You know the drill. You need to keep it here from now on. I had no idea it would be such a hot topic with such a tiny teaser!  I will send the cat at anyone who posts outside this sticky anything about God of War. Carry on, SW.

Awesome! I can't wait, but I was kind of underwhelmed by the graphics in the trailer, considering what Jaffe was saying. Though I don't really care about the visuals, I just want to finish the story.

I've never played one, though friends of mine swear by the awesomeness of God of War. Nice GIF, btw.

The graphics underwhelmed me, but seeing Kratos move like that was stunning.

GOW3 wasn't all that great looking it looked liked a more polsih xbox 1 game. However Uncharted 2 looked great. Not the best looking game for 2009 though. KZ2 and RE5 looks way better than it.

I stole it from dream-visions .. I should probably put that in my sig, lol. I've played GOW1 and I got my friends PS2 just to play GOW2 -- and he has a PS3 so I'll just end up borrowing his PS3 and beating it, because I want to see what happens at the end lol.

It was disappointing relative to the hype it was given. Looked like the male version of heavenly sword, really. but with less facial animation and only a marginally better framerate (was not 60fps). Nothing impressive, considering it's 3rd generation PS3 software. That being said, I'm sure the game will be fantastic in its own right. It's God of War. It will be great. It's just sad that it got saddled with high expectations of its visuals from the very beginning, and that will remain in the back of people's minds from now to launch.

Upon closer inspection, I'm kind of scared of that gif... Just where exactly is that fire coming from?... Just look at it as soon as he's about to leap off the rock face. Looks painful. :lol:

This.

If folks had shut up about it looking better than CGI and the like, then it would've been looked upon more charitably. It's like Ninja Gaiden 2's situation. itagaki went on and on about how Ninja Gaiden 2 was going to blow away all other Xbox 360 games in terms of visuals and when it didn't, it was harshly criticized for it.

These devs need to stop being so cocky and promising the world to gamers each time they start a new project. If anything, they should try to keep people's expectations in check. This way, if the game turns out to be phenomenal, it'll shatter everyone's expectations for it and be more well received.

Personally I think the graphics will improve. I think they just showed off the footage earlier than they would have wanted to to try and boost the PS3's momentum. I think they work on gameplay first then they polish graphics later on. For instance look at the Resistance 2 Beta and the actual game. There are some noticeable graphics improvements in the final game than in the beta. If you can notice differences from beta to final, expect bigger improvements from Alpha (or what ever GoW3 is in) to final :D

Just wanted to reply to this post really quickly from -Mad...something

"do you even know wtf your talking about, MGS4 went through a fat down grade from the TGS trailer to the final game, Halo 3 beta looked EXACT the same as halo 3 final build, uncharted look the same, and lair got a downgrade

rarely if ever games look better in the final build than the alpha
not to mention the VGA trailer was touched up and had extra AA as cutscenes do"

First off, MGS4 had a fat downgrade? WTFreak are you talking about, any proof on this?

Secondly, of course the Halo 3 BETA looked nearly like the final product...are you seriously trying to tell me GOW3 is already in Beta...if not why even mention it?

Thirdly have you ever seen the first couple of footage from Uncharted? The game looks significally better then it had looked in the past.

Lastly, Lair was a downgrade from the start.

Lol, sure sure. I still don't see how anyone can be disappointed with it. We don't even have a clue when the game is coming out and it's the first footage we've ever seen of it. The visuals will get much better, like any other game over time.

I was going to reply to this too but the thread got locked.

IGN showed a video side by side comparison with TGS trailer and the final product, and the final product looked much better.

Seriously, that trailer exuded Kratos' badassness. The only way you can be severly disappointed is if you hate the GoW series, and in that case why would you be buying this game. Or if you are the biggest graphics whore in the history of video games, in that case you must be disappointed with every game except uncharted and gears.

I have full faith in the development team. They pushed the hardware of the PS2 so well when it came to GOW1 and GOW2, to the point where I was still saying "WOW!" at God of War 2 (I was actually playing it this summer) -- hell, the game looks better than most of my Wii games. I'm sure that they'll push the PS3 hardware more than any other developer has at this point.

wow thats ironic you say that:

II_Seraphim_II - God of War 3 will be the best looking game we know of on consoles, when it is announced. You can quote me on that if you want. God of War 3 will be like the offspring of Fable2 trees and Alan Wake's jacket...thats how hardcore it will be.

CleanPlayer - Mark my words, it will look better than Killzone 2.

blazer224 - God of war games are known for pushing the playstation hardware. I wouldnt be surprised if it matches, or even supasses kz2.

Floppy_Jim - Even Killzone 2 will look like crap in comparison.

The action looked good, but I think the problem people have with the way it looks is how washed out it appears. You would imagine it can't look like that when the product is finished, but I don't see how you can deny it's underwhelming at this stage either.

It looked washed out to me, so it loses that sharp look a lot of other games have (Uncharted, Gears of War, etc).

blazer224 - God of war games are known for pushing the playstation hardware. I wouldnt be surprised if it matches, or even supasses kz2.

Floppy_Jim - Even Killzone 2 will look like crap in comparison.

I dont get it. It was statement. I said it will be the best looking game, no where did I say "I will be severly dissapointed if GoW3 isnt the best looking game ever" :|

It looked washed out to me, so it loses that sharp look a lot of other games have (Uncharted, Gears of War, etc).musicalmac
hmm. Well, I don't think I've seen the same trailer that everyone else is commenting on, so perhaps there *is* something I've missed.

[QUOTE="Haziqonfire"]Awesome! I can't wait, but I was kind of underwhelmed by the graphics in the trailer, considering what Jaffe was saying. Though I don't really care about the visuals, I just want to finish the story.The_Game21x

This.

If folks had shut up about it looking better than CGI and the like, then it would've been looked upon more charitably. It's like Ninja Gaiden 2's situation. itagaki went on and on about how Ninja Gaiden 2 was going to blow away all other Xbox 360 games in terms of visuals and when it didn't, it was harshly criticized for it.

These devs need to stop being so cocky and promising the world to gamers each time they start a new project. If anything, they should try to keep people's expectations in check. This way, if the game turns out to be phenomenal, it'll shatter everyone's expectations for it and be more well received.

Yeah, the devs really should keep there mouths shut, and let the footage speak for itself.

game looks fantastic I think people are dissapointed because (for all intents and purposes) it's just a better looking version of GOW 2 but there's only so much you can do with that art style

Remember that the devs didnt say anything. David Jaffe made the comments and he isnt working on the game.

I have full faith in the development team.

They pushed the hardware of the PS2 so well when it came to GOW1 and GOW2, to the point where I was still saying "WOW!" at God of War 2 (I was actually playing it this summer) -- hell, the game looks better than most of my Wii games.

I'm sure that they'll push the PS3 hardware more than any other developer has at this point.Haziqonfire

I've always been a "wait and see" type of person when it comes to things like this so, obviously, I can't comment on how good I think it'll eventually look. At this stage int he game, however, I'm underwhelmed.

Personally I think the graphics will improve. I think they just showed off the footage earlier than they would have wanted to to try and boost the PS3's momentum. I think they work on gameplay first then they polish graphics later on. For instance look at the Resistance 2 Beta and the actual game. There are some noticeable graphics improvements in the final game than in the beta. If you can notice differences from beta to final, expect bigger improvements from Alpha (or what ever GoW3 is in) to final :DII_Seraphim_II

As I said above, I'll wait and see. It's a very pessimistic outlook but this way, I won't be disappointed no matter what happens.

Honestly, as long as it looks up to par with other games this generation, I'll be fine. All the God of War games were about the gameplay and not really the visuals in the first place. In all honesty if they made GOWIII on the PS2 I wouldn't care, I just want to finish the story/trilogy.
