‘God of War II’ and Darth Vader’s Apprentice

The post-Christmas gaming slump is almost over.

March will herald the coming of spring, but more importantly it will herald the return of ash-white (literally) mortal-turned-god-turned-back-to-mortal killing machine Kratos in “God of War II,” set for release on March 13.

The original “God of War” was an epic, to say the least, and the word on the street (and by street I mean Internet) is that the sequel delivers just as much breathtaking brutality and visceral combat.

Also, Kratos’s coming may be the last hurrah for the PlayStation 2, as Sony is now pushing the PS3, which is likely to host the inevitable “God of War III.” As developer David Jaffe has said, “I am very confident of our chances to be able to complete the God of War trilogy.”

Hades yes.

In other nerd news, the most beloved villian in the galaxy far, far away is getting more attention from the gaming world in a new Star Wars title, as Game Informer’s March issue reveals “Star Wars: The Force Unleashed,” in which players take on the role of Vader’s secret apprentice. Dark side FTW!

Game on!
