Sony is loading the hype cannons and preparing for a full assault withGod of War III, and who can really blame them? As Kratos gears up for an all-new adventure, Sony product manager Claire Backhouse has sprayed her PR juice in the faces of fans, claiming thatGod of War IIIwill be a thoroughly unique game for this generation,
“God of War IIIcombines these new technologies with the much loved gameplay elements from the previous games — Puzzle solving, brutal combat and epic set-piece battles,” explains Backhouse. “It also benefits from a deep and involving storyline, steeped in Greek Mythology. This is what makesGod of War IIIunique and sets it apart from other next gen titles.
“I think if you are over 18 and want an amazing single player experience this year thenGod of War IIIis a must have.”
God of War IIIis definitely going to be stupendous, but I do hope Sony doesn’t pretend it’s the second coming of Christ and build it up into something it isn’t. I don’t think anybody expects the game to be genre-defining or some unique slice of innovation. They want violence, boobs and angry Spartans. Put the PR buzzwords in the box and tell us what we really want to know — how much blood is there?
