God of War 3 dependent on you buying God of War 2!

We're not going to go over the angle that God of War may make an appearance on the PSP sometime in the future. That's great and all, but we'd really rather see a PlayStation 3 adventure involving Kratos and some pretty intense fighting. If you want a God of War 3, it seems David Jaffe and company will respond to sales and reception of the second game.Cory Barlog, game director for GoW2, had this to say about the production of the third title: "...it's really early; it's not like, "Yes, we're going forward." It's more like, "If this goes well on the second one, what would we do on the third one?" It will really be dependent on sales and fan response to GoW II." Sweet. We hope that the team doesn't have a lot of trouble working with the PS3 -- we'd like them to do the best they can and they wouldn't settle for anything less, would they? So, guys, buy God of War 2! It'll be awesome and we'll get a third. What's to lose, except $50 or so?

"What's to lose, except $50 or so?" $50 and quality time with wife.

God of War 2, with it's critical reception, should be a million seller without batting an eyelash. To suggest the "wait and see" attitude is just to try and hype up more sales. You best believe Sony is lining their pockets for a God of War 3 on the PS3.

It actually is ALREADY a million seller. Sony sent out a press release yesterday saying that there are already over a million preorders.
I think it's probably gonna sell just fine. ;)

Personally I didnt like God of War 1.
Its just a hack and slash with a rather mundane combo system, albiet a good story but the story is only so much on a video game.
Its not a game I will be buying, or renting. The game looks exactly like its brother, plays exactly like its brother, except this time you get a rapid fire bow and arrow? Sounds a bit lame if you ask me. I'll stick to games like Devil May Cry.
GoW is a yawn-fest.
Enter the rampant GoW fanboy-ism.

ok ok, you are right, it can't be compared to Devil May Cry, but you know what? even the developer said it...
cmon, give it a chance, the game its just on its second chapter, Devil May Cry has had 3, and althought I like the 3 of them, the 2nd one was hated by many.
meh, I just wished this serie would have started on the ps3, it would have been MUCH better since there were many ideas that the developers couldn't include on the game (taken from the extras part of the GoW game), I would have liked to see that Iccarus wing's lvl

God of War was a sweet game, and every single person who has played the sequel says that it's as good or better.
Huh. Bashing on the ps2 is something new, isn't it? I thought we were all supposed to gang up on the ps3.
