Ever wonder what all those puzzles on the Island of Rhodes site kept? Well, it was something very important, especially to Kratos and God of War fans. It's the teaser trailer for the upcoming PSP game God of War Chains of Olympus.

Ossianbg was good enough to post the video on YouTube. The teaser trailer is short and sweet at 38 seconds, leaving us wanting more (which what teasers are made for). We see some action with Kratos battling soldiers with super cool combos - plus some scenes with a couple of mean looking creatures.

God of War Chains of Olympus reportedly has a story of its own that melds with its bigger brothers' storylines. We'll probably see more updates of the PSP God of War in the coming weeks. Let's just hope they don't include any more mindbending puzzles.

Wow, I can't believe that's a PSP game. Hopefully they can nail the controls and it will be superb.

If you look at the HUD, you'll see that there aren't any magic abilities. It seems gameplay will be focused on the Blades of Chaos combat. That alone simplifies the controls A LOT.

for the guy whos bored, there is a blue bar in the hud that signifies magic energy; there will be some form of magic in the game.

NO MAGIC??
This game is going to suck!
I mean its still God of War so it wont get less than a 9.0, but still!

   Re: Crow - 2007-04-26
 » Um...

Yes, because we all play God of War for the magic attacks, not the stylized god-like ownage with the Blades of Chaos. :P

I hope this runs on OE firmwares. I really would hate to wait for the release and then have to wait for someone to hack a new firmware while the umd sits and stares at me. That happened to me when Socom came out and it was like 3 months before I could play it.

All I can say is wow. Don't get me wrong, I don't buy many UMDs, but I will sure as Hell buy God of War, Silent Hill, and Final Fantasy Core Crisis without a doubt. They all look absolutely amazing. The PSP is really going to stand out more now with these titles. I mean how many people do you know that bought a certain system for a certain game? You know someone without a PSP is at home considering buying one.

Yes, but also look at the sword, it has health, MANA, and a red bar. So there is a way to do magic. They just reworked it.

 » Leak

Isn't it about the time somebody dumps a demo disc and leaks it online? Not all of us are in the US or Canada, and thus, not all of us can get a free demo UMD. It is a free distribution of a demonstration, so I believe its perfectly legal to dump it and digitally distribute the content online.

Someone get to work gosh darnit! And rawr! One of many reasons to keep my own psp is this!

Its shipping with a second analog nub!! (jk jk) as you can see in the video, he rolls... on the PS2, the rolling was done with the right analog stick. This part of the game has had a lot of debate with the fans, so the fact that they show him rolling, ends the rumors and speculations of "how is he gonna roll without a second analog stick!?".

I can't wait to play GoW on PSP! This looks effing sweeet!

I sad, how come there's no UMD promo for Europe!! Bast*rds always screws us around.

 » Listen up fools.

How do you roll without a right analog stick you ask? It's pretty easy. Just making normal movement be controlled by the nub, and roll movement be controlled by holding R + nub. There's such a thing called button combinations you know... before controllers had 12 buttons, you could get by with 2 buttons, start, select, and a control pad. Seriously, you guys have no imagination if you think a good game developer can't work around having one analog stick. In the end, it doesn't matter the number of buttons you have, it's how you use them. Just like your *****, it doesn't matter the size, it's how you use it. You could have a 12 inch one that sits at home and does nothing but get masterbated if you suck at using it. ;)

 » look who's got a small *****

hahahah...
what's the d-pad used for on ps2? you can have analogue movement and digital roll... you don't really need 2 analogues. (though it might be nice)

   Re: kd (Unregistered) - 2007-04-26
 » i think

i think for roll it will be like a double click or push analog two times rapidly and kratos will roll for magic it will use down arrow and for rage it will use right arrow so controls which everyone will like will be
movement + analog
roll + double push to analog
box,x,triangle,o,r and l buttons will be used same as god of war ps2
