God of War 4 is finally here and we were able to get our hands on the limited-edition Leviathan gray ps4 pro and you know I've been really excited for this game so I wanted to make sure this unboxing was done right so we got ahold of a Viking axe let's get to it we are more than that now to be honest with you guys what I very first saw as council revealed I didn't actually see the trailer where they kind of explained the concept or anything I just saw still image and I wasn't sure it seemed like it was just a kind of a bunch of stuff thrown on a console and didn't have much meaning but then when they showed the idea that it's supposed to be the axe from the game and it's recreated right here I was like okay I can buy that a little more and now that I see it in person I actually really like the design of this system there's a lot of stuff here that I don't think necessarily gets translated the best in a picture when you actually see it in person it just comes across so much stronger one thing that really stands out right away is the fact that often times I feel like Sony tends to almost over abused gloss finishes on some of their systems and this one stood ops for using a mixture where you have gloss in the segments that aren't really the axe whereas the axe is this matte just slightly shiny kind of finished with this dark silver almost steel kind of design which looks really good especially with the accents of gold to here and there so the axe design at the top I think works pretty well now as for the front of the system we've got two different things going on first there's this kind of gold weaving going on in the middle which honestly I'm not really a huge fan of but below that we've got these eight rooms now if these symbols don't look familiar to you they're actually etched into the main logo for this game which is on the shirt I'm wearing right now it's these eight guys right here and these aren't rooms now ruins can have just their own kind of letter meanings but these don't actually spell anything out when you line them up instead you have to go by what actually the symbols can represent for instance this symbol that can be the M letter M also means man overall excellent design that I end up living way more in person than I thought I was going to cuz yeah at first glance if you don't really know what's going into this guy it's a little bit much but once the themes come across really cool now as for the controller this is something at I have kind of little more mixed feelings on because first off I love silver and I think the dark gray that contrasts it works really well together I'm also a big fan of this approach that Sony's been doing with a lot of their special edition controllers where they just use one little kind of subtle symbol on the right grip which i think is a nice touch then where they lose me you don't really need to put the game right here I think this is a great choice I think color options great I didn't know the name of the game I know what this is celebrating and so sours a little bit but overall really cool looking controller so overall this idea of incorporating the axes design the system I think is really cool it might seem a little bit much to someone who's not really a fan or just know what's going on but I actually really like that idea the fact that you know a true fan is I don't know what's going on with the designs are gonna appreciate the design choices instead of having a system where they're just gonna plaster the word god of war all over it here and there I think works out really well
