God of War 2: Devine Retribution (PS2)

Exactly...I just feel that there is so much Kratos could do that fighting Zeus right away would kind of be a waste.

I would like to see Kratos partake in a war between the Gods and the Titans also..
BTW I think that if Kratos' brother gets involved, he might also use teh 3 Furies to help get his revenge...isn't one of their main reasons of revenge against those who are responsible for the death of their own family members?


That'd interesting. Have Kratos' brother escape Hades to Tartarus and release the Titans. Then Kratos lead the gods against them. Then Kratos fights the titans and releases the captive god (giving him an item, upgrade, or spell) to reach his brother as the final boss.
 
I'm really diggind some ideas here... specially Kratos fighting Gigantes. :up:

Probably b/c it's pronounced phonetically as "Gough" like Michael Gough whose awesome.
 
dude I sort of had the same idea with the whole Krato's teaming up with the gods, but seriously you have to give props to this idea that I came up with because seriously what would be more climactic than this. Having Krato's free Ares soul from the underworld to fight by his side to take down Zesus and his Brother. I said this in a other post but I said he would reserect of god and bring them back from the dead but I don't think anyone got that. So anyways I think this would totally be sweet and a real head turner. Because what could be worse then having to make a pact with someone that is your arch rival and killed your family? And for those of you who think that there could be no stories after we kill Zesus, come on use you imagination. If they did what I just said and Krato's and Ares kill Zesus that would leave no one for mount olympious and then Ares could easily take over it and rule the world kind of thing. Someone said though that he is going to take all of the souls in Hades and use them as an army to take over Olympous.

What do you think?
 
I don't know about Kratos ressurecting Ares. After the GoW 1, It seems like that'd be the last thing he'd ever do.
 
EXACTLY! Like how climactic would that be for him to cave in and have to go and ask for help from someone who he like seriously would bring back to life just to rip out his intrails. I swear that would be amazing to see him have to sum up the courage to bring back Ares to help him fight the war against his brother and Zesus. I think it would be a tight idea.

I do like the idea of him teaming up with Ares to fight Zeus and his brother, but it still seems to me like this would be the "final" chapter of the saga. No offense, but I'm not really digging the whole Ares can become the lead God after Zeus dies and take over the world idea. I mean Kratos beat Ares once, and that was befoer he was a God, I don't see how Ares would pose that much of a threat now that Kratos is a God too. If you had it so that Ares isn't alone in his quest to rule over Olympus and earth, then I think it would work a lot better.

But I do really like the general idea of teaming up...In fact, why would Kratos necessarily have to team up with Ares? Ares is most likely in Hades (well Tartarus but you get the idea) and this is also where Kratos' brother is...Why don't those two team up to exact revenge on Kratos whom they both hate. The only way Kratos could defeat them would be to team wit Zeus himself, which of course Kratos hates...
 
Because Zesus wants Krato's brother to protect him from Krato's that why his brother and Zesus teams up or something and promises him revenge. Like I can see it now you are fighting Zesus and you think its over and you have a sliver of health left and Zesus falls to the ground and pretends to be wounded and then he hits you with a cheap shot and you got flying into a wall clinging onto life and then he calls into the darkness and through the darkness bright yellow eyes break through the colorless shadow and out steps your brother ready to render you limb from limb. And maybe he kills you and you have to fight your way out of hades again and thats how Ares ties in you see him and you know what you have to do. What if you could make choices in God of war 2 that effect the games story like "Would you like to team up with Ares or leave it to a true monster." or something I think that would be tight. Also the whole Ares taking over Olympous by himself I think maybe he should team up with all of hades and maybe Hades himself because maybe he backs up Krato's decision to kill Zesus because didn't Hades want Olympous in Greek Mythology? I think this story is going to be tight because watch Jaffe will make a story none of us would ever think of.

Kratos asking Ares for help would be like Batman asking the Joker for help. It'd never happen.

BTW, Zeus is with one S.
 
What happend with Kratos' brother who hates his guts.Could it not be his retribution.
 
To the guy with the Tobias pic, great taste, I LOVE that show. So underrated though :(

But I liked one of the ideas in the extra movies, where the modern military find the corpse of the last titan, with the temple on his back, and stumble into it. It would be familiar, yet totally different in a lot of ways. But any sequel is great. But if he is a god now, won't it make it too easy?
 
Maybe Hades and Kratos' brother depose him somehow, or most of the fighting could take place outside of earth. Kratos has his incredibly powerful blades that have been forged for him, but being a god doesn't make him automatically invincible...

Come to think of it, that area he's in looks like it could pass for a aprt of Olympus even.
 
I don't recall the previous game having a story good enough to warrant all this speculation.
 
Warranted or not, there are a lot of possibilities for where the story goes in GoW 2. We'll probably see more of it either March 15th, GCD or E3 for sure.

Didn't you see the special videos?
 
Oh yeah, I forgot all about the "special videos", that changes my whole outlook.

Exactly its something that is so unlikely that its almost amazing its like a kid who hates his dad but is failing at life and has to drive the twenty five miles to see the sight that makes your stomach clecnh and knot however you need money/his help. I still know its like no possibility but I think if we are going up against Zeus then I think its very possible Krato's would stoop this low since none of the other gods would help him. Ares hates Zeus because he casted his favor on Athena so of course Ares would jump at the chance to kill his father that he hates with a passion. I'm still digging this story:)

P.S. Thanks for telling me that its spelt with one s I'm always afraid of making spelling errors and I bet I make a lot of them but for some reason no one flames me out for it? Lets keep it that way guys:up:
 
What if after you over throw Zeus and your brother and stuff that Ares is bound on turning against you again and this time he hits you low by bringing back everyone you killed while doing your duties for him. He brings them all back from the dead from Hades and he hits you low by bringing back you dead family or something crippling you and then at the end of God Of War 2 the screen goes black and all we hear is Ares Voice "Are you ready now ready to serve your master?" or "Are you ready to join superiority?" or "Join the dark side because we get to wear black armor and capes!"
 
God of War 2: Devine Retribution

Open to: Sky line

We panel along the skies that is dominated by a sea of clouds, the white gas then turns orange as dawn raises her rose red fingers and casts light on all of Greece. We panel along the ruins of Athens’s seeing that it is still ruined however many civilians work hard to change that. We panel along more until we come to the Aegean Sea, we then start soaring high and higher the camera reaching such a speed it makes our eyes hurt. It panels up for two more seconds until we see the infamous figure, the Ghost of Sparta Krato’s the God of War. We look at him studying the new blades that he received from Athena in gratitude for stopping her city from reaching total annihilation. We watch as Krato’s looks over the city that he has saved. We then panel over to see the very sword that is still covered in the blood of a God, Ares. We then panel out to see that it is reflecting in Krato’s eye he then looks at the sky.

FLASH BACK

We watch as multiple images come flashing back to him from out recent crusade looking to murder the god of war. We watch as he defeats the Hydra, we watch as he goes through the desert of lost souls and goes into Pandora’s temple gets Pandora’s box and has to escape Hades it’ self and then defeat Ares and protect his family. We then watch it all close up with him sitting on his thrown and played in a faded washed out image we watch the sword stab through the throat of Ares.

Present

We watch as Krato’s screams in agony towards the skies pissed off as the words are said.

Athena: “We promised that you would be forgiven of your past, but we never said the nightmares would stop haunting you. No man or god could ever forget the terrible deeds that you have done.”

Krato’s now has a face of defeat on his face. He then looks at the camera.

Krato’s: “My past?”

All of a sudden we are rushed back through time at such lighting speed we can only get bits and pieces of things portrayed on the screen but some are new to us and we are educated in some of Krato’s past.

GAMEPLAY

The game play screen opens up with us in a town it is night time and we see there are still children running around and playing. There are wife’s who are making dinner for the family in the comfort of there own homes. We then have the objective of going forward because for some reason the house at the end of the street we are on for some reason gives off a sort of vibe of importance. We make it all the way there and a cinematic plays.

Movie: The Truth

We watch as the wooden door opens up and Krato’s peek's his head inside of the house like a child. He opens up the door and walks in very quietly his eyes focused on something that is behind the camera.

Female Voice: “Krato’s?”
We watch as a smile is caste on Krato’s face, he walks forwards into the camera covering it in black.

Cut To: An old woman in a bed.

We watch as Krato’s comes up to the bed and kisses the old woman who is sitting in it. She looks very ill but has strength to kiss Krato’s back on the forehead.

Krato’s: “How are you doing mom?”

Krato’s mother smiles and chuckles but is then followed by a cough.

Mother: “I’ve obviously felt better than this. I feel like Hades it’s self.”

Krato’s laugh a little at his mom’s humor, he then looks towards the fire letting the light dance on his snow white body. He looks at it with such intensity it scares his mother.

Mother: “Krato’s, what’s wrong?”

Krato’s stares at the fire a little while more, he then looks at his mom.

Krato’s: “Mom…”

That’s when Krato’s mother breaks his sentence.

Mom: “Krato’s please not this again, can’t you see I don’t have long to live I am ill and the God of Medicine isn’t doing a damn thing about it. Why do you have to bring this up now?”

Krato’s: “Because you always find a way to twist it and turn it and avoid it! I have the right to know! I want to know and I need to know. I don’t think it’s fair that you would keep this from me!”

Krato’s Mother sighs and shakes her head.

Mother: “Why is this that important to you, why? You’ve lived such a good life not knowing why is it so imperative that you do?”

Krato’s gets up out of his seat and walks over towards the window. He looks out it stalling and then looks back to his ill mother.

Krato’s: “Because I have the right to know who my father is, I want to know the reason why he abandoned us. I want to know why he left I want to know what it is that I came from!”

Krato’s Mother sighs and a tear rolls downed her weathered face. She looks at Krato’s and shakes her head.

Mother: “I can’t.”

Krato’s steps forward.

Krato’s: “Why not! I have the right to know!”

The mother looks at him.

Mother: “Krato’s I want to tell you but something bad will happen if I do, something so terrible that it may be the fate of your existence and I don’t want to risk it.”
Krato’s looks at her and laughs.

Krato’s: “Mother I have defeated some of the greatest warriors and armies. I have easily evaded death when it came breathing down the back of my neck I am prepared for anything.”

His mother has a tormented look on her face.

Mother: “Even if it means you have to kill me?”

And at the end of that very sentence something surprises us as we watch Krato’s mom leap out of bed and starts twitching so violently, her hair grows longer, her muscles expand and her face turns into a demonic face her teeth gets really sharp and she rips off her clothes. She screams a shriek of torment and rushes after Krato’s.

GAMEPLAY Tutorial

The objective of this tutorial is to kill Krato’s mother and learn the controls at the same time. The fight takes place in close quarters so there’s not a lot of room to evade devastating attacks so you need to go all out with this fight with no Hesitation.

Movie: Handle?

We watch Athena’s blades make a quick and swift precise cut across his mother’s neck chopping it cleanly off of the shoulders it was attached to. We watch as a geyser of blood sprays everywhere. We watch as Krato’s stares in shock at the beast his mother has become and obviously he wasn’t ready to kill his own mother. He then throws the blades to the ground in frustration as emotions come rushing over him.

Voice: “Krato’s.”

Krato’s looks at the camera and is shocked to see his mothers head on the ground still being able to talk even though death is claiming her. He walks over and picks up her servered head and looks at her.

Krato’s: “Mother, I am so sorry.”

*******SPOILERS******

We watch as blood drips from her mouth but she fights to speak one word.

Mother: “Zeus.”

GOD OF WAR 2

So that’s my story so far. What do you guys think?
