GSY Video PS4

While we're still fighting hard on our review of God of War, we can now finally propose some 4K footage without any commentary so you can truly enjoy the game's soundtrack. Inside, you'll find clips recorded during the excellent prologue and a bonus in the form of a video showcasing the wind effect on Kratos' beard and the fur of his armor. That's not all though, we also have a 90-minute Gamersyde Offline in which we present the game to you. Enjoy!
Note: When we recorded the GSY Offline video, there was a loop with the game's audio, which is why you'll heard some echo. Gamersyde will always be Gamersyde.

Driftwood: "bonus in the form of a video showcasing the wind effect on Kratos' beard".

Sath will be pleased, most pleased indeed. :D

Kratos glorious beard blowing in the wind, excellent.
Reminds me of U4's insane arms and chest hair tech for Drake. Too bad Kratos waxes those areas

It´s just me, or I see the best and most realistic light system/engine so far in PS4? Even better than in other huge titles like Horizon and Uncharted 4/Lost Legacy. Maybe it´s just me.

horizon maybe, Uncharted isn't as cartoon fodder as this game. most of the corridors seem like they are just made to be lightshafts and god rays.

Still trying to see more to the game than what has ben shown, and I quaite l like God of War.

It's definately the nicest looking game I've seen to date. But that's not really surprising considering who's made it. God of war 3 on PS3 puts a lot of current gen games to shame.

i ve been playing for 4 hours on hard difficulty and its quite tough but definitely the way to go for me. Enemies are so aggressive, it's great. I tried normal for a while and it felt too easy

warning, if you have a loud ps4 pro gow makes the console sound like a jet engine sometimes. I really wish they had a better cooling system

It's not just the Pro, its the base PS4 too.

Get a compressed air can and blast the dust out. You might need to get at the fan, so that requires opening it up.

my launch PS4 is quiet too. when the PS4 and PRO launched the complaints about loud fans made me think it was ME who had dud consoles and my fans weren't working as they should. lol

Yeah, all it is is just dust collecting. It doesn't take that much on the PS4's because the vents are so thin. Most people would have just put their consoles on the floor and it takes next to no time for it to build up, especially in places like bedrooms or on carpet.

BTW, how long is the campaign in this game?

yeah, i've never put a console on the floor. they even specifically say not to do that.

25-35 hours. apparently was longer for one the combat designers but that was doing 100%

That's not too bad for a game of this type.

Oh, just a word of caution to anyone, if you're on Youtube and have checked videos of this before, some dickheads are already uploading videos of the final boss with it pictured in the thumbnail. Normally I'm not too fussed with stuff like that, but if you plan on playing this without knowing much about it, it's wankerish behavior.

for a 30fps game it feels like 60 fps. so buttery smooth. The game is amazing looking and playing so far, 3 hrs in. :)

its very responsive even at 30fps. I really like this trend with the big sony fiirst party games now. Uncharted 4 and horizon were also great to control

i opened it up and cleaned the fan but it didn't do much. I remember a lot of people saying that some consoles are just generally more loud regardless of temperature, some internal hardware issue. I think even Digital Foundry also said that some of their ps4s are loud while other aren't
Also yeah Youtube's recommended videos sucks. I got 2 huge spoilers from thumbnails and titles
