Forums - Sony Discussion - God of War review thread - Meta: 94 OC: 95

It can't be easy being a sony first party dev. They are their own worst enemies.

this has set the bar so high, and then detroit is coming along... then spiderman. You can-imagine how bend studios feel with days gone and what kinda standards they have to hit. Then sucker ounch with GOT..... all the while TLOU2 is right around the corner. Then lets not forget death stranding.

Madness......

Wow it's actually gone up... although as people have said; there are still reviews coming, so it really wouldn't surprise me if it falls down a point or two, but still, just... to quote Owen Wilson; "Wow!"

There has to be a number of a 8/10 reviews to get it down by as much as two points. At this poont the worst it can do is drop back to 94.

wow I never expect it to reach 95 meta.

I'm not one to brag but, I have a 48inch 4K LG TV waiting for this.

I do hope that isn't one of the RGBW models...

You're safe. They didn't start making FauxK TVs until 2016.

Just pre-ordered it

If it wasn't for RDR2, this could be a big GOTY contender.



What I find the most impressive, is that there's not a single reviewer so far that doesn't like the game. Every game has that one reviewer that thought it was mediocre. But nope! Not the case here. Even the biggest grumps of the industry are enjoying this one. That's something that not even Nintendo has managed to accomplish over the decades.

EDGE is actually the biggest issue this game could have review-wise, as quite frequently they have straight up bad taste xP

Agreed. I consider Edge to be a shit-rag. One of the most consistently awful gaming sites/publications in the history of the gaming press.

^ I agree with this. They seem to grade based on how much new ground a game breaks, instead of how fun it is. But they'll love GoW, because it moves the series forward in too many ways to count, and is on the cutting edge of graphics as far as PS4 goes.

It's going to be a big GOTY contender, regardless.

And don't forget that despite GTA V releasing just a few months after The Last of Us in 2013, TLOU ended up taking the majority of the GOTY awards of that year.

So anything is possible.

I think people need to compare this game graphically to U4 and not Horizon since U4 looks better.

No it doesn't, Horizon is the most beautfull console game out there up until now, it seens GoW will dethrone it.



As expected. Another Sony KO.

But why does release have to be on Hitlers birthday?



Hunting Season is done...
