i can safely say that God of War 3 will be the greatest looking game EVER. on EARTH. (besides Crysis, DAMMIT.)


MasterChief1013

Release Date of the PS2: October 26, 2000

Release Date of God of War 2: March 13, 2007

From these results, one can infer that it took 7 whole years in order to squeeze that kind of graphical capability out of the system, while still retaining a decent length and such.

Release Date of the PS3: November 11, 2006

+ 7 years = November 11, 2013. Enjoy waiting.

1) This is not a damage controll thread, if anything I am a Hermit or Sheep as they are the only things I directly own, with a 360 and PS3 in direct play distance.

2) I just had to share this with people, because you all need to see this.

Seriously, when I read the reviews for Uncharted and Mass Effect [from Gamespot], I just wasn't "wow'ed" enough to even care, after all I don't own either system to play them on. In fact, they both kind of soured my stomache into not wanting to play. Then I went on gametrailers and watched these:

Mass Effect Review

Uncharted Review

Those two video reviews actually had me WANTING to play both of these games, so much that I'm going to suggest that each person that owns the consoles next to me go actually buy these games (mostly so I can play them, lol). But in the end, I was wondering something. Why is it that Gamespot's reviews don't get me as excited about games in general as GT's do? I've always assume that it was just the fact that the videos for the Gametrailers reviews are just plain put together better, but is that really it? Maybe when a review is in text form you just focus on the negatives more or something.

So just curious, what does everyone else think? Obviously GT's reviews will never "count" here (and I couldn't care less about that), but don't they seem to be of a little bit better quality (or at least look more on the bright side of things) then the recent Gamespot reviews?

P.S. Gametrailers Rock Band review almost makes me want to shell out the money to buy it ... almost.

You know what an even worse trend emmerging is? Microtransactions. Pay $1 for a new car in a game? No thanks. Pay $10 for multiplayer maps? No thanks.

I can just see companies trying to sell their 8-10 single player only games in the future, and then "add on" multiplayer through MT's but make you pay even more money. Hooray!

[QUOTE="MetroidPrimePwn"]Hey, Crysis ends, too! What is with devs these days, ruining their games by having them not last forever...MetroidPrimePwn

WoW says ur a liar! :lol:

Ah yes, Blizzard truly is the leader of innovation.

innovation, and the leading producer of Virtual Crack.

8.5 !! Try again!

[QUOTE="Drakier"]Yeah.. how about that cake?mo0ksi

PSSST..... The cake is a lie.

Its pure funmurat8

Yeah....it's fun. You remember what that's like right? Playing a fun game? Not a broody, post-apacalyptic bloody dark mess game, but a fun, happy, wonderous game. Man I love fun.

Maaaaan,

Does anyone else hope they post a Video Review of "You Are Empty" like they did for Robocop? Cause I really want one now.

Dang that excludes me, I still haven't bought Crysis yet.Vandalvideo

LOL, yeah same here. In the back of my head I'm wondering if Crysis will have an ending that is as jaw-droppingly insane as HL2 EP:2's though. I'm not just talking about the final boss fight, i'm talking about the last 20 seconds before credits roll too.
