<p>Show of hands: How many people only know of King Leonidas from the movie <em>300</em>? It&#8217;s okay, I won&#8217;t judge, its how I know of him too. How would you like to <a href="http://blog.us.playstation.com/2012/10/24/gamestop-gets-exclusive-god-of-war-ascension-pre-order-items/">play as him</a> in the multiplayer portion of <em>God of War: Ascension</em>; complete with cape, helmet and spear? Because you can, provided you pre-order from GameStop. The cape, helmet and armor of Leonidas doesn&#8217;t grant you any kind of stat bonuses, but his trusty spear does come with its own unique moves. Maybe the game will go into slow-mo if you throw it and manage to kill someone with it.</p>
<p>In addition to the Leonidas skin, a double sided poster for the game will also be given out. Measuring in at 22&#8243;x28&#8243;, you might want to plan out where you intend to put it instead of randomly picking out a spot on the wall.</p>
<p><em>God of War: Ascension</em> releases on March 12, 2013.</p>
