According to Sony Santa Monica, they will continue to develop new games in the God of War series after this March's God of War III ends the current trilogy, though whether these games will see Kratos return as the protagonist remains to be seen.

Is his story coming to an end soon? Are there even more stories left to tell in the GoW world? Kratos freeing the Titans and waging war against the Gods of Olympus seems like a pretty final turn of events if you ask me.

Well then I hope Kratos doesn't die in GoWIII, because GoW without Kratos wouldn't seem right to me.

I predict God of War: Modern Warfare, featuring Kratos who's now leader of an elite unit of the U.S. Navy Seals trying to save his daughter that's held captive by a Southamerican terrorist. It's a FPS to be released in 2012.

The GOW series isn't nearly as successful as the halo series, so i rekon no. They might build a new trilogy or make new quality games.. i dunno.

Kratos will brutally eviscerate Bayonetta. It will be more critically acclaimed, better loved by gamers, and it will just freaking rock! :D

GOW is more than just combat. I agree with you. But as far as "action" goes, bayonetta WILL NOT be beaten, I assure you.

That is very possible. What I got from Bayonetta was that it went all out with the combat. It's like the designed the combat, and then built the world around it, thus it was very exciting. GoW3, being a sequel, does not have that luxury. It has to conform to the standards ad formulas introduced by the previous entries. And besides, the game already has an established world and backstory based on other works, so they're freedom to go "all out" is a bit more limited. You can't have Kratos putting on pumps and running with dual pistols :P

sounds pretty lame to me. I mean, if they keep producing quality games, but the chances of that happening = very slim. More than likely GoW3 will be the last best GoW title awailable, but hey we can always hope for bigger and better GoW projects!

As we already know, spin-offs don't often turn out too amazing.

Not sure what else they could possibly tell. Considering this is a mythology game, I see Kratos dying in the third one, for real this time.

im guessing it'd be Greek Mythology but not God of War. hmmmmmm...who were the bosses again for GoW 3? i jsut finished GoW2 and there were gods on the balcony of Olympus overlooking Gaia. one is definitely Hades, then Helios, Poseidon, Apollo, and Hermes, and then Zeus.

could they be doing a Hercules game next? or a Jason & the Argonauts? oooohhhh....damn...i'd love that. imagine a Hercules game with him doing the 12 deeds of labour, or Jason & the Argonauts setting out for the Golden Fleece.

Bayonetta didn't have block and the enemy AI was pretty weak. Great game,but if GOW3 can at least do those 2,right then it will have competition.

Incoming God of War War and God of War: Reach.

Seriously though. I think it's high time Kratos step down from the spotlight, even if the series do continue on.

From the article:

"This is definitely the end of the trilogy, but we're [going to] continue to do God of War games.

"We're [going to] be very careful about what we do. We're the keepers of the franchise and we don't want to see it ruined or polluted."

In SW logic, keep making good games is considered milkage, I don't know why either.

I prefer the Egyptian gods over the Norse ones but I feel the Norse would be more fitting for the GoW series

Or maybe I don't want to see Egyptian mythology pooped all over like the Greek one :P

Im not into the series either. I played the first one, I thought the game was average. I didnt get what all the hype was about other than the violence.
