God of War: Ascension Brings Kratos’ Story to Life Once Again

In our recent playthrough of God of War: Ascension we got a glimpse of how the game will begin and why we're even fighting the good fight with Kratos again. In what amounts to a kind of mythological prison escape, Kratos has to battle a living structure that has dozens of heads and arms, not to mention one of that nastiest of the Three Furies confounding you along the way with nasty insect-men enemies. This game still gets top marks for innovative creatures and the dramatic means you'll use to destroy them. And that's just the beginning.
