[QUOTE="Thunderdrone"][QUOTE="bf2nutta"]Yes MadWorld is immature.... bf2nuttaThen God of War is Soulja Boy of videogames Who or What is Soulja Boy?!??!?!? The very definition of mature. You aint Harcorz till you know Soulja Boy
First of all, just because a few random people called Mad World immature, doesn't mean that the game is actually immature. Secondly, the difference between Madworld is that it comes off more as comical violence, and gratuitious gore for the sake of gore (NG2 was flirting with this). In GoW it is pretty bloody and brutal but all this goes to show Kratos' character. All the blood and brutality perfectly capture the brutal character that Kratos is.II_Seraphim_II
i just dont even know what to say to this. i hope it was meant in to be ironic, because if so, you are a potential comedy legend; if not, the same applies for all the wrong reasons.

So Kratos is brutal because its part of his character but the same cant be applied to Jack Caiman? lol okay
God of War is a serious game. Madworld is like a comic book. So people are going to base maturity on what kind of story it unfolds. DethSkematikGod of War is a serious game? wut
Question, though...who called Madworld immature? Haven't heard that one from anyone. :PDethSkematikAre you serious? Even some dumb "journalists" joined in on the stupid fest. I'm sure if you search some old MW GS topics you'l be surprised.

Im not saying Jack isn't brutal. Im saying the way the respective games are portrayed is what people bring the "maturity" claim for. Im not saying that I agree with them ( I actually enjoy madworld a lot) im just telling you why. The whole style and gameplay of MadWorld has more of a comic feel to it, while GoW is more serious.THEN WHAT THE HELL IS THIS?

Graphics that can't be done on Gamecube. Something Madworld 2 is lacking.

Try and remember that Greek mythology was brutal and disturbing. Though, yes God of War 3 is bloody, the developers didn't want it there just because "well it looks awesome" it's there because of the setting. I just hope it doesn't get banned in Australia. :(No one ever said that about Mad World.
We do tend to agree that VIOLENCE alone does not make a game ADULT or MATURE.
That's the same thing God of War has been doing since it started, only, it's more detailed due to graphics.bleehumI think GOW was pretty brutal and over the top since the first game. And I love it every time Kratos does something that makes my eyes go wide. Kratos will always do that one thing you never thought you'd see a game character do thats why he's so awesome.
SO now GoW getting bashed for being too violent???lol Wow the fanboys never quit on here. If the game is so violent dont play it. Simple as that. The GoW series has always been violent its just that now the PS3 allows that violencew to be seen in even more detail. This game will be so great when it releases. Im looking forward to it. The violence in Madworld was over the type and very funny to me. It was a good game.
Madworld was violent, but it didn't fit the game as well as it does with God Of War. I mean, Greek Mythology is violent and epic, and that's two things the previous titles have brought in abundance and this next title promises in great generousity than ever before.SO now GoW getting bashed for being too violent???lol Wow the fanboys never quit on here.

err I think you missed the point... what the TC was trying to say was why are games like MadWorld getting called Immature and a God of War 3 is not.... God of War isn't a great example.... if you read the Iliad or Odyssey they were damm graphicSO now GoW getting bashed for being too violent???lol Wow the fanboys never quit on here.

Who's bashing GOW. I own and enjoy GOW1 and 2 alot. Just wanted to see what the "teh imature" crowd had to say now that we are talking about an HD exclusive. Somehow, Kratos cutting open a centaur's belly while its intestins fall out is okay now with the kewl boyz.SO now GoW getting bashed for being too violent???lol Wow the fanboys never quit on here. coltsfan4ever
Madworld was violent, but it didn't fit the game as well as it does with God Of War.clembo1990^ This is what i mean.
both are pretty "immature". I mean seriously, Kratos was completely made to appeal to the blood hungry young male audience. OntainExactly

Im just thinking back a few days about another thread on here crying about how GoW 3 may be going to far with the violence. I guess people want Kratos' enemies to spurt sparkels and bubbles when he rips them apart. I read both the Iliad and Odyssey in high school and I loved them. The GoW games have always been violent and I really dont understand why some people have an issue with it. Im not attacking the TC or anybody in this thread. Just saying how I feel.SO now GoW getting bashed for being too violent???lol Wow the fanboys never quit on here. If the game is so violent dont play it. Simple as that.

Just saying how I feel.Homer is the perfect example of why God Of War is right on the money. Those epics had such a wide appeal for their violence, adventure and hero worship. Kratos is basically a badass Odysseus who defies the Gods to such a point that he becomes one. In ancient greece you'd get beheaded for telling a story like that; that only makes this story ten times cooler.coltsfan4ever
Why didn't the cyclops just swat Kratos off? He just flailed his hands around like an idiot.killab2oo5
I wondered the same thing..... kinda stupid really.... its not like Kratos did it quickly b4 he had time to react.... I mean if someone has their hand on my eye, pulling on it.... I'm probably gonna do more than just flail my arms wildly in the air.
Pulling his eye out is awesome.... but couldn't they make the creature make an attempt to save his eye... I mean c'mon he's only got 1.

Totally irrelevant...and MadWorld 2?

It's actually very good but some people dont realize it because they just think of the game as a button masher.[QUOTE="coltsfan4ever"]I got the point.

How the hell is it ok to show somebody's head being ripped off and not swear on this forum? It's a bloody joke.clembo1990
Or show nudity? I always thought it was absolutely hilarious, that people will let kids watch movies with people dying all over the place.... but "oh no Johnny you can watch this.... it shows a womans breasts for 5 sec" I really don't get it.
Forget movies even... look at games....Shooting people in the face or hacking at them with sharp objects in about 30-40% of all games that release.... but a game comes out where your character can have relations with another character... and.... "OMG THIS IS TERRIBLE... ALERT THE MEDIA, OH THE CHILDREN"
I just sit back.... and laugh at how absolutely ridiculous people are.
Madworld isnt as violent as God of war, not even in the same context.
Its just comical violence against realistic violence.
Some would say its part of the gameplay aspect.
The graphics department do help a lot, without a doubt.
Dead space is pretty sickening and gory if i say so myself.

This below is not in a direct comment to you Seraphim, just the topic Games arnt supposed to be mature thought out philsophical arguments. They are games. i hate the people who go around saying something is hardcore. i hate the word. Games are games, some are more violent then others. the amount does not determine if the game is hardcore or not, or immature

I'm all for showing the world as how it is. It's just the double standards that **** me off even more.[QUOTE="Ontain"]both are pretty "immature".

Just because its meant to cater to a certain demographic doesn't mean it's automatically immature. :? you missed the blood hungry part. blood hungry young male entertainment is almost always immature. there may be some exceptions but i don't see this as one.
