The introduction of new content on the PlayStation Vita's PSN store has some asking, "Will LittleBigPlanet Karting and God of War: Ascension be coming to the PlayStation Vita?"
God of War's forgotten multiplayer mode was introduced nearly a decade ago, but it may have been a great addition if it was implemented now.
Not saying it was perfect but I really enjoyed it. One of the more unique MP experiences. Wouldn't mind them trying again.
Kratos has been on a rampage, killing Gods in epic battles since 2005. With each release managing to offer high-octane action, I explore each God of War title and rank every adventure from his journey to Olympus to his Norse tales of fatherhood.
I won’t rank Ragnarok just yet, although it is honestly leaving me and my wife blown away…won’t go into details right now, not done as I assume others aren’t either, maybe some of you are, idk haha.
But here’s how I rank them
5. God of War 3
4. God of War Ascension.
3. God of War 1.
2. God of War 2.
1. God of War 2018.
1. God of war 3
2. God of war 2018
3. God of war 2
4. God of war 1
Haven't played the others but about 30 hrs In to ragnarock now so safe to say if it keeps up it will end up being at the top of my list when I'm done.
I will say the pacing of the original titles and the epic feel to them I feel is way better than the new one’s. Like, I could recognize and appreciate the praise God of War received, but it bores me to tears except for the pivotal moments.
However, that being said I feel Ragnarok is waaaaay better than 2018. I’m only on Ch. 6, but it’s pretty much rocked my face off from the get-go.
I’m really split between this being my GotY or Elden Ring.
I think different games in the series had different strengths but all are great. I liked the original as it was an origin story and the mechanics were fresh. The sequel added smoother gameplay. Three was just so far ahead of it's time graphically it wasn't even funny. Plus great gameplay and bosses and insane gore and nice use of sexy time. The reboot was cool but lost a lot of what I liked about the original trilogy (I don't need my games grown up, just fun). Will wait and see with ragnarok as haven't had time to play it yet.
BLG writes: "God of War has evolved significantly since the first game launched in 2005. Each subsequent entry has brought something new to the series, be it new power sets, fighting styles, and in the case of the 2018 reboot, a whole new combat system. Therefore, a major component in ranking every God of War game is that game’s impact on the franchise."
2 is my all time favorite with Ascension being my least (but still worth playing). First time dealing with the colossus of rhodes as well as the scale of the steeds of time... just a great game overall.
3 is the best for me, closely followed by the reboot. The reboot lost some of the spectacular scenes in favour of deeper gameplay, 3 was jaw dropping at times. I'm hoping the next game will have the best of both.
Honestly first 2 were amazing. I really wanted Sony yo bring back David jaffe and have him do his own version of God of war reboot working in different mythology. David and Cory could make sure story made sense but I think God of war is a big enough series where multiple entries at the same time
1. GOW 3
1. GOW 2
2. GOW: Ghost of Sparta
3. GOW 1
4. GOW: Chains of Olympus
5. GOW(2018)
6. GOW: Ascension
I would definitely be down for LBP Karting on the Vita. That is, if it still had online MP intact.
*Sudden memories of ModNation Racers: Road Trip come to mind*
As for God of War: Ascension - I think that's a long shot, but then again, all of the God of War games will be playable on the Vita by this summer excluding God of War 3. But who knows, they might enable God of War 3 soon too, so we'll see.
I honestly think this is a terrible path for Sony to take. Console ports are not what hand helds are for, hand helds are for hand held games.
Games like LBP and All Stars Battle Royale are perfect for a handheld experience, so I would love to see LBP Karting on the Vita.
GOW: Ascension though... not sure if it would be a good fit. It seems to me that the game is made of bigger things, don't think the Vita could pull off what they're doing with Ascension, technologically.
I just don't want to see all PS3 games on Vita. Each should have a healthy dose of exclusives.
If Sony ported PS3 games over to Vita for free like how Apple ports Iphone games to Ipad, etc...
Than Vita Sales will boost through the roof.
Enough with the port rumors, where are the original Vita games!? Why would I pay for a handheld version when I can play the superior version on PS3 for $15+ more? This is why Sony is dropping the ball, announce some new IPs for the Vita already, if no one ran out to buy the first lineup, why-o-why do they think people will opt for a handheld version of a game they can play on console!?
