Support NeoGAF

[Neoxon]

I really felt for Kratos & his son immediately. I may actually bite.

Also, great speech from Shawn.

 

[Darryl M R]

Any release date? Release year? I need this. This would be my first GoW game, I hated how linear it seemed before. But this looks amazing.

 

[Lady Siara]

That shit was so puzzling.

I didn't like it at all. Why did they go that route?

Yeah, I'm...still digesting that. Bit baffled myself, will keep an eye on it. I'm not really sure how I feel about it but I can appreciate them trying something new.

 

[Einchy]

That was awkward as fuck.

No, it wasn't...

 

[Space Runaway]

This is the kind of change-up the other GoW shown today needed.

 

[Larson Conway]

I am so appreciative of this solidarity with Orlando.

 

[KZObsessed]

God of War incredible

 

[Social]

The last of us meets Tomb Raider meets Kratos, in a good way.

That was mindblowing.

 

[FTF]

Oh wow total reboot of God of war, very interesting.

 

[TalonJH]

I'm actually interested in a new GoW now. I was tired of the games but that's a real reboot.

 

[bndadm]

I will be dissapointed if its a straight reboot. I like lore carrying on. But I am sure I will get past it if that gameplay is anything to go by.

 

[neojubei]

Glad he called out LGBT specifically. Good stuff.

very good stuff

 

[Despera]

The Last of Kratos: A Spartan's End.

 

[Fine Ham Abounds]

Dude what I give no shits about God of War and now I'm looking forward to it :O

Same kinda

 

[Karak]

I'm not too sure whether I like the new shift for God of War. It looks phenomenal nonetheless.

Some of the animation was really not good though with lots of issues. That's the switch though. I am sure they will try to shore it up.

 

[TheLostBigBoss]

"we stand with the LGBTQ community but we won't develop any games with them in it"

Nice that they acknowledged it at least

The Last of Us says hello

 

[Instro]

Not really feeling that GoW direction. Then again it was always a series that sort of aped other series styles and mechanics, so I suppose it picking up stuff from some other current series isn't too surprising.

 

[Big Green Anus]

I think God of War looks amazing.

 

[demigod]

Sony showing what Scorpio games will look like

Kaz Hirai?

 

[EatinOlives]

You can tell the teleprompter scrolls too slowly.

 

[Euron]

Lots of respect for that Sony

 

[carlsojo]

Shawn's gotten waaaay better at this.

 

[Toparaman]

Wait it started early?

 

[Chuck Norris]

Classy Sony.

 

[SillyJoe]

Great public speaker.

 

[Shift Breaker]

God of War will fill the serious quota, Crash is happening!

 

[oneils]

Over the shoulder angle and the little person tag along.

Still looks fuckin dope AF don't be shameful i'm hyped!!

Huh. Seems like a weak analogy/comparison. Guess it's just sarcasm lol.

 

[Kraftwerk]

Classy gesture. Doesn't make up for GOW, but nice to see a display of humanity.

what a weird comment

 

[NipplesAndToes23]

Will hardcore God of War fans be happy with a complete gameplay and tonal shift?

As a fan of 1 and 2 I'm okay.

 

[OléGunner]

Those graphics were mind bending

 

[Incendiary]

I'm glad they changed up God of War - it looks pretty awesome. Don't need more of the same, we got plenty of games like it the last two generations.

 

[Galang]

"we stand with the LGBTQ community but we won't develop any games with them in it"

Nice that they acknowledged it at least

This isn't the time to make those kinda comments.... unnecessary

 

[RefigeKru]

GOW is legit.

Better than I thought goddamn.

 

[hey_it's_that_dog]

My heart sank when I saw skill-specific experience points pop up. If the game has crafting I'm gonna be bummed.

The combat animations were substantially worse than previous GOW games (aside from the QTE). I hope this camera angle doesn't ruin the whole game.

 

[FiggyCal]

I love the way that this is a direct sequal to God of War 3. looks awesome.

Lol

 

[Etria]

1 hour remaining confirmed.

 

[Unknown Soldier]

"For the next hour"

Did you mean the next 2 hours, Shawn?

 

[msdstc]

Only an hour sounds like.

 

[offshore]

Only an hour?

 

[mauaus]

Sony already won with that reveal damn

 

[23qwerty]

I dont want a gaming conference to talk about terrorist attacks, this is terrible

Absolutely terrible yeah just awful of Sony to do that

???????????????

 

[Numb]

Sony so serious

 

[HotHamBoy]

After 4 console games and two PSP titles all following a very rigid formula, I am more than fine with a shake up. Also a good idea to pass the baton from the angry, yelling man to the softer, curious one.

 

[ActWan]

Holy fucking shit. That soundtrack. Need to get my bearings back.
Look awesome. Remade Kratos and everything, probably a reboot and we play the kid (as we got scores for stuff he does like finding the footprints)?
Maybe they're building his character GOW3-esq until he has to kill his kid for the god or IDK I'm just speculating

 

[GhostWriter24]

That was awkward as fuck.

Um, no it wasn't. Why can't people actually be nice once in awhile?

 

[weekev]

Where the hell is that crash shirt!

No need for the crash shirt, his place is on the big screen tonight.

 

[Xtars]

God of War needed a reboot and not only be about hack and slash. I like what I see a lot. Looks amazing and super happy about the norse theme!

 

[wanderingprostheyltite]

Weird shift coming from God of fucking War

Right? Talk about a jarring transition. The ribbon is all you need imo.

 

[DKHF]

Bend! DDR here we go.

 

[Sidewinder]

People wanted change for God of War. We are getting change and it looks magnificent.

So happy about that, well done Santa Monica! GoW needed a new start.
