Wait ... YOU don't think it's a masterpiece? Did you finish it?

Well. We might get some more 100s yet and. It's still four 90s away from dropping right?

We know a 70 or less will be dropping soon, that's the problem xP (and that's without counting QtT, it still can really be pushed as far as 93)

what 70.

You are allowed this opinion if it is justified. I have had similar issues with the original trilogy. That is why I am just waiting small bit aka within this year (plus I have huge backlog).

I don't have to finish it to know it's not a masterpiece.

I didn't say you did. I'm just surprised you feel this way given that you kept making so many threads about the game prerelease.

Would love more info.

I held off on buying this week 1, due to money issues. But depending on what I have seen and a few opinions I may wait a bit longer for price cuts. Always been a bit iffy on it ever since everyone on Metacritic has been hyping it, as I generally disagree with extremely high praise that reviewers give to games.

Smiling Kratos is... disturbing.

Seems like he is trying to hide a fart.

By the looks on that Gull's face, I believe he failed.

It deserves the praise. It's absolutey brilliant albeit a few issues here and there no more than most other releases.  stunningly gun game, stunning looking? very addicting, phenomenal score and sound and looks above all else. The minor issues aren't anything that cant be fixed with a patch. However I come from a place of no hype til the scores started landing, wasn't expecting anything at all here and got an absolute gem.

One thing I fear is something is rotten in denmark for the OG versions, my mates says shes getting overheating warnings on her fairly new slim, my OG sounds like a chainsaw going into mad stutters everynow and again and another mate is getting disc errors and crashes for the game alone. Can't find anyone complaining online so might just be a freak coincidence. Asked a few people on my PSN who have PRO and they have no problems. Hope this isn't an actual thing they fucked up on and is just coincidence.

I have thus far been quite lucky. My console has been quiet as can be and isn't any warmer than when I play any other games. It's a 2013 launch console, too, so it's not like I'm playing on a slim or on a pro. 

I am having some troubles adapting to Kratos' relatively sluggish combat and I've yet to find out how to sprint/run, but other than that it's great. Was absolutely glued to my screen up until 'the stranger'. (Not a spoiler, but those who have played it know what I'm talking about). 

RPG elements are grand, the writing thus far has been great, the performance is top notch, and it's a lot of fun. 

My mail lady was confused though. I live in townhouses, and when she got to me, she said, "Why are you so excited for a game? The last four deliveries were all games, too, and they were all young men, and they were equally as joyed as you." So apparently she had delivered a bunch of copies of God of War today and made a lot of men and one woman's day!
