God of War 2018 was around 45gb on PS4.
This is twice the size, therefore confirms it'll be twice as good.

@Snake_V5
So would you admire a "skilled" fraudster who stole your identity, spent all your money, destroyed your credit and got you in trouble with the police?

What a stupid comment 😂

@stvevan
Same here. Watching the trailer was a mistake, but one I don't regret because it is so good.

But its not a mistake I'll be making again. Bring on 9 Nov!

Guys, Sony Santa Monica are truly mad people. God of War looks completely insane.
What. A. Trailer.

Just two months away!
It should go gold soon. I'll shed a tear when that happens

Look, CDPR, we don't care.
Where is the current-gen Witcher update!?

Jokes aside, the last version of this ran for about 5 hours and was so long-winded. I hope this one is more to the point.

@Dezzy70
I disagree with you there.
Not all games are supposed to cater to everyone.

I haven't played it either but I'd rather they stuck to the principles of the game, than bend those principles after launch for a few extra sales.

I'm gonna try and avoid this news.

Please, for the love of Odin, keep your headlines as spoiler free as possible. Pretty please!

Nice. Just got the platinum last month. I guess I'm not done with this game just yet.

Correction: the game is not done with me.

Yeah... Its a no from me dawg

We've talked about the price point to death and its boring now.

All I'm gonna say is this looks really good and I wish Rockstar put the same level of effort into GTA

@LiamCroft
In that case, let's never speak of it again. Ever. 😊

No mention of the Everywhere game that's coming from the ex-Rockstar guy?

Ya know... That's the best trailer they've shown thus far.
Starting to reconsider this 🤔

@AinsleyE
It's not that they go nowhere, it's that they take years to conclude.

In other words, you'll get your £8.93 payout for this one in 28 years.

@theMEGAniggle
I just checked, that was a month before launch. This is 9/10 weeks before!

Cool! I don't remember seeing a game go gold two months before release.

As someone who's completed the Arkham games over 15 times combined (including multiple completions of Riddler trophies), I really, REALLY want this to be good. Let's hope.

And the L's for PS Plus Premium keep rolling in

It might not be in Sept, but its coming.

2023 is when we should really start to see the death of cross gen game releases. PS5 supply is improving so its time to kick this generation on.

I'm expecting Sony to blow our socks off to keep the demand high and hit their very punchy sales forecast.

Ahhh you almost had me with the whole "WOLVERINE UP NEXT..."

At this rate, they're gonna push back the World Cup to make way for Ragnarok

From my experience, buying a PS5 is much easier these days.

But getting one that isn't bundled with HFW is almost impossible. I really wish it wasn't.

"We have God of War at home"
😂 Bravo

Didn't the PS4 version get cancelled?

Would've rather heard nothing until the devs were ready to share more about this.
Another unhelpful leak

I'm very impressed. Watching this video makes me think ND are about to raise the bar again.
We're gonna see and learn more about what the PS5 can really do with this remake. And I'm here for it.... When it's £35 or less

@TheArt
Lol the dude walks around with a head tied to his arse that talks to gigantic snakes. "Believable" left the building a long time ago

Returnal.
I'm surprised by how good this game is. Tough. So extremely tough. But boy what a game.

This is the first truly next gen exclusive game I've played and it really shows.

Freya should be a tougher boss fight than Sigrun.
I'm already stressed tf out

"ongoing discussions with key partners... "
Almost sounds like Sony wanted it pushed back to make way for Ragnarok

Wow. Ryan Hurst sounds very calm and reasonable. Great casting choice.

CG trailer is fine with me as I hope they don't release another second of gameplay.

We're all gonna get it regardless.

Picking a winner here feels like choosing between ready salted crisps or a slice of bread. All were pretty mediocre - not necessarily bad - but lacked the 'wow' factor.

@WildFireX
It's funny that nobody has an issue with the fact that the characters speak English, or that some of them have an American accent for a game with a Norse setting.
It's even OK that Mimir has a Scottish accent but god forbid they allow a person with brown skin in the game!
What does that say about you, ya think?

I think we're comparing apples with oranges here.

E3 2016 was a long time ago, and as you say there were so many ways to watch it 6 years ago, including in person.

Also, the E3 2016 video is almost 2 hours long!
The Resident Evil 4 trailer alone has more views than the SoP. I could not use that to draw conclusions about RE4s popularity compared to everything shown in the SoP broadcast, for example.

November, you say? 🤔

I'm now more confident than ever that we ain't seeing this until March/April, as per every previous God of War release.

I appreciate this article!

I only started playing AC games with Odyssey during the first lockdown. I spent about 150 hrs in it and loved it
Valhalla kept me for about 90 hours but I didn't finish it as it got too much.

I always thought Origins would be worse, as it came out first and was presumably improved upon with the following two but that doesn't seem to be the case here or the consensus among most others. Gonna buy this!

For those of us wanting a release date for Ragnarok: this is a good sign

Christopher Judge as Kratos.

I said what I said.

I remember The Witcher next gen update got rated last October but CDPR immediately shot the rumours down and that's still a mile off.

"Keep your expectations low, boy, and you will never be disappointed"

Anything from season's 3-8 is The Simpsons Gold. Impossible to pick a single episode but I'll throw in a few that spring to mind:
Homer Goes to College
Homer and Apu
The Boy Who Knew Too Much

Seasons 9-12 are watchable. Every season after gets increasingly bad.

There's never gonna be a decision that unites everyone.

Bring in new characters (see the Ryder twins or Gotham Knights/Suicide Squad as examples) and you'll get a 'meh' reaction.

Conversely, keep the same old characters and people will be begging for something new and different, as we're seeing in this comment section.

There's no right answer for me. The crucial thing is that it's well written and properly takes into consideration the choices of the previous games.

Another Mafia game!?

Just when I thought I was out...

Maybe there's a limit to the amount of bug squishing that can be done during development?
I'm sure they were thorough and the delays helped, but ultimately this game is absolutely massive.

There have got to be thousands upon thousands of things that can go wrong and you simply can't account for all of them without a significant player base.

More and more these days I wonder what tf happened to Sony.
It's like they've sold their soul.

@Deljo
That price is absolutely mental. I bought a 55 CX 18 months ago for £1299 and I thought that was a steal... Until a few months ago when I bought the 65 C1 for £1315.

How are they getting cheaper!? I thought inflation was wreaking havoc on everything!?

@AdamNovice
Lol didn't you read what I said? I'm LESS excited. I'm the opposite of worked up.

Regarding HFW - you might wanna add a spoiler warning.
All I can add is the execution of that thing isn't very good and would've been so much better if it were PS5 only.

@AdamNovice
I never said they had to. I understand wheels were already in motion and all that.

I remember Cory Barlog saying he had some ideas for the game which weren't possible on PS4. Disappointingly the same is likely to apply for this one and I just wanted it to be the best it could be.
#playhasnolimits

Less excited when it was confirmed as cross gen, and even less excited having played HFW.
Don't get me wrong, I loved HFW but you could see it was held back by the PS4.
I can't go into detail without spoilers but faster loading, 4k 60fps performance and 3d audio is simply not enough to mask the flaws in the whole cross gen approach.
