It's probably because they're only relying on the world and mythology present in the books, not the actual story. They're taking the pantheon from Theogeny, but they don't need anything else. If anything, the idea of hurting gods comes from Homer, so they're drawing on him a little.
I haven't played God of War, but I'm pretty sure its well after Homer's works, because his work is set prior to the Greek period that most people know, when Greece was still culturally Mycenaean. So I'm almost certain the game would HAVE to be set after Homer's works.

The fight with Hades isn't impressive.
But the first boss fight you get in? With Posedion? Omg. Brutal.

This all brings back memories of my Greek Civilization course. Though, I know one person Kratos would have a hard time beating... ...but due to a lack of youtube videos I can't finish this pun. Edit: Ah, screw it. Mitsurugi da! Oboetoke!

Stargate though they weren't really gods. Most of their "god" powers came from technology.

It was funny seeing all those big god names being associated with such tiny little aliens.
