Let me start off by saying God of war 3 is simply stunning. When I first started playing the game I was immediately stunned by the scale of the game. The other entries in the god of war series have been epic in scale but nothing like this. Lets just say if you thought the ending of god of war 2 was epic in cutscene form just wait until you play it, thats right I siad play it, at the begining of god of war 3 . To be honest it is prehaps one of the most amzing scenes I have ever seen in a game and dont worry there are many more scenes like this through out the game.
The story in god war 3 follows kratos hunger for revenge and follws Kratos seeking his revenge on the gods of olmpiyus especially on Zeus. The story is well-told and is very action packed , I was pleasently surprised to see if you can say a compasionate side of Kratos. The ending is unexpected and wraps up the god of war trilogy nicely.
The graphics, oh my god the graphics are simply amazing, I dont think there is a game out there that can match God of war 3's graphics except for one of two. There are breathtaking. The character models are simply outstanding , especially Kratos and Posedion who I must say when you see him in the game in his battle form is prehaps the greatest use of water ever seen in a game.
Now its time to talk about the gameplay, there isnt much to say about god of war that hasnt already been siad. The gameplay in god of war 3 is as near to perfection as a
hack and slash,adventure game can get, it is fun,exciting, perfectly executed and is always a joy to use.
The sound in this game is once again as you would expect from god of war is amazing. The music amps up the atmosphere in the game even more. The sound is epic from the sound of Kratos battle cry to the amazing voice casting to the amzing sound conducted by a live .
orchestra.
Bad aspects of the game: Well there isnt really anything bad to say about the game but if I have to nick-pick then I suppose there are a couple of times when the graphics of certain objects in the game didnt seem as on par as the rest of the game and the double jump can sometimes seem a bit off but neither of these problems affect the game in any gamebreaking way.
Good aspects of the game: I'll try to make this as short as I can as there is so much great in the game, this review doesnt say nearly half of what makes this game so good. I enjoyed the story alot and the excellent gameplay complemented the story along with the amzing graphics and sound.
Story: 9 – A well done and exciting story which will keep you engaged from the epic beginning to the bloody end. It does get a little bit predictable at times but that didnt stop it from being an epic tale of vengeance and an awseome experience:).
Graphics: 10 – The graphics are outstanding, maybe the best grahics on the ps3 :) .
Gameplay: 10 – Gameplay is as close to perfection as you can get, all other hack and slash games can learn a thing or two from this game.
Sound: 10 -- The voice acting is very well done and the music provided by a live orchestra is nothing short of epic.
Enjoyment: 10 – I enjoyed this game alot. It is one of the best experiences I have had with a game for a long time and has reminded me why I love action/adventure games and why I loved the God of War series so much.
Final Comment: All I have left to say is that this game is amazing I know im repeating myself but the game is just outstanding. I would recommened anyone to try this game out if they have a ps3. Even those who are not fans of hack and slash/ adventure games may just be turned by God of War 3 :):).
Final Score – 9.8
Recommendation- Must Buy
