Yet to play Ascention (Played GOW 1, 2, Chains of Olympus, Ghost of Sparta to completion) and 45 mins in to GOW 3.
I hear theres very few weapons in Ascention (psp style huh, like 2 lousy weapons?) not important right now anyway.
Forget story.
Forget presentation.
For PURE GAMEPLAY.
DmC>> MG:R>>>> all God of Wars. (that i have completed)
Sorry, but the GOW's i have played thus far are not in the same league as games like DMC 1, DMC 3, Onimusha 1,2,3, Bayonetta, NG 1,2, Chaos Legion, DmC or even MGR:R.
GOW is better than Ninja Blade, Darksiders & Dante's Inferno however.
