Yes, I know it was originally for ps1...then gamecube. But they completely started over again each time. Have you seen ps1 footage? The graphics/gameplay are almost unrecognizable. So the game has been in development for 3 years, not ten. I may not be as smart as I think, but I'm smarter than you...at least on this topic.

[FunkJunkyD]

That was the saddest grammar ever. You spelled 3 out of 6 words wrong.

[SUPERTHUNDERSTONER]

WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT ARMOUR??? it looked like some sorta mass effect one...hows that possible?

[ChaosFactor10]

this game didnt sell very much and got bad reviews just because of some minor issues like the camera system, well the camera system didnt use the right thumbstick to look around, it was replaced by how the combat system and attacks were. some scrifices made the combat easier. i really enjoyed this game, and i recommend it to rpg fans...i mean u get to play as a god! how better can it get? god of war is different so u cant really compare that

[pooperdoodle26]

It doesn't follow exactly, but you'll see.

[78slaphead78]

yeah but i peopdered and the armour didnt come the said the armour cards didnt arrive

[Aarzo360]

looks good if u pre-order it in game u get new armour and weapons well thats what the guy that works in game sayed to me

[AlexLococo]

yeah i know that

but the ragnarok ended in the reencarnation of baldur

ok then

i'll play the game

=D

[Delianos]

You have to play the game to find that out, i already beat it.. it was cool but the way i think this is going is that there will be a Prequal telling how Baldurs life was before he was killed..the trilogy btw ends after ragnarok and ragnarok is where the Gods of the Aesir fight againts the Giants one last time The Aesir know that they will die though :)

[AlexLococo]

oh yeah... i get it... but that would make me wonder, if the trilogy ends in the ragnarok, how is frigg doing to make swear to all the things to not harm baldur? or... how is baldur going to know he was going to die? or even more important, how is going an arrow of misteloe going to harm baldur with that armor?

or how is he going to reborn?

[edwardcarnaby]

its norse mytholgy but instead of magic replace the magic with tech like if u were a viking and u saw tech u would think it was magic so this is how its told from a point of veiw like that

[AlexLococo]

so it's really norse mythology combined with technology?:

i mean is it only technology? the giants are palin robots or true jotuns? is there any

non-technology-involved magic in the game? are the men simple men? are the gods simple men?
