And also while he isnt a great character, Kratos is still a better character than Dante was. And to say they are interchangable is pretty ignorant.   And the story of the God of War games were far better as well.  When you say that they are just not the games Playstation fans make them out to be, it sounds like you are bitter towards Playstation fans and what they like or just Playstation in general. And your claims that playing it give validity to your comments is quite BS.  Chanecs are you were never intereted in the games and played them just to say you played them so you could trash them.  Games like God of War arent as critically acclaimed as they are and be completely replaceable by a game thats a shameless rip off of it.  

Kratos is a better character sure, doesn't mean the storyline is any good.  There are plenty of games that have garbage storylines in games with likeable characters.  Example:  Hyperdimension Neptunia is a garbage game, storyline and gameplay, but IF, the character in my PSN avatar, is an awesome character.

 To say they are interchangeable is me basing it exclusively on the gameplay.  The fact that the game was such a blattant God of War ripoff that the only major differences were the characters and story. 

I must be truly bitter towards Playstation fans when my favorite consoles are all Playstation.  It's obvious me being a Sony fanboy is a charade and I clearly only played God of War because I'm a Nintendo or Microsoft fanboy that wants to shit on a Sony exclusive franchise. 

Yeah they are, when they're only critically acclaimed because they were overrated as an exclusive.  Same with games like Mass Effect.  Mass Effect has some good qualities, like the dialogue and story, buthe gameplay is absolute shit, retarded AI, etc.  This game received massive praise for no reason other than it being exclusive, and while better games, the second and  third were still crappy  third person shooters with RPG elements and good dialogue and story, because Sony fans got what was once an Xbox exclusive, they also overrated these garbage titles.  Microsoft fans, Playstation fans, Nintendo fans.  Doesn't matter who they are, most of them follow the hype like they're sheep.  

Back to God of War, it's not like I don't enjoy these styles of games either.  Prior to the release of God of War, I already finished Devil May Cry 1-3 and Castlevania Lament of Innocence on the PS2. God of War is just an overhyped game with pretty graphics.

Kratos being a better character has nothing to do with it being a great story. All the characters in the game,  the game settings, and the actual story have to do with it being a great story, which it is.  Doesnt matter what other games fail to do when this game didnt.  

At a very basic level, yeah maybe. 

Thats basically what I was getting at yeah.   

Thats complete bullshit.  Games may be hyped before release for being exclusive, but once the ratings start coming out that doesnt matter.  Games reviewers could give less than shit about whether the title is exclusive or not.  Do you think reviewers cared that Gears of War was exclsusive when they were rating them as one of the best TPS in recent history?   Or Uncharted's exclusivity is what made it one of the greatest Action Adventure experiences on consoles today.  Or that Halo's exclusivity is the reason it is still the defacto standard for FPS games?  

And while they are both hack n slash games, I have a tough time putting Devil May Cry in the same category as God of War.  They are both great in their own right,  but other than the basic hack n slash premise, they couldnt be more different.  Bayonetta is more like Devil May Cry.
