RECENT GOD OF WAR 3 NEWS

0  Why God of War 3 Doesn't Need Aggressive Marketing Tue, Mar 9th, 2010, 1:10 pm (EST) BY ADAM MA As we get closer to the release of God of War III, fans are eating up every bit of information they can get. The men and women at Sony are keeping a tight lid on this one however, with only the occasional trailer here, a screenshot there, and the unveiling of the box set for fans to chew on. That's exactly the way it should be. As a culture we tend to get a little obsessed with how much information we can learn before something even happens, and it's created a lot of false hopes and empty promises.

2  God Of War Team 'Inspired' By Killzone, Uncharted's Visuals Thu, Feb 25th, 2010, 4:28 pm (EST) BY JORDAN DOUGLAS God of War III Director Stig Asmussen has revealed that his team was 'inspired' by the graphical strides made by Killzone 2 and Uncharted 2. Asmussen believes that these games "raised the bar" in terms of graphics and that he hopes God of War III will be thought of "in the same way." Asmussen made these remarks in the latest issue of the Official PlayStation Magazine, which is doing a special on the evolution of God of War III. "I think we were really scared about [God Of War 3's] visuals up until E3. When we did our press release back in March, we felt pretty good about it. But then we see games that are raising the bar like Uncharted 2 obviously did, and Killzone 2," Asmussen stated. He continued, "I think we just need to make something that, you know, people will talk about in the same way. It's a different game, but we'd be happy at that point." More »
