What's happening? I am frightened.

My post has vanished.

Anyways, I'm disappointed that this appears to be another prequel. I'm played out with Greek mythology. I hoped for some other type of folklore or mythology (you could even have Kratos as a fish out of water type), but if it's more Greek mythology, I am done.

There's a longer 1:15 second version.

No, there's a longer one with that Gaia chick doing the narration. I still can't quite place where this is taking place, but it's post killing your own family now I'm mad at other people phase.

edit: Oh shit, Sony Police. Everyone, to your bunkers!

Banana Kid · Apr 19, 2012

So it's a prequel?

Didn't they already do two of those on the PSP?

Description of the game

Join Kratos as he seeks freedom, redemption, and the clarity to avenge his family in the most ambitious God of War adventure in the series so far

Probably just took it down until staff figured out what to do with it.

I wish this series would shake things up and go for a modern era twist like what was hinted at in that secret trailer in GoW1.

Me too, or a reboot with a different era of gods. A.k.a. Norse mythology.

GoW3 was fucking amazing, what do you mean it's stale?

More like "God of Bore".

Did I do it right?

Papercuts · Apr 19, 2012

I have no idea what happened to this thread but I shall reiterate my opinion:

Kratos. :| :| :|

Seriously didn't expect them to use him again. Really disappointing.

I don't get why we're getting another prequel. There really isn't any room left to tell about what he did prior to the events of the first game.

But the teaser is pointing out to a time before Kratos became mad (or I misheard what the old lady said :/).

No problem there. Ghost of Sparta was better than GoW3.

Thread gone, now back?

Either way, don't care if it's prequel or not, just tell me when (and please, not this christmas, my wallet can't take it anymore)

AleeN634 · Apr 19, 2012

Taking the safe route but hopefully tomorrow will give us an idea what the game is like.

What about Tartarus?

funkystudent · Apr 19, 2012

So its ether another prequel (snore) or maybe it is set after 3 and he is trapped in Hades but reliving moments in his past so he can finally rest or something.

Need to know more because I was expecting something more out there from SSM.

Dont want another prequel/side story.

God of War without Kratos would be blasphemy. It wouldn't work and wouldn't sell. It isn't God of War without Kratos.

Sounds like....every other God of War game. :<

Which were all...amazing games. I would like another amazing game.

x-Lundz-x · Apr 19, 2012

Awesome, more GoW is always welcome.

so its a prequel to the prequels? excited for gameplay, probably gonna be disappointed about the story

You didn't expect them to use the God of War in a a game called God of War?

Kratos is badass personafied. Don't want another character, just don't want all the baggage that came with GoW3.

KillGore · Apr 19, 2012

Deleted member 81567 · Apr 19, 2012

Excited as shit. I guess they can't get rid of Kratos because he's a trademark, just like they couldn't get rid of the whole assassin outfit in AC3.

But still, prequel or what?

SweetTeddie · Apr 19, 2012

There wasn't a SSM logo on the teaser, right? Maybe it's another dev, like RAD, and that's why they're not calling it GOW4.

Derrick01 · Apr 19, 2012

Not even close. I just finished it a couple of weeks ago and I honestly can't recall anything from it. The PSP games are entirely forgettable experiences since they lack the epic moments and bosses that make the series memorable (it sure as hell isn't the gameplay).

squidyj · Apr 19, 2012

I'm confused as to exactly what point in time this game is supposed to occupy, I thought we had accounted for all of Kratos' time, now he has more time? wtf?

If it's really another prequel, then it just feels like they just threw their hands up and gave up on any plotting.

"Let's just make a game where Kratos kills shit with fancy gfx" - entire thought process behind next GoW game.

Give me GoW Modern Warfare or give me GoW Norse.

And they made him a Lord of Cinder. Not for virtue, but for might. Such is a lord, I suppose. But here I ask. Do we have a sodding chance?
