If you want to be dark, then by all means avoid the trailer. In one minute time, it gives you a good idea on what the game is about.

Graphically it's good, not OMG. But the game looks really fun to me. A nice change from previous.
Doesn't mean much. The Pro is limited to its showcases in exclusives because the not-exclusives are showcased better elsewhere.
If Shadow of the Tomb Raider has an 60fps mode like Rise, SSM got some 'splaining to do.
I wonder if they will day one patch a 5th difficulty level. Hold your hand. That is what I need.
Neither. I find everything shown from the game to be a step back from all its predecessors from the frame rate to the scale to the combat to the setting.
No more QTE's ftw.
They were cool once upon a time. But I'm glad that they sound like they're gone.

That was the NUMBER one change I loved to see in this new one. I enjoyed GOW3, but hated the QTE. Now I am wet just waiting.
I love how the basic combat looks so much more brutal now, before it was just the kill moves that looked brutal and everything else was just arcade style reactions to the chain swings. I like that they've incorporated the kid into combat, better that he has some usefulness instead of just standing there.

But if I said GoW is the best looking game this year on any platform not many would disagree. Not only is GoW a graphical showcase they announced 100 enemies on screen at one time. That's really impressive at this quality of graphics.
Again Sony big games are usually voted best graphics/most technically impressive despite the existence of PC.
Literally everything has evolved. It's obvious you don't follow GoW

Just looks like Rise of The Tomb Raider to me...and as thats native 4K and 60fps for a 3 year old game. Both technical feats beyond gow. If Shadow does the same what exactly is gow doing that would impress me when its not even hitting the pixel count of a run of the mill third party game and not even the same framerate as the PS2 and PS3 games?
I've played them all except the cellphone game. Things that i consider a step backwards is the framerate. So i guess Coreys kid doesnt like 60fps.
The combat...in this case DMC lite is preferable and deeper to full on For Honor. Evolving would have been making a combat system better than DMC.
The scale. Why is the world serpant no bigger than the Hydra from god of wars first level?
The setting. How come Kratos is in scandanavia when he killed himself with the sword of aeons. Its almost like the IP painted itself into a corner once they realised there was no more Greek Myths to kill and said surprise Norseology. I bet they dont even address it.
Why did he have a son and dishonor the daughter he murdered? Kratos wouldnt do that. Say her name. Calliope.
Why is he struggling with a single draugr when he took out gods and titans (and minotaurs, chimera and gorgons) in seconds.
Of course i know this is because after Ascension underperformed Sony doesnt want to invest in the action game genre anymore (as opposed to say...making a proper sequel with even bigger scale which is the reason Ascension underperformed..it wasnt as Epic as GoW3), but i'd rather Corey just outright say that then demeaning the previous games as immature. Its like the guy who made Breath of the Wild saying Zelda has grown up and anyone who liked Orcarina of Time is a gaylord.

I have you on ignore because you post so much BS, ended up seeing this post and it's nice to see that nothing has changed. Rise on the One X gives you the option of Native 4K at 30fps or 1080p targeting 60fps it's not Native 4K at 60fps. Secondly rise doesn't match this game visually, you can say it does all you want and that can be your real opinion or just another case of your trolling but I doubt you'll find many people outside of your trolling partner who liked your post who agree with you.
So. Can god of war do either? The answer is no. Because SSM managed 720p and 60fps last gen so thats a downgrade IMO. Is not the point of generational leaps to perform at least as well as previous games?. At least im not an echo chamber of the project lead and slagging off the original games to build this one up.
Theres no reason to believe Rise needs to match it when its above and beyond in pixels and framerate and 4k textures.
I know that argument would have come up until recently, but if they arent going to at least match that example with the pro then theres no reason to put the visuals on a pedestal when they're just kind of ordinary.
Theres trolling and disatisfaction. If Call of Duty became a 30fps game or Dante no longer has white hair we riot. When god of war does it its beyond critiscism.

Didn't know who you were talking to until showing hidden posts. He's pretty awful and is one if the handful of people who make this forum unbearable at times.
I wouldn't blame him if he did...
Now, if we could only get JinCa to take a break
I just read that it will be nearly a 25 hour campaign. I can get jiggy with that. GOW3 was awesome, and I hate QTE's. This without QTE's will be awesome times 10.
