How is Kratos unlikable? He behaves like that for a reason.

During the first game, there was an emotional anchor and I was like, "Yeah! Feel my vengeance, mother fuckers!" The story starts to lose it in the second game and by the third game, I was just kind of over the whole WWF Attitide-era Kratos. I get that's his thing, but the angle got old for me.

God of War 4 and Souls Sacrifice revealed in the same night. wow

Especially the little bolts surrounding Zeus when he gets on the statue. Looks terrible.

That's such a miniscule detail I wouldn't even notice it man lol...

 

[darkwing]

poor Yoshida

 

[Bloodrage]

Ugh...the most unlikeable main character in gaming gets another game.

Word. Halo 5 and 6 are already confirmed as well.

Are you crazy? 1.- That looks amazing, 2.- Not even real-time anyway, it's video lolz.

 

[Vulcano's assistant]

Here's the idea I pitched to Sony.

Kratos wakes up in present day New York with no powers. He has to get part time jobs to earn enough money to buy them back, but he keeps getting fired from becoming outraged at customers.

Online pass enables access to the kart racing online multiplayer.

 

[AntMurda]

Was that SONY Smash Bros. game ever confirmed?

 

[Rahxephon91]

Word. Halo 5 and 6 are already confirmed as well.

Um excuse me. At least Master Chief drops some witty banter at some points. All Kratos does is RAGGGEEEEE.

 

[Ricky_R]

So is this for real? I'm psyched.

Love GOW and love kratos.

 

[The One and Done™]

Welp, time for me to cum. As promised, Kratos, place cock in ass.

 

[SmithnCo]

Was that SONY Smash Bros. game ever confirmed?

It's pretty much known to be in development.

 

[SentientStone]

Just saw the teaser: not excited at all yet, really hoping this is not another GOW. The series needs some major changes to get me interested again, a setting change would be ideal like what the Assassin's Creed series did.

 

[ZealousD]

Kratos is Walter White.

I haven't gotten into Season 4 yet, but putting Walter White and Kratos in the same category of anything sounds like heresy to me.

 

[LiK]

Let's wait for E3

 

[rhino4evr]

Kratos started as a great character but has turned into a sadistic prick. He might as well kill babies in the new game

 

[BadWolf]

As someone who's fresh off the third game that trailer got me really hyped, really curious to see what direction they take.

 

[Pyrrhus]

He fights his way up out of hades

Just like every game, right?

Kratos started as a great character but has turned into a sadistic prick. He might as well kill babies in the new game

What are you talking about? He kills a guy he could just as easily save in the first level of the first game. And killing babies is literally part of his back story. He's always been a berserker asshole.

 

[Represent.]

More GoW is just what I need to re spark the gamer in me. GODLY news

 

[Radec]

So is this for real? I'm psyched.

Love GOW and love kratos.

Yep. 100%

 

[Raoh]

Holy...


How much are they going to amp up the blood and gore for this one?

 

[GraveRobberX]

Well there goes my Quintology for God of War

Bring on Ascension (IV)!

Make it a Sextupology once I get my hands on it... Oh Yes!

 

[rhino4evr]

I haven't gotten into Season 4 yet, but putting Walter White and Kratos in the same category of anything sounds like heresy to me.

Walter white is definitely not as evil as Kratos.lol
Q

 

[LightofRohan]

Damn E3... hurry up. The premise is not that exciting, but I know they'll deliver hardcore. The demo will be stunntastic.

 

[Chuck Norris]

Meh, seems like the SSM team have no balls and have just been playing it safe for a long time now

Could have been so much more.

And Kratos is a great character. But I'm sick to death of him

 

[Yoshichan]

Holy...

T-Rating, bro!

I think they wanted "Zeus lightning" not actual real world lightning.

 

[Gsak]

I see many people still think it's a sequel. I think the teaser trailer makes it pretty clear it's a prequel.

From what I got, I think it's gonna be set when Kratos turn against Ares, right after he kills his family.

 

[KingK]

I haven't gotten into Season 4 yet, but putting Walter White and Kratos in the same category of anything sounds like heresy to me.

You need to watch season 4. So good.

Also, someone with better photoshopping skills than I needs to take this picture of Walt and put the Kratos red tatoo across his face.

 

[Deleted member 81567]

Are you crazy? 1.- That looks amazing, 2.- Not even real-time anyway, it's video lolz.

I'd say it looks worse on an HDTV, where all the amazing visuals show and the shitty lightning stands out prominently.

 

[LiK]

Jesus

 

[pseudocaesar]

Um excuse me. At least Master Chief drops some witty banter at some points. All Kratos does is RAGGGEEEEE.

Um excuse yourself, has Master Chief ever ripped the head off a god with his bare hands ... and proceed to use it as a torch?

NO.

Didn't think so.

 

[ThatCrazyGuy]

Wait, no PS4. Whaaaattt/

Did I miss the trailer?

 

[jett]

I don't think 3 tried to make amends at all. It fucked it up much worse than 2 did, though 2 did a good job at fucking it all up.

but yeah, 1 was a good setup and seemed to start kratos as a tragic character. That completely flew out the window.

It's funny because the director for 2 kinda does feel like he ruined the series.

It took it to new directions I didn't expect, it just got way too ambitious and complicated toward the end. The third one was left with a mess of a story that was basically impossible to fix up so it just decided to rely on action while throwing side stuff in it to make it interesting.

What BHK3 said. GOW3 didn't fuck things up, they were already done fucked up thanks to GOW2. The story in numero does is just retarded and makes no sense at all. #3 had to deal with that.

 

[Rahxephon91]

No because Master Chief isn't a giant douche.

 

[Dysun]

Kratos prequel? Didn't we have 2 PSP games like that already?

 

[Yoshichan]

Art.

 

[rhino4evr]

You know it will have amazing production values, which is pretty much why most people will play it

 

[ZealousD]

You need to watch season 4. So good.

Is it on Netflix yet? That's how I watched the first three seasons.

 

[Chuck Norris]

lol I can just imagine the guys at SSM sitting around a table brain storming ideas for the plot

"So what do we know about Kratos? He's angry, he's vengeful?"

"Umm how about a story where he is angry and aims to avenge his family?"

"That's brilliant! And original!"

 

[JaseC]

So, it's an origins story? Didn't Ghost of Sparta play that role?

Dude, that part specifically looks like a painting come to life.

Fixed.

 

[Dug]

Wait, no PS4. Whaaaattt/

Did I miss the trailer?

10 year plan, remember?

Spoiler

/sarcasm

 

[Net_Wrecker]

Prequel? Ughhh, The concept of prequels is so blehhh. I'm sure the game will be good-great, but blehhh.

 

[Papercuts]

What BHK3 said. GOW3 didn't fuck things up, they were already done fucked up thanks to GOW2. The story in numero does is just retarded and makes no sense at all. #3 had to deal with that.

I don't think bringing in LOVE AND HOPE for no reason really did much good either way.

 

[B.O.O.M]

Sony Santa Monica is making it, I expect nothing but excellence

 

[TTP]

So happy this means the end of all the HS2 nonsense

 

[Radec]

Wait, no PS4. Whaaaattt/

PS3-GOWIII-Engine/Tech etc. etc..

 

[ZealousD]

So, it's an origins story? Didn't Ghost of Sparta play that role?

No, Ghost of Sparta was an interquel between GoW 1 and 2. It addressed some stuff about Kratos's past, like his brother, but it's not an origin story.

 

[BladeoftheImmortal]

nerds. we're an angry bunch. like kratos

He's relatable.

 

[BHK3]

So, it's an origins story? Didn't Ghost of Sparta play that role?



Fixed.

You mean chains of olympus? GoS wasn't a origins story.
