God Of War III director Stig Asmussen has revealed that Killzone 2 inspired his team to improve the graphics of Kratos's latest adventure - and that he hopes both games are "talked about in the same way".
Speaking to Official PlayStation Magazine, Asmussen also marked our Uncharted 2 as a title that also 'raised the bar'.
"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.
"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."
Asmussen was talking as part of a 19-page God Of War spectacular in the latest OPM - which charts the rise of the game from its PS2 beginning to the monster we know and love today.
The mag's God Of War 3 review in the same issue gives the game 9/10.
