| So alot of the reviews ar epanning it saying its not as epic as the trilogy. Im loving it. I only have about 2 hours into the campaign, but already 12 hours into the multiplayer. Its a blast and so different than everything else out there. They really nailed the god of war feeling in a vs environment. | |

| Never cared for the console games. Just too generic epic feeling for me. Tight gameplay, its obviously a well-made game but not one I enjoyed. This does not convince me to purchase a Vita... Wonder what it will take... prolly a Tales of... game. LOL | |

| Multiplayer seems fun enough, but I don't think that is what people are buying it for. They want the single player because that is what the game is known for. More reviews have been coming in and the overall score has bumped it to 80%, so it's sitting ok. Like ZeldAnTales, this franchise has never been for me. Tried the first two...meh. Here's some quotes that probably encompass why this game isn't scoring higher, even though 80% is the sign of a quality title. - Quote :
- The gruesomeness may be consistent with the stories but it's undeniably a one-note take on Greek mythology and now, after tens of cumulative hours daubing the God of War series' halls with blood, its impact has been muted
- Quote :
- The single-player campaign is uneven and, at its best, fails to match the zenith of what's gone before - a myth growing weaker with each retelling.
What I take from this is that the franchise is starting to get old. They're running out of stuff to tell/do and maybe people are starting to feel the "been there, done that" scenario. I always loved the graphics, the beast in the game truly feel large, but the over the top gore, slam the ladies head into the ground to advance etc. gameplay was never something for me. I stand on a 2.5 out of 5. | |

Oh, well since I don't follow the series and its on the PS3 / PSVita board I assumed it was for the newer console. My bad. Pretty hilarious, right? | |

| I think if the fans of the series are starting to get bored with it, it might be a good time to give the franchise a 3 year rest. Funny thing is that a lot of people have bad things to say but still rate it high. They might be afraid that Kratos will find out where they live and cut out their spleen and feed it to their mom.
I saw the commercial for it last night. I really don't get it. The current trend of playing sappy music over gameplay with other game commercials is really lame, and this one...I don't know. It confuses me as a gamer what they're trying to convey. Maybe they're trying to appeal to casuals to come play core games. | |
