Kratos; he's a pretty deep character (and he's super-strong!). The puzzles and such were a challenge for me, and it is because of this game that I now enjoy tough (but not annoying) puzzles. Not to mention that I LOVE Greek mythology~ The controls in the game are simple enough (though maybe tough to pull off sometimes, such as Medusa's Gaze). Personally, I have no problem with the bloodiness and the nudity, but I realize some people might, so don't buy it if you don't like bloody games :P I played this game right before I turned 14, so I'd recommend it to any mature person who is into this sort of thing. (the game is also quite short, I beat it playing for a few hours for three days)

I just don't understand...
This game is violent but is unrealistic, so the violence is fine. A 12+ year old could play this and have fun doing so. It's not that bad. The sex scene is optional and even if you do it your'e not watching it or anything. Overall, this game is suitable for young audiences.

Depends if you mind naked people
Well, God of war is a very violent game but very easy controls and fun to play. Though after the first level in a cut scene they show two naked women only their chest uncensored.

Violent, but useful!
I loved this game, so you should buy it! This game puts in the shoes and tells you of the hardships of Kratos's life. How he was forced to do the dirty work of the gods, until he eventually kills himself.

Amazing game
Anyone who is interested in ancient greece will love this game. The violence and nudity might be a little much but it still has a good story board, great graphics, and even some awesome looking weapons. This game also gives historical facts on greek mythology. I loved this game and am thinking most people would too.

great game for an older adolescent or an adult
God of War is a good game, but to be honest it is not for kids under the age of about 14-15. The game is very bloody,gruesome and is drastically violent, the violence goes from decapitating,disemboweling all the way to beating people with their own chopped off arm!In only one part of the game, there is implied *ex between the main character and two women.It is not what you think parents and/or kids, all of this is shown off screen but you could hear **xual sounds.Parts of the game show only tops off of people nothing below the stomach, this includes men and women.This game is good as i said before but from my word and men from game stores i prefer you not to buy this for kids especially if there is younger child in the house. Parents i will warn you that this game is possibly not going to be liked by you after you witness the countless contents in this game you will have a grin on your faces!!!

this is a great fun game not for 17 or under though it has pretty good graphics for the ps2 and with kratos and mythical gods you get some good educational value with it it does have a lot of blood and nudity it is a must have david jaffe really hit it off if you have not played this game and own a playstation rent or but it NOW
