Yes, its building up hype, but if they wanted to give people new to sony consoles a introduction to the franchise, why start with the third in the trilogy? Sounds like the GoWIV would be a better point of entry for people who haven't played the previous installments.


Because God of War IV isn't out yet let alone announced.  GoW:A was a prequel and to me, and it makes so much more sense to release GoW3 over Ascension because 

  • GoW 3 is a core game
  • Sold better, recieved much better acclaim than ascension
  • Better story, will leave better impression on new players leading into IV
  • The story will actually flow from 3 to IV.

I think you are 100% correct.

All signs point to GoW IV being a big E3 reveal. And GOWIII:R coming out in July will help to garner excitement for the game (guessing holiday season release).

Again, my complaint isn't the game releasing per se, it's the price/lack of content  compared to previous GoW collections and their prices. Regardless, I think it's a great move to get the hype going and for those who are new Sony fans to get into the series before the IV hits the market.

I mean, yeah... they could've included more. Hard to disagree with that.
