As if God of War 3 wasn’t enough, we’re still getting another dose of the vengeful Spartan this year. God of War: Ghost of Sparta tells the origin story of our albino Spartan hero before all of the chaos and power turned him into a bitter man. Playstation Blog has sealed November 2nd as the official release date of God of War: Ghost of Sparta on PSP. Good to see Sony hold their own with a November release date, a time where everyone else seems to run from.
A date and a regular version of the game isn’t enough for the most hardcore God of War fans so the Ultimate DLC pack might be what you’re looking for.
