God of War: Ragnarok is an incredibly well-made game. Its story surely leaves fans desiring more, but its gameplay, level design, visuals, and music make up for it. Something that brings this game to the top, though, is its characters and the actors playing them. From Kratos to Odin, every character in God of War is played with excellence.
The evidence lies in the fact that Christopher Judge, the incredible actor behind God of War, himself won the Best Actor award during the Game Awards ceremony. What’s even better is that he got this award from none other than Al Pacino. But it looks like he wasn’t always open about working on such a project before.

Every actor in Hollywood is looking for his or her chance.

Chicago - If you ask me the first console game to get giant robots punching each-other right is the N64 Cult Classic “Mystical Ninja Starring Goemon”, which is strange because that game is the most absurd thing I ever played. I booted it up recently and marveled at how a game that came out over a dozen years ago managed to combine feudal Japan, space aliens, fat jokes, blue hair, and a half mermaid girl to create a really memorable and genuinely funny experience. But the best part was boss fights involved you hopping into a giant robot on roller skates, and fighting gigantic enemies via a metal pipe and coin-shooting cannon from the Pov of the cockpit. As a kid I thought, well, if a stupid comedy game can make robot action this awesome, I can’t wait to see what comes next.
Video Game Rating: 3.5/5.0
And that next was apparently nothing.
