Hey there lovers of mayhem, this is Eric Koch, Sr. Producer on God of War Chains of Olympus at the SCEA Santa Monica Studios. The great news I have to share with everyone is that Kratos will be in your hands on the PSP March 4th. That’s right people, we are now officially GOLD and the game will be hitting your retailer shortly. Hope you all are ready to hand out destruction of epic proportions on your PSP!!!
Bonus Entry
Hi All – this is Asad Qizilbash, I work on the marketing for God of War. So with the game officially going GOLD, I wanted to give you guys a sneak peak at some of the advertising for this game. Below is an image of one of the ‘tease’ print ad that should be out now, and our ‘launch’ print ad coming out soon. We’re also working with Animal Logic on the God of War: Chains of Olympus TV spot. They were the CG house that provided the visual effects & art direction for the stylized look of Zack Snyder’s film ‘300’..they also produced ‘THAT’ opening 8min Spartan Vs Persian epic battle scene, so as you can image, the TV spot is going to look pretty freakin’ sweet! Look out for the TV spot around launch.
That’s it from me….the game looks amazing and coming out March 4th – hope you guys enjoy it… our retail partners are taking preorders now, so get your name down.
The demo was awesome.
Can’t wait for the full version!
Ok, lets move to the PS3 now and turn some heads.
Ya! I’ve seen the demo everywhere. Best buy, Circuit City, Gamestop, …EVERY WHERE! Too bad I already got it from you guys earlier. It was awesome and I appreciate it. I can’t wait for this game to end all games; “end” because I wont be playing anything else for a LONG while.
BTW: Circuit City has a pre-order deal, that, when you pre order guarantees you a free God of War t-shirt.
ok, NOW PORT THIS TO THE PS2!!!!!!
hehehe
Mine is ALREADY preordered. The Demo was awsome. I’m looking foward to more in the game.
it would be cool if you guys had a contest or a giveaway so people can win this game or a PSP and this game. just my $.02
I love you

If only I have enough $$$… darn my new PSP piano black.
This looks like it’ll be fun to play on the big screen using the PSP 2000 series’ component or composite cable output.

what does its GOLD mean?
Ohohoh. :0
DankandSticky:
The gold or general availability release version is the final version of a particular product. It is typically almost identical to the final release candidate, with only last-minute bugs fixed. A gold release is considered to be very stable and relatively bug-free with a quality suitable for wide distribution and use by end users. In commercial software releases, this version may also be signed (used to allow end-users to verify that code has not been modified since the release). The expression that a software product “has gone gold” means that the code has been completed and “is being mass-produced and will be for sale soon.” Other terms for the version include gold master, golden master, “GM”, gold release, or gold build.

Question: Will there be a special GoW: CoO PSP 2000 released as well? If so that would be to sweet!!! Been holdin out on gettin the slim to find out if that would happen.
This game has been reserved a long time ago. I can’t wait.
