Resolution Magazine writes: "Over the past couple of days, this is the game to have drawn in the crowds. Its booth is regularly the busiest here at the Eurogamer Expo, with excited hordes gathering gleefully around the eight enormous screens. There's a reason for that, and you don't even have to actually play it to understand that.
You want evidence? Okay. How about the scene where Kratos grabs Helois, wrestles him to the ground, then slowly rips off his head, with agonising screams and tremendous amounts of spraying blood? Just minutes earlier, Kratos had gouged out another character's eyes. And earlier still, an enormous, fiery beast towered over a gargantuan courtyard, thumping and stomping around in the distance, before raising a bloody huge foot and clambering up in chase of the player. One of his toes is roughly the same size as Kratos."
The Opening Levels that hooked gamers from the outset.
Cultured Vultures: Let’s delve into Kratos’ long and rampageous history and find out which games are worth the hype and which are better left buried under the weight of Kratos’s might.
Both requels over 2 and 3? Clowns. Those are two of the most boring games I've ever played.
My favorite was part 2 and I think Ragnarok is better that 2018.
There is no worst. Except for Ascension, only cause I didn't play it lol. They are all masterpieces. 1,2,3, 2018 and Ragnarok. 1 of, if not the greatest video game franchise...besides MetalGear.
Can't agree, older games do so much more than the last two. More weapons, magic abilities, enemies are more varied, level design is also more aesthetically pleasing, and agree with those who say that they shouldn't have removed jumping. Was a time I'd agree, but those old games are so so much better, that they really should've looked into bringing into the reboot/sequels.
God of War 3 Remaster has sold 4 million copies since its inception, making the franchise PlayStation's most profitable gamer merch brand.
Haha I still remember my brother playing the opening scene on ps3!!!
Yeh he had to put the controller down his heart was beating too fast trying to get past first 10 minutes. He said "it's too much". Best thing I've ever seen in gaming. Haha
I know this is unpopular opinion, but I prefer these over the new ones. I’m not saying the new ones are bad or anything, but they sort of get boring to me, whereas the older games were like non-stop roller coaster rides.
Can't wait for this game but i must get the GOW Collection under my belt before then as they slipped under my radar the first time round.
I wish they would announce a EU release date already or i might just have to import it.
"Indeed, the game is a big fan of keeping you in-game. The gorgeously rendered menu screen for the version we played features Kratos’ head, filling the majority of the screen. Starting a new game doesn’t switch you to a loading screen. The camera simply zooms out, then pans around the scene before settling neatly into a third person viewpoint. That gorgeously rendered menu screen was in-game. In-bloody-game."
My jaw dropped when I saw that the first time. This game visuals will be incredible.
plz......hope Europe doesn't come in last
Nice
"It’s one of the most ludicrously vicious games I’ve ever seen. It’s fearlessly gruesome. It’s soaked in blood and relishes in the breaking of bones. It’s the sort of game that makes the Australian authorities scamper for the big, red censorship button. And it’s absolutely brilliant."
hell. yeah.
