Sony - K2 is PS3's GOW! - View Post

GOW = Gears of War, the bigger game gets the shorter acronym.

GoOW = God of War, the littler game gets the longer acronym or must be spelt out.

Hah. Let's be fair, God of War did come out first... and was a decent hit. A game can't just rob another of its acronym just because it sells more, can it?

I suppose sometimes it should. Recently when I referred to Mario Kart as MK, two friends thought I was talking about Mortal Kombat. That series is long gone, man...


Oh, on topic - I disagree. GeoW was the first amazing looking HD game - when it came out, nothing came close. Killzone 2 only looks marginally better than current games out there. Also, KZ2 is an FPS - it plays like so many out there. The same can't really be said about GeoW. Even if KZ2 is great, it's still just another FPS with slightly better graphics. Personally, I think people are really overestimating the impact this game will have.

Anyway, Uncharted probably has more similarities with GeoW.
