Blasphemy! 

 

Seriously, did the 2 psp games take place after? 

Ascension happens before 1 (so 0)

Chains of Olympus happens between 1 and 2 (so 1.5)

Ghost of Sparta happens between 2 and 3 (so 2.5)

Chains happens after Ascension but before 1. Chains is 0.5

Ghost happens between 1 and 2, so Ghost is 1.5

There's also God of War Betrayal (mobile) which happens between Ghost and 2, so betrayal is 1.75

I guess they want to do what Guerilla is doing and be a two game studio like ND. No complaints here. Can’t wait for God of War 2 and Cory Barlog’s new IP.

ND a two game studio? They’re only actually big enough to fully work on one game at a time, tho—at least currently. They’ve said as such. Guerilla and SSM seem to be growing into full, two-team studios. Either way, this is exciting news. And I can’t wait for CB’s new IP, either. The way he talked about it after GoW’s release, it sounded like he was looking to start it sooner than later. 



god of war 2 needs to be ps4
the new IP needs to be out at least a year or 2 max after ps5 is released

Ascension was set in the past  so no, it should be called God of War Kenzan.



Ascension should be called God of War That Nobody Wanted To Play

Deus Ex (2000) - a game that pushes the boundaries of what the video game medium is capable of to a degree unmatched to this very day.

God of War5 will be a PS5 title.

Great news. Sony is really ramping up its 1st party Studios. Seems like they are going to go to multiple teams per studio vs creating/buying new studios. As far as I can remember, Sony Bend, Guerrilla Games, Naughty Dog, and now Santa Monica are all hiring for 2nd projects. With games taking 4 - 6 years to develop, it makes since that they would run multiple projects on offset schedules.

Now, we just need Polyphony to expand, and make wider use of Gran Turismo, or just make Gran Turismo much bigger. Honestly I would love to see Gran Turismo turn into a service, and basically offer a combined Open World and Circuit Expereince.

For me the ultimate play for two team studios would be one team working VR, and the other team working Retro. I would love to see Santa Monica do a ground up VR title, along a sequel to GOW(2018).



Stop hate, let others live the life they were given. Everyone has their problems, and no one should have to feel ashamed for the way they were born. Be proud of who you are, encourage others to be proud of themselves. Learn, research, absorb everything around you. Nothing is meaningless, a purpose is placed on everything no matter how you perceive it. Discover how to love, and share that love with everything that you encounter. Help make existence a beautiful thing.

Props for giving me a good chuckle!

There's no way God of War 2 makes a PS4 release.
