Abstract: God of War III opens with the kind of show-stopping sequence that most other games would happily end on. The mythic cliffs of Mount Olympus are depicted as a sweeping, war torn battlefield, with conflicts exploding across the craggy rock-face far into ...
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...

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
Combat still feels like mindless button-mashing at times, excessive backtracking feels a bit tiresome
