God of War PSP will miss Christmas

The PSP version of God of War: Chains of Olympus has slipped and will now go on sale in the US on March 4th 2008, missing out on the lucrative Christmas buying period.

It was hoped that the title would be a potential PSP driver over the period, judging by the popularity of the series on the PS2.

The game itself is a prequel to the original PS2 game, and according to

Gamespot

a special edition UMD containing a playable segment of the game will be given to those who signed up for a demo.
