God of War: Ascension - Meet the Furries, er, Furies |
Listed in: News Tags: god of war: ascension, SCE, sony santa monica
While it seems like there's no mythological figure from Greek mythology that's yet to be plumbed in the God of War series, there are still yet a few more to explore. The Furies, for example. In myth, they're three winged women whose eyes drip blood and exact vengeance or something. Of course, in God of War: Ascension they're quite a bit more monstrous.
There's a chick with big spider legs that can impale innocent Greek soldiers...and it's not clear what the other two do. Whatever it is, it must be horrific. Ancient Greece had to really have sucked with all these monsters running around killing people willy-nilly.
Anyhoo, check out the short introductory vid below for the Furies and let us know in the comments section if you're interested in checking out God of War: Ascension when it comes out March 12th, 2013.

No, you are not right. Hating a great series seems to be popular these days, but that doesn't make you cooler for jumping on the bandwagon. It just makes you annoying, like the rest.
Now, I'm not about to act like the series isn't without its flaws. Nor will I fully condemn you for speaking your mind. To each their own, and all that. However, if you choose to bash a game/series, at least ensure your comment has some basis. Of all the complaints that could be made about GoW, 'boring' is perhaps the furthest from any reality.
A story that, while at times a little too pandering and convoluted, remains gripping at all the right moments. Solid, responsive gameplay throughout. Set pieces with stunning delivery and pacing that keeps things moving just before repetition becomes redundancy. All marks of greatness, and attention to audience - an audience not only expecting familiarity, but relishing it, while revelling in any twists added along the way.
Many gamers complain of a game being too short, yet then whine of a lack of innovation in the next entr(y/ies). GoW has succeeded in sticking to its roots, while tweaking the formula to near perfection (within its own constraints and focus).
God of BORE? Hardly. In many's eyes, (to paraphrase your own poor/hackneyed play on words) God of MORE.
