Epic
Breathtaking visuals showcase next-gen console performance. Viscerally satisfying and fun hack-and-slash gameplay. Wide variety of weapons and special items.
Terrific graphics and sound
Ridiculously over the top action sequences look great and are immense fun to play
New weapons are powerful and satisfying to use
The best God Of War game yet and one of the best games on the PlayStation 3
The most cinematic battles in the history of gaming
Is the best looking game on the planet
Terrific production values
Intense boss battles
Pretty much the best action game ever made
The editors didn't like
Doesn’t innovate much from previous entries in the series. Mini-games can become annoying or repetitive.
Combat still feels like mindless button-mashing at times
Still a great game despite a few niggling flaws....

When Sony first decided to publish God of War it was highly unlikely they would have realised how popular the series would become. Now a system seller, God of War and Kratos is synonymous with the PlayStation system, one of those games that almost e...
Abstract: Kratos is back and more brutal than ever for this final instalment in the God of War (GOW) series. Decapitating enemies barehanded, gouging out eyes, and disembowelling mythic beasts are all on the menu, with plenty of blood to boot. And it's now av...
Satisfying combat with a good variety of useful weapons , Outstanding visuals, both artistically and technically , Impressive sense of scale , Challenging and diverse boss battles , Amazing resolution to the trilogy ,
Not as diverse as God of War II , Story doesn't pick up until near the end
Exhilarating combat and an imposing sense of scale provide a fitting end to Kratos' saga....
A great action experience, with plenty of thrills and memorable moments; improves upon the franchise formula in almost every tangible way
It doesn't bring the story to a satisfying conclusion and the attempts to make sense of Kratos' journey ultimately fall flat
God of War 3 is more than an action game: it's the conclusion to a commercially successful and critically acclaimed series that acts as the ‘face' of Sony's entire gaming brand; what Master Chief is to Microsoft and Mario is to Nintendo, Kratos is to Sony...
Abstract: God of War 3)GOD OF WAAAAAAR 3!!! Okay, it's hard to do a Kratos interpretation with text and I'm sure quite a few gamers got excited as I did, when they heard that God of War III was finally being released and even better, it would be pure unadultera...
Abstract: In God of War III (Sony) chains are a prominent feature. Fitting, given that Kratos, the protagonist of Sony’s video game trilogy, feels that his life has been bound by the whimsy of the Greek pantheon. Kratos’ main weapon is constructed of chains, and...
Abstract: God of War III starts off incredibly well, and initially was everything I'd hoped for. The epic scale has been dialed up, and everything that happens on the screen is amazing. For the first two hours anyway. After that it slowly devolves into God of Wa...
Great epic scale the series is known for. Mostly well told story. Looks great most of the time. Wonderful soundtrack. Fun combat system with a lot of weapons. Good pacing between combat and puzzle segments. Some very cool camera angles are used to display...
A surprising lack of polish in some parts. Sound bugs. Game crashed. Noticeable slowdowns and framerate drops at random times. Fixed camera will have you occasionally fight enemies you cannot see. Controls can be a little unresponsive during platforming s...
Abstract: Man, that Kratos is an angry dude. But fair enough – through three games now, he’s been screwed over by a huge menagerie of Greek legends.I’ve just finished the game, and I’m trying to collect my thoughts. I’ll start with the easy sum-up: if you’re a f...
