Fuck yes.

And for the love of gaming, they are making a new IP! It's going to be announced this year for a release on the PS4 in 2014. We don't have to make a choice between the two because we're getting both.

God of War IV will be announced in 2015 for a March 2016 release (plenty of time after Ascension). It will be pretty much a reboot, new settings, new mythology (please be Egyptian), reformed Kratos etc.

i would prefer two new IPs

Whatever 'funny' guy, you've never even played a game in the series before (I looked through your trophy list just to be sure) so you have literally no say. For all you know you could like/love the series, at least I try games before dismissing them.

They could go forward in about 100+ ways. It's a fantasy series loosely based on ancient mythology and death means little to a Kratos who's died 3+ times and came back. They could go for a new mythology (Norse, Egyptian, Chinese etc), the could continue with Greek Mythology and have Athena release and side with the Primordials to destory Kratos, they could go into the future, they could have a new protagonist and have Kratos become the villian... many many options going forward. I noticed you never played God of War: Ascension (looking through your trophy list) so you wouldn't know who/what the Primordials are, here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greek_primordial_deities

Gears of War literally can't continue after GeoW3 so that's not a fair comparison, they exterminated the Locust... all of them. That's it, done. Epic would be better off at starting a new IP and leaving People Can Fly to continue Gears next generation, there's room for at least 1 more prequel in the series I think (pendulum wars).

Yes yes yes yes yes.

Oh and yes.

Ehhh I don't know. I'm sure they could find a way to continue it so I won't rule it out.  They did have the ending to have you guessing a little bit about Kratos's status so it is plausible.  I can't see how they could continue it but someone more creative than me probably could make it work.

Also I agree about what you said and Gears.  Although I don't think the pendulum wars would work because there is no locusts.  That takes out a large amount of unique and cool weapons that makes gears popular.  Also the lancer wasn't created until after E-Day.

GOW4 on PS4 with new main character and Kratos will be the final boss this time...

hoping new main character will be female so that can skip those unnecessary sex contents...

well she can be the one to get banged, or she may be into womens so we can some lesbo action :3.

I want God of War: (insert subtitle)

Norse mythology with new hero who maybe shares a similar tale (tricked by a God) but not too similar. Egyptian would work too but I think Norse has some really cool character and is highly marketable after the 2 Thor movies and Avengers that will have been out by the time the next God of War is made. With Infamous Second Son and Killzone Mercenary on PS4 already and the series' storyline and Kratos being a bit rung out at this point (I don't see where there are any more gaps to fill and continuing after 3 would REALLY be a stretch and just feel stupid, but maybe SSM can make it work).

Give it a rest....a long rest.
