One of the topics that Barlog touched on is the mythology that God of War is based on. Barlog revealed that the developers in fact considered three different mythologies before deciding on creating a story that is informed by Norse mythology. The other three candidates were Egyptian, Inca, and Hindu mythology. After the first round of elimination was over, only Egyptian and Norse mythologies were left to be considered for the game....

Xbox has fully committed and invested in its Game Pass, adding huge games to the service and planning to have some new releases available for it on day one as well. Plus, with the recent Microsoft acquisition of Bethesda, the list of high-profile games on Xbox Game Pass has expanded significantly. Last November, PlayStation teased a new model like Xbox Game Pass, but no further information has been given as of yet....

For those unaware, Jaffe headed the project Drawn to Death which came out in 2017, one year before the extremely successful God of War. Unfortunately, this project did not share in the success nearly as much as God of War, and saw terrible reviews and quite a bit of backlash. RELATED: God of War Anniversary: The Next Steps for Kratos on PS5 Until now, it wasn’t entirely clear how this affected Jaffe, and his success just one year later with God of War made it seem as though the game’s failure didn’t bother him much....

As Barlog has explained in past discussions, he and his team at Santa Monica Studio want the next God of War’s gameplay and story, as well as the character of Kratos to be a meaningful and engaging evolution from previous entries, but making the next installment in the franchise an open world didn’t seem appropriate to the transformation process. The Santa Monica Studio creative director even said, “I knew right away that I did not want to make an open-world game....

Odin has many differences from both his Marvel Comics counterpart, and the source material of the Norse Mythology in God of War: Ragnarok. As one of the most prominent characters in Mythology, and the ultimate bad guy in God of War: Ragnarok, there’s a lot of explaining to do about Odin. Spoilers Ahead 8 Odin’s Death One of the biggest mysteries, but well-known fates of Odin, is that he was destined to die in Ragnarok....

At the end of God of War Ragnarok, Thrud, Thor’s daughter, can be overheard mentioning an unknown object, and stating that she plans on setting off to find it. While those who have finished the game probably have a good idea of what that mysterious object could be, they’ll have to continue adventuring for just a little while longer after those initial end credits roll to find out for sure....

Indeed, given that God of War Ragnarok still has several days to go until release, seeing the internet so inundated with them can be quite discouraging. One could argue that they are not as bad as The Last of Us 2 leaks that appeared online ahead of its release, but the fact is there’s enough out to ruin key moments of the experiences. Fans are encouraged to avoid all social media, as well as mute several keywords to stay fresh as possible....

Godfall has been one of the many PS5 games that saw trophy lists released early, with multiple trophy-tracking websites quickly posting the list. In Godfall, players will be able to earn two gold, nine silver, and a whopping 34 bronze trophies. The list does not seem very difficult, though players should prepare for a bit of a grind if they have their eye on the game’s platinum trophy.

Interest is understandably high as a result, but Counterplay Games will be keen for it to have a lasting positive impact. The company has secured external funding as they look to gain triple-A status for Godfall, which should help to avoid the financial issues suffered by launching previous game Duelyst through a Kickstarter campaign. When will Godfall be released? Godfall has been confirmed to be released during ‘Holiday 2020’, but we have no specific release date just yet....

Shoi Caballes was killed on Wednesday in a tragic accident at a Palm Harbor gas station. Two of her children survived the explosion after trying to save their mother, which was caused by a driver unintentionally parking their car into a pump. The collision pinned Cabelles against a dislodged gas pump that soon caught on fire. Following the tragedy, the baseball coach at East Lake High School set up a GoFundMe page to assist the family....

In the video, Nuala Mckeever, @nualamckeever_, can be seen surprising each of her family members in turn, filming their emotional reactions. At one point she greets her father, who acts with considerable surprise, “Dad just couldn’t stop crying, no words” she says, while her mother can be heard saying, “Oh my God, oh my God my child!”. Australia only ended its mandatory COVID isolation requirements on October 14, 2022, as it ended the “emergency phase” of its response to the virus....

The France international left Arsenal for their Premier League rivals in January, but he has managed just one goal in eight games. Despite that below-par return, Giroud said he was happy with how he has settled at Chelsea, although he is eager for more. “I am very happy about how I’ve adapted to Chelsea. I’ve been very welcomed there,” he told a news conference. “I feel great and have a special relationship with the number 10, playing behind the front striker whether it is Eden [Hazard], Willian or Pedro....

Mourinho’s transformed Man Utd must not repeat Alamo act The France forward joined Laurent Koscielny and Francis Coquelin in committing his long-term future to the Gunners after impressing for them of late. The swiftness of his new deal is in stark contrast to Alexis and Ozil, with talks dragging on and the stars’ futures at the Emirates Stadium unknown. However, Giroud remains optimistic that the situation surrounding his attacking team-mates will soon be resolved....

Martin was a last-minute commit in the 2017 class. He then dove in a swimming pool with Michigan coach Jim Harbaugh. Everybody overreacted, even though Martin didn’t catch a pass for the Wolverines last season. MORE: One big thing from each top-10 class Fast forward to 2018, with the Wolverines coming off a five-loss season. Four-star linebacker Otis Reese flipped from Michigan to Georgia. The Wolverines fell out of the top 10 recruiting classes, creating another reason to freak out about the state of the program heading into Harbaugh’s fourth season....

Now, the malicious AI, or rather the actress (Ellen McLain) who voices the fan-favorite Genetic Lifeform and Disk Operating System, was outed on the Twitter-verse by her husband, announcing that McLain will be voicing a character in Valve’s “New Game” - for science of course, you monster. The notorious tweet from John Lowrie (the voice of Team Fortress 2’s Sniper) has yet to be retracted, or flushed down an Aperture Science vacuum tube, indicating that maybe even the mighty GLaDOS can’t erase everything on the Internet:...

Beck, who has a reputation for hyperbole and a history of peddling conspiracy theories, flagged the Fed’s repo market activity this week in which the central bank lent billions of dollars to major institutions to keep them liquid overnight. Ordinarily, banks lend this cash to each other. It works by a bank offering up high-quality assets as security on a loan, which is typically then repaid the next day. The purpose is to ensure that banks have enough cash on hand to fund their operations each day....

It was an odd remark coming from a man appointed by the president of the United States. And yet it contained a remarkable truth. For more than two decades, a bipartisan collection of politicians, academics, business leaders and policy “experts”—call them the “Uniparty”—devoted much of its energy to fighting for, and later defending, an unquestioning commitment to the free flow of people, goods and capital around the world. So closely synced were the bipartisan coconspirators that their arguments and talking points were virtually indistinguishable....

Of course, the publishing industry has long performed what amounts to a miracle of market renewal, making the Good Book a perennial hit through endless repackaging and niche selling. Among the most memorable recent creations is the “Drink Deeply Bible,” which comes with a canteen for the spiritually and physically parched (or for folks who like their metaphors literal). The Bible Society in Australia has converted Scripture into audio files, e-mails and text-message bursts, as in: “In da Bginnin God cre8d da heavens & da earth....
