I find the rumor about the new IP more believable. Probably for multiplayer on the new one, or so I hope.

True but it says Santa Monica is looking of someone who has experience with Online Multiplayer for the job listings.

I actully think GoW multiplayer would be awesome, i would love to play a team co-op with my mates, like Uncharted 2. especailly with set peices like UC2 - like the tank in the mp mode, etc. but obviously with something else, like a giant Minotaur or Ceberus beast in GoW.

and it will be different istead of just going around with guns all the time in a typical multiplayer.

and it will be cool to have different characters to use, with different weapons. i'm interested to see how a team deathmatch would work, since this is based on very rapid kills in FPS/TPS shooters, so i'm interested on how they will do that.

a co-op mp, would make that issue redundance, since you and 2 friends would fight against the AI. but i dont see how you could create a robust mp mode, without team deathmatch, survival of the fittest, etc.

however i'm not keen on GoW4, since i think the series went downhill with the last installment and the departure of David Jaffe from the series.

as long as it doesn't take anything away from the single player experience I don't really care either way, but if they focus too much on the online aspect and neglect the single player then I'm going to be pissed

A lot of previously good single player games got butchered in singple player campaigns because of an online focus

You should congratulate me. I destroyed the vile red falcon and saved the universe. I consider myself a hero.

I doubt it's for God of War. It's probably for Starhawk or some other game.

If GOW does get online, I hope it has a mission creator like inFamous or LBP. That's the only online it needs. It would probably be hard to create the cinematic camera angles that GOW is known for though.

And the mission creator better allow for some sexy mini-game UGC! Mmm... the things I'd create...

Move aside LBP, you have been dethroned

The God of War 4  gameplay will remain, since that made the franchise successfull, now, they will need to add new classes at least, if they want to make it online. All this plus new worlds and gods and dungeons.  Another WoW frenzy I think.
