Stig Asmussen hopes Dante’s Inferno is a threat to God of War III

godofwariii

God of War III’s Stig Asmussen has told CVG that he hopes EA’s upcoming actioner Dante’s Inferno gives God of War III a bit of competition.

“Some of the guys who used to work on GOW are working on Dante’s,” he said. “Really good guys. I hope they make a fantastic game that serves as good competition for us. I think using Dante’s Inferno as a theme could really cook into something special – it is a very rich world to draw from.

“As far as a threat to Kratos goes, I hope so. We need more great games in this genre.”

Other than a few trailers and screens, he had not seen much of the game, but is aware that preliminary thoughts on the title are positive.

Read on through the link to find out more on Kratos’ latest adventure, and why Asmussen called Devil May Cry 4 “Game Developers May Cry”.

Good stuff.

Rumor says that Ready at Dawn will be bringing everyone’s favorite Spartan back to PSP.

Supposedly, the God of War: Chains of Olympus developer is hard at work on another installment in the series.

RaD co-founder, Didier Malenfant, responded to these chatter with: “You know that even if we were [making the game], I couldn’t answer your question.”

An unnamed Joystiq informant also mentioned that the game may be revealed in some form at E3 in June.

Fingers crossed.

No God of War movie in director Brett Ratner’s future

Last fall, Brett Ratner said he would be bringing God of War’s Kratos to the big screen.

Looks like his plans have been shelved.

Instead, he’s to join forces once again with Chris Tucker in a swindle comedy called Trump Heist. Eddie Murphy’s in it, apparently.

God of War fans across the globe are now breathing a collective sigh of relief.

Kratos rumoured as Soul Calibur IV character

The latest issue of EGM is rumouring that God of War’s Kratos is about to be announced as a Soul Calibur IV character.

At least it’ll be a better fit that Vader and Yoda. No idea if there’s any truth in this at all. Thanks, NeoGaf.
