Sony, Nintendo, Rockstar, CD Projekt RED and Bethesda are all into making high quality single player experiences and thats why they're the best devs tbh. They all know how to make excellent games and continue to build on there already solid foundations.
TroutButter I don’t understand how can you get so mad about a statement that’s actually said correctly? Game, experience, GOW looks like the whole package is made flawlessly and calling it an experience isn’t so wrong... get off the internet if you are offended that easily.
Mr. AmazYn but I just buy a console to play games not interactive movies you know that's why the previous God of War games are better than this. But Sony keep making single player games because of their shitty online service that's why
I was on the fence for the longest time just cuz I never played a God of War game so I didn't know what the experience was like. Now that I'm playing it I see why it won GOTY. This is one of the most breathtaking achievements of a videogame I've ever played.
He mentioned a couple of things that were a bit lacking, notably the final boss battle. To get a 10/10 a game should be perfect. Are we going to start acting like a 9/10 is bad now?
I disagree about the final boss comment. I was left wanting more because it was so damn epic. I’m glad they left me wanting more. Cause it only hypes me up to fight those real GoW power houses to come
haha nobody cares that you won't be playing, this is made by the same team that was responsible for the original god of war games, who are you to say its not kratos?
Joseph Ocasio it's one of if not the best game franchise out there.played the 1st when it came out I'm now 40 and still happily play when I can.👍🏻had mine pre ordered since February.
Meanwhile at the Xbox community: “ but Sea of thieves is good in its own way, sure it lacks content now for a $60 game but I’m sure more content is coming and it will make all the Sony fans switch sides”
Vergil Don't know about all that but it is a very fun game no doubt. Just wish it didn't have to be online to play. Internet isn't always stable or available. Best pirate game I have ever played.
Mr. AmazYn ohhh there are lol I just watched a review and luckily did not get spoiled by which ones are in it But I'm sure there will be seqauls that will continue the norse adventure And then they will go onto Egyptian and then mayan and so on
Jason Rabeiro I definitely said I don't think so where am I said I'm knowing for sure... so far from a friend whos been playing he's yet to fight a GOD...
I was thinking the same. Sony know that psychology behind dropping early embargoes to try to win consumer confidence. I aint spending a single pound until it is released and i see more reviews and a few playthroughs. Far cry 5 and a way out i took a punt on and was happy with my purchases but will wait from now one.
tattoodrdoke 9 out of 10, 10 out of 10 ign destructiod 10 out of 10 easy allies 10 out of 10 what more do you need this is a master piece of a game, how anyone with a ps4 won't get this day one is crazy
tattoodrdoke tattoodrdoke Sorry but the hype is real. The game has been praised by manny reviewers already. The previews, demos, interviews, and more have said this game was going to be great. All you had to do to see more reviews was search RUclips for them. They been up for awhile. So far there are 22 perfect scores out of 76 reviews. That is pretty good. It might be the best score on metacritic but an average of 94 out of 76 reviews is great. The whole I’m not spending money until there are more reviews and a few play throughs tells me you weren’t getting this game on launch day anyway. To Blame it on Sony because of early reviews is a little out there. Just say I’m gonna wait and see. There were a ton reviews out before you even wrote your comment. There aren’t any play throughs of the whole game but there has been many gameplay videos on RUclips showing many mechanics and aspects of the game to know how it plays. I get it if you are on the fence maybe because you didn’t like last GoW or any GoW or you are new to the series. But don’t blame Sony for letting reviews out early. Actually a review like this was the norm. Reviews typically came out about a week before the game. The reason these reviews are early are so people who might have been on the fence can maybe now decide. Btw, Sony is a company that is in the business to make money. So lifting the embargo so reviews are out a week before the game makes sense.
Chris LaFace I havent blamed anyone I have stated the obvious. I am new to the serious but not keen on the gears of war camera angle. I would have preferred a more of a tomb raider when you can pan around a bit more but thats just my own preference. So for me personally I will wait until I see a few more playthroughs. I won't need to see the whole game to decide I will just need to see a few full levels played through to decide as I am on the fence.
Yeah. I'm surprised not many games use this style of cutscene filming as well. I'm not sure about the actual cuts, since in games, it can be a lot easier to hide them and make it look like one continuous shot. But this game and MGS5 (potentially Death Stranding too) showed how well the overall presentation can look like if they do it properly.
I noticed that as well. I think it's because the floating camera more accurately mimics how we experience games. There are no cuts, we just move the camera with a control stick. I think it creates a far more immersive experience.
I know the odds of this are slim, but this older Kratos reminds me so much of Old Man Logan. He fights smarter now because he’s older, but in no way does that mean he’s weaker. Imagine a Logan video game with the same physics! That would be crazy!
I love that there is a health bar now for enemies, in previous games there was little to no feedback on how effective certain combos were and hence felt like button mashing a lot of the time
Dan oz It is high, if you play it on the hardest difficulty. They even said that if you pick the hardest difficulty you can't change it back once you realize you're not doing so well. You'd have to start a new game to get out of the hardset difficulty and I LOVE them for that. Lol
So far it has a 94 on metacritic from about 70ish reviews, and quite a few reviewers gave it a 10/10 or a mid to high 90, so yeah. Sounds like another MASTERPIECE!! 😀😎
Almighty Nintendo Pharaoh I don't doubt that BOTW and Mario Odyssey are great games. The thing is that when a Nintendo game is very good, it gets over praised. Why do those games deserve a 97 on metacritic and The Witcher 3, for example, 92? They are all great games, groundbreaking and all have their flaws. So why the discrepancy?
Fábio Pinto Witcher had 79 critics review it in 2015, Zelda had 109 critics review it in 2017, Mario had 113 critics review it. The more critics that highly review the game, the more chances for a game to get a higher metascore.
mrfuzzybrows well it seems to be getting good reviews, maybe Microsoft can learn a thing thing or two on how to make good exclusives. I'm just saying I'm a PC player, but I still buy Playstation for it's amazing exclusives.
+Tamer Ciffci If your whole identity lies in what piece of plastic you bought, you REALLY need to rethink your life. Some of us just buys them all. That way we can play ALL the good games out there. So just own all the systems and a good gaming PC and you're set.
Along with the return of the Blades of Chaos a moment that I thought really impacted the story was during Atreus's brat-phase after the deaths of Thor's sons and we got to see Kratos trying to be a stern yet caring father when he tries to teach his god/giant hybrid son that killing deities has grave consequences basically this iconic scene. Kratos: "What we just did can not be taken lightly." Atreus: "What did we do wrong we won they lost that's how it works." Kratos: "There are consequences for killing a god." Atreus: "How do you know? How do you know?!"
I’m not one for console wars but please. The competition the PS4 has dealt with is the Wii U and Xbox 1 for the first 4 years of its life span. Nintendo dragged its nuts all over Sony and Microsoft in 2017. 2018 will definitely be hard to beat for Sony at least unless they throw out a bombshell like Metroid Prime 4 coming out this year or Smash being a hit. Where Sony benefits is they are a massive media conglomerate and have access to numerous funds and intellectual property rights. Microsoft is more of a computer based technology and web integration corporation so pretty much, when Nintendo is down, Sony is almost guaranteed to dominate the market.
NO, more of a re-imagining I guess..cause everything that came before is still very much canon and not just shoved aside. It's just a new perspective,a more imaginative one.
The soundtrack is unbelievable and the That first level is the best level in a video game I have ever seen. For me this is not just a must play but a system seller! For me 10/10 and my personal favourite game ever and I collect for nearly every system and have nearly 2500 games in my collection
I don't understand any frustration people have with this review. If he sang praises for the entire video and ended up giving it a 3 I'd get it, but a 9? Honestly. How long before you all start saying the games gamespot review deserve a 15/10 and anything else is garbage? 9 is a solid score. Calm down.
Might want to mention something that's bad if you're going to take away points, no? Not familiar with GameSpot's reviews but I bet they gave other games a 10, where faults could easily be spotted. Doesn't matter in the end, but at least have a reason if you're gonna make it your career.
ign reasons were stupid..all you have to do to get a 10 on ign is to make them cry..they didnt make any mention of the combat mechanics and the intigration of the open world,upgrading system etc they were talking about how emotional the journey is, how cool the moves are and how great the graphics is..that shallow and stale. this review is way better dispite the 9 it is more convincing.
Big respect to Sony and Nintendo for still making the games I buy my consoles for...SINGLE PLAYER GAMES! AND NO MICRO TRANSACTIONS!!!😁👍🏻✊️ Microtransactions would stop me buying these games.
I played the first hour of this game (and the final few minutes). It surely deserves a 10. Felt like TLOU meets GOW in a new setting. *Spoilers* - the last boss battle is actually pretty dope.
They had sent a Beta (sort of) it'll get the download on 20th April. I had gone to PSX 2017 and filled the form of a free developer, so I got a free beta copy of the game.
burakku 666 I have an Xbox lol. But dont use it because I get better 4k on PC Cuz i dont have a 4k TV. PlayStation has 4k too moron its just not consistent. The difference is so slight you dont even notice. But for PlayStation releasing the best top rated games consistently from 1996. That's why PlayStation people love it. Because gow isnt available on PC or any other platform. Only PlayStation. PlayStation has some of the best exclusives. Much like Nintendo. Xbox has gear of war and halo that's pretty much it which arnt even exclusives considering how you can play every single Xbox game on PC.... 4k was already achieved on PC for years? Its not a big deal its on console. And you do realize Xbox is Microsoft. A technology company that focuses primarily on software development and editing software like Microsoft word and office etc... More made for better software and technology. And Sony focuses on, and I quote " consumer and professional electronics, gaming, entertainment and financial services" So pure games, Elevtronics like Sony speakers and headphones, Tv's. More made for entertainment and accessories. Its embarrassing how Sony can make a console that's even close to Microsoft but yet still release its only games along with it. There's been more xbox consoles and remakes than PlayStation. So they even had more consoles to upgrade better and better. Its obvious why they can run solid 4k now. And it didn't from the start. Xbox didn't have true 4k when released. It needed a big patch update. Which is what Microsoft specializes in. Software updates.... So xbox is just a console. You can play on xbox, PC. Whatever. But PlayStation is its own thing and entertainment console with its own games.
I am so glad that Kratos got the chance to be a father once again. I am so glad Sana Monica chose this path with Kratos. Although, I'd like to see what may come next. Maybe a god of war focused soully on Kratos' son. Yeah, I'd play that.
They had nothing bad to say, only praise. So I assume people are acting like they should give a score according to what they thought? Unless they found something to be bad in the game, and just chose to not put it in their review? Then what was the point of the review. You try to review a game and give it a 2/10 or something and then you go on and praise it to high heavens. People will notice. (made the example more extreme so your limited brain could follow the point)
This is absurd. I've legitimately never played a game in my life that is a more obvious 10/10. Sometimes you guys just miss the mark. I realize 9 is still great, but please explain to me what stopped this from being a 10?
This really reminds me of Logan. Years older than the young, quick, elegant antihero we all know and love, who has put up the mantle of being a legend but must once again fight to protect his child. Both Logan and God of War portrays a more mature story, not just in graphic content, but in its storytelling. Both are more grounded and realistically brutal than their predecessors, and both prove to be the portrayals that we will always think of first when remembering long after their stories ultimately end. Plus both Logan and Kratos have Mel Gibson beards, and that’s a badass detail on its on
The second we first see the serpent snake I think that's when I realized just how truly immersive this game was And it's such a simple first scene with the serpent snake but dahm cool And the first fight at the cabin really establishes what you will come across in the game
You are the jester for not owning both. I like playing exclusives like God of War or Zelda on PS4 Pro and Switch while I play games like Doom, Tomb Raider or Rare Replay on Xbox One X or PC.
KGORE Because the Xbox also has some exclusives, it has BY FAR the better version of every multiplat game, it has backwards compability and it has a 4K blueray player. Get real, poor boi.
Felix S. Get real okay that's why Xbox is losing to playstation by more than 45 million consoles.. Let's get real here no one wants Xbox and playstation is getting all the love because people want games!
No, you are losing :) Because you are not able to choose. You have to stick with your PS4 (I assume vanilla^^). Everyone who is a real gamer excludes himself from this idiotic fanboy shit talk and purchases all 3 consoles. You miss games like Rare Replay, Cuphead, Ori 1+2. Killer Instinct, Sea of Thieves, Forza, Gears of War and everything the E3 will deliver (I think Perfect Dark 3 and Fable are likely). You miss the best versions of Doom, Wolfenstein, Tomb Raider, Far Cry, Dark Souls, the Witcher, Fallout etc. The PS4 as much as I love my Pro for its exclusives is the far WORSE choice for everything which is not exclusive. You lose, boy. You miss a better gaming experience. But stick to your ignorant and childish attitude. You are poor and pathetic and I know you would buy an Xbox if you could. That is why you have to defame it: To make yourself feel secure with your purchase :) Have a nice one kiddo ;)
I have just finished playing this amazing game n i hv some advice/opinion suggestion for the future games obviously if they make it.. 1. Bring back nudity. 2. Remove hacksilver or whatever called treasure curreny and keep the upgrading of armour n wespons intact widely open till the end.( No need for grinding in order to get best weapons,armour n other enchantments. ) 3. Bring back auto replenish green souls(life), red souls(xp) and yellow orange souls (rage) after killing an enemy. 4.more interesting side quest n rewards. 5. Lesser use of repetitive enemy (more new enemy variety ) untill end. 6.Bring back □□◇ 7. More cool bosses fighting(like in the end). 8.push up more violence and gore. That's all folks....
We don't need nudity, or more gore I don't see how that would help the game. Also, I never grinded in the game, I just went along the story with no problems. The only thing they could improve is less puzzles
We all love you cory barlog. Taking 10 years to build a character and then changing him is not a bad thing at all this is how life works even we change according to our age and become more sensible... I have completed the game and there is fucking hype everywhere in this game. Those you are complaining about his blades just play the game and you will know why he left them .... Respect the developer who is not robbing you with microtranscations !!!!
The best looking games this console generation: Infamous Second Son (came out 2014 and still looks good and was a bundle game for ps4 launch that showed just the start of how much the graphics improved for next generation) Horizon Zero Dawn Uncharted 4 Battlefield 1 Battlefront 1 and 2 Dice Now God of War Next games that should be on their level: Spider man ps4 Cyberpunk 2077 The Last of Us 2 Death Stranding Ghost of Tsushima Division 2 (hopefully...)
8/10 and heres the reason why. Combat was not near my expectations! We've been robbed out of jumping option aswell. Camera angle was the biggest problem for me because I found myself staring at kratos back and couldnt enjoy the beautiful landscapes that game offered. The graphics are good but the world just didnt feel alive because there wasnt enough folks in it. I didnt like the healthbar of enemies (not sure if theres was an option to turn it off). Theres alot of things I liked about the game.
As a God of War fanboy 8/10 is a fine score. And you can turn off enemy health bars in the UI menu. You can actually turn off the entire UI which may help in enjoying the landscapes more.
The only things I've seen people complain about is the enemy variety and combat, which doesnt make much sense to me since I keep seeing new enemies and just like the older games you have to upgrade to get more abilities which makes combat a lot more fun :P
Wow, your a good troll. Its 4k HDR 30 fps, or 1080p 60fps HDR on the PRO. It's 1080P 30 fps HDR on the OG PS4. Either way you play it, its gonna be good.
What are you looking forward to most in the new God of War?
Viewing it on RUclips since i don't own a PS4 :P
Let see which god I'm gonna kill this time.
Xbox fanboy tears
GameSpot Literally everything.
Chain of olympus back
I love that Sony and Nintendo are still making single player experiences this great like it should!
Sony, Nintendo, Rockstar, CD Projekt RED and Bethesda are all into making high quality single player experiences and thats why they're the best devs tbh. They all know how to make excellent games and continue to build on there already solid foundations.
Bethesda? All they do is make a somewhat interesting world, the modders are the one's that make all the content.
Single player GAMES. Stop calling everything an "experience." It doesn't make sense. That's a trend that needs to stop.
Bethesda sucks ass
TroutButter I don’t understand how can you get so mad about a statement that’s actually said correctly? Game, experience, GOW looks like the whole package is made flawlessly and calling it an experience isn’t so wrong... get off the internet if you are offended that easily.
Xbox: i'm sorry
Playstation: do not be sorry, be better
Sorry for what, not making movies and the ability to run native 4k games. Nothing to be sorry about.
Do not be sorry, be sony
PC: calm down peasants and stop holding gaming back
Ravel Hidersunk are you actually serious? Sea of thieves with its 4 out of 10 review scores, really what a clown you are
barry morgan i prefered story driven games over endless repetitive multiplayer game. Everyone had their own taste
Summary of the comment section :
- Only 9? IGN gave it it 10.
- Xbox gamers being salty
TCMFGamesOFFICIAL why salty? Because of this interactive movie? Hahahahaha
It's just a movie with same chained combos at least older GoW had different weapon to change the gameplay ur playing this for the story/movie..
Mr. AmazYn but I just buy a console to play games not interactive movies you know that's why the previous God of War games are better than this. But Sony keep making single player games because of their shitty online service that's why
Mr. AmazYn there are other weapons in the game....
I'm not one to participate in the fanboy wars but wow there really are A LOT of salty Xboxers posting comments.....
If anyone is still on the fence about buying or playing this, dont be. Just do it. Its fucking incredible.
😖 dammit now i can't buy it because i don't wanna succumb to peer pressure
I was on the fence for the longest time just cuz I never played a God of War game so I didn't know what the experience was like. Now that I'm playing it I see why it won GOTY. This is one of the most breathtaking achievements of a videogame I've ever played.
I was hesitant to buy this game but ended up getting it and so love it one of my favorite games to this day
Why not give it 10/ 10 if it doenst have negatives?
Edit: guys.... relax, it was just a question. No need to start the fanboy wars 57. 😕
Because this work of art is apparently equally good as Assassin's Creed Origins. Fucking bullshit.
He mentioned a couple of things that were a bit lacking, notably the final boss battle. To get a 10/10 a game should be perfect. Are we going to start acting like a 9/10 is bad now?
Are you using selective hearing because they definitely mentioned a weak ending battle and an annoying character.
DevilGames It has to be made by Nintendo to get that extra point
flysly no game is perfect.
9/10 - Gamespot
10/10 - IGN
Holy shit im fucking hyped.
Easy Allies - 10/10
Game Informer - 9.8/10
Happy Console Gamer 9.5/10
This is a masterpiece
Josue Leyva Fuck dis shit!! I am gonna burn my Xbox right now!
3/10 Feminist frequency
Hype leads to anger. Anger leads to hate. Hate leads to suffering.
I disagree about the final boss comment. I was left wanting more because it was so damn epic. I’m glad they left me wanting more. Cause it only hypes me up to fight those real GoW power houses to come
Been playing God of War since I was 14. Can't wait to play the new one, as a 26 year old.
Joseph Ocasio we are the same age then :D i played the first one too when i was 14 and now cant wait to play this one when i am 26 years old
damn, I already have that one.
haha nobody cares that you won't be playing, this is made by the same team that was responsible for the original god of war games, who are you to say its not kratos?
Joseph Ocasio same age as well played the first at 14 😂
Joseph Ocasio it's one of if not the best game franchise out there.played the 1st when it came out I'm now 40 and still happily play when I can.👍🏻had mine pre ordered since February.
Meanwhile at the Xbox community: “ but Sea of thieves is good in its own way, sure it lacks content now for a $60 game but I’m sure more content is coming and it will make all the Sony fans switch sides”
don't forget... ''but pubg is better than fortnite''
Vergil
Don't know about all that but it is a very fun game no doubt. Just wish it didn't have to be online to play. Internet isn't always stable or available. Best pirate game I have ever played.
try blackwake if you have pc :) .
That feel when you have an Xbox and a PC but no PS4 to play this masterpiece 😭😭
Why you have xbox if you have pc
Today God Of War was officially announced for PC. Date january 14, 2022
PlayStation greatness since 97
YUNGGETPAPER 94
I got my ps1 in 94
wayne1da i got my ps1 since 2002. Yeah i know, i was a bit late since i was 10 years old and then i got ps2 in 2004
Raja's VLOGS I got my ps1 in 1998, but any true Sony fan should know Sony has dominated the industry since their entrance in 1994
94/95 with porsche boxer challenge lol ??? My mind is fried with to many drugs amd games
94 on metacritic great
Artoras mama mia
You should follow opencritic instead. Way better
Greg K wow. their avgs are different by a point or 2. You people have sense of scale if a 1 point difference equals way better
ArsenicSteel00 it’s also a better layout
95 Now
9/10 Too many gods
*Too much War (ter)
There's no gods in this I don't think
Of course there are gods in this. Honestly, if you don't know what you're talking about then just be quiet. Spreading disinformation around :/
Mr. AmazYn ohhh there are lol I just watched a review and luckily did not get spoiled by which ones are in it
But I'm sure there will be seqauls that will continue the norse adventure
And then they will go onto Egyptian and then mayan and so on
Jason Rabeiro I definitely said I don't think so where am I said I'm knowing for sure... so far from a friend whos been playing he's yet to fight a GOD...
"It's not made by Nintendo" 9/10 lol
More people need to give this a thumbs up. 😂
Stathis Kafidas ikr! I think gamespot should have given this masterpiece a 10/10 instead of giving it a 9.
they gave uncharted 4 a 10.
Nintendo’s last few games have scored way below 10
AdamHallDeathPunch why should they when it’s not even true
Been playing since I was 6. I am now 19 (Shout out to my mom for not knowing how to read the game rating before buying back then😂🙌) Proud fan.
Day one buy.
I am doing a Day 0 buy
Bought it Day 2. Close enough.
ALL ABOARD THE HYPE TRAIN
ACVideos. 😁😁😁 forreal tho

The camera in cinematic scenes remind me of Kojima's work.
Yeah. I'm surprised not many games use this style of cutscene filming as well. I'm not sure about the actual cuts, since in games, it can be a lot easier to hide them and make it look like one continuous shot. But this game and MGS5 (potentially Death Stranding too) showed how well the overall presentation can look like if they do it properly.
Fuck kojima for fighting with Konami.
I noticed that as well. I think it's because the floating camera more accurately mimics how we experience games. There are no cuts, we just move the camera with a control stick. I think it creates a far more immersive experience.
zombie Aw come on don't make that comparison, this game is actually good.
I know the odds of this are slim, but this older Kratos reminds me so much of Old Man Logan. He fights smarter now because he’s older, but in no way does that mean he’s weaker. Imagine a Logan video game with the same physics! That would be crazy!

You see Microsoft? This is how you make a console exclusive. Learn from your mistakes. (caugh) (Sea of Thieves)
Forza Horizon 4? yes, it's a Microsoft Exclusive
@100 subs with no video Gears and Halo and maybe Cuphead and Ori because they both might go on Switch or streamed on Switch
@Yvng Trill What about it?
@Yvng Trill True but Xbox One X is way powerful than PS4 Pro
Stfu
Master piece
Khalid Wani no master piece but very good
Dan oz It is high, if you play it on the hardest difficulty. They even said that if you pick the hardest difficulty you can't change it back once you realize you're not doing so well. You'd have to start a new game to get out of the hardset difficulty and I LOVE them for that. Lol

Master Chief*
Lol please don't kill me
kiril lert nice joke......meta score 95
Your witcher 3 has only 91
It doesn't deserve a 10 because it isn't called God of Zelda or Mario of War.
Fábio Pinto
Yea That’s why they gave Skyward Sword 7.5 and Super Mario 3D Land 8.0......
Almighty Nintendo Pharaoh PlayStation fanboys get so upset when their hyped games don’t get perfect scores
J-Squeezy because we have high standards and expect quality
Almighty Nintendo Pharaoh I don't doubt that BOTW and Mario Odyssey are great games. The thing is that when a Nintendo game is very good, it gets over praised. Why do those games deserve a 97 on metacritic and The Witcher 3, for example, 92? They are all great games, groundbreaking and all have their flaws. So why the discrepancy?

Kratos punched a boulder with his fucking bare hands, that's metal af
Honestly I played all 6 god of war games that is nothing compared to the old games so I wssent impressed xD
kiba whitewolf Yeah, I played the other games too and it doesn't really compare but still it's pretty cool lol xD
I think kratos cuting open cronos from the inside out and hereing him beg for mercy to a man the size of a magot on a tittan is more bad ass hahah
kiba whitewolf Yeah dude that part was sick, I also loved the Hades battle that one was so gruesome and awesome
Haha yes it was and the Hercules boss battle when he beats herc's face to a pulp till he is faceless xD
God of war games will never let you down not even once
True but accension ewwwwwwe

And Uncharted series also

Hell yeah!
mrfuzzybrows hardly be called a master piece is it was that, go and play sea of shit and stop being a jealous Xbox fanboy
😂😂😂
mrfuzzybrows salty😂
mrfuzzybrows well it seems to be getting good reviews, maybe Microsoft can learn a thing thing or two on how to make good exclusives. I'm just saying I'm a PC player, but I still buy Playstation for it's amazing exclusives.
Turn that 9 to a 10
No way 9 is perfect. I'd say turn Yakuza 0 and 6 to a 10
Cramp field of view, terrible experience on hard mode.
I was never interested in the God of War series. However with a more mature story telling I think I can say "I'm in" for this version.
im about 6 hours in and i can definitely say it is starting to feel like a masterpiece
The best walking simulator
@@SBDikshit-t4t after all this time i hate to admit i agree with you lol GoW 1-3 were significantly better imo
@@StraightEdgeAlexxx31 I hope in Ragnarok we get better and cool boss fights like odin thor etc
@@SBDikshit-t4t nah, that's Death Stranding.
@@StraightEdgeAlexxx31 would you say that it's better than RE7?
Xbox fan boys are crying right now
they are crying up a sea.... .....of thieves (sorry i had to go there)
Not me I have both systems. Grow up.
Tamer Ciftci sorry what thrilling first party multiplayer games does ps4 have, none oh to bad!
+Tamer Ciffci
If your whole identity lies in what piece of plastic you bought, you REALLY need to rethink your life. Some of us just buys them all. That way we can play ALL the good games out there. So just own all the systems and a good gaming PC and you're set.
Tamer Ciftci haha overly defensive ps4 fan found in the comment section, don't get to offended bro.
Rolled credits. You are totally wrong about the final boss. That shit was EPIC.
It really isn't, even the hydra boss of god of war 1 is much more epic.
It's not even close the first
in memory of Xbox One
Xbox : I'm sorry.
Kratos : Do not be sorry. Be better
in memory of all losers who do not own all consoles
Press “X” to pay your respects
Felix S. Fuck off not everyone is fucking rich like you
Jack Snack Than that is your own fault fucking loser ;)
Along with the return of the Blades of Chaos a moment that I thought really impacted the story was during Atreus's brat-phase after the deaths of Thor's sons and we got to see Kratos trying to be a stern yet caring father when he tries to teach his god/giant hybrid son that killing deities has grave consequences basically this iconic scene.
Kratos: "What we just did can not be taken lightly."
Atreus: "What did we do wrong we won they lost that's how it works."
Kratos: "There are consequences for killing a god."
Atreus: "How do you know? How do you know?!"
You can tell how much love, time, effort & thought they put into this game. Such a great experience I've had with this game.
Another nail in Xboner's coffin, lol. PS4 is unstoppable.
SuperWheatley are u 5
Thomas Yelton no I'm in my 30s
I’m not one for console wars but please. The competition the PS4 has dealt with is the Wii U and Xbox 1 for the first 4 years of its life span. Nintendo dragged its nuts all over Sony and Microsoft in 2017. 2018 will definitely be hard to beat for Sony at least unless they throw out a bombshell like Metroid Prime 4 coming out this year or Smash being a hit.
Where Sony benefits is they are a massive media conglomerate and have access to numerous funds and intellectual property rights. Microsoft is more of a computer based technology and web integration corporation so pretty much, when Nintendo is down, Sony is almost guaranteed to dominate the market.
SuperWheatley then please dont talk like one
Hahah cry and beg for forgiveness xbox fans
THANK YOU SONY SANTA MONICA FOR THIS MASTERPIECE!!!
Yeah the best walking simulator
👑SONY👑
Congrats to Cory and his team 🥳 you've made my favourite game of all time
Interesting use of the word Reboot at the end there. Does this reset the franchise like Tomb Raider did?
NO, more of a re-imagining I guess..cause everything that came before is still very much canon and not just shoved aside. It's just a new perspective,a more imaginative one.
The soundtrack is unbelievable and the That first level is the best level in a video game I have ever seen. For me this is not just a must play but a system seller! For me 10/10 and my personal favourite game ever and I collect for nearly every system and have nearly 2500 games in my collection
I think you guys should have given this masterpiece a 10/10 instead of giving it a 9.
This will be great on the Playstation 5 :)
I don't understand any frustration people have with this review. If he sang praises for the entire video and ended up giving it a 3 I'd get it, but a 9? Honestly. How long before you all start saying the games gamespot review deserve a 15/10 and anything else is garbage? 9 is a solid score. Calm down.
Might want to mention something that's bad if you're going to take away points, no? Not familiar with GameSpot's reviews but I bet they gave other games a 10, where faults could easily be spotted.
Doesn't matter in the end, but at least have a reason if you're gonna make it your career.
9/10 ??!!! What blasphemy is this ???!!!
Zack Smith you JEST
warning this video shows too much of the game and can ruin some stuff
JEDI MASTER YODA thank you Master Yoda. I will make you proud.
yes!! me too! i was like ohhhh i dont wanna know what happens, they gave away too much new footage :(
Thank you haha
Ign gave it a 10 ! IGN the ones who reduce marks for too much water
Because its sony. Nothing more. Gotta get on that shill-train with all the other sycophants.
awwww, are you mad Xbox fanboy ? fucking pathetic, just accept that Sony has better games !
ign reasons were stupid..all you have to do to get a 10 on ign is to make them cry..they didnt make any mention of the combat mechanics and the intigration of the open world,upgrading system etc they were talking about how emotional the journey is, how cool the moves are and how great the graphics is..that shallow and stale. this review is way better dispite the 9 it is more convincing.
Ign only cares about money, their reviews are all shit
This time I guess the water is just right.
Big respect to Sony and Nintendo for still making the games I buy my consoles for...SINGLE PLAYER GAMES! AND NO MICRO TRANSACTIONS!!!😁👍🏻✊️ Microtransactions would stop me buying these games.
Definite candidate for Game of the Year. Can't wait to play it.
It won GOTY 2018
This game is amazing, should be a 10!!
I played the first hour of this game (and the final few minutes). It surely deserves a 10. Felt like TLOU meets GOW in a new setting. *Spoilers* - the last boss battle is actually pretty dope.
how did you get the game ?
They had sent a Beta (sort of) it'll get the download on 20th April. I had gone to PSX 2017 and filled the form of a free developer, so I got a free beta copy of the game.
cool
RIPP XBOX ONE
Phoenix Jonathan how?
burakku 666
No new exclusives which is why people buy games.
You can play every single Xbox game on pc
K2_SLAYER_ and where is the problem? 🙄
K2_SLAYER_ at least we can play games with 4k resolution while you delusional pony fanboys play your interactive movies with downgrade so what?
burakku 666
I have an Xbox lol.
But dont use it because I get better 4k on PC Cuz i dont have a 4k TV.
PlayStation has 4k too moron its just not consistent.
The difference is so slight you dont even notice.
But for PlayStation releasing the best top rated games consistently from 1996.
That's why PlayStation people love it.
Because gow isnt available on PC or any other platform.
Only PlayStation.
PlayStation has some of the best exclusives.
Much like Nintendo.
Xbox has gear of war and halo that's pretty much it which arnt even exclusives considering how you can play every single Xbox game on PC....
4k was already achieved on PC for years?
Its not a big deal its on console.
And you do realize Xbox is Microsoft.
A technology company that focuses primarily on software development and editing software like Microsoft word and office etc...
More made for better software and technology.
And Sony focuses on, and I quote " consumer and professional electronics, gaming, entertainment and financial services"
So pure games, Elevtronics like Sony speakers and headphones, Tv's.
More made for entertainment and accessories.
Its embarrassing how Sony can make a console that's even close to Microsoft but yet still release its only games along with it.
There's been more xbox consoles and remakes than PlayStation.
So they even had more consoles to upgrade better and better.
Its obvious why they can run solid 4k now.
And it didn't from the start.
Xbox didn't have true 4k when released.
It needed a big patch update.
Which is what Microsoft specializes in.
Software updates....
So xbox is just a console.
You can play on xbox, PC.
Whatever.
But PlayStation is its own thing and entertainment console with its own games.
Thanks for spoiling the game for no reason....why couldn't you just stick to reviewing it?
H I know right like he talked about the ending & I think even showed a bit of it, like wtf
The tagline "Greatness Awaits" really lives up to its expectation year after year with games like God of War and Horizon Zero Dawn.
I am so glad that Kratos got the chance to be a father once again. I am so glad Sana Monica chose this path with Kratos. Although, I'd like to see what may come next. Maybe a god of war focused soully on Kratos' son. Yeah, I'd play that.
This review talks about the ending battle a bit too much. The reviewer could have been more vague.
People acting like a 9 is a bad score...What?!
Vorkai Cyboulsky yeah i dont get it either. Oh well
Deserves a 11/10
They had nothing bad to say, only praise. So I assume people are acting like they should give a score according to what they thought? Unless they found something to be bad in the game, and just chose to not put it in their review? Then what was the point of the review. You try to review a game and give it a 2/10 or something and then you go on and praise it to high heavens. People will notice. (made the example more extreme so your limited brain could follow the point)
I'm surprised they gave it a 9 when people like IGN gave it a 10 😂
It feels like the game wasnt planned to be god of war initially,, but on the road the slapped the god of war logo an call it a day
That note on baldurs last boss battle was understandable if youre on easy mode. Try playing it in gmgow and im sure youll say otherwise
This is absurd. I've legitimately never played a game in my life that is a more obvious 10/10. Sometimes you guys just miss the mark. I realize 9 is still great, but please explain to me what stopped this from being a 10?
Meanwhile xbone one fans crying in the corner
Techie ID I don’t want this game anyways not my type of game
Or you could have both console and play all the exclusive games
We got Forza Horizon 4, the best racing game for Microsoft Exclusive of 2018.
@Yvng Trill Okay?
Welp just pre ordered it!!
This really reminds me of Logan. Years older than the young, quick, elegant antihero we all know and love, who has put up the mantle of being a legend but must once again fight to protect his child. Both Logan and God of War portrays a more mature story, not just in graphic content, but in its storytelling. Both are more grounded and realistically brutal than their predecessors, and both prove to be the portrayals that we will always think of first when remembering long after their stories ultimately end. Plus both Logan and Kratos have Mel Gibson beards, and that’s a badass detail on its on
9/10 is a fair score. Only PS fanboys/girls are mad.
It needs more microtransactions and lootboxes
Really ? Do you know happen to Battlefront 2 ?
Hải Lân Lưu I was ironic...
Y'all just can't give it a 10 can you? You gotta laugh at the bullshit 😂😂😂😂
Dracks07 Nobody's forcing u to buy this... So get the fuck off... There are ppl who are hyped for it... U play with plastic
Lol. 9/10 and 10/10 is pretty much the same. Stop being such a number horny.
//Orange Sky// I'm a huge GOW fan so chill the fuck out. I'm just saying that the game deserves a 10
Jakob Wångö Are you saying that an A and an A+ are the same?
Dracks07 alright
Ok Sony im buying a ps4 pro thanks to this game and other upcoming storytelling games only on Sonys platform.
+1
Sony is basically making the games I dreamed about when I was a kid discovering the wonders of 3d games on playstation 1.
The second we first see the serpent snake
I think that's when I realized just how truly immersive this game was
And it's such a simple first scene with the serpent snake but dahm cool
And the first fight at the cabin really establishes what you will come across in the game
Sony still king while xbox is still the jester.
You are the jester for not owning both. I like playing exclusives like God of War or Zelda on PS4 Pro and Switch while I play games like Doom, Tomb Raider or Rare Replay on Xbox One X or PC.
Felix S. Why the fuck would I own both when Xbox has nothing to offer. Get real.
KGORE
Because the Xbox also has some exclusives, it has BY FAR the better version of every multiplat game, it has backwards compability and it has a 4K blueray player. Get real, poor boi.
Felix S. Get real okay that's why Xbox is losing to playstation by more than 45 million consoles.. Let's get real here no one wants Xbox and playstation is getting all the love because people want games!
No, you are losing :) Because you are not able to choose. You have to stick with your PS4 (I assume vanilla^^). Everyone who is a real gamer excludes himself from this idiotic fanboy shit talk and purchases all 3 consoles. You miss games like Rare Replay, Cuphead, Ori 1+2. Killer Instinct, Sea of Thieves, Forza, Gears of War and everything the E3 will deliver (I think Perfect Dark 3 and Fable are likely). You miss the best versions of Doom, Wolfenstein, Tomb Raider, Far Cry, Dark Souls, the Witcher, Fallout etc.
The PS4 as much as I love my Pro for its exclusives is the far WORSE choice for everything which is not exclusive. You lose, boy. You miss a better gaming experience. But stick to your ignorant and childish attitude. You are poor and pathetic and I know you would buy an Xbox if you could. That is why you have to defame it: To make yourself feel secure with your purchase :) Have a nice one kiddo ;)
9/10... unsubscribing
Stupid ass fanboys these days
Best Game I have ever played!!!!
H Checo play same games
Finished it last week,This game gotta get a 11 out of 10
How good does Kratos’ voice sound. Excellent. Away to get this game tomorrow. Hope it’s as good as it looks
Well seeing this I remember ghost of sparta. I loved that game on PSP looked and played really well
Im calling bullshit! No negatives but it gets a 9, not that that's bad but, really??. I guess it should of had a Nintendo logo on it to get that 10
He said that the final boss was underwhelming and that it was longer than it needed to be. He literally said that.
I can't Control the hype anymore 😑 😂
Why not give God of War a 10/10 if your reviewer found ZERO negatives?
Odd...
I have just finished playing this amazing game n i hv some advice/opinion suggestion for the future games obviously if they make it..
1. Bring back nudity.
2. Remove hacksilver or whatever called treasure curreny and keep the upgrading of armour n wespons intact widely open till the end.( No need for grinding in order to get best weapons,armour n other enchantments. )
3. Bring back auto replenish green souls(life), red souls(xp) and yellow orange souls (rage) after killing an enemy.
4.more interesting side quest n rewards.
5. Lesser use of repetitive enemy (more new enemy variety ) untill end.
6.Bring back □□◇
7. More cool bosses fighting(like in the end).
8.push up more violence and gore.
That's all folks....
We don't need nudity, or more gore I don't see how that would help the game. Also, I never grinded in the game, I just went along the story with no problems. The only thing they could improve is less puzzles
@@henryvincent5188 Because it's been tradition of God of war to have all those content..
@@Nickisorochi still doesn't make the game good
The real winner here is Xbox because they have “game of the generation” sea of thieves while we have to settle for god of war... lol
Showtimekid hahahahahahahaha
Showtimekid haha get burnol u noob playstation wins every time & this time it just killed xbox
hope you know i was trolling...
How is this not a 10?
Why did I buy an Xbox?
Devon McCormack bro go sell the xbox & buy new playstation console and fast pre order God of war,
Mustaqeem Shaikh Why would you trade an Xbox for one game? Thats just moronic
because your chair wasn't in perfect balance?
Do not be sorry, be better" buy a PS4 NOW
Because of their false advertisment.
We all love you cory barlog.
Taking 10 years to build a character and then changing him is not a bad thing at all this is how life works even we change according to our age and become more sensible...
I have completed the game and there is fucking hype everywhere in this game.
Those you are complaining about his blades just play the game and you will know why he left them ....
Respect the developer who is not robbing you with microtranscations !!!!
The best looking games this console generation:
Infamous Second Son (came out 2014 and still looks good and was a bundle game for ps4 launch that showed just the start of how much the graphics improved for next generation)
Horizon Zero Dawn
Uncharted 4
Battlefield 1
Battlefront 1 and 2 Dice
Now God of War
Next games that should be on their level:
Spider man ps4
Cyberpunk 2077
The Last of Us 2
Death Stranding
Ghost of Tsushima
Division 2 (hopefully...)
Oh!!! The Background Score 😍😍🔥
BEAUTiful 😍😍😍😍👌
never watch a GameSpot review...they showcase so much stuff! total spoiled
IT'S A "MASTHAPEACE" BABYYYYY !!!
8/10 and heres the reason why. Combat was not near my expectations! We've been robbed out of jumping option aswell. Camera angle was the biggest problem for me because I found myself staring at kratos back and couldnt enjoy the beautiful landscapes that game offered. The graphics are good but the world just didnt feel alive because there wasnt enough folks in it. I didnt like the healthbar of enemies (not sure if theres was an option to turn it off). Theres alot of things I liked about the game.
As a God of War fanboy 8/10 is a fine score.
And you can turn off enemy health bars in the UI menu. You can actually turn off the entire UI which may help in enjoying the landscapes more.
The only things I've seen people complain about is the enemy variety and combat, which doesnt make much sense to me since I keep seeing new enemies and just like the older games you have to upgrade to get more abilities which makes combat a lot more fun :P
Horizon is far more boring compare to this how can this be 9 but not 10
XBox Just had Coma
I keep wondering why Xbox fans come here to comment if u like Xbox so much why even watch this video... To see how better PlayStation is? 😂
tonerogarubs Gaj how much better SMH
Aaron Mcclure way better
I was talking major shit until I got to the part with Athena. Fucking unbelievable. Definitely game of the year
souls elite I see so your sorry now. Well, do not be sorry, be better.
Will there be a 4K 30fps and 1080 60fps options?
Yes, I will Buy it, play an exclusive Game in Ps4 Pro with 4K 120fps is absolutely Great. I feel like VIP Member ^_^
120fps?? game is locked at 30 fps ps4 and ps4 pro, confirmed by the developers.
And Gamespot uploads in 60fps lulz
yea its not 4k either only 1440p you may think I'm hating because I'm an xbox fan but that's actually the pixel count
Wow, your a good troll. Its 4k HDR 30 fps, or 1080p 60fps HDR on the PRO. It's 1080P 30 fps HDR on the OG PS4. Either way you play it, its gonna be good.
Gio Garza i wish i can play in 120fps 😀😀
(Ign) "AND YOU GET A 10"
"AND YOU GET A 10"
"AND YOU GET A 10"
"AND YOU GET A 10"
Zack Smith uhh what ? Lol
I’m getting sick and tired of all these Skyrim rereleases.
Boy.
9 perfect score for this game. IGN just gave it a 10 beacuse they felt obligated cuz Switch is riding the 10 train for good reason!
I hope as an easter egg like 100% completion you can get his iconic chain blades. That would be a nice touch for fans of the older games.
