God of War TV spot is most epic PSP ad ever

It makes sense that God of War would warrant such an epic ad. This is easily the biggest release on PSP to date, and SCEA is doing it justice with a pretty awesome looking TV spot. Narrated by Linda Hunt, this ad should do a good job of targeting the fans of God of War on PS2. We hear they come in the millions. We can't wait to see what the sales charts for PSP look like at the end of the month. Will gamers make the plunge? Or, will they wait for the incredibly sexy PSP bundle, due this summer?

That IS pretty badass, but I'm still not buying it. 0.0
I'll let my friends buy it, then after five hours they will have beaten it and i can beat it in the same day. yay.

i think thats what im going to end up doing too. not because im not a huge God of War fan but because Brawl is coming out on Sunday and i only have enough extra cash for one game right now (damn college expenses).
i also have a HUGE problem with buying short games that have little replay value. it just seems like a waste of money in the long run. so buying this now vs Brawl would be like me paying $40 to watch an extended Lord of the Rings movie (and im saying that because of length and not comparing epicness. remember Kratos crawled out of hell 3 times. badass.)

This is an awesome ad. I actually saw it on Comedy Central about an hour ago, alongside some 'Gamer Idol' or something clip. (Sponsored by Sony OFC, sadly it wasn't too good)
I'll definitely be getting this. I just can't miss out on a GoW game.

Funny, I read a blog post online not too long ago complaining about there not being any TV advertising for this game... guess some people just need a little patience.

LOL yeahp! That's the one.
She does the VO's for all the God of Wars, and she was also Gaia (I think?) in GoW2 - or whatever the Earth God woman person was called.
They had good interviews in the bonus disc of GoW2 =P Should go check that out Macha888 lol.
