-God of War: Ascentions, is set for release on March 12th for the Sony Playstation 3.

-"We had felt that there was a story that hadn't been told yet," Todd Papy stated, in a recent interview. "There were some other things that felt like it would make an interesting God of War game." He specifically mentioned multiplayer, which is new to the series. "I started working on it December 2009. We were finishing up God of War III. On the drive home, after crunching, 2 or 3 in the morning, this is what I would think about. I was thinking about what we wanted to do. We talked about story. One of our designers got Kratos vs. Kratos working in his spare time."

-With making a prequel, of course, Kratos will have to change. He doesn't come out as the same warrior that he is at the end of the trilogy. With that in mind, Papy said Santa Monica Studios purposefully took out some of the pirouettes and acrobatics he does. The game director also said that they tone his volcanic ire and make him slightly more human.

-Thoughts on this title? Are you worried that this game will be 'more of the same', or are you excited for this new title?

God of War: Ascension This link leads to another informative Gamespot GoW: Ascentions thread.

God of War: Ascensions has released and is the weakest entry in the console series, receiving an 8.0 from Gamespot.

Thoughts?ShadowofSonic
it's been good so far, the camera gets irritating sometimes and the enemies are annoying at times when Kratos doesn't really do what i want. But in everything else, it's good. Gamespot gave this game an 8.0

Yeah, Gamespot said the multiplayer was exactly what I thought it would be. Tacked on and uninteresting. Shame, because it could've been fun.

I think that it's just an excuse for another GoW game with multiplayer thrown into the mix.

Do you guys want one final game to finish the series, or would you prefer they just leave it alone now?

I hope it ends. The series looked tired, I don't know what kind of innovative gameplay element they could pull out of the series.

I think they should just create a series of videos where Kratos brutally kills characters the gaming community dislikes.:| I know it sounds violent, but it would be hilarious. I'm picturing Rico from Killzone right now.:P
