God of War III PS3

Review

It's pretty much what we expect from this epic franchise, but the limited scope and fairly mundane ending hasn't rounded off this franchise with the dignity it deserves.
 
8.5 / 10
"Missed potential."

God of War to live on after 3

The God of War franchise will live on after God of War III, developer Sony Santa Monica has told Gamervision.

This is not the end of God of War," John Hight, studio bigwig, stated to Gamervision. "This is definitely the end of the trilogy, but we're [going to] continue to do God of War games.

"We're [going to] be very careful about what we do. We're the keepers of the franchise and we don't want to see it ruined or polluted." (via Eurogamer.)

A PlayStation 3 exclusive, God of War III is touted for release in New Zealand on the 17th of March.

Description: (hide)
God of War III finds Kratos raining carnage and destruction upon the Gods who have betrayed him and the entire Ancient Greek world. Armed with his deadly double-chained blades, Kratos will take on mythology’s darkest creatures while solving intricate puzzles on his merciless quest to destroy Olympus and the mighty Zeus himself.

Features:
  • Witness the power of PLAYSTATION 3 as Kratos ferociously carves through the massive army of Olympus - its Centaur Generals commanding wave after wave of merciless undead soldiers.
  • The epic scale of God of War III reaches heights unseen in the franchise - not only must Kratos ascend the summit of Mount Olympus to reach his revenge, but he must do it while navigating on the back of a titan who could crush the Statue of Liberty in the palm of it's hand.
  • The creatures of Greek legend are no longer just a way for Kratos to express his violent temper - Kratos can ride them, twisting their pain into a blind rage, using them to cross chasms, reveal secrets, and destroy anything and everything that stands in his way.
  • As Kratos continues on his path of revenge he will uncover new deadly weapons like the Cestus, powerful metal gauntlets with devastating strength, and other brutal instruments of war that will allow him to learn ruthless new techniques such as grappling with enemies and launching explosive wall to ground attacks.
