FTG Gamescom 2012 Hands-on: God of War: Ascension

FTG writes- There were two parts to the God of War: Ascension demo, both the single and multiplayer components. The single player segment was the same section shown at E3 and allowed me to try out a few of Kratos’ new weapons and moves. There were three mini-bosses to fight separated by typical waves of generic weaker enemies and a climbing section. Gameplay felt a little bit different to the other God of War games with the addition of super attacks. Whenever you need a little bit of extra punch behind your attack just hold L1 and press square (light attack) or triangle (heavy attack). They take a little bit more time to execute, so you’ll have to time it right or you’ll be in danger.
