Did you know that God of War II was originally supposed to have a level based in the lost city of Atlantis? You didn’t, right? Neither did we. But now we do. Atlantis may now well be the main city in the recently released, really good God of War Ghost of Sparta, it was originally supposed to be featured in God of War II as the sunken city, but the entire level was scrapped “due to drastic changes in the game’s story.”

Check out the video as senior level designer Jonathan Hawkins takes us through his initial designs of the level.

The British Board of Film Classification, abbreviated as BBFC, has rated the upcoming PSP action title, God of War: Ghost of Sparta as 18 +, as is the wont with the God of War franchise, saying the game ‘contains strong sex references and infrequent gore.’

Eh, we know the sex mini games all gamers will be… uh, treated with, in Ghost of Sparta. And of course, there’s the over-the-top, typical God of War action, so this rating comes as no surprise. A report earlier this month on a sex mini-game that Ghost of Sparta will feature read: ‘The game… contains a sex mini-game in which players may lead topless women into a bedroom. Actual sex is never depicted; the camera pans out to the foot of a shaking bed. As players respond to on-screen prompts with button presses, loud moaning sounds can be heard.’

Interesting… typical God of War. Which means awesome.
