I think the game reminds me of some other awesome game of same type of storyline and gameplay. If I could just remember it..:\

microsoft first copied god of war to gears of war.Now after the name they are competing with the game itself.stupidity by microsoft.
 
Microsoft has not developed either titles, they have only published them. EPIC games developed Gears of War and they have not copied anything. If using the terms "of war" copying God of War, then I guess Warhammer 4k: Dawn of War has also copied it's sub-title from God of War. But wait...that game released before God of War. So technically, God of War has copied it's title from a Warhammer title.

As for Bloodforge, it has nothing to do with God of War. It's just another hack-en-slash title and an XBLA game. Microsoft didn't pay Climax studios to create this game, which has no relation to God of War. So yes, stupidity by Microsoft.

I know.But does that means they are not at all involved?

How do you know?

I commited a crime and i have an alibi.Court says i am not guilty.Then really am i innocent.
 
Although I don't pay heed to IGN's ratings these days, the Metascore stands at 52%? I'll pass no thanks!
 
Just completed the game and it turned out to be much better than I excepted. As always, a decent game falling prey to shoddy reviews. If you're hack-en-slash genre fan, then you'd probably wouldn't want to miss this one. For an XBLA title, it was pretty long. The only real complaint I had with this game was the wonky camera. It just constantly kept swaying around and would get stuck in odd places. Apart from that, the combos, gore level, boss fights and artwork was very good. Climax Studios definitely have potential and they need to go mainstream. I have seen certain full disc based titles looking much worse than this game. Good usage of Unreal engine 3 for an XBLA game.
