However, the timing is a little slower between presses than the console version. Like the Playstation 2 games you can do a finishing move by successfully completing a button pressing mini game.
Even though the Kratos sprite is a little small - I do wish he was larger and showed more detail - he does know how to move.
Sony boasts over 100 individual animations for Kratos, and Im apt to believe them. God of War: Betrayal Betrayal is the only installment in the series to be released on a non-PlayStation platform and presented as a 2D side-scrolling game. Crammed onto the tiny screen are faithful replications of Kratos finishing moves where he viciously tears apart boss monsters. God of War: Betrayal will not let down franchise fans that love Kratos graceful, deadly blood ballets. When in a pit Kratos has little room to move and it’s easy to get surrounded. Unjustly exiled from Mount Olympus by Zeus, Kratos employs a powerful collection of weapons and magical attacks to battle a deadly assortment of enemies and uncover the identity of the mysterious soldier who caused his banishment. The only time when Kratos is in danger is when he’s trapped in a pit and needs to kill a fixed number of enemies to exit. At least in the first two levels enemies will just stand there waiting for Kratos to kill them. Yeah, you can’t do that in God of War: Betrayal and the game compensates by slowing the action down. It takes some time to get used to if you’ve played a lot of God of War because you’re used to an agile Kratos who can dodge roll around a minotaur and quickly counter attack. After destroying Ares, the God of War, Kratos was granted his freedom by Zeus and even given the ousted god’s throne on Olympus. Plot: Once the mighty warrior Kratos was a slave to the gods, bound to do their savage bidding. This quote sums up Kratos' focused rage and purposeful madness better than any other. Chronology: Set between the events of Betrayal (2007) and God of War III (2010). Recognizing that his true foe was the reigning God supreme of Olympus, Kratos pressed forward to his singular goal of killing his own father.
Since some mobile phones can only respond to one button at a time you have to stand still if you want to attack. Kratos' unwavering quest for vengeance didn't stop at the God of War, especially following Zeus's betrayal. Something unusual about God of War: Betrayal is you can’t run and attack simultaneously. You can use the D-pad to move Kratos around and pressing the center “OK” button makes Kratos swing the Blades of Athena. Like other God of War games you play as Kratos, except everything is in 2D. Last week I spent some time playing God of War: Betrayal and it’s a faithful rendition of the franchise. God of War’s first mobile debut won’t be on the PSP, Kratos is coming to a mobile phone near you way before God of War: Chains of Olympus comes out.
