Ok, I have to say it. The blood spatter ruined the video for me. I just couldn't ignore it. That and the splitting of the bird instead of well, letting go. But really. That blood spatter just made the whole thing laughable. I love God of War but this just had to be said. They-fucked-up.
I'm not complaining about the violence, you fools. I'm complaining about how cheap the effect was. The blood spatter looked like shit. The video looked like shit.
meh, they rendered a generic dark red liquid to spray from whatever he hits... it's really not that bad. It isn't super realistic, no, but then again neither is the whole premise of GOW. I don't know... it looks to me about as bad as the blood that was used when you sawed people in half in Gear of War but not as good as the blood splatter in Fallout 3. I can't believe this is even a subject of conversation btw...
I know you dont have a Wii right now.
ReplyDeleteNeither a Ps2.
But since when do you have a PS3?
Anyways, this calls for......
Oh my Lord....we are gonna have an insane games night....
ReplyDeleteactually...I propose a games week-end. It sucks you dry and fucks up your life for about a week, but I think it's worth it for this one.
ReplyDelete...seriously.
But... could we... do it on...
ReplyDeletevalentine's weekend?
That would be pushing the geekness a bit far, wouldn't it?
plus I can't, I have too many assignments and exams next week.

ReplyDeleteNow that I'm thinking about it, I should just borrow nerdlord's PS2, get up to date with GOW in anticipation of GOW 3.
ReplyDeleteGiven that I've had your Wii for about a year now, that could be arranged.
ReplyDeleteWhat the hell is Bonerpants whining about?
ReplyDeleteBlood spatter?
He's complaining about blood spatter in a game called "God Of War"?
Man, this guy is not aging well.
And come on, the splitting of the bird just made it over the top groovy.
i watched it again... maybe i'm desensitized but godamn, it's not that violent... for a videogame.

Cheese, Bonerpants, cheese...
ReplyDeleteI think you need a good session of NES playing to realize the enormity of your claims.
First it was noses, now it's blood. Napoleon, sometimes it seems your destiny is to be stuck in Dissatisfactionville, population: you.
ReplyDeleteGeeze...Bonerpants, you don't even own a next-gen console and you're complaining about the blood-effects in a trailer? How high are your standards?
ReplyDeleteDon't worry man, when we play the game, we'll just skip your turn. You should't even face the TV either; you might be exposed to bad special effects.
Napoleon, I just started a new pressure group for you:
