Lovers of the original God of War trilogy could be seeing a remaster on the way according to a rumour, making this an interesting news for franchise veterans.
For real. The newest two are more in line with the Last of Us where it was story first, action second. The first games of God of War are a buffet of violence being propped up by a story. Don't get me wrong, the story line is good, even now. But it was always button mashing, crazy boss fights, brutal kills first.
Sweet, can’t wait to get it on PC when it gets there. Loved the originals on ps2 as a kid, seeing the hydra get its head shish-kabobed in modern graphics will be even more spine-tingling
I really enjoyed those games back when they came out, and I don't mind the idea of a remaster in general.... but I really don't want to see certain scenes from those games in HD with remastered models/lighting. Some of them were absolutely brutal, but they were tolerable due to the "gamey" graphics.
I'm not bothered by it, in general, especially when the graphics of the older games are low-rez and "cartoony" by today's standards. But, much like how I don't like rewatching Oberyn vs The Mountain in Game of Thrones, I don't relish the thought of watching Kratos do similar things in high def. It all depends on the kind of remaster that may happen. If it's just a resolution bump and some better lighting I'll be fine.
I have a vague memory of swinging milk jugs on a chain from some silly unlockable. Also the very first 10 seconds of the game and you're fighting a boss really threw me off, but I loved every minute of it lol
