Well, God of War is one of my favourite video games, but.... I don't like the direction where this is going. Maybe they should've released a game to completely tie up Kratos' story and go for another mythology (Norse anyone ?) and still keep the God of War name to freshen things up and not take the risk of a new IP at the same time.
A new hero, a new story, a new mythology but still God of War. They only have to change the colour of Kratos' tattoos, take out his pale skin and give him a different name :D
However, I'm not saying this game will be bad or anything, I'm just saying it pains me to see God of War go the way of Assassin's Creed or Call of Duty.
MILK.
Although its not that bad yet I guess.... Its inline with Halo in the milk department now... But it might get "yearly release" bad, and if that happens I will kill myself

Why is everyone so obssesed in changing the mythology in God of War??!! WTF?!!   If they make a game based on other mythology it should be a new IP. 

And GOW is not getting milked, there will be only 2 entries for the PS3 (collections dont count), while COD is getting 7 games this generation.

I know God of War is not getting "milked" in that regard like CoD... what I'm trying to say is that making a new god of war game for the sake of making a god of war game is pretty bad. I want god of war to be remembered for how great they are and not how non-sensical and mediocre it was. (Kinda like tomb raider now, hence the re-boot).

Also changing the mythology isn't a bad thing at all. Whats gonna happen to the series in the future ? Ascension, and then maybe an Epilogue to God of War III to close out Kratos' story. Afterwards, Sony can't afford to let the series die and bringing Kratos back again, and fighting the same minotaurs and cyclopses again would cause franchise fatigue to the point that most people would lose interest.

It makes business sense to start a NEW trilogy of God of War with NEW enemies and NEW gods and NEW mythologies. Things are kept fresh, we get the gameplay we love, and the God of War brand name will drive sales rather than building things from scratch for a new IP. So it makes business sense too while preventing the franchise from lingering on the the depths of mediocrity. So its a win for us gamers, win for Sony and win for the developers too. Everyones happy.
