Lots of people praised the Poseiden fight but yea This definitely beated it. Even more massive and more brutal, more set pieces, Whoah. this sold me

This one is even better and we didn't even see the full intro. The last 1 second of the video teased things to come, looks like its going to get more epic after where they cut off.

^ i know, i was like.....Holy crap the guy in the last 1 sec of the video is even bigger

The thing in the last one second of the video is the head of the Hetaton. I'm assuming the Furies animate that as well.

Isnt that huge guy the same guy they talked about in the cutscenes?
He betrayed zeus or something and got captured by the furies, he had multiple arms aswell.

Yeah, same guy. You can see his head in the background a few times.

Hecatoncheir, lads. Call it "Honky Tonk", if you find this difficult to recall.
>better than Poseidon intro
The last GoW game to have an intro in the day was CoO (the worst title). Also, this is a copy of GoWIII's opening (but inferior). The infected Honky Tonk arms don't have nearly enough attacks (that one phase with one move was extremely irritating to watch drag on).
Magaera instantly dissolved all build-up of the Furies. So, good job. Bugs are poor man's Hades Nymphs. Infected Humans are re-skins of Satyr Grunts. Cyclops Berserker is...just that (has a new one-two and borrows the Cyclops Desert King chest split *updated*). Honky Tonk arms are like Hippocampus and Honky Tonky man himself might end up being a copy of Poseidon. I'd be quite amused if that were so. Amusing to watching Honker dicking around with the prison section like a puzzle box (didn't know what to do with it for over a minute).

^Agreed. Boss battles smells strongly of the Poseidon opening. More limps to deal with and smaller battle galore, but very similar.
The main "head" of honky looks to be different in the one second frame we got...maybe diving into his body is planned. Similar battles isn't terrible, but there is a strong resemblance....the limbs even move in similar ways to the Leviathan.
