Gamesta.com takes a look at what controversial game developer David Jaffe had to say at this year's DICE summit. The man known for God of War and Twisted Metal argued that stripping down gameplay elements in accordance to narrative is a waste of time, money and resources. It's a noble opinion at the very least.
"Sometimes game companies just like disappointing everyone they can; apparently the God of War Master Collection will only be available in Germany. Take a moment to let the bitter disappointment just sink in to your heart. The God of War Master Collection includes the entire trilogy plus the two PSP games re-mastered in HD."
After recently announced the re-mastered God Of War collection, fans cried out with joy. The game will be releasing late fall, but currently only for NA. SCEE have said that EU won't be getting it this calender year. So hopefully early 2010 or you can just import it.
"Thanks to your feedback, we are excited to announce the God of War Collection for this Holiday Season. Now fans and newcomers to the series can experience the epic journey of God of War and God of War II in 720p HD form. Both titles have been remastered with anti-aliased graphics, running at 60 frames per second for a smooth gameplay experience, only on the PS3 system. Additionally, the Blu-ray Disc compilation will bring the PlayStation Network (PSN) trophy support to the franchise for the v..."
"Today, my husband and I were talking about names for our expectant child. I told him since I named our daughter he could name our son. He's decided on a name from 'God of War'. My son is going to be named after a make-believe cartoon character - Kratos. FML"
Director of the God of War movie Brett Ratner has moved on from the project to direct yet another starring Chris Tucker, this time alongside Eddie Murphy (Rattner is behind the Rush Hour movies), sources say.
"Sony Computer Entertainment America and high-profile game designer David Jaffe have been sued in U.S. District Court in California for alleged copyright infringment involving the best-selling God of War series, GamePolitics has learned.
The suit was filed in late February by Jonathan Bissoon-Dath and Jennifer Barrette-Herzog, both of Davis, California. SCEA and Jaffe filed responses with the Court on August 29th.
In the complaint, Bissoon-Dath identifies himself as "the author of a seri..."
"A brief trailer toward the end of Sony's news conference at E3 today gave a glimpse of God of War III, just announced for the PS3. The trailer was all pre-rendered, featuring Kratos atop the rubble of a ruined city, bellowing "In the end, there will be only chaos!"
Of course, more on this as it moves. Just wanted to get word out that yes, God of War III is in the pipeline."
"Sony Computer Entertainment disclosed, throughout the Interactive event and Digital Entertainment Festival that is to elapse in Paris, that God Of War III goes to be presented in the E3.
The company did not want to give many details, but probably, no longer next month to July, we will go to know the first details and to see the first trailer of so waited game."

"D: any intrest of making a game on the wii? hahaha
YES! Even though I was less than impressed with my Wii, as well as a lot fo the games I have played, I would love to make a game on this system. I think there is a lot to be done with it. Plus...its like a BILLION times cheaper to make a Wii game versus a 360 or PS3 game...which is good. Making a 40 or 50 million dollar game is cool, I love making big games dont get me wrong, but you have soooo many more masters with their hands in the cre..."
"Can anyone explain to me how having ONE console would be bad for gamers? Or game developers for that matter? asks Jaffe. One game publisher would be bad. One giant game developer would be bad. I get how those things would hurt gamers. But why would one unified hardware platform?"
Kotaku.com recently held a "Reader's Choice Awards" in which regulars of the site could vote for their favorite game of 2007 from each console.
And while not everyone was happy with how the awards were conducted, the results were still tallied and winners were still announced.
Read below to find out who won. You might be pleasantly surprised (but then again, if you've been keeping track of the popular games of 2007, you probably won't be).
"Before getting into Maxims top-ten selection, it is worth bearing in mind that its expertise and coverage in the world of gaming is marginal when compared to the print space it reserves for scantily clad female celebrities. Indeed, while you probably wouldnt rely on FHM for movie reviews over the likes of Empire or Premiere, you shouldnt place too much stock in Maxim when it comes to gaming especially if its sitting next to Edge Magazine on the shelf."
I bet you came running after seeing the articles title didn't you? Well sorry to sadden you with the news that the game will be released in 2009. Such a long time away. TheGameReviews Got a confirmation after speaking with a Dev at the Video Game awards and they also learned that the game will be running at 1080p and will support SIXAXIS and Rumble.
Sony Computer Entertainment has now officially confirmed the long anticipated sequel God of War III for the Playstation 3. This doesn't really come as a surprise as many knew there will be a third, but it was a matter of when it will be announced and today just happens to be the day.
The confirmation came from a Sony spokesperson where he stated that Cory Barlong, game director of God of War II is leaving SCEA, Santa Monica studio. Then continues saying that how the God of War group is ve...
I'm assuming the latest EGM is going to be rolling out soon, and thus, we get some more Quartermann rumors, and these are pretty good. They've been on a roll recently.
The rumors start off with what we would expect: God of War 3 and Gears of War 2.
However, the zinger is that there's the possibility of a Skies of Arcadia 2.
Good God, I hope that comes true.
This is so insane, that you can't even imagine it. Morpheon Mods have created a custom PSP that has been airbrushed metallic bronze and then it was tarnished to give it a worn and old sort of look. There are hand-sculpted symbols that have been copper-leafed onto the PSP and there are even real chains that edge the system. Even the buttons were removed to be replaced with copper ones.
Even crazier is that the shoulder buttons have been removed and then crystal red buttons are added with s...
"After the news made the rounds today, David Jaffe responded in a posting on the NeoGAF forums: "I can promise you guys I am still part of SCEA...I just got a paycheck from them! I am still 100% a Sony employee and unless I got fired today and they didn't tell me, I'm still working for them. Also, I love working with the guys at Incog and hope to work with them for a long, long time but I sure as s**t ain't moving to Utah...nice as it is, I don't think I could live there long term and I don't ..."
"Guests at the event were even invited to reach inside the goats still-warm carcass to eat offal from its stomach.
Sickening images of the party have appeared in the companys official PlayStation magazine but after being contacted by The Mail on Sunday, Sony issued an apology for the gruesome stunt and promised to recall the entire print run.
Critics condemned the entertainment giant, which produces scores of Hollywood blockbusters each year, for its "blood lust" and said the grote..."
At the beginning of March, fans of God of War II were intrigued as a mysterious website known as IslandofRhodes.org appeared shortly after the game was released in stores. The site had a picture of Kratos and a countdown, which many players took to be an announcement of the series on the PSP or even the third title in the series. Earlier today, the website was finally revealed to the world, finally putting an end to the rumors. Or did it? While a number of God of War II secrets were disclosed...
