God of War III Details Leaked
February 11th, 2009 | Written by Anthony Perez | Topic: PlayStation 3, Rumors
Looking forward to the upcoming God of War III but dismayed at the lack of information? Well, that may have changed. According to a post in the GameFAQ’s message boards, details from an upcoming feature in Game Informer have surfaced.
The information was given to the media at a press event for the game in LA last night, and all information has been embargoed until Friday morning. Unfortunately for Sony, and luckily for you, we weren’t invited to said press event and so said embargo does not apply to us.
Though this is still just a rumor, there is nothing over-the-top enough for us to believe there’s some truth in these details. We’ve done you the favor of bolding the coolest things.
- Unlike God of War 1 and 2 where there are only 15 enemies on screen, there will now be around 50 this time.
- You can ride monsters like the Cyclops and “control”.
- Kratos on the PS2 used 5,000 polygons, now he uses 20,000.
- They made the weapons “better” so it adds more variety. Like with a different weapon, you don’t get just a couple different attacks, but a whole different play style.
-The lion gauntlets are called Cestus.
- Enemy AI’s are a lot smarter. Some of the enemies will be “commanders” and control the other grunts.
- Enemies will look different, even if they’re the same type. Like, even though the skeleton soldiers are in the same category, they will have varied looks, so it’s not like everyone looks the same.
- More boss fights than GoW 1, but less than GoW 2.
- No multiplayer.
- Hades boss fight confirmed.
If I can ride cyclopses through a crowd of 50 enemies, then I’m in. Honestly, we can’t really hope for much more than the same as typically happens with sequels of games as good and popular as the God of War games.
