    First of all, let me say; disregard the Zeros. They come from small minded gamer bros who are upset that the game isn't as simple as it used to be, and is no longer within their grasp. In fact, one degenerate was upset that he's "No longer bangin chicks!"

    **** these people. Let them rot in hell. I guarantee they're awful in real life as well.

    n the face of competition from both the Xbox one and the PC, God of war comes as a boon to the PS4, a showcase of the console exclusives that makes you glad you invested in Sony's system. Not since Horizon Zero Dawn have I been so deeply drawn into a game's narrative and combat. This is on the cusp of gaming perfection. No DLC. No need for multiplayer. Not only is it a wonderful gaming experience, it's a wonderful learning experience.

    You are constantly told Norse stories and are shed more light on prominent Norse figures by the ever-so-wise Mimir, and his tales, his banter, are pure joy. I was eager for every morsel of information he passed on These tales are brought to life and made even more epic by the sweeping orchestral sound track and its robust use of chants and choirs.

    Finally I would be foolish to not talk about the visuals of the game. Oh my goodness, the visuals. They're amazing. Breathtaking, even. I found myself scouring the screen, every detail of the world, several times. The foliage, the weather effects, the ruins. The scenery in general. This is without a doubt the most beautiful game I've ever played. You cannot go wrong by playing God of War

    Awesome game ever!!! I loved how the norse mythology was adopted and enhanced game-play allowed me to experience something new as compared to previous god of war games.

    This game is beautiful but the gameplay is just terrible compared to the original. Horrible camera, crappy progression system, boring combat (just throwing axes and hiding behind shields). A MASSIVE disappointment.

Puzzles are well done and fun to figure out. Story and lore is fantastic. Santa Monica Studio just became the best playstation dev team, and God Of War just became my new favorite game of all time. It is simply magic.

    Kratos is back and he's back with a vengeance.

    This is not a perfect game by all means but as far as I played I enjoyed most of the time my quest and also the story. Boss fights we're not as epic as previous God of War but still, they are as tough as it is before. Overall I give a rating of 10/10 good job Sony and Santa Monica.

    Like pulling teeth, the God of War soft reboot suffers from the same issues as it's contemporaries such as Uncharted, which should explain it all.

The game tells the story very well and can not be predicted, the battles are epic, they entertain always, you never end up bored and the fact that you can improve the weapons, armor, abilities and also of your son's is something that helps the history and relationship Father and Son.

    God of War needed to evolve and it has, just in the right way. Santa Monica has made the right choice about changing the gameplay and depth of the story and character motivations.

    Kratos is not merely and rather blindly motivated by his anger (which was perfect for what the God of war games were). Every mechanic gets old, especially after many sequels with the same formula are released. (Far cry, assassin's creed etc...) By the time Ascension came out I was pretty bored of the combat, character motivations and pretty much everything else (except for the graphics, gore and finishing moves which this game has retained) after having played all the other titles.

    This game is a nice change and revives a dying franchise (and the Santa Monica studio) with an unexpected but great change of overall atmosphere, while still making the player feel powerful after every hit, just like in the old GoW titles. The changes were made where they needed to be made in order not to rehash just another sequel with the same formula, and I have got to hand it to them, it just feels like a better and revised version of the game and the entire genre. I would say this is what other productions should try to do when making sequels. Production companies should dare to make something new and original while still keeping the feeling of one specific series of games, instead of always rehashing the same old mechanics...

    Graphic is the biggest strength of this game. Shadows are always on point and at the right resolution, a nice blurring of the edges ensures that they do not get that blockiness because of the sometimes needed lower resolutions. The most striking part is the art directions, it just all feels like straight out of a painting. All the lights and colour correction create a unique atmosphere for every single different level, it reminds me of The Witcher 3 in this regard.

    In the end I would have not given this game a 10 due to the frame rate issues at launch (which i am sure will be corrected with a patch), and the narrow field of view that personally bothers me in every game (ie horizon zero dawn), I am only doing it to counteract people giving it a 0. Yeah I do care about seeing a better score here just because this game deserves it...

    if the title was not "God Of War" but "Generic Game", this would have flopped really bad, the gameplay is as linear as it could be, there's no real exploration going on, you just move from point A to point B, you kill a huge amount of enemies over and over and over and over again, then

    the combat is atrocious, they tried really hard to copy Dark Souls style combat, but everything went bad, you just mash buttons hoping for the best, there's no real strategy involved...

    difficult level is a joke really, easy/normal are for kids, if you play in hard, there's no change to enemy behavior or anything else they promised, but they just send you 10 times the number of enemies and they have 10 times the health...they choose the cheapest way possible to increase difficulty, leading to pointless frustration, because unlike Dark Souls, here is just a matter of luck and being fast enough in mashing buttons

    your weapon does no damage at all (even after upgrades, they're mostly useless btw), so each enemy takes from 10 to 100 hits, EACH of them, bosses takes several hundreds of hits, so it takes forever to kill them, because you can only hit them 2-3 times, then they do their unstoppable 1-hit kill aoe, kinda like a mmorpg, so you're forced to retreat, wait for the next cycle, rinse and repeat, it's so boring and frustrating that you loose all interest for it

    in theory you're supposed to aim and throw your axe at weak points, well good luck doing it with pixel-perfect precision on a controller...I can do this with mouse+keyboard, not with a controller and the precision required to hit the weak points is insane, it's simply impossible to do it right with a controller

    the rune chests are terrible, you're supposed to always hit 3 bells, again with insane precision that cannot be possibly achieved on a controller, and you have no time to do them, but you're forced to do them otherwise you have too low health and rage, still pointless frustration for the player, which translates into cheap gameplay time extension

    pros:
    Graphics - it look good, really good, no point in denying that, especially on a PS4 Pro, with a 4k HDR tv, it's really beautiful
    Sound - it's ok
    Companion - he does not get in the way, they just copy-pasted The Last Of Us, which is a good thing
    Kratos - he's still good, not the unstoppable god-killing machine that he was in the past, but he's supposed to be older now
    Realms design - they look very different from each other, with a recurring theme, so at least they put some effort into it

    cons:
    Sony marketing campaign - it's really too much for this game, spend your money on hiring good game designers
    Enemy design - they all feel the same and fight in the same way
    Combat - one of the worst I've ever experienced on a PS4 game, feels like bad executed mix of Dark Souls, Nioh and Horizon: Zero Dawn, very, very bad and frustrating
    Story - yeah I was not expecting a good story from a game where the protagonist just rips open heads and bangs chicks with quick-time events, but they could have at least tried...
    Difficulty level - very cheap way to do this, if you want to copy Dark Souls or Nioh, at least do it right...
    Weapon(s) - useless, they do no damage
    Upgrades - confusing and useless, like everything else
    Skills - takes far too much to level up anything, so you end up not caring at all (and all the skills are useless, like crafting and weapon upgrades)
    Crafting - confusing and useless much like upgrades, it looks like this was thrown in at the last minute because "every game has crafting today"
    Gameplay - what gameplay? There's no gameplay at all, just mash buttons and hope for the best...it's just a one long linear movie

    very bad game overall, and I'm not even complaining about the shift in the gameplay from previous God Of War games, I have no problems with that, if the end result is good, but this is simply bad

    Fantastic game, great visuals, great combat and story. Character development was awesome but the boy had some awkward times. Needs more boss battles and more lands to visit. 100% worth the 60$ price tag.

    An absolute masterpiece. From its intriguing story, gorgeous visuals, brutal combat, great pacing, epic bosses, and rewarding exploration, it was everything I wanted and more. You can tell the developers put their hearts and souls into this game while playing it. This is easily hands down the best video game Santa Monica Studios has ever crafted. If you have a PS4, this game should NOT be missed!

    My favorite game series of all time is back and better than ever! Kratos has been reimagined is a whole new light and the story feels so much more intimate, the characters are well developed and the gameplay is absolutely phenomenal. If you are at all skeptical about this I can guarantee you will not regret your purchase.

    People too oblivious and just blindly go gaga for this game, crappy dodge mechanic, ridiculous grind in order to progress, or just get roflstomped on enemy bosses. Took a good game and decided to add crap mechanics to at depth gameplay. Stuff that was not needed in the game.

    As a huge fan of the God of War series and The Last of Us, I was really excited for God of War, and seeing the many perfect score reviews come in made me drop everything to get it at launch. I knew this game would be different, and seemed really cool. Well, I was disappointed... a lot.

    The premise seems interesting, where Kratos ventures to a mountain with his son, Atreus. They clearly take a page out of The Last of Us' book, but this is much worse. Neither of the two are as likable as Joel or Ellie, and their relationship does not develop as well either. I don't want to sound like I'm comparing too much to another game, but since they clearly used the other game as an inspiration, it's hard not to. It is cool how the game is all in one take, instead of having separate cutscenes, and their are some interesting side characters, but overall the story is not that great or even close to as epic as the older GoW games.

    I thought that the graphics were great, with several beautiful environments and moments, and the voice acting and sound design was excellent as well.

    Now then, the gameplay. I didn't like it, at all. The combat is clunky and dull, where you have very limited weapons and fight repetitive enemy types numerous times. You mainly use one weapon, an axe, but it gets really really old to slash enemies with it, throw it, and do the same finishing moves over and over again. The boss fights aren't that great or exciting, either. I honestly felt like the combat was like the Witcher or Dark Souls, but more boring and repetitive, reminding me of an early PS3 game.There are some complex puzzles, new for a series, that are relatively fun.

    I am just so disappointed by this game, and do not understand the hype, at all. I know people will say those who don't like it is because it isn't like the older games, but it isn't that. I understand that combat isn't supposed to be the only focus anymore, and the game is supposed t include more of the story and have more nuanced, less brutal/graphic violence. But the combat isn't all that exciting, and with a subpar story and characters, there really isn't much here to be excited about. Other reboots or gameplay changes in series, such as Zelda BoTW, Tomb Raider, and MGS 5 have been great, so I was hopeful for this title. But instead, the changes made here are not successful and have created a very vanilla game. I will say that this is the most overrated game on the PS4.

After finishing the main story the characters still have things to say and there are more locations to explore even if the locations are a bit smaller than the other areas. Tons of side activities which can increase the power of Kratos with new gear and experience points, if you're having a hard time with the main story I would recommend to go off the main path and explore. The visuals are also pleasing to the eye, the art direction is fantastic and not a lot of newer games of this AAA scale delve into the greek mythology, I bought this game mostly to see how they handled creating these areas and I feel they exceeded my expectations. Also no micro-transactions or DLC holding back story content, this is a complete game from start to finish right out of the box. My only criticism is that the gameplay can start off feeling like it's missing something - only allowing the Player a few options to combo enemies - but without spoilers, it will eventually pick up the pace and turn into a very combo driven game, especially on higher difficulties where it's recommended to stun lock foes before they get a chance to hit you (unless they've got poise, in which case dodge). This is an amazing first time user experience, but I haven't found much replay value unless you're willing to give the story another go on the hardest difficulty (having to replay through story sections is tedious unlike games such as Dark Souls where a Player can go at what ever pace they want, this game is designed for the first time user experience). Most games I would recommend to buy on sale, but this is different because of the production value found here. Even People who don't play video games can follow along and immerse themselves in this story which is something special. Expand

I am amazed just how much content is packed into this game and the amount of variety and complexity in the side missions is just astounding. The main story is just as effective if not more so. Kratos is a character to which I love due to his brooding, and bloodthirsty ways of handling situations, that being said he was just a single emotion character. I LOVE this more grounded and emotionally expressive character, there is just so much depth to him now and the way that him and Atreus play off of one another is just captivating. The combat is so gratifying now that the leviathan axe is the primary weapon. There is just so much complexity and depth to the combat that it’s almost overwhelming but that’s put to rest each time you master a new ability. I love just how much the team behind this came together and created something fresh and new while maintaining key staples of what made the franchise so great. I love this new direction and I cannot wait to see how it’s future will unfold. This is an epic masterpiece and one that every single gamer should Experience. Expand

    I haven't smiled and laughed to myself over a video game in quite some time. These are just a few emotions I have gone through in this journey. I'll break it down into categories.

    Gameplay:
    - I thought the videos of Kratos tossing an axe around telling his kid what to do would be boring and repetitive. I was wrong. The amount of depth in the gameplay is astonishing. It's akin to the aggressive style of Bloodborne and the team play of Last of Us.
    - I did not expect such a deep progression system. Many different runes to choose from and upgrade, skill trees, weapon and armor modifications, and other things really give a strong RPG feel to the series.
    - The game is not an open-world sandbox but it plays like one at times. There are side missions to conquer, lore to learn about, collectibles, and secrets awaiting in every area.

    Story:
    - I'm not a huge buff when it comes to Norse mythology, in fact my only knowledge comes from the Marvel Thor movies. I really enjoyed the Greek setting of the prior games, but I am very impressed by the fleshed out characters in the story.
    - Too many spoilers about the story. Just enjoy it.

    Visuals/Technical:
    - It doesn't get much better looking on the PS4. I played on the PS4 Pro with Higher frame rates and I did not notice any dips or any screen tears
    - Did not experience any crashes or freezes
    - I had just one bug I could recall where I was unable to press the o button on an item to progress the story. Simple reloading of the area squashed that.

    Final Words:
    - This game is absolutely phenomenal. If you own a PlayStation you should purchase this now. If you are on the fence about buying one, this isn't going to last you forever but it is just another strong entry of console exclusives that Sony owns.

    The story is good, voice acting and graphics are also good, but combat dynamics are very stale, hugely disappointing and repetitive boss fights (oh why don't you like the same EXACT monster in four different elemental states given to you as if new bosses?), upgrades are very static and relationships between characters are under-done, maybe with the exception of Kratos-Atreus. It is as if nobody else lives in the vast world this adventure takes place other than the 5-6 main characters.

    Overall, it took me about 2 days to finish this in medium difficulty and was just so underwhelmed by the whole experience that I didn't even bother to do post-game ending exploration. Linear stories can be done well (see: last of us), but this game isn't one of them - definitely too short and really anti-climactic ending. (wait, the game is finished?)

    I'm simply giving this game a rating of 10 because it's the best game I've played on the Playstation 4, and I've played my fair share of games. The last game to make me feel this was The Last of Us (playstation-wise). From the start to the finish, it is a fantastic game, the story is truly fantastic in my opinion. I will definitely be 100%ing this game just to pay my respect.

In a world of constant online releases, you guys have shown us that Single Player games can truly be a form of art. Bravo. Expand

    This is the best PlayStation 4 game I have ever played. The story was great , the game play was AWESOME and their take on the Nordic Mythology was really good. The only thing I hated was that the story didn't finished but except that the game is perfect. I would recommend all people to play this game.

    The downgrade is epic in this one and the game is kinda short for all the noise is has generated around. For a regular game is OK, but for a Sony exclusive and for a God Of War is a bit dissapointing.

    The return of the furious Spartan warrior was made well. God of War is already a great contender for game of the year and you shouldn't miss it. [Issue#285]

    Cory Barlog and his team achieved what many thought impossible – despite having changed almost everything Santa Monica managed to preserve that elusive spark that makes God of War game feel like a God of War game. They created one of the defining titles of the current generation and a technical marvel whose stunning beauty in motion words cannot describe. And there’s one more thing. Barlog’s touching reaction to his masterpiece’s scores shows that even in the world of huge budgets, micropayments, loot boxes and sales forecasts there still is a place for artists who pour their hearts into their work. We need someone to remind us of that once in a while. [06/2018, p.38]

    Where most games excel in one single area, God of War manages to deliver on every front, providing players with one of the best experiences we’ve seen so far this generation.
