Rumor has it that you'll be playing a viking killing Norse gods. Which would be pretty sweet.

Of course, what are their other options? I feel anything Asian wouldn't appeal to a lot of GoW fans. Roman doesn't count. African? Good luck not being called racist. Native American? That'd be bitchin', actually. Doubt they'd do that though. Seems like more of a Hail Mary kind of thing.

Egyptian? That'd be cool AND everyone likes Egyptian gods.

You now play as Sotark the Roman.

I hear in the first game Minerva guides you in slaying Mars.

Oh please, you talk like Kratos killed the entire Greek Pantheon.

Dude still has the likes of Nyx and Chaos to murder.

Of course, what are their other options?

You could always go with Babylonian myth. Heck, the story writes itself: Gilgamesh is king. Enkidu is sent by the gods to wreck his stuff. Gilgamesh and Enkidu fight. Gilgamesh and Enkidu become bros. Gods kill Enkidu. Gilgamesh kills gods. Roll credits.

There's always the inevitable option of somebody else killing Kratos.

Quote from: Ono, on SFxT's Gem Mode
"But, gems will be a pre-order enticement, too, with certain ones being only available for buyers who reserve the game at specific retailers."

It's either that or Tax Cuts for the rich.

Well, okay, it's both.

Quote from: Ono
There will be no option to disable gems in SFxT. Ono said they're too important to the gameplay.

• Gems are designed to be complex — for advanced players. They really want you to think about which gems will fit your play style and approach.

• Preset gem packages for new players will help them along, though.

• The DLC load times for SSF4 AE are partially a problem with the infrastructure on XBL/PSN. Capcom is aware that this is an issue, though.

• Not all gems in SFxT will be opened up from the get go, DLC and other stuff will make more of them available. There will be a starter set available right out of the gate.

• There are two kinds of gems, one is passive and another is active. One type is geared towards new players, that help with blocking and throwing, and another type of gems that are for high level players, the latter of which adding a more strategic element.

I had no interest in SFxT but that whole gems bit makes me even less interested and I thought that wasn't possible.

You say that like Star Wars didn't take place a long time ago.

the best and also worst thing about ezio is that given the story and setting, everyone else besides him is out-of-genre.
