God of War (series)/Heartwarming

"Deimos: A true Spartan never lets his back hit the ground. Right, brother? Kratos: I will not lose you again. Come! The fight is not over!"
 * From the first game - "ARES! There is nothing you can put in my way to stop me! I will save my family!" Even Kratos' detractors can't help but think damn straight and cheer for the Heroic Sociopath when he shouts this in defiance at Ares  Heroic Resolve if I've ever seen it. Also counts as a Crowning Moment of Awesome.
 * From Ghost of Sparta - Kratos regains his brother Deimos' trust and the two fight side by side as Spartans for the first time.


 * "My Lord? I knew you could not be killed! I never lost faith." Leave it to the Last Spartan to inspire humanity in Kratos and Video Game Caring Potential.
 * The way Kratos rages after Deimos dies and when Zeus insults Pandora, questioning her humanity. When you see Kratos, of all people, literally drip with rage, you know he gives a fuck.
 * A subtle one, but in the E3 demo for Ascension, Kratos is on the boardwalk. Three soldiers/sailors are running towards him, away from spears. Two of them get killed, but as the third spear approaches the survivor, Kratos pushes/shoves him out of the way, saving his life, without even looking. Sure, Kratos rushes into combat afterwards like nothing happened, but in later games, he would've just let the guy get killed. This really shows that, even after, Kratos still has some humanity left in him to care for some of his fellow man.
