A subdued TC Carson? There and there.
Reboot the entire thing with Norse mythology!
It fails terribly in every game. The guy kills all of the innocent and the guilty alike in his reckless rampages. He is a colossal asshole, and one of the biggest selfish pricks in any video game. He has no regard for the consequences of his actions and is sympathetic to no one.
Every time he starts to cry about his family it's the most disingenuous bullshit. You cannot make this character sympathetic. He's a psychopath.
Look, I'm not saying they need to make Kratos a sunshine and lollipops kind of character. In fact, being a giant asshole selfish prick can be fun. But don't give me a reckless psychomatic murdering maniac and try to sell me that he's misunderstood or his actions are justifiable or something. That's stupid.

It really does sound like GOW1 though, unless I'm forgetting parts of the story.
Kratos could very well be the single most unappealing, morally reprehensible character in all of videogaming.

Go play DmC when it comes out. It's got both!
I don't disagree with this assertion, which would make this game even more disappointing. Maybe they felt that they had the technology to do the battle against the Barbarians as gameplay and thought, "Hey, why don't we just do everything in the first game over?" and went from there.
Agreed, which is why they're still focusing on him. I'm just saying it's not impossible to make a God of War game without Kratos. It's definitely not like Mario.

This also sounds good. I just still think Greek mythology is more popular than Norse.

Besides, there are Mario games without Mario.
I still think there is a strong chance this game is a retelling. Instead of Greek Mythology they could say this is the Roman interpretation of Kratos and I would be satisfied.
This wasn't it, right? Tomorrow will surely have more info, screens, context etc? If not... Pffft.

This Wario64/Yoshida Rivalry is getting nasty.
Constantly blaming others for his problems; I wonder who actually finds such a child-like trait appealing?
It's also silly that he gets rewarded for his hubris.

Sorry if posted before
In GOW1 he doesn't blame anyone but himself, which is why he attempts to kill himself at the end. I've always considered the first game to have by far the best plot in the series. It's actually pretty decently thought out.

I'm really interested to see if Santa Monica or whoever's working on it have made even further improvements on their GOW3 engine.
Should look absolutely incredible.
I think I've had my fill of GoW. I skipped on whatever the last generic title was that came out. It's probably a safe bet that this will be just another iteration with a few tweaks here and there. Yippity hoo-ha.
Yoshida and who? Oh the bomba guy....yea, no.

I rather see put on a pair of glasses and sell meth instead.Maybe Kratos should take a wormhole to New Mexico and fall in love with Natalie Portman?
