Featured reviews
Very good game. This is the only other game I've played in the god of war franchise, I played the remastered version on PS4 before I started the new one. It is great fun. I can't compare it to other titles in the franchise but what I can say the story is epic, the gameplay is fun and not too challenging, and the boss battles are memorable. For a remaster I don't think the graphics were really improved that much tbh. This is a must play for playstation owners. It's very different to the new god of war and most games I play, but I found it very refershing. The fixed camera angle could be a bit annoying sometimes. And no boss or area was too difficult to the point of me dying excessively and raging. It's the right difficulty and not too challenging for me playing on normal. Overall I highly recommend this and I can't wair to play the newer one
Pros:
Cons:
Verdict: While playing this game feels awesome and satisfyingly brutal and gory. Filled with colossal levels and larger than life boss fights, this game is a must play.
8.5/10.
- Kratos is a BADASS

- Great graphics
- Creative level designs

Cons:
- Story is kinda light (but who gives an f)
- Extreme cinematic zoom-outs in levels can be abit annoying

The best god of war in the series, it was the epic conclusion of the triology, the most bloody the most intense with it's bossfights, gods and giants clash once and for all, Kratos was the real deal this game tells every gamer why he is one of the best in video games as a protaginist maybe antagonist too + god of war is one of the best game series of all times.

The latest issue of the Official PlayStation Magazine is in, and it's got the first review of God of War 3, giving Kratos' third outing a 9/10.
Is it better than the recent rip-off (but pretty bloody good) Dante's Inferno? Yes, says the review in issue 43 of OPM, and it even destroys the first two GoW games too.
"They fall a long way short of the series' long-awaited PS3 debut. Like, a really, really long way - this is on a scale PS3 has never known. It makes not only its predecessors seem small, but the competition too. Darksiders and even the very decent Dante's Inferno have nothing to compare with Kratos' almighty comeback," it reads.
So why a 9 and not a 10? "The game is inches from scoring 10/10, and it's only the familiarity of the core gameplay (standing on the shoulders of giants) that makes it feel less than the very, very best. But it's definitely the biggest, and if this is the finale (and the corpses littering the stage by the end of the game suggest it might be), then God Of War III gives PlayStation's toughest hero the send-off he deserves," says the review.

What a game only now playing it because it's free on PS4, wish I played it along time ago, it's simply a beautiful epic game.
Did you know
- TriviaHad David Jaffe (director of the first game) made this game, it would have been very different. The idea he had was that Zeus would have been defeated in the first few minutes of the game. In the power vacuum that would follow the gods of other mythologies would have appeared to fill the space left by the loss of Zeus. Kratos would have used Thor's hammer as a weapon. The ending would have shown the Three Wise Men (Kings) following a star.
- GoofsAll the Gods and Titans are called by their Greek names, as this game is based on Greek mythology. Therefore, Hercules should be called "Heracles". Hercules is the Roman alternate. While factually this may be the case, the developers chose to use the name Hercules as apposed to Heracles simply because Hercules is known more commonly by the general public.
- Crazy creditsThere is a scene after the closing credits: a scene of the place where Kratos died, shows a blood trail leading away.
