God of War Ascension really isn't that good.

I find it funny how some people only realised now that GoW games are light on story. The interesting part is the mithology. The story is completely ridiculous to non-existant. Kratos is angry, kratos kills. Its about as deep as the Hulk.

GoW games are for good graphics and mindless hack and slash fun.

you never played one have you? the stories have always been deeper than most games ever made. the narrative story telling by gia is also epic

I am appauled. Look at this: Spartan warrior that revolts against his God after his family been killed, discovers he is the son of one of them and decides to kill them all because they are selfish and unruly.God of war storyline in a nuttshell. Theres nothing deep about it. You want deep? Go play metal gear solid or kingdom hearts, dont make me laugh.

Oh and for the record i kept it vague because of spoilers. Sadly for you i have played all of them except 3. I quite enjoy the mythos.

You know you can take any games story and give the storyline in one sentence right.  That doesn't mean that it barely has a story at all.  

For example:  Mass effect = Human soldier who works with other alien species to save the world.

  Uncharted = Treasure hunter who goes on a search for the greatest treasures on Earth.

  Assassin's Creed = Modern day hero relives his ancestors past to save the world.

  Far Cry 3 = Man trapped on island has to kill to survive to save himself and his friends.

  TLOU = Man takes girl across the US and fights both humans and infected.

  Crysis 2 & 3 = Explosions, explosions, aliens, explosions, humans, aliens, explosions.

  Gears of War = A war between humans and creatures called locusts.

I can keep going if you like, but I think I got my point across
