"The masterstroke was to treat myth not as a museum piece but as the Saturday night entertainment that it really is, and to know that legends are enlivened, not insulted, by fresh interpretations. The result is a game where cheap spectacle blends perfectly with histrionics, where heroic suicide sits comfortably next to an orgy minigame. But while it gleefully defies taste, it never defies the fact that it’s a straightforward combo-charged bloodbath – before the sequel’s taste for exhibitionism started to turn a little of Kratos’ lean muscle into fat." - Edge
