i cant wait to get this game i really hope they make it long and epic as possible and use all the blu-ray space

- Ghost of Sparta -5513d ago (Edited 5513d ago )

I'm still not quite sure why some people expected this clip to be longer. I mean this is leaked and it's a clip, a showing of what's possible when you jump on top of a Cyclops. Nothing more, nothing less. We've still gotta wait until Spring 2010 until they're all set and ready to launch God of War 3. It's going to be one hellish wait but totally worth it in the end.

Knowing Sony Santa Monica's track record, i'd say there is nothing to worry about. These guys are among the best of the best and they take pride in providing gamers with incredible gameplay with the right lenght and depth of story telling.

I believe they said they would take advantage the blu ray space in an interview a while ago.

GVON5513d ago

Man in native 1080p it will look sick,you can tell from the geometry and textures on the cave wall it's going to look amazing.

Bonsai12145513d ago

if i remember correctly, gow has intentional freezing when you combo to certain numbers right? its been so long since i've played it. or maybe when it was a certain point in the combo chain it slowed down for dramatic effect.

sonarus5513d ago

Games this gen have been pretty short. I hope they can make this game epic in all ways

Hallucinate5513d ago

yea it does have intentinal freezing..everytime you hit an enemy i belive its kinda cool

sonarus5513d ago

lol @ framerate drops being cool.

The game is still early on it will take a while before they get rid of the framerate drops but they will

Bnet3435513d ago

HOLY SH*T. I can't wait for GOW3. DAAAmn that footage was badass, it got my hyped!. Seems the same but who cares, still badass.

Itsallfunandgames5513d ago

People be in here talken about, I like it " Long and epic as possible" you agoraphobes are makin me homophobe. You guys just wanna play a little Hacki Sack?

sonarus5513d ago

Why bother to comment if you have nothing sensible to say?

kevnb5512d ago (Edited 5512d ago )

GOD 1 was 6 hours long, they don't get much shorter than that. But anyway, games this gen are usually about the same length as last, which was longer than gens before for the most part.

Rainstorm815512d ago (Edited 5512d ago )

Everyone is excited because those who have played the gow series knows this game will be another gem when its released. or do the xbox fanboys forget when GOW2 was released it was the best action game available that year on any system including the 360. it didnt have super amazing next gen graphics, but the gameplay and presentation was unprecedented the series will continue that with GOW3.

To all GOW fans dont get mad at the "Haters" blinded by thier distain for ps3 they will reject any game no matter how good it is. so be prepared for........"uncharted 2 looks like crap" so far to fanboys "killzone 2 is crap" and i guess by their logic (or lack there of) "GOW3 will suck"

POOR DILUTED FANBOYS when will you become a real gamer

and to the post above me Wanted weapons of fate is 4 hours long it dosent get much shorter than that.

I love those rocks above Helios that the fire is shining on. I love them.

Ju5513d ago

Bu...bu...buuttt the framerate .... was absolutely fantastic.

lolol1235513d ago

games gona be cool but they need to change the animations. looks too much like the older games

rhood0225513d ago

Think of this clip as a placeholder of what's to come--meaning it's representative of the final product but using assets (animations, characters, background textures) that don't necessarily reflect the completed project. That is why the floor lacks detailed textures or the animations seem a little stiff, for example.

This clip is specifically showing ONE of the new features of the game--the Cyclops riding. Therefore, there is no need to go into uber detail on everything.

SupaPlaya5513d ago

People are quick to judge the graphics when what the devs want to show off is Kratos riding on Cyclops. They are not boasting mega texture or closed to finished animations. That's why this footage is not released to the public.

Bubbles.

lolol1235513d ago (Edited 5513d ago )

why dont both of you prove that these animations are placeholders instead of just saying that to make everyone feel better. go ahead and link to proof where they say these animations will be changed.

you cant, because they never said that. this is the same chain swinging animation that was in the official trailer. and its the same chain swinging animation thats in god of war 2 and 1. its likely they will keep it.

saying stuff like "oh this is just the start of the game lolol the textures and everything will improve" is just common sense. little things always improve here and there. entire sequences of animations? unlikely

Baka-akaB5513d ago

You make it sounds as if the animation wasnt awesome . It was then and still it , hence no change here or in the foreseen future in that area .

Both requels over 2 and 3? Clowns. Those are two of the most boring games I've ever played.

Snookies12174d ago

GoW 3 was amazing, but I personally hated just one thing. (This is on me alone, because I was dumb, lol.) I hated that you couldn't skip cutscenes on repeat playthroughs. I had to go back through the game a third time because I missed one trophy accidentally on my way to the platinum... The cutscenes were great the first go round, even the second... But the third was pretty agonizing.

Haven't played Ragnarok, but I still think GoW 4 is a wonderful game in its own right. Not sure how I would stack them up against each other honestly.

Monstieur174d ago (Edited 174d ago )

I don't consider the reboot part of the original series. The original series were high-skill games with combos and rewards for mixing things up.

solideagle173d ago

lol square, square and triangle is the only combo you needed. I have played all of them on the hardest difficulties...

Golfcoachh174d ago

Maybe I’m just old school but I just couldn’t get into the last two. Maybe it’s the slower action and more story telling but the original trilogy was by far my favorite.

Crows90174d ago

It's not that youre old school. They're different genres

JL2930173d ago (Edited 173d ago )

Me either, at all. It's just yap yap yap. They try to be a RPG's instead of being action games like they used to be.

Fluke_Skywalker173d ago

I'd put the two psp games over 3 in terms of story any day. But not over 2.

TheEnigma313174d ago (Edited 174d ago )

My favorite was part 2 and I think Ragnarok is better that 2018.

Shane Kim174d ago

The newer games are better imo.

ravens52174d ago

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.

Snookies12174d ago

Oh wow, I actually forgot that Ascension even existed... I never played it either.

Crows90174d ago

I like ascension. It was different and some interesting combat additions.

darthv72174d ago

If you didnt play it, how could you call it the worst? Its not as bad as the media portrayed it. Honestly the worst are those flash games. they arent even considered true GoW games but in name only. At least Ascension is a real GoW game.

ravens52173d ago

Not saying it's a terrible game. Just mean it's at the bottom of my list. I played a little bit of it. Jus to me, compared to the other main games, it's last.

Fluke_Skywalker173d ago

Ascension is the only GOW game I never finished. Hated it.

Inverno174d ago

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.

Crows90174d ago (Edited 174d ago )

If a game is good then a game is good. Doesn't matter what came before or what comes after.

Inverno174d ago

Of course it matters. If not for what what came before there wouldn't be an after. And if something is great before then you strive to make it just as good if not better, after. I personally don't think there's a fair way to judge the new with the old because the newer games are still essentially a reboot, and went a way different direction. But I still believe the old games did it better. I'm probably bias though since I've been going back to old games and have been finding that they lack all the annoying aspects that devs have shoehorned into new games to fluff out game time.

Crows90173d ago

@Inverno

Im not talking about the passage of time here. Im talking about individual pieces of software. If a game is good then it is good. Thats not a controversial statement. You can compare good with good...sure. But you still end up with good. Now if there is a bad game in the mix and you compare you do end up with some differentials between them...makes sense to compare and see where it went wrong.

But theyre different genres and styles which were individually executed very well.

And no. The new games are not a reboot. Theyre a new direction but simply a continuation.
Tomb raider was a reboot.

Inverno173d ago

The new games are definitely a reboot, and a continuation, it can be both which it is. And a good game might be good, but my point is that if there are things done better before it then there's plenty of room for critiquing and trying to make whatever comes after better rather than just good.

God of War 3 Remastered Has Sold 4 Million Copies To Date

God of War 3 Remaster has sold 4 million copies since its inception, making the franchise PlayStation's most profitable gamer merch brand.

purple101335d ago

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

robtion335d ago

A great game from an era before things went politically correct and gaming turned serious/'mature'.

It certainly wasn't concerned about upsetting or offending anyone and was more fun because of it.

The boss battles and set pieces still top most games released today.

SullysCigar335d ago

This game was absurdly good for it's time. The very definition of 'epic'.

robtion335d ago

Yes. The graphics were just ridiculous compared to most other games on the market at the time.

masterfox335d ago

I wished Ascension had the same treatment.

Heavenly King335d ago

Ascension SP had some things better than GOW3, and also some things worst than GOW3. But in general it was a really good game, for me it also deserves a REMASTER. The problem per se with the game is that most people were satisfied on how GOWIII ended, so Kratos got his revenge, so in order to rise the interest in the game how have to make it MORE EPIC is that the game did not had the epicness of fighting huge bosses (I guess due to technical difficulties,the game had actually a lot more colors (because the world is not dying like in GOWIII) so it is graphically more demanding that is my guess), but it compensated with having in general a more complex combat system, and an amazing soundtrack. but in general the game needed to be more epic than GOWIII somehow, and that did not happened, after GOWIII people had expectations through the roof. They should have waited and release it for PS4 so the vision of the game is not compromised.

My list of good and bad compared to GOWIII

GOOD: THE COMBAT
The combat was more elaborated, which allows you to be more immersed in the fights. Also every enemy was more resistant, even those that you could usually kill in 2-3 attacks in previous games. THE LAST BOSS is so damn epic!!!, but there is only one moment like this in the whole game.

GOOD: LESS QTEs
I love the fact that "cicle" in the new enemies (killing animations) are not QTEs, in Ascension they are mini-games on their own, depending on the enemy, making it more engaging. You had to dodge and hit when the window was open in order to eventually do the killing blow.

GOOD: The Soundtrack
it has the orginal trilogy musics, but with a new perspective since the game had a new composer. The ST was amazing also the new music written specifically for this game were badass

GOOD: The puzzles actually require you to think.

BAD: There are bad camera angles during the game, like zooming way too out of vista, and then swarming you with "light units" that like I said before had better AI and did not die of 2 attacks. those parts a few, but are a mess.

BAD: EMPTY ARENAS
Other thing that really annoyed me is that when you fight a sub-boss/heavy unit in a big arena; that ARENA WAS EMPTY, it was just you and against the medusa, or against the manticore. They should have zoom in into the action to avoid noticing the void scenario. I guess emptiness was because of the game having a lot more colors (because the world is not dying like in GOWIII) so it is graphically more demanding. My guess is that it was not possible technically, since in most of those cases you had huge vistas or intricate scenarios that needed to be rendered. The fact that the cerberus is smaller in this game disappointed me.

BAD: Only one BADASS EPIC moment, the others moments of the game were great but, they needed to set the bar even higher than GOWIII and they failed miserably.

BAD: The graphics did not improved much. I was GOWIII with more colors, and that's it.

So 4 good things against 4 bad ones. The problem is those 2 last BAD aspects are actually why the game was received so poorly. Everyone expects the next game to have a really BIG improvement in all aspects in contrast to the previous one, and that was not the case in ascension. And also GOW is the definition of EPIC, and that was not there neither. The jump on every aspect from GOWI to GOWII was huge being on the same console, and the jump from GOWII to GOWIII was humongous (obviously because a more powerful console). While the jump from GOWIII to Ascension is too little, and people expected more.

On it's own is a good game; but is not sufficient when GOWIII was released before it.

CrimsonWing69335d ago

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.

ChiefofLoliPolice335d ago

I love the new ones but I understand what you mean. The older ones had more action and was more arcady like.

MIDGETonSTILTS17335d ago

Ragnarok was not BIG at all… GoW1 had larger set pieces, and it was on ps2.

GoW 2018 had big moments in its own way…. Ragnarok abandoned these aspects though

robtion335d ago

I agree. It was just less serious and more fun.

victorMaje335d ago

One of my all time favourites.
