"1UP reports that Cory Barlog shall not pass his SCEA Santa Monica colleagues in the hallway anymore, as he's decided to leave the studio in order to pursue other opportunities, none of which are likely to involve James Lipton. The game director most notably took the reins of the Grecian testosterone epic, God of War II, from David Jaffe (who also recently departed SCEA to form his own studio) and ultimately oversaw one of this year's finest PS2 games.According to a Sony spokesperson, the publisher is grateful for Barlog's \"work and creative vision for the critically acclaimed God of War franchise\", but is also confident that the remaining team will successfully churn out \"epic content with God of War: Chains of Olympus for the PSP and God of War III for PS3.\" Yes, that's the same God of War III which remains officially unannounced but completely expected. Try not to muck it up, Mr. Barlog's replacement!"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
