dGod of War 2 is out and is getting raving reviews, including the one over at IGN, giving the game a 9.7/10, and also, quite surprisingly, stating that the game will run in “true” 720p when played on the PlayStation 3. They don’t mention whether this is just upscaling or if there would be additional details, like high res textures etc. Officially the game only supports 480p, both on the PS2 and PS3.

Regardless of 720p support or not, God of War 2 is certainly a game anyone owning a PS2 or PS3 should go out and get. Judging from the first series of reviews, the game looks like it lives up to the predecessor, and is the first must-have title of 2007.

[Update] As expected, Sony has confirmed that the game only supports 480p on the PS3.
