When God of War arrived on the PS2 in 2005, it changed 3D action games forever and became one of the most highly acclaimed titles on the console. The gory action, brilliant presentation and sex mini-games made God of War and its sequels a must have on the PS2 and PSP. Naturally, we were all excited to see the first HD avatar come to life on the PS3. Well, the wait is over now and GOW 3 is a reality with the first batch of screenshots out. As expected, they look stunning. The game adds a lot more to the tried and tested GOW formula and does so at 1080p glory.
The first thing you should do is start streaming the video below, and witnesses the glorious visuals. This is running real-time on the PS3 and isn't a pre rendered trailer. The video showcases some major changes in the gameplay, which includes hooking onto enemies and wall running.
Let's get into the details:
True HD: The game looks really good, and I guess most of you will agree with me. Kratos on the PS2 was made up of approximately 4000 polygons, this time he is made up of 20,000. According to a Sony exec, you couldn't even load the new Kratos on the PS2, forget slicing and dicing enemies.
Scale: The game is huge in terms of scale. I am talking about more enemies on screen (15 in the last game, this time around about 50!). Not only do you fight against Cyclops's and Centaurs, but you also get to control them. You see when fighting against a horde of 50 enemies, Kratos can use a little help and what better than a one-eyed brute.
