I was recently sent a pretty detailed run down of what to expect from God of War 3... This is an actual build of the game and not the trailer we're all set to see at the VGA's. I am told that it will only be a very short glimpse of what the game is going to offer and will probably be further edited down to about 20 seconds if that. He thinks it could be so edited that if you blink you might miss it... 10 seconds, even. Sadly, I'm not able to go into as much detail here. It sucks, I know. But, at the request of the man in question and in hopes of building a better relationship with him in the future I will honor that request. What I can talk about is this: Graphically it is going to set a new standard. Easily eclipsing the detail in Gears of War 2 and uncharted... God of War 3 is set to offer up the most cinematic experiences ever! He was over the moon about how good it looked... he said there is nothing that comes remotely close. "The detail is crafted with highest of care and the animations sell the experience like nothing you've ever seen" . He was told that the game will be 1080P and 60FPS... He then said it was obvious the footage he seen wasn't, though. So, if they're shooting for 1080P and 60fps and haven't hit it yet that's a good thing... since the game already looks better than anything out there. This is a win for the gamers. Kratos doesn't look like the only playable in the game. Apparently their might be someone along for the ride... His brother perhaps??? Gameplay remains somewhat the same but with tweaks that begged to be put in from the beginning. The camera is now placed much closer and everything is bigger and only on "certain" instances does the camera pan way out on you. He explained to me there are 3 new mechanics to the gameplay engine that drastically alter it for different players. There will be an online mode... Gladiator mode and co-op are two he touched upon. The area he has seen shows Kratos battling hordes of rotting corpses in a highly detailed cemetery. There is a a sea supplying eerie fog as the backdrop, along with dead trees and headstones. The sky has a reddish hue to it but real time storm clouds act as a blanket of night for the setting. He said the zombies realistically came up through the ground, disruptting the dirt and clawed their way into battle. He said the detail and quality of work represented in this was something he'd never seen in a video game before. After Kratos had ripped through the onslaught of undead he comes to a tomb and a battle rages on between he and a reaper-like boss battle. Described as one of the most cinematic fights in gaming history, it came together by actual fighting, timed button presses but also another brand new mechanic he didn't elaborate on further. He said the there will be100% be a playable demo for the PSN in the coming months ahead. Maybe sooner than later??? He ended it by saying the trailer we see at the VGA's isn't going to be anything to get too excited about and will end up showcasing very little of the game. And finally, while highly impressed with how the game looks and seems to play, he said he was hoping to have seen more than the cemetery in wish he feels probably starts the game off or finds its mark shortly afterwards. He said the fighting and sheer amount of enemies on screen is unheard of and was epic enough to open up the game, but he wouldn't be surprised if they didn't toss in something even bigger than what he seen. - I do have a bit more detailed stuff to go off of here but will wait for his word on things... He is said to have snapped a few pics and how great would it be if they landed somewhere in here? I'll be back later to update. While it seems credible, it could still be a rumor. Still, the online options seem very nice. What do you guys think? Source: The VG Tilt (http://www.vgtilt.com/2008/12/god-of-war-2-details.html)

Sounds wonderful, but I'm trying not to get too excited about it. 1080p and 60fps... for God of War?! Wow. This series means a great deal to me and I don't expect to be let down. Very interesting.

I played the God of War demo, but I never bought it for some reason... It was awesome while it lasted though. I dunno, I tend to miss a few great games.

I haven't played any God of War game. Why? I haven't a clue. I know it's an amazing game. I know I'd love it, yet I still haven't done so. I'm going to get III regardless though.

One of my favorite series of all time, this news has me excited. I can't wait to see some actual footage of the game in action! Thanks for the info.

I think God of War I & II is one of those must-play games on the PS2, just like LittleBigPlanet is for the PS3. Of course, don't bother if you don't like action games... ...Actually, even if you don't, you should give it a try! It never felt dull or repetitive, or unfair. Challenging, but well-balanced (unless you try to go for the higher difficulties...). Really, it can be summed up in one word. EPIC.

I LOVED God of War 2, but I never got the opportunity to play God of War 1. Needless to say, I'll be picking this up asap.

The hardest part of the game in Very Hard has to be the 2nd phase of the final battle..The "Army". Took me quite a while to finish that. God of War 2 was no different in Very Hard mode >_> What I love about any God Of War is the extra features. The replay value of the game is actually great.

More new info. David Jaffe gushed over the footage he saw of God of War 3 a few weeks ago, and we know that God of War 3 will be shown at the Spike Video Game Awards this coming Sunday. But, according to Jaffe, this is not the same footage, so if it doesn't blow you away this weekend, fear not. Warning: Strong language in the video. qIWqetPr1xE He gets to the topic at 7:10 into the video, so if you don't care to hear him talk about the ridiculous amount of games coming out at the holidays, you can skip ahead.

Let me add this: 1080P and 60FPS is a really lofty goal. And I mean really lofty. I would seriously do some nasty things I would regret to Sony Santa Monica if they are able to get it to be the full 1920X1080P and 60FPS to boot. Most of the 1080P games out now are either scaled (Lair comes to mind as something weird like 960X1080, and WipEout HD scales down to something like 1280X1080 in fast paced sections). Most 1080P games either have graphical downgrades, or do not contain a lot of 'action', I'd them go for 720P and 60FPS or even 30FPS to make it mindblowing, eye bleeding end all game of awesomesauce graphics. Killzone 2 is 1280X720 and locked at 30FPS for this reason. However, if they can do it, then more power to them and I will never doubt them ever again.

I'm....Speechless. Tad underwhelming, but its GoW. So you pretty much know that the game will be epic. I'm just glad to finally see some gameplay, and that they finally released some new stuff about it. Alright, I'm not that speechless. Can't wait for the game >_>

It's looking pretty good. I would of preferred to see actual gameplay (like in game camera) and in HD, but it's coming along. And a long way off till it releases yet.

I blinked and missed the video, lol what happened? If this is not CGI, I am very improved. Nothing much to say about the awesomeness GOW III is. I mean- all people who own a PS3 sweared that they are gonna buy GOW III, and they didn't even seen any video about GOW III It seems that GOW III has a very good PR (Publicity Rating, I guess this means PR because I dunno ) This game sure gonna be epic

Can't wait for the game though I was underwhelmed by GOW2. I loved 1, it's probably my 3rd favourite game of all time (and I've finished it about 10 times) but the pacing of 2 ruined it for me, especially the bit in Typhon's cavern... the whole section was completely unnecessary. I have yet to finish 2 a second time. I'll try to keep reserved expectations this time so as not to be disappointed. From what I've heard so far it looks like it'll be great. I just hope the story lives up to the quality of the rest of the game and that it is cohesive.
