Cory Barlog Comments on God of War 3 FoundationPosted 3:15pm Fri Jan 04, 2008 by Shiva Stella Tags: Sony, God of War III, God of War II, Cory Barlog, people
Cory Barlog has updated his personal blog with a tid-bit on his parting ways with Sony as well as a smidgen on God of War 3's development, claiming that the game is still "in good hands" and that "the Sony Santa Monica team is one of the best teams [he's] ever worked with." He continues:

...[I]mmediately after I finished God of War 2 I was already working on the story and design for the third game. So when Sony and I finally did part ways the foundation of the game, along with [a] story that completes the arc we began in God of War , was complete. I wish I could have been there to see it through to the end, but it was just not meant to be I guess. The story is going to finish off with a very big, very epic bang though. I think everyone will be quite pleased. Well, everyone except edge magazine that is...

The good news for die-hard GoW fans is that Barlog had a direct hand in the plot's direction and ending, minimizing the chance that Sony is taking the title in a completely off-the-wall path.

God of War 2 scored runner-up for GameBump's Best Action Game of 2007.

[GOTY] Best Action Game of 07: Assassin's CreedPosted 1:38pm Tue Dec 18, 2007 by Shiva Stella Tags: Game of the Year 2007, GameBump, features, Assassins Creed, God of War II


Our Review (****)


Why It Won: From the outset Ubisoft Montreal's Assassin's Creed presented itself as a different sort of game, as a stealth title marked by unrivaled beauty and the promise of a more open-ended adventure boasting clever target assassinations, amazing buildings to climb, a great musical score and ambiance, and a level of seamless interactivity when the gameplay goes according to plan. It's a damn-near awe-inspiring feeling the first time you perch atop the highest guard tower, ride through the beautiful countryside with the sun at your back, or engage in roof-top leaping for that quick getaway following a smooth-as-silk assassination (or if you're like me, the tragic unexplained death of a civilian - practice makes perfect).

GB Review: Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare Multiplayer (360)Posted 10:14pm Fri Nov 30, 2007 by John Godfrey Tags: Call of Duty 4 Modern Warfare, 5 stars, john godfrey, Xbox 360, review

COD4: The best online gameplay the 360 has to offer?


By now you already know that Call of Duty 4 is the greatest thing since sliced bread. Or the greatest thing since Halo 3, at least. It ushered in the first modern warfare title of the series, and the online component is just as great as the single player campaign. With a bevy of reasons to keep playing, namely leveling up to unlock new abilities, weapons, and weapon attachments (and getting cool-sounding military rank names), and game mechanics that work just right, COD4 is a game you're going to want to pick up right now and not put down for a long time. Excuse me while I rank up.

score: 5 out of 5

Click here for an explanation of our review and scoring format.

Right now, not everyone is completely enthralled by the
"jump while shooting a sniper rifle then throw a grenade while melee attacking someone on the way down and land" gameplay that is Halo 3 multiplayer. And While Team Fortress, one aspect of the trifecta of awesome which is the Orange Box, is definitely a fresh fun addition to the 360's online FPS roster, it's a very specific gameplay type that may not appeal to all. Enter Call of Duty 4, the first modern warfare installment of the series - and mayhaps the best first-person shooter on the 360 to date.

COD4's gameplay is based much more on reality than the fantasy and stretches of the imagination other online titles are offering - you don't need to unload an entire clip into an enemy to kill them, as a few choice shots will do. You also don't have leaping abilities that defy the laws of gravity - all combat takes place on the ground here. In fact, you can probably recognize the gamers who had a little more than their alloted dose of Halo 3 when they run at you jumping while firing a sniper rifle - they learn to adapt quickly.

18 Greatest VG Endings Ever?Posted 8:25am Wed Nov 28, 2007 by Aaron Dunlap Tags: video game endings, god of war, game history

The linked article preports to detail the 18 best video game endings of all time. Personally, I think the list contains way too many fighting games and there is a serious lack of Metal Gear, but tastes are tastes. Without spoiling the sense of tension as the list drags on and your favorite game hasn't appeared yet, the first on the list is God of War:

Players who completed the original God of War in its entirety were treated to a final cinematic where Kratos impaled the chest of Ares with a massive sword causing the dying God of War to make gurgling noises as blood sprayed out of his punctured torso. And if this gruesome scene wasn't enough to satisfy you, the video then goes on to show Kratos attempting to splatter himself by jumping off a cliff and the finale where the he goes on to become to new God of War. Deicide, suicide, and getting promoted from slave to God, what more could you possibly want from an ending?

God of War III Officially Confirmed for PS3, And Soon?Posted 11:50am Wed Nov 07, 2007 by Shiva Stella Tags: PlayStation 3, sony, God of War III, rumor
Here's a wonderful and strange bit of news for God of War and PlayStation 3 fans this morning, as reports are coming in that Sony has officially confirmed that God of War III for the PS3 is indeed being developed at the company's Santa Monica studios.

In related news, Cory Barlog, the franchise's original director who let hints at the title's development slip last March, is leaving the studio for currently unknown reasons; you can view his personal blog here but he's yet to comment on his departure or the GoW3 official confirmation.

This next bit is because I can't resist and is most assuredly untrue, but JeuxFrance is also reporting that the game will release "in the next few months" - this may be due to a mistranslation on their part (or mine, as I'm not exactly fluent in French), but the words are currently still up on their version of the story, viewable here. If this rumor were in fact true, though, it'd be the miracle Sony needs to sell as many PS3s as possible this holiday season, especially considering the new 40GB version's availability.

So what do we think?

New God of War: Chains of Olympus ScreensPosted 12:41pm Mon Oct 29, 2007 by Shiva Stella Tags: God of War Chains of Olympus, PSP, screens, kratos

It's always a good day when the now-legendary Kratos is around. New images of him battling various monsters of Greek lore in God of War: Chains of Olympus are in and available at the link. The game is set to launch for the PlayStation Portable on March 4, 2008. I am giddy for anything that is ancient Greek.
