I didn't grow up with it. Played the first one from 2005 about 8 months ago for the first time.
Playing God of War 2 now. Will play God of War 3 and the PSP games and never touch the reboot.
I'm not "they ruined my childhood, Kratos was my guy and he was so awesome to me and they did this to him", like that.
I just objectively see that God of War PS2 and PS3 era is just some pulpy testosterone fueled Greek adventure, like a Jason and the Argonauts sort of deal on steroids and meth, whereas the reboot is clearly a feminine "muh modern writing" garbage.
Yeah I'm not team "Kratos 4 lyfe" like I am with Max Payne, a character I really love, but I recogonize the difference in the characterization objectively.
Same with Doctor Who. I don't give a crap about Doctor Who. Don't watch it. But I can see from a distance what they're doing with that character as opposed to what it used to be.
I heard theyre not as good, but I figure after the third one, just some hack n slash fun, not expecting much. They run pretty much perfect on the hd remaster on rpcs3 (PS3 emulator).
Just will be playing it for some somewhat similar gameplay, not expecting it to be as good or "epic"
They even ran pretty well on the psp. Does the third one run without issues? I remember playing through all gods some years ago and when i got to the third one it had all sorts of bugs.
But I have to play it there. I could get the PS4 version but the problem is, I've never been able to tap buttons fast enough when they make you rapidly press circle in a quick time event.
When I rented x men wolverine the god of war knock off on PS3, I couldn't progress past the sentinel fight because I couldn't mash circle fast enough.
On PC I can and do use a controller with a turbo function so I can get past those otherwise game enders for me.
The frame rate on God of War 3 is a bit all over the place but it's the only way I can play it and ensure I can get past annoying parts. Maybe they have PS4 controllers with turbo functions but I don't want to spend money for a controller just for that game.
Consoles typically don't support turbo functions because of cheating and online. If my 8bitdo controller can connect to PS4, and turbo works, I'll probably play it there

I wouldn't recommend the psp ones.

No, the third one on rpcs3 doesn't run great.
