Looking Back at God of War: Chains of Olympus

 
Looking Back at God of War: Chains of Olympus Chains of Olympus director Ru Weerasuriya reveals a scene that got cut from the series' PSP debut, and elaborates on the PS2 version rumors that kept popping up. By Matt Leone This week, we've been featuring interviews with the people behind the God of War series. On Monday, it was God of War 1 director David Jaffe. On Tuesday, it was God of War 2 director Cory Barlog. And today, it's God of War: Chains of Olympus director Ru Weerasuriya. His name may not be quite as well known as the other two, but as a co-founder of developer Ready at Dawn, he's one of the industry's current rising stars. I recently emailed Weerasuriya to find out more about how he views Chains of Olympus now, what he would do if he were making God of War 3 , and his thoughts on possibly making future God of War PSP games.
