It seems as though "Spartans Stand Tall" has some meaning to it after all; Ghost of Sparta is the next chapter in the God of War series. So far, I've only seen four screenshots myself. It's apparently slated for release later this year (won't count on it staying like that though) as well.
The second PSP title in the series, Ghost of Sparta is apparently an interquel set between GoWI and GoWII (after getting a cell phone title and a comic book miniseries set in the same timeframe, I'm surprised they have enough ideas for finall making a game about it). I don't have any word on who's developing it, but if it's Ready At Dawn (who worked on COO) then I have faith in another quality chapter of the series--RaD has very few games to their name, but what they have made are all ace. Anyway, it's nice to see Kratos still has some things left to be told in his story. I just hope this comes off with more promise than that obvious PoP cash in coming out soon...
Note the new weapon--Kratos' Spartan heritage finally speaks for itself with his new Spartan Spear and Shield. Looks bitchin'. There's also said to be more weapons this time around. Then there's the tough looking glow-guy at the end. High-tier cyclops-esque monster I'm guessing.
That boss (the Scylla, according to devs) makes the Kraken from GoWII look like Squidward. You also gain a new power called Eye of Atlantis. Word of it is that Ghost of Sparta may have over twice the boss fights of COO (which had three--four at best) and will be a good bit longer as well. I gotta say, it already looks better than CoO graphically.

CoO and GoS are two reasons why I would buy a PSP. Or at least borrow one from a friend. >__>
Seriously, I need to play them. I definitely need to play GoS, as it looks uber.

Here's a clip of another section of the game that wasn't in the original demo. If you haven't read up on this yet, this is a segment involving Kratos and King Midas (the guy who turned things to gold with a touch):
