Ahhhhh.......Powerstone. What an awesome game in which to draw influence from.

Emilio_Estevez4407d ago

Now I'm very interested to see how this turns out.

MaxXAttaxX4406d ago (Edited 4406d ago )

True. It sounds pretty good to me.
And I like how it still has so much GOW essence.

smashcrashbash4407d ago

Yes it is. A bigger, wider field, Powerstone style is just the kind of thing I want to hear about the new MP. That said maybe Sega could take a hint from this and make a new Powerstone. It would be even more fun to have a new Powerstone game with a less cramped arena to fight in.

So PS3 has Powerstone and SSB mix with their own style and of course, in HD. Great addition to the exclusive lineup imo.

gaffyh4407d ago

It sounds pretty good when you say it like that. I wonder if they're looking at PS All Stars and taking some inspiration from that too

supraking9514407d ago

omg Capcom will gain a lil more respect from me if they made a new Power Stone, they already got some for Dragons Dogma :D

jukins4407d ago

exactly what i've been saying across a bunch of these different articles. It seems like its going to be an action-rpgish power stone type mash up. even more excited now that they acknowledged where they got the influence from.

i f*cking loved power stone, I am interested

God Of War Tried Multiplayer Too Early

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.

Ruined Ascensions story mode. Taking away the one button parry sucked.

abstractel548d ago

Not saying it was perfect but I really enjoyed it. One of the more unique MP experiences. Wouldn't mind them trying again.

Palitera548d ago

It was nuts that they actually managed to make that experience work so well.
The story might have been the weakest (story-wise) in the main series, but the MP was super fun and well done.

I don’t play god of war for the multiplayer so it’s always too soon in my book.

Ranking the God of War Games

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.

MrNinosan559d ago

My same ranking exactly, with Ragnarök at #1.

ClayRules2012559d ago

Wow, that’s pretty interesting that someone has the same ranking as me haha. So, did you beat Ragnarok? I assume so with you placing it at #1

Flawlessmic559d ago

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.

CrimsonWing69559d ago

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.
