Kratos' main weapons are the Blades of Chaos, a pair of curved blades on chains attached to his forearms, giving him the ability to swing them at a distance. They were forged in the most hellish depths of Hades and once seared to the arm, they stay so. They become engulfed in flames when used, but cool down when hung on Kratos' back. During specific cutscenes throughout the game, the gods aid Kratos by bestowing their weapons and powers upon him. Kratos gains the ability to unleash a chaotic lightning storm from Poseidon, throw long-range thunderbolts from Zeus, command the souls of the dead from Hades, wield the giant and powerful hunting blade of Artemis, and turn enemies to stone using the head of Medusa, a gift from Aphrodite. Kratos can power up his weapons and acquire magical attacks at any time during the game using the red orbs gained from slain enemies or scattered throughout the game. Initially, Kratos' combos with the Blades of Chaos are limited, but powering them up gains many new attacks, combo strings, increased blocking speed, and powerful counterattacks. Kratos can also enable a temporary state of being called Rage of the Gods, granting him highly increased speed and power, as well as a large reduction in damage taken
In 2007, IGN named God of War as the greatest PlayStation 2 game of all time, on their Top 25 PS2 Games list.
