Globe and Mail game reporter gets hands-on time with Heavy Rain, Saboteur, God of War III, and more. From the story:
Last week Microsoft showed off upcoming wares for the Xbox 360 to Canadian media in Toronto, and this week it was Sony's turn. Reporters gathered in a medium-rise building on Queen Street West in Ontario's capital Tuesday to check out several of Sony's soon-to-release exclusives, as well as a few high-profile multiplatform titles. Here's what I saw...
The Opening Levels that hooked gamers from the outset.
This is a nice collection of classic. EA has opened its vaults and released a series of classic PC games to Steam for the first time ever.
C&C Red Alert 3 and The Saboteur were two different yet completely unforgettable games to me from a better era of EA.
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.
See this is the problem

Only reporters were there. Unlike X09 where the some of the gaming community was allowed in, along with reporters. There is no PS3 community aspect here in Canada. And I think we need it up here.
