    unnanounced oscar winner? Clearly their working with Heath Ledger on this game, taking his experience to the locales of course.

    ".....Eviscerate God of War? No. Be a good game? Possibly. And besides, it's already been confirmed by Stig Amussen himself that you can ride the Cyclops' and Harpies in God of War III, so even with this beast you mentioned, there is still similarity. Yet until further details, I see it as another lackluster piece of Shovelware trying to mimic God of War and will end up failing in the end. Just speculation at the moment though." . . . nancy over here. Geeze.

    Were you guys not going on about how massive the levels are going to be in God of War 3? You know, running around on Titans! Even the part with enemies falling past you sounds like what I saw in that trailer.

    good article. Noticed a typo though, on the first page you say "descended to Heaven". Wouldn't Heaven be upwards?

    hopefully the Dead Space crew can borrow as well as the did with Dead Space than in Dante's Inferno. Looking forward to seeing how the comedy plays out, plus I can pretend like I read it after playing the game. I can't wait to reference the story from the game and be slapped in the face by someone that actually read it.

    besides we all know what you said about mercs 2 being better than gta 4

    im a HUGE god of war fan beat the first second and chains of olympus. and somehow i got a 360 im crying cause i wont be able to play gow 3 so when i heard the a game highly similar to god of war was comin out to the 360 i was estatic and still am. ps3 has way to many good games despite what people think i preorded this game and cant wait for it to come out

    I have such high hopes for this game.

    it's funny i,m listening to the song hells bells (acdc)while reading this.

  • jonny9 - March 1, 2009 1:23 a.m.

    GOW is a good game but it looks like this could beet it. only just though.

    listen Ive wanted to say a lot of things about a lot of stuff on this website but for this I actually made an account to tell you that this dude is nothing compared to Kratos. Kratos would thump this guy and he would fly all the way through limbo, hell, heaven, earth and all the way back so Kratos could clothes line him bye spiting a luggie. to tell you the truth I would have liked to say something nice about this game but nobody messes with the God of War

  • dougle - February 28, 2009 10:55 a.m.

    wow pretty sweet game by the looks

  • cyclist64 - February 27, 2009 4:48 p.m.

    yea im not seeing the whole destorying god of war either and in my own personal exprience games that copy this closely to another game are almost never as good as the game they mimic seriously these game developers should try to come up with some original ideas for once

  • hardcore_gamer1990 - February 26, 2009 10:08 p.m.

    im betting it will outsell God Of WarIII 4-to-one, because for every PS3-owning GOW fan that will buy this as well as GOW III, there will be another 20 smackhead 360 owning gore addicts that want a piece of the action. Oh, and then there will be 360 ownbing GOW fans, and the smackhead PS3 owners. Im the last one =)

    Hmmm, Beowulf was a great Epic poem too, and we know who that game turned out.

  • Sonneilon - February 26, 2009 4:54 a.m.

    I've read the books. It's a great concept. But to me, GoW and THIS are very different.

  • nitrocole - February 26, 2009 3:36 a.m.

    Looks like a good game, but it will not eviscerate god of war!

  • Skykid - February 25, 2009 11:38 p.m.

    Liked the Dante rethink too. He looks sweeeeet. :)

  • Skykid - February 25, 2009 11:35 p.m.

    I haven't read it myself. But hear is an equasion melikes (Grim Reaper's sythe + Heavenly powers= lots o' fun!!!) :))))

  • jimsondanet - February 25, 2009 6:37 p.m.

    so will there be GoW puzzles too? everything else about this games has been 'inspired' by GoW why not?
