Forums - Microsoft - Microsoft need an answer to Sony's God of War to complete Portfolio 360

No the genre is getting saturated within the next year with Darksider, Castlevania, Nier, Bayonetta and Dante's Inferno. I'd rather they concentrate on other areas. Most look promising and I'm interested in nearly all of them (except Nier). I'd prefer that they invest in other under appreciated genre.

well GOW is a bit like halo in that respect it has quite a big fan following,but ms will probably try and make something like it



"They will know heghan belongs to the helghast"

"England expects that everyman will do his duty"

"we shall fight on the beaches, we shall fight on the landing grounds, we shall fight in the fields and in the streets, we shall fight in the hills; we shall never surrender"

Ninja Gaiden series is better than GOW, so it's not a major loss. But GOW is a cool game, so another great Hacker on 360 wouldn't go a miss. To be honest though I'm more waiting to see what the NG creator comes up with next now he left Tecmo for his own company.

Why am I not surprised?

WTF!?

Certain Sony Fanboys are getting really bloody annoying on this site. You guys constantly enter M$ forum threads and spout BS. Don't give the oh 'HOT TOPIS' BS either. It's green in the hot topics for a reason. *sigh*

Amongst Hack'n'slash fans Ninja Gaiden Series is considered the pinnacle. Not for it's story ( GOW is much better story wise ) but the gameplay is so much better. The combat is a real art, as is the mastery of each weapon kind. Not to mention the insane speed of the game. GOW is a good series, but it's alot easier and no way as intricate as NG in the combat ( which is the actual point of a Hacker game. )

I said GOW was a good series didn't I? Jeez.

God of War 3 -> Rip their head off.

Gears of War 2 -> Cut them into pieces.

Since Gears is probably > God of War, its Sony who needs a better answer.

Gears is not better than God of war, but they are different..

??? I don't have color coding when I click the Hot Topics button... I'm using Firefox.

Why are you using M$ BTW?

And what BS/lie have they said? All they said is that they're not surprised by your reply to this thread. Are you saying they're lying about their personal opinion on your post (and that you somehow know what they truly feel?).

They never said Ninja Gaiden sucked. And GoW on God(?)/Titan mode is hard as hell man... I stopped trying Titan mode on the guy who killed the Minotaur in Greek myth... Theseus?

Ok what if God of War 3 and Gears of War 3 released on the same week. No they aren't the same genre, but both appeal to basically the same audience. Gears 3 would tear apart God of War.
