Haven't played TR but this comparison is ridiculous lol. The Arkham-Uncharted lovechild vs. cinematic DMC in ancient Greece. I couldn't compare these 2 in a million years. Though TR looks excellent and I will be picking it up eventually. GoW was excellent and got me legitimately interested in a MP aspect for the first time since...LBP2 probably.

I somehow didn't notice DMC predates GoW. Its clear DMC did inspire the GoW series. And here I thought GoW was original. Silly me.

I mean I like GoW but not DMC, but I'm not exactly a hack n' slash enthusiast.  GoW gives us a more simplified (but still challenging if you play on the hardest difficulty) hack n' slash experience in an awesome setting with imo the best boss fights in the industry.  I don't know how SSM always gives me a new kind of epic but even with a prequel and using the B list of Greek mythology they did it again with Hecatoncires (that is probably butchered) and the final boss fight.  Also the oracle fight was pretty damn awesome and unique.

Well I'm not saying it was a complete clone.

But it clearly was the inspiration. I just somehow missed that.
