Abstract: When Sony Santa Monica revealed its first trailer for God of War at E3 2016, I found myself skeptical. Despite having loved the original God of War, I grew sick of it by the third game. Kratos had gone from a unique, exciting character to a single-note...

We have to wait for the next sequel
So far we've really enjoyed the game A LOT. The father and son is a great combo when it comes to fighting. Listening to their conversations is cute and interesting at the same time. Though Kratos don't talk much because he's a man of few words, but Atreus...
