God of War is a single player game that features a third-person perspective view with a fixed camera. The player controls the character Kratos, a Spartan warrior in the service of the Olympian Gods in a mixture of combat, both normal and quick time, with platforming and puzzle game elements. The player guides the protagonist through a long series of tests, trials and mazes to achieve goals. The game is loosely based on Greek mythology, and is set in Ancient Greece.

|Comments=Unless you set the CRC hack level to Partial or Aggressive, most of the screen will be bright green, essentially making the game unplayable. I tried Aggressive initially, but that messed up the shadows, so I changed it to Partial, which was fine. Initially there was noticeable lag when fighting multiple enemies, but enabling MTVU eliminated the lag, and from then on, the game ran at full speed. However, it's clearly quite demanding on my PC (it's normally almost silent and the fans got very loud, and the PC became warm to the touch), so I'd recommend using VU cycle stealing for mid to low-end PCs. Once I'd enabled MTVU, there were no other issues. Fully playable.

|Description=From a [https://forums.pcsx2.net/Thread-God-of-War-SCUS-97399-U--29467?pid=618934#pid618934 this post]: When playing with Hardware renderer upscaled you will see vertical lines. There's also green along the nets of the ship at the beginning of the game. This is just a consequence of upscaling. They go away in Software renderer.
|Workaround=Turn off conservative buffer allocation in render tab and enable HW hacks, turn on fast texture invalidation, align sprite, merge sprite and have half pixel offset to special (Texture - aggressive) and round Sprite to half and make sure to use OpenGL renderer. There will be small amounts of green on very far objects but it's playable.
|Workaround=Turn "Half-Pixel Offset" hack to "Special (Texture)" to remove the vertical lines.
