The editors didn't like

  • Finding all 51 of Odin's hidden ravens is a bit of an exercise in patience and exploration
  • Entire areas of Midgard remain locked away until optional key items and quests are undertaken

  • Tougher enemies are more frustrating than fun
  • A few graphical stutters
  • We have to wait for the next sequel

  • Abstract:  Video games as a medium have done a lot of growing up over the last few years.The latest game in the franchise takes the bold move not of absolving Kratos of the misdeeds of his past, but of making Kratos himself aware of them. This new God of War, presen...

  • God of War's reboot is a triumph. Santa Monica Studios has managed to somehow make a raging monster into a compelling character without squandering everything you know Kratos for. His relationship with Atreus is nuanced and well-developed, and more import...

  • Best in class HDR graphics, Emotional story, Deep layers of customisation, Intuitive combat, Stunning return for Kratos
  • Some might miss the old frantic pace, We don't but some might
  • To reinvent such a well-known game series is brave, but this new God of War is both a modern masterpiece and a love letter to existing fans. It brings the combat system bang up to date while slapping on a dose of some of the best visuals we've seen in thi...
