What went wrong?
Nothing. It was the best game in the series.
With 2? Nothing, it was superior to 1 in every way. 3 wasn't too bad either, but then they decided to keep going and not changing the franchise at all. Hope the new game makes it fresh.
>>333325392
They should have just ended with 3
Why do dudebros like GoW so much? It's really unexpected that a game not based on reality would attract them.
>>333325392
Shit combat and edgy story. Never got the appeal desu.
>>333329247
Do you really think the combat is shit, or just simple?
Garbage combat and a horrible story.
Do these games work with the PS2 emulator or should I just buy the collection for the PS3?
>>333327167
It's the ultimate macho power fantasy, where you play a being of muscle and rage and then beat the shit out of all the gods because you're pissed
>>333325392
Out of all the God of War games, I like to replay 2 the most.
>>333330062
ever beat it on God Mode?
I would love to see a new GoW series set in ancient Egypt. Norse mythology would be a second, but fuck, we need more games set in Egypt.
God of War and Uncharted are two of my favorite video game franchises and I've been on /v/ since 2008.
Fight me.
>>333325392
Second one was the best. Kratos murdering "m'lady" perseus was epic.
Is Ascension any good? It's the only GoW game I haven't played.
>PS4 gets GoW III remaster
>Not just GoW ultimate collection with all 6(?) games.
Rip off.
>>333330767
I was always told it's mean to pick on retards.
>>333330767
No one but a console warring sonygger could possibly hold an opinion like this.
>>333330794
>>333330062
I also agree that 2 felt like the best. Nice challenging bossfights and puzzles.
>>333331041
Actually I mostly play on PC. MY ps3/ps4 is for Souls/GoW/Uncharted. Everything else is on PC.
>>333330873
It's okay. Probably the worst in the series, but it's not terrible. Haven't tried mutliplayer
>>333330521
not him, but I got stuck on cerberus for a long time on god mode. beating cerebus was beating the game as far as i was concerned.
>>333331139
God mode is a joke. Very Hard without upgrades is a challenge.
>>333331580
thats the hardest difficulty isnt it?
I'm just saying, cerberus was really hard to beat because of the infinite spawning dogs.
>>333331703
Hardest difficulty in GoW II is Titan Mode but in GoW I it is God Mode.
And they weren't that hard if you learned how to throw those little Cerberus and deal some massive damage.
>>333330873
Not sure about that, if you still have the ps3, buy the Collection and God of War 3.
>>333325392
Nothing?
>>333330767
Won't fight you but curious about what you like about those two franchises
>>333330767
it would be one thing to say that two of your favorite games are GoW 2 and Uncharted 2
its another to adore the franchises. You have to have just not played better games because you'fe been looking at the world through sony tinted lenses
>>333325392
the only bad about GoW was 3 is too short
i love greece mithology
>>333330603
>god of war norse mythology
You're in luck

>polygon
yea yea
>>333333465
They entertain me. I love treasure hunter stories, and mythology stories, none of which really exist in any other games.
I legitimately don't understand the hate that either series gets, as they're both very well made and are top quality for what they aim to do. Also, people comparing GoW to DMC are retarded. They're nothing alike at all.
>>333333769
Who says I don't play other games? There's a ton of other more obscure "/v/ approved" franchises that I love too, but the hate that these two series gets here is unmerited, again, given how good they are at what they set out to do.
>>333325392
>God of War
Babby's first hack n slash
>>333330767
I actually like the Uncharted games for what they are. As far as "cinematic" action shooters goes they are pretty good.
GoW on the other hand went to shit after GoW2.
>>333334146
>Hack n slash
God of war is a grand exploration game that happens to have quick arcade-y sword based combat. It not even in the same genre as DMC, MGR, or Bayonetta.
People who play GoW for the combat are retards. The combat is there to fill the game. It's fun and simple. It doesn't have a whole lot of depth, but that was never the goal.
DMC (at least 4 anyway), bayonetta, and MGR all have really linear and dull level desigh compared to GoW, which has always had a very grand sense to it.
Metroid Prime also has really really shitty FPS gunplay, but no one complains about that because they realize that that's not the point of the game.
>>333334278
I agree that the games after 2 weren't as good, same with Uncharted, but regardless, the franchises as a whole are still good, even if they've been declining in quality.
Uncharted Golden Abyss was a lot better than 3 though, and Uncharted 4 has a lot of promise.
>>333334140
>There's a ton of other more obscure "/v/ approved" franchises that I love too
not if you're a sony only player, no you dont
I mostly even agree with youre defense of the series. I love big budget mythology and adventure stories too. The series do not deserve the flak that they get. But they only have one fantastic game a piece and the rest are either above average or mediocre. Having them as favorite franchises is a little odd
>>333334695
>Uncharted Golden Abyss
the gyroscope aiming is fucking amazing in it. Honestly closest thing to mouse control there is. I dont know why this control scheme has been forgotten. The sixaxis had the capability but sony never released windows drivers for it and nobody developed games for it
damn shame. would make console shooters a hell of a lot less casual
>>333330767
Not sure about Uncharted
But I love God of War
>>333334712
>Sony only
You're making assumptions left and right. I own several nintendo systems, as well as an Xbox, and like I said, I mostly play on PC.
Also God of War 1 was almost as good as 2, and the two PSP games were great as far as PSP games go. Uncharted 1 was also good, and while 3 was a letdown Golden Abyss was fantastic.
What is the most hated part in the God of War franchise and why is it the Kratos clones in GoW1?
