Twisted Metal co-director and former GoW director David Jaffe weighs in on God of War IV rumors.
Sony's PlayStation 4 is home to a number of great exclusives, here we take a look at the ten best ones available for gamers right now.
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.
His concept is blue in the article. The thumbnail is actually protoman I believe... or judge dredd who knows
No, the thumbnail is Mega Man in GoW. There is also a Mega Man Dark Souls and Mega Man Alien variant.
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.
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
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. 😩🤔
Atreus was a seminal part of God of War but he also was a huge headache. Here's how the team at Sony Santa Monica not only made the boy tolerable, but an invaluable asset.
i agree
Gross, Zelda.
You know I would honestly prefer it if Sony SA just leave GOW and start a new IP. I feel they gave Kratos a good send off with GOW 3 and I can't really think of how much further they could go with the series, especially now that almost all major/interesting Gods and Titans are dead.
Rather than bringing Kratos to Asgard to fight the Norse gods they should just make a game about Thor or Heimdallr. Honestly what business would Kratos have in Asgard? Why would he, for some reason, want to start a war with the Norse gods? His beef with the Greek gods was justified as they seriously screwed him over throughout the series, but the Norse gods haven't exactly done anything to him.
It just better be GREAT!!
now back at me, back at Kingdom of Amalur, the formula I've been talking about seems to work, if you put enough thought and effort into it, an open world yet VERY streamlined GOW, and yes having Kratos have branching stories from maybe future decendants of KRatos or whatever is a good Idea, aswell as letting JAffe help Kreate some of these games.
