Cant wait for the Combat director. What you think Jeff ?
Jeff Rubenstein replied on March 24, 2009 at 3:31 pm
I think the Combat Director will get you the most excited for the game. That’s why we’re saving it for last!

Jeff, I really want your job. You get to play alot of games before release, and you get to talk to the devs first hand. Seriously dude, it’s awesome.
10
iExile | March 24th, 2009 at 2:43 pm
Jeff, do you know if God of War 3 runs at 60 frames per second? If you don’t then please, pretty please, ask one of the developers next time. Thanks in advance.

Darkos87 | March 24th, 2009 at 2:43 pm
I could listen to that guy for hours.
‘We no longer use 64X 64, we use 2048X 2048.’
don’t even know what that means, but it’s awesome.

Are you going to fix the first vid, it started to mess up at about 5 min
Jeff Rubenstein replied on March 24, 2009 at 3:29 pm
Thanks for reminding me. This has been fixed!

EvoAnubis | March 24th, 2009 at 2:47 pm
“Are you going to fix the first vid, it started to mess up at about 5 min”
I’m sure Jeff will fix it when he has time. In case you haven’t noticed, he’s a bit busy.

34
EL_Hintern | March 24th, 2009 at 3:28 pm
Kinda creepy how Jeff looks into the camera at 1:56 :D
Jeff Rubenstein replied on March 24, 2009 at 3:31 pm
I’m making sure we’re still framed correctly…
35
Fluidshine | March 24th, 2009 at 3:31 pm
Great interview! This game looks great, the other two can’t compare to the scale, visuals, sounds, and detail of it!
36
kiikooo | March 24th, 2009 at 3:32 pm
hey jeff sorry for the double post but i have another question
half way through the interview why do you keep looking at the camera ??
37
Mobius_124 | March 24th, 2009 at 3:32 pm
http://www.vg247.com/2009/03/24/gdc-ps3-firmware-270-definitely-this-week-developers-got-it-yesterday/
sooo? is it true?
38
The_Apprentice | March 24th, 2009 at 3:33 pm
I totally agree with Ken on Dead Space.
Dead Space really was an overlooked title from last year.
I actually went for the platinum trophy haha.
And its nice that the devs oommune with each other during development.
I can imagine a God of War fanboy at Guerilla Games begging for some secret info from the God of War team.

lebron_accel | March 24th, 2009 at 3:35 pm
Great interview, hope seeing some more in-game videos!

Parapraxis | March 24th, 2009 at 3:53 pm
Great interview Jeff!
My hairs stand on end in anticipation of GoW 3.
Will you be posting the final interview tomorrow?
and do you know if Sony has any big GoW reveals planned for GDC?
no specifics, just hoping!
Jeff Rubenstein replied on March 24, 2009 at 3:56 pm
5 interviews, one every day this week. No God of War reveals at GDC.
42
BlazednSleepy | March 24th, 2009 at 3:55 pm
AMAZING!!!! great interviews.
43
Zookey | March 24th, 2009 at 4:01 pm
Any sort of psychotic GDC reveals even outside ofGow? Like the Legend of Dragoon maybe like PSXextreme reported on????? PLEASE?
44
Parapraxis | March 24th, 2009 at 4:02 pm
Thanks Jeff.
Look forward to the rest of the interviews.
Tell them to put them on the final disc as bonus material ;)
peace!

NEJI64 | March 24th, 2009 at 4:03 pm

Hey Jeff hire me as your camera man.

48
h4rri3r0 | March 24th, 2009 at 4:38 pm
