The controls are incredible intuitive, and it was within mere seconds that we were able to start pulling off combos and dodges with relative ease. Kratos' basic moves return unchanged, but there are a few new special attacks, exclusive for the PSP edition. We were surprised to see the dodge return, in spite of the second analog stick. In order to jump out of an enemy's way, pressing down on both shoulder buttons whilst using the analog nub will allow Kratos to jump away. It's surprisingly intuitive and easy to use.
It should go without saying that the game is beautiful, taking advantage of all 333MHz the system has to offer. It is everything a PS2 God of War game should be ... but on a handheld. And knowing Ready at Dawn, we knew they'd be able to pull it off.

for the rest of us who applied but aren't going to receive a hard UMD copy of the game, I beg you, Sony
Please make a downloadable version, or else you're forcing me to go OE and rip it that way.

I think that Andrew Yoon is the one who handles the PSPFanboy theatre, and he's been on the west coast covering E3. So it'll probably be a bit late this week.
On topic: I think that Daxter (and Ready At Dawn) is highly overrated, so my enthusiasm for GoW:CoO is a bit tempered. But I'm still excited about it, it looks great. Haven't heard anything bad about the game.

Of course this game is going to AWSOME. I was not a huge fan of daxter but then again it was not really my type of game, a little too cute for my taste, but GOW BABY! Look out!

the true is the dev said they developed this game based on 222mhz, now new psp firmware 3.50 will allow psp to fully use 333mhz. Imagine the extra power now the game should run really smooth with 30fps.
