I don't think you understand the meaning of vice versa...

Do explain.

It doesn't mean the opposite. It means that the object and subject are reversed. For example:

Wii Sports helps the Wii and vice versa.

Wii Sports helps the Wii, and the Wii helps Wii Sports.

 

And I got it wrong how?

You want to know why I like God of War? I was keeping that out of this thread, I figured it was kind of off topic.

And as for abbreviations, look at the forum name. Sony Discussion. Gears of War is not a Sony game. Gears of War never uses Roman numerals, and very little (if anything) is known about the third game. I try not to use them in my titles, but I don't honestly think anybody could see that title, in the Sony forum, and think it was about anything other than God of War.

EDIT: The reason I was pointing out that it's your opinion is because you came into a perfectly good thread (the OP is an article, by the way), and said it was annoying, partly because he used an (obvious) acronym once, and partly because you said God of War III was overhyped. If it's going to annoy you, don't click on the thread.

If I had known it was going to annoy me, I wouldn't have clicked the thread. But it did, so I said so. Usually I manage to stay away from those types of threads.

My point was not that the game was overhyped. The point was that the article failed to produce any sort of gameplay argument that would warrant me getting excited over it, since I didn't like the first two. And whatever you might think, I WANT to like the God of War games. Hell, I bought the first two. Considering how seldom I buy games, that's saying something.

And I really do think that graphicly perfect disembowelment is a very immature selling point, and taken out of the God of War context, so would most people, I assume.

The article would have appealed to anybody who really enjoyed the God of War games. Somebody like me, or Makingmusic. People like you and MaxwellGT, who like the games, but don't think they're brilliant, wouldn't get excited at all over that article.

I mentioned on the first page that I would buy God of War III if it was God of War II with Titans, Olympus and HD graphics. Anything else is a bonus. Those six things in the article are all bonuses. God of War III isn't going to appeal to anyone who didn't like God of War and GoWII, and it really shouldn't. It'll appeal to some people, and not to others.

Also, about the disembowellment, notice how I made a whole list of good things about the games and didn't mention the gore once. It's a selling point, because it's a hack and slash, and a hack and slash is meant to be violent and gory. In fact, I felt that one of the downsides of Ninja Gaiden was that it wasn't gory enough. I'm not a sadist or anything, it's just how a game in that genre should be.

And as for Galaki and "vice versa", the reason I didn't explain it immediately is that I didn't want to come across as being a grammar Nazi. I just pointed out that it was incorrect, and then explained the correct meaning when he asked me to.

Well, I said I thought God of War and GoWII were fantastic games, and you said vice versa...that doesn't really make sense, because switching around the subject and object would make it read "God of War  and GoWII think I am a fantastic game"

Probably at the end (or almost at the end) Kratos will fight Hercules (Hercules helped Zeus to defeat the Giants once in Greek Mythology "Gigantomachia", and probably the current plot is based on that)...

They forgot "It's God of War"

 

Glad it only took 2 replies for someone to say this.

I honestly don't care if this game looks average graphically, give me brutality, smart AI, dynamic battles and epic scale, and you've got a day 1 purchase here.

Give me God of War II with Titans, Olympus and HD graphics, and you've got a first day sale.

 

Give me anything with "God of War" in the title and you've got a first day sale.

Come on people, it's friggin GOD OF WAR!!!! Of course it's going to be bloody brilliant. I'm actually surprised someone needed to confirm it.



PLAYSTATION®3 is the future.....NOW.......B_E_L_I_E_V_E

Guidelines to understanding my train of thought:

  • THE METAL GEAR SOLID FRANCHISE IS THE BEST THING TO HIT THE PLANET SINCE THE PS3!! THUS, MGS FRANCHISE >> SLICED-BREAD.
  • Solid Snake shall and well always shove 1up mushrooms up Mario's ass. 
  • Solid Snake shall and well always decimate Master Chief with a flurry of rocket launchers, shotgun rounds, and a 20 minute monologue.
