• God of War III is the epic conclusion to the Greek mythologicaltrilogy which will complete Kratos' story that began in the originaltitle for the PlayStation 2.
• True to the series' roots, the four pillars of gameplay – brutalcombat, intricate puzzles, exploration of awe-inspiring worlds and acompelling story all return to make God of War III the ultimateexperience.
• God of War III picks up exactly where the action of God of War IIleft off – Kratos must take his quest for vengeance to the verystronghold of Zeus. As the Army of Olympus surges out to meet him inbattle and the chaos of the Great War is reignited, Kratos must scalethe summit of Mount Olympus on the back of the mighty Titan Gaia,leading his new colossal allies in an all out assault on the Olympians.
• The menacing creatures of Greek mythology in God of War III are notonly targets of Kratos' brutal destruction, but can now be manipulatedagainst their will, as he uses them to cross chasms, inflict blind rageagainst enemies, reveal puzzles and secrets and as tools of completeannihilation as he makes his way on a quest fueled by hate andvengeance.
• As Kratos continues on his path of revenge, he will uncover newdeadly weapons like the Cestus – powerful metal gauntlets withdevastating strength, and other brutal instruments of war that willallow him to learn ruthless new techniques such as grappling withenemies and launching explosive wall to ground attacks.
• Built from the ground up, the brand new engine that powers God ofWar III was designed for one main purpose – to achieve a level of scalenever thought possible. Kratos can now carve through armies of enemieswhile navigating on the back of a ‘living level’ – a massive, moving,breathing Titan as tall as the Empire State building.
• The PS3's capabilities have allowed the developers to bring theworld of God of War to life like never before. Battling in detailed andunique 3D worlds lit by hundreds of dynamic lights and featuringtextures with quadruple the resolution, Kratos and his enemies nowfeature realistic muscle striations, detailed facial expressions andheightened levels of brutality and gore.

If you have a PS3 I'd highly suggest invest in and playing God Of War I & II before III releases:

It's cheap at $29 bucks for 2 epic games remastered in 720P at 60 FPS.

***Spoiler alert*** on God Of War I & II story video: Watch at your own risk !!!

Chances are you cant find ultimate edition if you wanted to. Value will probably really increase once the game comes out.

 

[caponecartels]

I need to get a PS3 again.

 

[rhythmentality]

I was hoping GOW3 was gonna be of epic story length like MGS4, but a lack of install ruined my hopes.
 
If it's gonna be any shorter than Uncharted 2, I'm gonna be disappointed.
 
I'm purposely coppin' with low expectations.

 

 

[Bend_The_Knee]

been waiting for this game for a while now
1 & 2 are both cclassics, 3 is said to look like nothing weve seen before

if u played the e3 demo, it is amazing but the final product is said to look way better

 

[sneakerhead401]

Doubt you'll like it as much if you haven't played 1 & 2 cuz it is a legit story line there might be things you don't under stand
