God of War III Almost Didn't Have a Sex Mini-Game

10 cred that it's Artemis, that you bang her one to get her to tell you how to take down a Titan.

...The team decided if they really had to include the mini-game, they'd try to make it a core part of the storyline...

Unless I'm mistaken, this probably means we'll be playing as Kratos' parents for the first 15 minutes.

Sex was all over the place.

So was Herpes.

Just because it was there during the era doesn't mean it should be in the game. I fail to see how this mini-game is going to make the game better. People can argue about how its "art" or whatever but ultimately most games just want it into the game because they want some titties.

I never said it would make it better.
while i like games to be authentic and atmospheric it could make it better or worse.
And i agree that most people want it in a game just for the sake of seeing some action.
But like Gore, Cussing, and Chase Scenes, if done right it can add to the game.

It could show the depth of the relationship held between two characters or show what one character is willing to do to reach His/Her goal.

Maybe Kratos will make a baby with Aphrodite and that will be the character for future GOW games. They did say this wasn't the end for the GOW franchise.

Does anyone ever wonder why kratos gets blood whenever he gets it on.

God of War director Stig Asmussen

Best name ever.

Maybe prossies teach kratos the 'piledriver' and he uses it to kill zeus at the end of the game harharahar

 

[Jared]

In my opinion, they should just merit it on it's fun factor. The press can go to hell.

Seriously. They ruin so much!

 

[Distorted Stu]

The sex shows us who Kratos really is! To quote "a mans man", which he is! Also, RED ORBSSSSS <3

 

[thiosk]

I'll guide it into your storyline.

 

[f0re1gn]

I'll be furiously laughing out loud if they put a love line in the story... But, seriously, I doubt GOW3's developers are like That.

Looking forward to it, even though it'll be years until I actually get to play it))

 

[rokkolpo]

I haven't played GW1 or 2.

This seems like a pretty intruiging development decision. I think it shouws exactly the amount of power user press brings to the Dev cycle.

But OT.. meh. If a mini sex game is what takes to make you play a game. I think you are sad. Sorry.

it was a tradition, not the reason.

and if you do it right you get exp points you can use to upgrade your ''weapons''

 

[funksobeefy]

well really with greek gods just up and cheating their wives with animals and such I think that no matter what they do it should fit.

 

[teisjm]

Wait a second, i saw the E3 trailer, and it featured both bare-handed centaur castration, which could quallify as rally hardcore S/M

And then theres the dangling from harpys with slobby tits, possibly foreplay.

Maybe he could rape some huge monster after making it submissive, it could lead to new buyer groups from the japanese rape-sims...

 

[The Hairminator]

Whoa, I, as an xbox fanboy, didn't realize sex was such a big part of the GoW franchise. I have a theory now why everyone is so much in love with that series

I'm so gonna confront the PS3 guys in school about this tomorrow. And also about the PS3 bug.

 

[Sparrow]

Maybe it's a boss battle with Aphrodite?

And you defeat her by,........well, you know!

Playing chess? Tic tac toe? Rock paper scissors?

 

[Arkhangelsk]

Yay! We have one!

Calumon: Why have it a mini-game when it can be a full game! Yay! More fun!

Sorry if I've missed something, but why do you write Calumon on most posts?

OT: Eh, I didn't care much for the mini-game, but I think we already know that Kratos knows sex.

 

[Elemental]

related to the story?!.... fuck...

 

[Phoenixlight]

Would be better to retain their dignity and leave it out.

 

[Xersues]

Yay! We have one!

Calumon: Why have it a mini-game when it can be a full game! Yay! More fun!

Did you... just post in third person as a Pokemon? *blink* I see you do that a lot. Right on... Just wanted to make sure I wasn't reading a schizophrenic post or I really just missed something...

Meh to "sex mini games", we all play sex mini games all the time, seems silly to even have it in a game if its essentially useless to the story. Good on them for trying. I guess if you fail you sleep on the couch.

HEY! i need those red orbs. Those hot, hot, sexy red orbs. They upgrade my weapon.
