The demo I played was the same one Sony have been showing for several months and involves everybody's favourite Spartan Ghost, following a titan as it crashes its way through a city. There are no story spoilers as the demo barely has an opening cut scene, instead it drops you straight into the action."
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.
From Article: "This is a God of War game through and through and ripping evil monsters apart is the same as always, so hammer the X, Square and Triangle buttons to unleash powerful attacks while circle blocks."
...What? I'm confused as hell by this statement. My mind is imploding from the complete wrongness of this. Either the controls are COMPLETELY different from the prior games or he hasn't played a single game in the series.
Square/Triangle: Attack
X: Jump
Circle: Context Sensitive Finisher
I'm 99% sure that the above is the layout from the first two games. Did they change it?
I was watching videos of the demo on IGN.com and as soon as you start the demo it says press O for grab so the controls are the same. Unless its a different control scheme for the Europe or they may have the option to change your controls, but I wouldn't change them cause the default layout is already great. Can't wait till the 17th to get my hands on the demo with the collection edition. By the way the ultimate collection of the game looks sweet, especially the pandora's box.
