Damnit, Not Another Port, I Want A New God Of War On PS4

Okay, this one, I don't get.

Tomb Raider: Definitive Edition ? Sure, it celebrated the positive overhaul of a video game icon and it turned out to be amazing for new PS4 owners .

The Last Of Us: Remastered ? Absolutely. The very best game of 2013 – and easily one of the best of the entire previous generation – and of course, the PS4 can't play the PS3 version, so… Spread the awesomeness.

But a PS4 version of God of War: Ascension ? Why? According to industry insider Shinobi602 (as cited by DualShockers ), Sony will indeed deliver the most recent GoW entry to the PS4. Granted, we have no idea what might be included in this re-release of sorts but even so, I don't want it.

Look, as good as Ascension was, I still deemed it a step back in the esteemed franchise. Many other critics felt the same way. It's just not the game we need on the PS4 right now; rather, we need the announcement of a new GoW installment. But wait, perhaps that's precisely the reason we're getting Ascension on PS4; maybe it's to prepare us for that new effort! I'm trying to be positive here.

It would help the PS4's nasty reputation of "having nothing but ports and digital titles" if they just stopped announcing more ports.
