God of War trailer has us screaming: THIS IS PSP!!!

Can this game get any more beautiful? It seemingly does every time we see it. It looks stunning in screens, but looks even more gorgeous in motion. You may think it's a PS2 game, but then when you remember it's on a handheld, you'll also be screaming, just like our obnoxious headline.

Well, it doesn't look quite as good as the PS2 games, but the fact that there's even a comparison is amazing. This looks better than any handheld game I've seen and we KNOW we're getting the crazy action GoW gameplay. Really appears to be a top notch game all around.

i wonder what the battery life will be when playing this

Probably the same as any other game that takes advantage of the 333mhz.

It's not a PS2 game YET. I wouldn't be surprised if it eventually gets ported like so many other PSP hits.

Uhm, name a few games that were ported from PSP to PS2? I must be out of the loop.

@Mikagami

Went PSP -> PS2?

Puzzlequest
GTA: Liberty City Stories
Syphon Filter: Dark Mirror

Those are three that I know offhand...there could be more. I would think that GoW:CoO would go to PS2, depending on how it sells. Problem is, GoW2 looked soooo good on PS2...a Chains of Olympus port would most certainly not measure up to that standard.

Along with the ones Aaron_k7 listed, add:
GTA Vice City Stories
Silent Hill 0rigins (not out yet but announced)
R&C Size Matters (not announced but listed by retailers)

At the end of that interview the guy pretty much says they want to port GoW to PS2 eventually.

waaaaaant. *drooling* i'm actually refraining from watching the trailers and looking at screenshots. i don't want anything ruined for me. but i know by virtue of this being a portable god of war game, that i want it, and i want it BAD.

although, i have to admit, i was a bit disappointed in god of war 2. $50 just seemed a bit overpriced for a game that did nothing to improve on its predecessor, other than adding a couple new weapons and a new level set. should've been a bit lower priced, if you ask me.

This game looks great, might even pull a few opened minded DS owners over to the light side ;) The footage though is just a rehash of what we have seen.....

GIMME NEW FOOTAGE, heck GIMME THE GAME!
