Gametrailers TV - Ninja Gaiden 2, Force Unleashed, etc

God of War III is huge just by name alone. SCEA will be betting the entire farm on this first party title which according to Cory Barlog, "... is in good hands."

I hope that's true, because God of War II surpassed all expectations with a great story and imroved gameplay. Kratos will destroy or be destroyed when its time for his PS3 debut.

You're a fool if you think God of War III is not gonna be a MASSIVE huge title for Sony. It's going to be a flapship killer app that everyone is going to have. If people have not played God of War, they will hear about this one, and buy a PS3 for it. The key is if Sony can deliver a NEXT-GEN God of War that truly delivers. It's success will be based on it's quality, of which there is little doubt. God of War III will change alot of things for the PS3 IMO. I think it's already gained a mainstream appeal with fans much like Halo and Gears of War. People know about it , and the third one will be huge.

It's this kind of hyperbole around God Of war success as a franchise that pisses me.

How can a 2 million + seller be considered aMassive HUge game. Is it because it's exclusive? Is that it?

You do not question God of War - you commit to worship it.
 
The show is Ok, but they seem to have a Xbox360 bias. And I do not get the comments about home. I navigate menus at work all day, I think I really would enjoy playing/navigating in a virtual space with my friends.

Not only that, but go to south america, china, korea, japan, fuck -- even india, and ask them if they'd rather have god of war or metal gear solid. (shame other than japan, the above countries are piracy ridden but...)

MGS has worldwide appeal. god of war tears shit up in North America...but that's mostly just it.

Sadly this is a problem the majority of western developed games face overseas.

Yeah, but North America is a much more important battleground for the PS3 than any of those countries.

Star Wars: The Force Unleashed looks good.

It certainly does, and isn't someone else (someone pretty competent) making the next Battlefront ? Awesome Star Wars games coming from all directions is ok with me.
 
They didn't say anything enlightening in the whole episode did they? it was basically "wii will continue to sell the most, PS3 will start gaining ground..." over and over again.

Clearly the guy who knocked on Pikmin 3 and Smash but was digging Star Wars Wii is a man of taste.



I have to commend Jeff, he's the only guy out there trying to get games into the TV space in a way that isn't insulting to gamers or viewers. Doin' a great job.

This episode was basically a 21 minute collection of sound bites though.



Edit: As for home, I think a lot of people are dismissing it a little early based on what they think it's going to be like.
 
I can't wait for The Force Unleased, it looks awsome. Facebreaker looks like it will be a blast to play too. And I definitely agree with the guy that said Starcraft 2 as his most anticipated title of 2008.

huh? Console gaming in Japan (Outside of the Wii) is so small when compared to America and Europe. For the most part it would be a waste of time for the GoW team to make a GoW game that would appeal to Japanese as much as Americans.
 
Loved the show - and I especially appreciate the setup so that you can just skip to exactly what you want to see - nice!

The Ninja Gaiden II footage didn't have any new areas, but the footage was new nonetheless, and that was more than enough for me!

Are you sarcastic? It looks pretty dated with canned animation and poor details among games in the vid.

Awwww, that NGII praise seemed to have struck you right in your poor little heart - I assume you like DMC4, but I don't see the "canned animation" bothering you or anyone else in the official thread...

And what the hell is "poor details among games in the vid" even referring to?
