I dont know if any of u guys caught on to this but if u pay close attention to the trailer,u will notice the narrator emphasizes alot on TIME.She also switches from past tense to future tense also. For example when she says "There was a time before Kratos became the ghost of Sparta ... a time when something other than rage consumed him. A time when Kratos would break his blood oath to an unjust god." Here she is referring to the time before Kratos killed his family and became the ghost of sparta.Most likely she is also talking about the time in which Kratos was the captain of the spartan army and before he promised to serve Ares.Then she says "A time in which he WILL no longer be bound in blood" Here she is referring to something of the future.Maybe this can be an indication that Kratos will go back in time to save his family instead.The trailer does seem to give us the idea that this GOW will be a prequel,but if u really break down everything the narrator was saying and how she was hinting that there was a "TIME" before Kratos became the ghost of sparta,a "TIME" before he was consumed by rage.I think the devs want us to think this is a prequel but in fact it is a sequel to GOW3.And if it is in fact a sequel,what I think the devs will do is show us what actually happened to Kratos at the end of GOW3 and where he disappeared to.And if Kratos does go back in time to save his family,this will allow the players to experience the events of Kratos' life before he became a mad man,before he killed his family and before he gave his life to Ares thus explaining why the narrator kept emphasizing on "TIME" in the trailer.

This is an excellent point, I was beginning to suspect something to that as well ESPECIALLY since they said we have seen nothing yet AND because it's on a console. There has never been a GoW prequel made for a console thus far, why start now?

Yea there has to be a reason they are doing it for console and not the vita/psp.GOW3's engine is amazing,so for them to push it further and improve on what they already have is a good starting point since they only did one GOW game on PS3 so far.U can only gather so much from this trailer but to be honest I'm more excited for this GOW than any other GOW simply because I'm interested in seeing what they will do with this one.The story has me interested the most,especially since they will take us to how it began and see the events unfold( I assume).I think it would be a dumb move on the devs part to make this GOW a full blown prequel,GOW fans already pretty much know the story of Kratos,we know he served Ares,killed his family,raged with the gods,etc...but a prequel and sequel in the same game?I think thats possible,it seems they are using the concept of time so we'll have to see what ascension actually means to Kratos.Maybe him rising pass the level of a god?Who knows
