This Guy Makes A Mean Kratos Statue

By day, Herbert Lowis works as an artist at Propaganda Games, the team currently working on the new Pirates of the Caribbean game. But by night? He’s capable of stuff like this. Seriously, this is a sculpture made by a single man. Not a $300, commissioned piece of adult collectible finery. It’s just…something some guy…

God Of War Novel Is 283 Pages Of “GGGGGRRRRR!!!!”

For all its violence and bombast, God of War is built around a mythology that’s thousands of years old. So the fact somebody is making a novel out of it may not be as ridiculous as you first thought. Then again, since it’s based entirely around the events of the first game in the series,…

God Of War Movie Sticks To Game Plot Like Loincloth To Kratos

A writer over at CC2K claims to have gotten hold of a script for the long-in-pre-production God of War movie. Having read that script, he proceeds to tell us all about it. While a movie project can go through scores of screenplays, and none of what he reveals will be too big a shock to…

Darksiders Preview: Blasts From Pasts

The first game we’ve ever been told will include a “badass door” is also scheduled to be the first game released in 2010. And so much of it seems so familiar. Pay no attention to the 2010 release dates for the next of mythical action champ God of War and the game already occupying the…

Father Knows Best: The Best and Worst Fathers in Video Games

Fathers are easy to find in video games. When they’re not antagonizing their offspring or killed off in the first level, they often serve as our main characters’ major motivation. In honor of Father’s Day, we celebrate dads in video games: from the good to the bad to the “Luke, I am your father kind,”…

The Clips of E3: Day Three & Four

Day three of E3’s clip round up has a lot more gameplay and a lot less hardware to drool over; but you can still get another look at the PSP Go in action. Day four, meanwhile, was slim pickings — although that Fat Princess trailer really had me laughing. The Super Mario Galaxy 2 trailer…

Dante’s Inferno Preview: Looks Like Hell

Is there some game developer’s guidebook that I don’t know about? If so, I need to find it and tear out the page that says “cloning God of War = best idea ever.” To their credit, Dante’s Inferno developer EA Redwood Shores doesn’t shy from their original IP essentially being God of War set entirely…

X-Men Origins: Wolverine Preview: Claws of War

X-Men Origins: Wolverine isn’t a movie game – it’s a God of War clone. Surprised? So was I. After the boss’s brief look at the game, I was hopeful that Wolverine would be an amazing character-driven action game. It’s made by the Marvel Ultimate Alliance team; and even if it’s not relying on the movie…

Guess Who’s Not Directing The God of War Movie?

Director Brett Ratner announced last fall that he is doing a big screen version of Sony hack-and-slash game God of War. This month, it’s announced that he’s not (for the time being). Ratner has shelved plans to adapt God of War, leaving the project to fester in Hollywood development hell. Instead, movie trade mag Production…

Phil Harrison: Why Was God Of War II On PS2, And Not PS3?

With the PS2 now in its last days, we can safely look back and say that, yes, God of War II was the machine’s swansong. But it could have been oh so different! In an interview with 1UP, God of War II man Cory Barlog reveals that, upon first showing the game off to Sony…

Sony Gives Us A Peek At God of War III In February

You thought that brief glimpse of God Of War III from the Spike TV VGAs was all you’d see of Kratos for a while? Nope. Sony will be showing the game off in mere weeks. We just got the invite to check out Kratos’ “final mission in his war with the Gods,” an appointment just…
