God of War movie a step in 'bold' new direction - Report

@DiamondDM13 Diamond, he has point even though I hate fanboys. Sony did attempt to make games to compete with Halo(Killzone & Resistance). Both failed, so he has a point even though I don't like fanboyism

"According to the film's writers Patrick Melton and Marcus Dunstan (who previously wrote Saw IV, Saw V, Saw VI, and Saw 3D)"

Your God of War movie is being written by the guys who wrote for the Saw movies.

Just let that sink in for a minute.

@PSYCHOXBOXTRUTH

LOL your crying that PS3 has a lot more exclusives than your PsychoBOX 360..... Lets say it as ours since even i own a 360 and a PS3....Own both and you will see the Difference

Apart from gears theres nothing so interesting or unique in this Platform.

How about BILL GOLDBERG as Kratos

And Kratos looks up at Ares and says... "You wanna play a little game?"

Yeah, those are the exact movies I think of when I think "God of War". The Saw series. I was watching Titanic earlier and I had to think, as Rose was floating on that piece of debris clearly large enough for two people, "I wonder what Titanic 2 would be like with Uwe Boll." No.

No. No. No.

There are just some things that don't mesh and Hollywood has been learning the hard way for two decades.

You can say that all you want, but we'll see if you can back it up on film. It could be pretty cool in the right hands.

As a fan of the Saw franchise I'm hugely excited. Just don't make it like Saw V. That was without a doubt the worse movie in the genre. Saw 3D was good but I didn't like the ending. IV and VI were the best in the franchise.

Now I know why Saw went from good to sucking in comparision to the first 3.

"In a bold new direction"

You mean you will actually make this movie good. That would be pretty bold.

I'm surprised nobody suggested Vin Diesel as Kratos...

@PSYCHOXBOXTRUTH ROFL can u make me LAUGH more plz

Ohh yah I hope it be something

@PSYCHOXBOXTRUTH XBOX is better than PS3 you say? Oh noooeeessss!What will we all duuuu. Oh nuuuuuuuu....

I'm not convinced these are the writers they should be pursuing...

Of course, games to movies get announced every month, but hardly any of them release.

chris nolan directed, co produced by quitin tarrentino and eli roth, and written by david jaffee....(all mispelled lol) and i say success

@PSYCHOXBOXTRUTH someones mad that mommy got them an xbox... Cant wait to play my some Game of the year winner Ps3 exclusives myself....

@DiamondDM13 @PSYCHOXBOXTRUTH If he was a Nintendo fanboy, the innovation part would be true.

@PSYCHOXBOXTRUTH wow such hatred bro..

You lost me at "who previously wrote Saw IV, Saw V, Saw VI, and Saw 3D".....Im gonna have to pass now... Well could be worse ---could be Uwe Boll.

Is it just me or is there like a million video game movies that are in production but never end up real.

I just hope they dont remove the blood

@PSYCHOXBOXTRUTH @Rivboets7 Many PS3 players are PS2 players where VARIETY is king not shooters or kids games VARIETY in the content that they develop. GOW is better than so many other games it is not even funny. GOW is nearly dare I say it perfect hack and slash game. Go ahead and try and break the game. GOOD LUCK! LOL!

I hope the difference between the God of War movie and Clash of the Titans/Immortals is that God of War ends up being good.

@PSYCHOXBOXTRUTH So Halo is here since 01, Gears since 06, both at over 3 sequels, and you call that revolutionary NEW franshises?

So, regenerating health and cover didn't exist before them... I find it hard to believe... For one, ever played Shadow Of the Colossus? 2005 PS2 exclusive game, with regenerating health... As for cover, I'm not even going to bother to look up, Colossus I knew it because I play it.

But if that is what you call innovation, damn, I'm surprised you're not a Nintendo fanboy..

@PSYCHOXBOXTRUTH what a joke...from the xbox fanboy.. suck it if cant play god of war...

@PSYCHOXBOXTRUTH

Yes we do there are quite a few PS3 players in the world.

@PSYCHOXBOXTRUTH I'm sorry but that made me laugh so hard... Microsoft is making revolutionary blockbuster franchises? Could you please name one?

Another game movie? Valve has a Half Life movie going on and I think Mass Effect does to. We need more games not movies we'll only watch a few times!

@PSYCHOXBOXTRUTH

And Xbox 360 too .

@PSYCHOXBOXTRUTH Not really, you're spreading the word of what goes on in that head of yours. I'm pretty sure people at Microsoft know PS3 exclusives are excelent games.

Sure, Halo is excelent, but first, it's a FPS, second, takes place in space. That alone is enough to leave me out of it.

That's why I need not get an Xbox since the best, and most importantly, very interesting exclusives are on PlayStation...

Although I wouldn't mind if they made a Halo movie... Could be interesting...

In the meantime, get a PS3 and satisfy that long excruciating pita of not being able to play GoW...
