God of War 4 leaked via resume

SystemLink: "If there is one thing that the gaming world is currently lacking, it’s Ancient Greek Gods, gratuitous violence, and a certain Spartan warrior named Kratos. However, SystemLink has reason to believe that might be about to change."

Man, this is awesome! I didn't think PS3 could get any more exclusives...

Kon4766d ago

Well, i have to check this out, even if i'm not much of a Sony fan.

captain-obvious4766d ago

as much i would like to see a new GOW
i want SM to make us a new IP

Imtey4766d ago

Yeah, forget gow4, we need a new IP for from SM studios :(

Kratos is getting stale, weve already seen him twice this year...

malamdra4766d ago

so beyond this year we have so far:

agent
final fantasy versus 13
warhawk 2 (starhawk)
horizon (David Cage's new game)
god of war 3
Metal Gear or Zone of the Enders

lociefer4766d ago

if this is true thn OMMMMMMMMMMMMFFFFFFFFFFGGGGGGG GGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG GGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!

Wenis4766d ago

Wow talk about milking!!!

Oh wait this is a Sony game nevermind. it will be awesome then!!!1

Nineball21124766d ago

I think maybe the W should be a P, eh Wenis?

Yeah, it's milking, but you could have stated your opinion about that without the dripping sarcasm.

OT: I'm always up for some God of War. I've enjoyed every single iteration of them that I"ve played.

Shang-Long4766d ago

wenis.

how many halo games have been released on the 360
how many mario games on the wII
now how many gow games on the ps3...

seems like alot since its on 4 but the 1st two were on the ps2 and the 2nd one came out when the ps3 launch.

ExplosionSauce4766d ago

With a slightly different gameplay.

But we'll just have to wait and see what this is all about.

Crystallis4766d ago (Edited 4766d ago )

Put that fanyboyism aside and play GOW..better yet play GOW3, its one the best titles this gen.

cochise3134766d ago

If you're not a sony fan then why keep coming into these threads?

juggulator4766d ago

It's probably definately true. I saw a behind the scenes vid of the development for GOW3 and I could see them using Autodesk Maya on some of the monitors. I'm currently learning Maya 2011 through a college character develpoment course. Hopefull one day i'll be as good as some of those guys.

Dee_914766d ago

@Wenis
xbot using terms he has no idea what it mean
how sad

HardCover4766d ago

I agree captain-obvious

Santa Monica said after 3 they'd give Kratos a rest for some time(except on PSP).

A bit disappointing to see something familiar instead of something fresh.

Biggest4766d ago

I'd like to see SMS do something with the God of War 3 engine. Heavenly Sword 2 would be a great idea. Either way, I'm sure I'll enjoy it. The God of War franchise has yet to disappoint.

Jaces4766d ago

I'm actually looking forward to another GoW game, though I have to admit I don't know where they are going to go now with the story.

moparful994766d ago

@juggulator... I'm learning maya and 3ds max!!! It's freaking awesome.. I can't wait to graduate and start putting my resume in with some studios.. I'm thinkin santa monica or insomniac... I hope they take me, I'm currently working on my own character design and I plan on using it in my portfolio to show potential employers...

Oh my God of war! If this is real......YAY!

@cowkimon

LMFAO! That's funny, my G'ma is a Jehova witness.

BiggCMan4766d ago

Well as much as I want this to happen, i'm not holding my breath for it just yet. This really doesn't mean a whole lot, and I will wait for hard evidence and a proper reveal. I have a minor question for those with a PSP though. How are the two games on PSP? Chains of Olympus and Ghost of Sparta? They look fantastic to me, I've just never got the chance to play them.

malamdra4766d ago

they're good but not that great

kratos1234766d ago

there epic ghost of sparta trully has the best story out off all the games get them now

FinalSpartan4766d ago (Edited 4766d ago )

no they are good. Ghost of Sparta was great! more back story with his brother and that. Ending battle was great. I enjoyed Ghost of Sparta more then Chains of olympus. That one was abit boring. But Ghost Of Sparta was cool.

GOW III was a wicked game! One of my favourites.

waltyftm4766d ago

They are pure class, You will not be dissapointed with them.

mastiffchild4766d ago

The two GOW PSP entries are amazing to my mind. To pull off the epic scale synonymous with GOW1 and 2 you could expect PS3 and GOW3 to be stunning(which it indeed remains to this day-fantastic game)but to do it twice on the small screen of the PSP is little short of magical.

The gaps filled in Kratos' backstory are reason enough for any series fan to pick the two games up but, above that, they stand on the own merits as great, genuinely classy games. That the patented gameplay translates to PSP so well is another boon and they're must plays in the PSP library.

So, for me as a series fan, they stand right up to the incredible home console, main games and stand alongside the other greatest PSP games too. Fantastic stuff.

moparful994766d ago

@biggcman I bought the ghost of sparta special edition psp and I love it.. I started played through ghost of sparta and beat it in a little over a day then I played chains of olympus as it was a free DL with the bundle and I beat it that day... Then I turned around and replaed ghost of sparta.. Man ready at dawn did such a great job on both games.. Best psp titles hands down... Get them now!!

FinalSpartan4766d ago (Edited 4766d ago )

too much milking, GOW3 ended fine, But we saw PSP GOW and re-release too how many.

TheLastGuardian4766d ago

God of War is not milked. The GoW series has never had DLC, Only top notch sequels and prequels. You don't have to buy it but I know me and the rest of the hardcore GoW fans will.

moparful994766d ago

Its not milking when every single game is a significant step forward over the previous.. Not very many IP's can claim that over the span of 5 games... GoW remains the best examples of hack n slash pltforming done right...

gustave1544766d ago

its the best reviewed/selling hack and slash series ever... i'm happy for more GOW

gamesmaster4765d ago

coming from a guy called final spartan?

how many GOW games on PS3

- God of war 3
- God of war 1,2 HD

how many halo games on xbox 360

- halo 3
- halo wars
- halo ODST
- Halo reach

whos milking what now?

Just_The_Truth4766d ago (Edited 4766d ago )

it kinda makes sense why have a contest to see if you can create a ultimate monster or whatever years after GOW3 released maybe for the next game?

Denethor_II4766d ago

Plated and Titaned GOW3. Played it again the other day just because it's so nice to look at. If they can refine the next in anyway it will be a masterpiece.

RevXM4766d ago

Thats why it is a Ps4 release. (It could be)

SM could make a different game for their next release. variation is good, and healthy.

Cant eat tacos everyday, today I'll have toast and a fresh salad.

Solidus187-SCMilk4766d ago

Im looking forward to seeing more about this game.

ChristianGamer4766d ago

Lol talk about milking that cow. This gen we've had Gow 1&2 HD, GoW 3, Ghost of Sparta and Chains of Olympus. Now this will make it 5 games this gen.
When Halo does it its milking. But when Gow is concerned it is the awesomest.

lee_ten4766d ago

first of all, you can't compare psp, ps2 and ps3 games and assume it's milking. second of all, you need to stop trolling.

Stewie2k84766d ago

werent 2 of them on psp? so people on psp can experience GOW. :) and GOW1&2 are HD remakes for the big fans of the game, why do they count as milking?
Please god cure this man from his trolling! oh wait...

mastiffchild4766d ago

And the HD remakes made sense(for once alongside the Ico/SoTC remakes)because the originals came late in PS2's lifetime and GOW1 was heavily pirated while PS3 was upon us when GOW2 came about meaning many missed out on one of Sony's best games.

Milking is unfair with just one PS3 game since launch and two PSP in, what, 6 years of the handheld's life? This isn't like GH/COD with a game out every year on every platform and DLC besides or expansions dressed up as full games. Milking is a hard thing to pin on many series to be honest and with GOW's odd late arrival on PS2 leaving it underselling it's not fair to accuse S<M's best of it at all.

JUDALATION4766d ago

Gow needs an Online component like Diablo to keep people playing the game...With GOW 3 people returned the game after a few playthroughs and other bought it used, shashing SM sales... iM SURE THEY CAN DO WAY BETTER THAN Dead space 2... I would like something fun like zombie mode in blackops... and if you dont like it... DONT PLAY IT!

Kurisu4766d ago

I have yet to complete God of War III...

...I got to a certain point,and then stopped playing.

I stopped playing for so long that I re-started from the first game. Completed that one, but need to start II. After I finish Uni at the end of April I will continue...

Hozi894766d ago (Edited 4766d ago )

Well I can certainly see why you haven't had time to finish them. I myself don't get much time to stare at the T.V. since I started College.

But I highly recommend you take some time to finish them. They won't disappoint.

Why do people like you always brag about exclusives? yes PS3 has tons of amazing exclusives coming out this year, but stop spreading it everywhere like your wanting everyone to jizz like you.

Moentjers4765d ago

lol, these lists always make me think about the early PS3-years 'no games'.

But it's gonna hurt in the wallet...

socomnick4766d ago

MILLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL LLLLLLLLLLKKKK

theres like 9 god of war games now if you include the psp ones.

hiredhelp4766d ago

actually 4 independant ones inc psp.
god of war
god of war 2
god of war 3
god of war ghost of sparta
4 individual titles. them come the trillogy
witch was great for thoes who never got to play the old god of war.

moparful994766d ago

Socom it's technically six.. You forgot chains of olympus which was the first psp release and there was also an abysmal gameloft game that was released for cell phones... We won't count the cell phone version though seeing as it wasn't an in house title.. But there are 5 GoW titles all together...

hiredhelp4766d ago

people are suming its gow4. But what if like me and my m8 used to talk about lots they did make a game simular but another mythical greek god.

Someone drew Mega Man in the God of War style and it's the Norse reboot you didn't know you needed

Every now and again a video game reboot comes along that completely changes how you feel about its characters, message, and the overall franchise. For many people that was God of War, when creative director Cory Barlog reimagined it in the Norse world. Now this might sound ridiculous, but the next candidate could very well be Megaman. Yes, seriously. Artist Marco Plouffe drew the bright blue hero as if he has been brought up in the harsh world of furs, ale, and gods that are a bit too enthusiastic about killing each other and giving birth to giant serpents.

Hats off for the quality of the picture but it's just shaved Kratos with a helmet. Should be blue surely.

Asuka1802d ago (Edited 1802d ago )

His concept is blue in the article. The thumbnail is actually protoman I believe... or judge dredd who knows

yomfweeee1802d ago

No, the thumbnail is Mega Man in GoW. There is also a Mega Man Dark Souls and Mega Man Alien variant.

Asuka1802d ago (Edited 1802d ago )

@yomfweeee

It's clearly protoman's helmet tho...

CorndogBurglar1802d ago

You are right. The artist's page shows he has a bunch of projects called "Mega Man in...." where he takes characters from Mega Man and fits them in to other franchises.

This project is called Mega Man in God of War, but this is totally Proto Man. It even says it on his page.

devind1802d ago

@yomfweeee The Dark Souls one is not Megaman.

Zeke681802d ago

While this was a great article and concept, I think this "wow let's copy god of war" "wow let's copy battle royal" "let's copy soulsbourne" or whatever is more bad than good for the gaming industry. Why not take, in this example God Of War "style", but put it in let say a middle east setting?
I understand small studios (and ea ms studios) wants to copy everything under the sun, but if you can't come up with your own ideas, why have a studio to begin with?

TLDR; be unique - not a rip off from yesteryear

Zeke681802d ago

Sad to see out 6votes 1 like new, fresh ideas and 5 want another copy and paste game.
No wonder we get a zillion Battle Royal games but not one shooter thinking outside the BR, MT's, multiplayer formula. Why bother do something new and exciting when "the masses" is happy with clone after clone?! I still have hope some unheard of studio is building away on their own unique game like minecraft, pubg, demons souls did back in their beginning. Rather play something new now and then instead of Assassins Creed #57, Need For Speed #326 or battle royal #1057...
Seems I'm in minority here thinking like this. 😩🤔

AK911802d ago

Um no I’m good thanks.
