I'm actually a bit surprised that they didn't release GoWII on the PS3, though it's understandable since it's been in production for about two years now (since the first one came out about two years ago), and a platform change would've taken quite some time.

You mean it's hard not to love a game with totally mindless gameplay, Dragon's Lairesque bosses (and while this comparison would make the game awesome, the fact that they were touted as original makes me retch) and a mask of gore and titties to distract the people from the mindnumbing gameplay?
If I wanted that, I'd play Shadow of Rome. At least there's stealth parts in there.

The game looks really good--I wonder if it'll be better than the first? I'm pretty excited to start playing it.

Tits? Sure, if you get off on gorgons. And gore? ... So? I'm not sure where you're going with that "distracting" thing.
Quite frankly, the gameplay may not be incredibly deep, but it has a cinematic and enjoyable feel to it, that is somewhat button-mashing at times, but screw that, it's fun. The graphics are pretty awesome, the orchestral score is great, and dammit, I thought the puzzles were handled nicely. The whole atmosphere was just great.
I'm also really stoked about the second disc of God of War II. The special features in the first one were actually pretty cool, and I can't wait to see more.

At times? Any combat sequence NOT considered a boss-encounter is button-mashing in that game. Honestly, the gameplay turned me off so much I just couldn't justify playing that game more than needed.

I'll admit GoW's system is nowhere near as robust as DMC, but they operate on the same principle.

Aren't all combat systems button mashing after a while though? I mean in Devil May Cry 3 you get more 'points' for being stylish but after a while you find the right button mash that works and just do it over and over. I don't really think this is GoW's fault, it's just part of the action genre.

Funny, I like DMC even less... (Okay, so my experience was heavily soured in DMC 1 when I found an infinite that, if you kept at it long enough, you could easily get a cool rating on every enemy provided you didn't kill them first).
But anyway, instead of making an educated guess on God of War 2... I actually played the game. It is indeed more of the same, except somehow, it's somewhat better.

I like the God of War series. The gore and tits might be a little much, but who cares? The gameplay is fun, and the boss fights are pretty epic. I'm planning on picking up GoW II sometime soon, maybe I'll just rent it though. I only rented the first one, and I beat the game and looked at the special features I really wanted to.
Trust me. Rent the game. GoWII is too easy.

But I like gore games.
Let us dye the world in despair, and bring a dismal end to this fairy tale.
