III

Posted: 08/19/2009

I’m in a bit of a gaming funk at the moment.  The only games I really want to play aren’t out yet.    And ironically, they are all the third installments of successful franchises: Forza 3, Diablo III, and now God of War III.  Check out these new GoW III screen shots from Gamescom in Germany:

They ooze perfect art direction.

So completely bad ass.  I am also realizing I’m a sucker for winged human form.  First it’s Morrigan and Lilth from Darkstalkers, then comes Kaelyn the Dove from Mask of the Betrayer, then Aion goes and hands out a set of wings to anyone over level 10, and now Kratos sprouts some epic feathered appendages of his own.

I’m so easily manipulated.  Here, take my money.  Tell me Mario & Luigi: Bowser’s Inside Story is a third installment as well, and let’s you fly, and I’ll plunk down cash for a pre-order for that right now too.  Just kidding.  You go have fun giving Bowser a rectal exam.  I’ll be playing GoW III, ripping Icarus a new one.
