Meh, God of War is God of War now. The first took the story in a decent direction- it was tight and well delivered. 2 just made me think they don't give a damn about it anymore. I guess any future installments will adopt a 'less is more' approach and just pile stuff on. He'll still have the Blades of Chaos and be the same angry guy in each, so whether Kratos is fighting the gods or generic ogre type monsters in future GoW games, it will all be the same thing.
