God of War 2 !!!! *_*

This is what I'm playing these days:
No, I mean, I WILL play God of War II as soon as I'm done with God of War I. And I'll get doen with God of War I once i get done with all this work I guess :-s. But anyway:

God of War II takes place some time after the events of the first game; Kratos, after his defeat of Ares, takes over as the God of War in Olympus, but receives no love from the other Gods due to his dark past and deeds. Kratos finds enjoyment the only way he can, and turns to his army, the Spartans, and aids them as they conquer Greece. Athena tries to stop Kratos from this rampage, but he ignores her, and himself goes to Rhodes to aid his arms. However, as soon as he arrives, an eagle swoops in and steals his godly powers and brings to life the Colossus of Rhodes to fight against Kratos. Kratos initially suspects Athena of these actions as he fights the living statue across the city. As Kratos wears down, Zeus offers him the Blade of Olympus to finish the battle, at the cost of consuming all of Kratos' power. Kratos accepts, and manages to bring down the Colossus at a tremendous cost to his body. Fallen and exhausted, he can only watch as the eagle swoops down again, and reveals itself as Zeus, who tricked Kratos into putting his power into the Blade of Olympus in order to rid Olympus of Kratos forever. Zeus uses the Blade to kill Kratos.
However, Kratos is taken into the Underworld and learns that Gaia, one of the Titans, has watched his fate and offers her help to restore his powers so that both herself and the rest of the Titans can exact revenge on the Gods for the punishment they suffered when they lost the war between the Gods and the Titans. As he escapes the Underworld, she tells him that he must find the Sisters of Fate to change his past, and gives Kratos the help of Pegasus to transverse the distance to the Fates. Kratos and Pegasus fly to the Island of Creation where the Sisters of Fate await, well guarded in both the air and on land.
Along these travels, Kratos encounters, and in many cases, defeats several heroes and monsters, regaining new powers, weapons, and magical abilities that he lost to Zeus' trap. He finally encounters the Sisters, Lakhesis, Atropos, and Clotho, all three that aggressively defend the Loom that can change the lives of mortal and God alike. They even attempt to change Kratos' past by changing the outcome of the final battle he had with Ares. However, Kratos is able to defeat each Sister, and gains control of the Loom. He first tries to go back to the point where Zeus kills him in Rhodes, leading to a lengthy battle with the Father of all Gods. Kratos manages to trick Zeus, wrestling the Blade of Olympus from the God and is about to impale him when Athena appears and takes the fatal blow instead. In her dying words, she reveals that Zeus' actions are meant to break the cycle in Olympus of son killing father; from this, Kratos deduces that he is the son of Zeus. As Athena dies, Kratos vows to extract retribution on the Gods of Olympus for their acts of self-preservation above all else.
Returning to the Loom, Kratos uses it once again to go back further in time, at the end of the war between the Gods and Titans, and offers the Titans the chance to come back in time with him to finish their war with Olympus with Zeus weakened and the other Gods in a state of confusion. The game ends with the Gods of Olympus, in the present, watching in horror as the Titans climb up Mount Olympus, lead by Kratos shouting "Zeus! Your son has returned! I bring the destruction of Olympus!"
