would god of war 3 be a mindless button smasher like the first 2?

That being said, thats my only problem with the game i have played ninja gaiden and devil may cry and the combos are a lot more cool and difficult to do , in this game is a repetitive button smash and button smash even in titan MODE with the boss fights is the same smash and smash i can put a rock on the gamepad and the button smasher win the day for me (i have tried succefully) is just ridiculs i hope they gave us news combos and a more versatil kratos(he is to slow) well thats my only complain about the game what you guys thing?.

Who said God of War was a button masher? From Gamespots God of War 2 review.

"It's prone to button mashing and can be easygoing.... Granted, that's only on the bottom two difficulty levels, and you'll more than likely find yourself in grave shape if you try that technique on the higher levels."

You can button mash and still beat the game.

I hope it is similar to the first 2 ....... those games are fantastic.

the first two were pure button smashers but, dont expect the third to be any different.

the graphics will obviously change for the better!

If you like dieing on the harder difficulty levels, sure.

As long as it's a fun buttom masher like the first two, I'm there!thrones

True. GoW is a great button masher, not a "mindless" button masher. I like button mashing games, it may sound silly on paper, but when you actually play it, its really fun. Its like you are taking anger management on the controller :P

In Ninja Gaiden you cannot button mash on any difficulty.

Dont care it probably going to be a borring fest like the other 2dgo71102244

I doubt it, but in NG all you needed was a few key moves to kill EVERY enemy. At least in GOW it's fighting is more brutal and badass.

desafortunatly this guy is right the game besically is smash to death everything in your path, this kind of games make backwards step for the action games.dgo71102244

Great, keep it that way, no one is going to complain, except anal fanboys.

Ninja Gaiden also happens to be one of the hardest games ever created. That is why it doesn't sell. People I've talked to say they have considered Ninja Gaiden vs. God of War and they usually choose GoW. While I agree the gameplay is far superior in NG, GoW is just more FUN to your average gamer.

NG2 DMC4 GOD3

you guys are all naive they all have the same thing in common you'll figure out about 2-3 powerful combos and you'll be using them for the entire game they are all button smashers.

Yeah sure, try button mashing God or Titan and then come back. You wouldnt get past the Hydra, the Colossus or the Basilisk. Which are the first boss in each of the 3 titles. The 2 first difficulties are a piece of cake, no troubles there, you can just do square square triangle and beat everyone. Kind of like playing NG or DMC in the first difficulties. God and Titan are leages away from that. Specially Titan which forces you to learn moves patterns and do precise dodges and counters to be able to beat whatever comes in your way.

But that said, GoW is a different game. While NG and DMC focus on flashy and cool moves, GoW, focuses on power moves, moves that feel heavier and stronger and sides that with a really strong story, unlike the other 2.

You can not button mash the hardest difficulty. I'm sorry you just can not.

I hope they keep the same formula.

Exactly. If it's fun, who cares.

dmc 4 is just DMC 1 with a visual upgrade. ninja gaiden will be good but GOD of WAR 3 will be a BEAST in its next gen debut.PSP107

You deffinitively havent played one of them. DMC was more like an action RE game, you had to aim your gun first to be able to shoot as if it was RE and the combat, though fluid pales in comparisson to DMC4 combat system. Though DMC4 falls in terms of level design and game lenght (since its only 13 different levels, 6 of them are repeated ) the combat system was evolved. Nero, though simple, has more depth than expected if you learn to do his best combos using the Max Act skill. Dante now has an evolved version of DMC3 combat system which was the best the series had in terms of gameplay.

DMC and DMC4 are on totally different frequencies. At core they are the same, demonic dude with a gun and a sword busting demons, but at gameplay they differ

so you never dodged or defended an attack?? Wow, you must be like god, or a Gameshark user.

yes but their is nothing wrong with that. its still a good story. kratos is about to kill zues. htats enough to get me to buy it.

That being said, thats my only problem with the game i have played ninja gaiden and devil may cry and the combos are a lot more cool and difficult to do , in this game is a repetitive button smash and button smash even in titan MODE with the boss fights is the same smash and smash i can put a rock on the gamepad and the button smasher win the day for me (i have tried succefully) is just ridiculs i hope they gave us news combos and a more versatil kratos(he is to slow) well thats my only complain about the game what you guys thing?.

Have you every even played a god of war game?

Good luck killing those bosses and enemies that require button combinations.

Well, if the first two were button mashers, then the third better be, since I thought they were awesome.HeroOfCows

if the first two were button mashers my mind is going to explode on number 3. in the good wayor ill just do whats in my sig

Anybody that calls GOW a button masher simply sucks at action games and/or never took time to learn the combos and how to link them together.

Plain and simple.
