    Excellent and exciting combats, a fascinating story, incredible graphics and a new system in general that makes God Of War an excellent game that everyone should try, without a doubt this game took a giant step towards success.

    Plain and simple about this game :

    Graphics 10/10
    Gameplay 10/10
    Story 10/10
    Sounds 10/10
    Value 10/10

    Its really hard to find these types of games nowadays that dont rely on microtransactions or multiplayer to provide a great product with single player experience ,

    Kratos has more emotion in the first minute of gameplay than the entirety of the series before. The action is insane when it comes. And if you let it, the quietness of the game takes you to another realm.

    Amazing game just the first hour is gorgeous, music is amazing making you feel like you are in there and playing as kratos, the fights are brutal as ever people complaining about how it is too much like last of us and other games are just not open to change. I have played both last of us and God of War and trust me it is not the same game.

    This is the God of War I never knew I wanted. It's different from the original trilogy yet so god in so many ways. Combat changed a little, it's up close and personal. But is still deep and is so much fun. Flying axe is a really fun weapon.

    Graphics... my god. This is just so good. No words can describe it. Best looking game on PS4 to date. Maybe next to Uncharted and Horizon.

    Story... people mention The Last of Us for reasons. You have a son. And that son carry some of his traits to you and you carry some of yours to him. It's so fun to watch. They did such a good job.

    And one continue shoot is just perfect. I mean - you are not taken out of the current events even for a minute. You figure out world yourself just like your son. It's so fun. And your son is not useless. He help you with some annoying enemies like the witches.

    And they did not reset the main story. It's a continuation. Events from previous games happened. There is even scar on Kratos chest. I was expecting a reboot or something but they actually pushed it forward. Tomb Raider guys should learn from this. You just do not remove 10 years of story because you think you can make it better.

    Overall - it's a must have for any PS4 owner. And now PS4 is a must have for people who do not own console or own different console. Just like I bought Switch to play Zelda and Mario - if you can you should buy PS4 to play this :-) Then pick up rest of the awesome PS4 exs.

    Amazing 10/10. This game will easily become the flagship game for PS4. Beautifully rendered in HDR, the game looks crisp and amazing, and plays like an action movie. While many sequels over-promise and under-deliver, Santa Monica Studios brings us a ray of hope that games can continue to get even better with each sequel. If you haven't played God of War yet, you haven't played God of War at all.

Just the first hour of the game makes it worth it. This first boss was SO epic, I can't wait to see what's in doors. OMG #Play this game. #Buy it.

Combat is now more face to face which make it deeper and far more interesting from my point of view . Story seems really great , i find it clever that is now placed in a different place with new gods , friends and enemies . Norse mythology is very intriguing and it can absolutely feed more the one god of war game .

And the only dynamic this game shares with The Last of Us is that of a parent and child. The Last of Us was more or less a walking simulator. The gameplay in this is actually fun and the cutscenes aren't just carelessly littered across the experience. And many saying combat is repetitive most likely don't know how to chain combos or use the runic attacks. The story takes a bit of time to pick up, but after this, it's a roller coaster ride. Great voice acting, brilliant visual presentation, good combat system (though the animations are essentially the same for similar enemy types but with a slightly different start) and rewarding exploration. Boss battles are few and not as grand as the other games, but they feel more raw and grounded. You can easily put in 20 hours and more if you like to explore more and fight harder foes. Few complaints I have during gameplay is the FOV sometimes pulls in too close and enemies sometimes get stuck on walls while volleying them up. This game is in no way innovative. But it takes all the good things across many different genres and seems to have put everything together really well. In that sense, this is a top notch game and should be a benchmark for games of this type in the future. Expand

    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...

    There are people who are giving this game 0/10?

    They are obviously either too broke too buy the game, too broke to buy a ps4 or just kids who are bored? In no way this game deserves a 0/10. Maybe 8/10 or 7/10 if you dont like too much cutscenes. But giving it 0/10 is too childish and immature. You need to give way more strong reasons for this. You shouldnt be allowed to rate it so

    Just because of the pure quality of sound, music, voice acting, graphics, lack of microtransactions and story this game deserves at least 7/10.

Create a game that players who enjoy video game narrative will love. Now it’s time to sit back and listen to the Fortnite, Call of Duty players and maybe some salty gamers who do not own a PlayStation chime in after watching a 10 minute video on YouTube explain how bad this game is and how much better a loot box micro transaction driven game is so much better.

    All the negative comments come from ones who only favor one platform over another. They are not true gamers, just individuals that stay on one side off the fence.
    Games like this drive the industry forward. Forcing the others to work as hard if not harder to make a great game. Competition is good.

    Honestly hands on one of the best if not the best game I've ever played. Everything seems perfect or near perfect from the graphics to just frames and mobility. Doesn't even feel like I'm locked in at 30FPS. To be honest, I just don't have the words to describe this great game. Just play it, you're doing yourself a disservice by not doing so.

This game is THE BENCHMARK of ALL GAMES yes i mean all games, all you other so called aaa studios please, please, please take a look at god of war and everything it presents...

    From the very start theres no bullshlt, its just straight into the game with beautiful graphics that roll straight into gameplay sometimes i dont even realise the cutscene is finished haha.
    From the very first 15 mins its all happening and the way it captures the fights and draws you into its brutal fighting nature, just an amazing experience...

    The SOUND holy crap, its crisp, its spot on and it captures your attention with its very detailed voices, ive gotta say the "stranger" voice looooove it

    The story is deep, its engaging, its father & son love
    While ive only played a little bit so far, by the end of this masterpiece i will be putting it in a sealed glass display cabnet as to preserve a diamond of gaming

    THIS GAME SHOULD NOT BE SCORED ANY LOWER THAN 10

    if its not in your category or pallet of gaming, DO NOT REVIEW

    Isn't it funny how all of the microsoft exclusives are trash/mediocre?

    Sony has tons of trash/mediocre titles too like order 1886 and kill zone shadowfall but at least they have must haves. Something the xbox one brand lacks in spades lol. Name me one single freaking must have exclusive on the xbox one? YOU CAN'T! Also you can get xbox one games on pc so why even bother with the xbox

Name me one single freaking must have exclusive on the xbox one? YOU CAN'T! Also you can get xbox one games on pc so why even bother with the xbox one? Getting a 360 makes a lot more sense... Getting a wiiu makes a lot more sense. Getting a ps3 makes more sense. Getting a switch, ps4, and or PC makes a lot more sense. The only thing that would make less sense than getting the xbox one is getting into trash micro transaction phone games like candy crush lol.

    That being said... Ps4 has must haves like bloode borne, zero dawn, and now it has god of war 4 which is basically... Game of the year material. Red dead 2 will probably win it which is a shame because rockstar is going to put in pay to win micro transactions for both multiplayer and campaign apparently. Lets hope that changes... But for now it's looking pretty lame... UNLIKE God of war 4 which is a great game. The only reason I didn't give a 10 is because no game is perfect as every game eventually shows you something that you dislike about it. This game however nails story, visuals, and fun game play at the same time being something a little new that we haven't quite seen before in gaming. It basically nails what gaming needs these days in the dark age of gaming... Don't believe me when I say dark age? Cod, destiny, over watch, battle front, battle field, 343 halo games, phone app games, predatory business practices of micro transaction dude bro online pay to win random nube fest bro shooters are crapping on the gaming world. Dark times indeed. Which is why it's nice to see a gem like god of war 4 make a appearance and show the world how you make a freaking video game son!

    I know I sound like a xbox one hater but to be honest... Xbox one has the best online for smooth internet and features. The console is the most powerful if you got the xbox one x. And it's controller is the best for console shooters. Also the backwards compat for both orig/360 is great. Other than that though it's pretty much garbage compared to the modern day competition. I own 4 xbox 360s and have played about 20000 online matches across several bungie halo games. Also own a modded xbox orig with 30000 games on it. So when I say the xbox one pretty much blows... You know I'm being realistic. I would love for the xbox one to be great but no... It sucks for the most part because of one VERY important reason. NO MUST HAVE EXCLUSIVES! Perhaps xbox one will change my mind and make me call it a great console if they can at least deliver us 2-3 must haves before the generation is over. AT LEAST! Come on microsoft! Get it together man! Stop canceling games and giving us garbage! Sea of who?

    God of War returns with a fresh formula that will rather anger long time fans or leave you wanting more of this amazing and beautiful world.

Kratos has long left the world of Greek mythology and now lives among the land of Norse mythology, with the world being heavily inspired by Northern European countries such as Iceland. The environments you will visit in your journey are jaw dropping, with some of the best visual graphics and design to date. Kratos unlike previous entries in the series is a more mature and relatable character, but is still the angry and scarred demi god we all know and love. Joining him in his journey is his son Atreus, who acts as a reliable partner in combat... sometimes. The story plays out well with both protagonists developing with each other as father and son with a beautiful and memorable cinematic experience. However, the gameplay itself is God of War's weakest new feature, with the player left to build up an incredibly small arsenal of weapons and the questionable removal of jumping. Combat visually is impressive to begin with, but becomes very boring very quickly with the standard enemies of the game simply doing the same light and heavy attacks with an optional shield parry. Boss battles however do not suffer the same curse, with some of the most epic and stunning fights in the series. The only thing I found to be wrong with the boss battles are the lack of interesting Gods to fight, with the game only offering 3 to fight with the rest being larger and more unique monsters. As a fan of the original God of War games I can only concluded that this will be a very hit and miss experience with other fans, but I think this is the soft reset the franchise has needed for a while. The game isn't perfect, but it's far from terrible. I'm very excited to see what comes next. 8/10.  Expand

    God of War is the perfect example for why games don't need to be open-world. It employs the wide linear style to maintain the pace of the story, something open world games simply cannot do.

Graphically it is the best game of the generation so far, with stunning visuals and superb facial animations. The game is a complete package, and does not string along players for DLC, paywalls, and microtransactions. It may not be bloated with content and side quests like The Witcher 3 but it has an incredible amount of content that will have your hands full for upwards of 100 hours if you want to complete everything in the game.

    Anyone complaining about the combat being simple are flat out lying. There are literally dozens of button combinations, combo strings, and chargeable abilities for Kratos alone. That isn't even considering Atreus' gamut of support abilities which are also controllable by the player. Playing on the easiest setting you can hack and slash through the game, but that is exactly what easy difficulty settings are for. You absolutely cannot play that way on the two highest settings without dying literally hundreds of times. If you want to challenge yourself in this game with higher difficulties, you absolutely must master parrying, shield play, spatial awareness, and crowd control.

    The vast majority of 0 reviews here are the typical troll fare that can be expected on Metacritic. None of them have actually played the game and are salty Xbox and Nintendo fanboys that have nothing better to do since their consoles only have a handful of decent games. Comparisons to the Last of Us? Are you serious? God of War is nothing like the Last of Us, except for the fact that it has an adult and a child as the two main characters. That's some cutting edge analysis right there.

    Gameplay: Surprisingly deep with lots of different types of enemies. The need of Atreus bow shot is paramount though like me, some of you might forget it exists.
    Story: No spoilers so I shall say Epic in scope and surprises you in ways you won't imagine. You'll scream in excitement and sometimes laugh.

    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]
