If the dreadful ignorance often showcased by those that advocate the theory that video games desensitize young players to violence wasn’t enough, looks like some of them can see the future too.
Sony's PlayStation 4 is home to a number of great exclusives, here we take a look at the ten best ones available for gamers right now.
Every now and again a video game reboot comes along that completely changes how you feel about its characters, message, and the overall franchise. For many people that was God of War, when creative director Cory Barlog reimagined it in the Norse world. Now this might sound ridiculous, but the next candidate could very well be Megaman. Yes, seriously. Artist Marco Plouffe drew the bright blue hero as if he has been brought up in the harsh world of furs, ale, and gods that are a bit too enthusiastic about killing each other and giving birth to giant serpents.
Hats off for the quality of the picture but it's just shaved Kratos with a helmet. Should be blue surely.
His concept is blue in the article. The thumbnail is actually protoman I believe... or judge dredd who knows
No, the thumbnail is Mega Man in GoW. There is also a Mega Man Dark Souls and Mega Man Alien variant.
You are right. The artist's page shows he has a bunch of projects called "Mega Man in...." where he takes characters from Mega Man and fits them in to other franchises.
This project is called Mega Man in God of War, but this is totally Proto Man. It even says it on his page.
While this was a great article and concept, I think this "wow let's copy god of war" "wow let's copy battle royal" "let's copy soulsbourne" or whatever is more bad than good for the gaming industry. Why not take, in this example God Of War "style", but put it in let say a middle east setting?
I understand small studios (and ea ms studios) wants to copy everything under the sun, but if you can't come up with your own ideas, why have a studio to begin with?
TLDR; be unique - not a rip off from yesteryear
Sad to see out 6votes 1 like new, fresh ideas and 5 want another copy and paste game.
No wonder we get a zillion Battle Royal games but not one shooter thinking outside the BR, MT's, multiplayer formula. Why bother do something new and exciting when "the masses" is happy with clone after clone?! I still have hope some unheard of studio is building away on their own unique game like minecraft, pubg, demons souls did back in their beginning. Rather play something new now and then instead of Assassins Creed #57, Need For Speed #326 or battle royal #1057...
Seems I'm in minority here thinking like this. 😩🤔
Atreus was a seminal part of God of War but he also was a huge headache. Here's how the team at Sony Santa Monica not only made the boy tolerable, but an invaluable asset.
he can see the future!
alot of articles before the actual naming of God of War Ascension did call it God of War IV so probably due to that....still the whole premise of games and violence being interlinked is pretty ridiculous, a (relatively) few cases of games being used as an excuse for violence while the millions and millions of non-violent gamers is disregarded
Didnt you guys know? Hitler was in love with GTA!
Many studies have proved otherwise. This game is also rated Mature.
Just goes to show that the people that blame video games for societies woes have no real knowledge of the industry they fight so vehemently.
