Do you think that God of War needs to be revamped?

God of War is one of the best video game series that Sony has ever came up with. I thoroughly enjoyed God of War 1 to 3. However, I think that the series is getting a bit old. The combat is still the same since the first God of War. The graphics always get a revamp with each iteration but that's about it. I think that God of War needs to be revamped and revitalized in order for it to reach unprecedented heights again. What do you think?
 
Personally, the updates they give the game per version/release is enough to keep me interested, but I get what you're saying. God of War is really all about being the top hack and slash and we are just so used to it being grand that it being a surprising game is almost a part of its character. I'm just worried that they will start putting in too much gimmicks into it under the assumption that it actually contributes to the gameplay. However, the company behind this game is one of the developers that I actually still trust, so I'll just have to do that once again for this one, I'm sure they will come up with more creative ways to make it fresh again. I just don't want it to be so different like what Tomb Raider has gone through, even though the new version is still a very good game.
 
Well, i only played the first and the third one, and unfortunately i ain't too interested in the series. It's a nice concept, but the gameplay feels shallow after playing games like Devil May Cry 3 and Ninja Gaiden Black. But maybe that is because i ain't much into Greek mythology...
 
I'm with BlackSolaris on this one. I've played some of the series, and it feels pretty basic and repetitive to me, especially after playing other similar games like Devil May Cry. I understand why it's become so popular - it really does seem to be THE hack and slash game these days - but each game in the series seems to be basically the same as the one before. If the series were to continue, I'd like to see it try something just a little different. Maybe not as drastic as the Tomb Raider reboot, though that was handled excellently and was a great game, but just to add something new to the series instead of sticking with the tried, tested, and true 'safe' route.

That being said, I'm really interested in the mythology behind the series, and I think that if they were to change their gameplay mechanics in some way I'd be more likely to give the series a shot again.
 
I have to disaggree on here, I think God of War is still one of the best games Playstation creates. Not only is the gameplay unique and fun but the story line is one of the most addictive ones I've found on any game on any platform. Again that's just my opinion.
