    The amount of times I played this game is unimaginable, I played it at least 3 times on PS3 and 4 times on PS4(Ironic), this is a game you come back to just to beat the living soul outta the Gods that wronged Kratos.

    In my opinion, this is still the best GOD OF WAR game to ever exist, with great graphics combat, and a satisfying conclusion to the greek realm. GOD OF WAR Ragnarok comes close to this game with its content, but it's just something about the Rage of Kratos how 1D his character is, yet how complex it became as the game unfolds.

    If you haven't played any of the GOD OF WAR games, GOW III to this day is in its own class.
    This is a game that must be played, it demands it.    … Expand

    Spectacular gameplay, the best graphics of its generation, one of the best hack 'n' slash ever made, and an entertaining story. God of War III was and still is one of the best experiences you can have in a game. simply legendary!

    God of War 3 is a prime example of how to properly continue the franchise on a new platform.

    A very entertaining game, not stretched. The gameplay in the game is difficult, which is good. The graphics are very progressive after the previous parts, which makes this game better. The game is great, I advise everyone.

    It's a good game life the first two but I found it unmemorable and nothing new added to the gameplay.

    La tercera parte es sin dudas una de las mejores de toda la saga del dios de la guerra, el juego contiene altas cantidades de acción la cual no te aburrira en ningún momento. Santa Mónica nunca decepciona.

    El final de la saga griega supone muchas cosas para la franquicia. Jugablemente es el más dinámico de la trilogía clásica pero empeora notablemente en la construcción de la historia y el planteamiento de los niveles no es tan variado respecto a juegos anteriores. A pesar de sus defectos sigue siendo un muy buen juego, recomendado para los fans de los juegos de acción.

    Legendary tale of vengeance combined with real mythology is a beautiful blend executed masterfully here. Gameplay is perfected, idk how they pulled it off.

    Review só pra lembrar a nota que dei pro jogo:
    Mesmo com a entrada de GOW 2018 e Ragnarok, ainda acho esse o melhor da série, combate intenso e desafiador em certos momentos, batalhas de "boss" memoráveis, um ótimo final para a trilogia original (falando apenas do GOW 1 até o 3) e contendo alguns momentos emocionantes entre Kratos e Pandora, e sem falar na atuação de todos que ficaram    Review só pra lembrar a nota que dei pro jogo:

    It´s the peak of these original greek games. It has something to say but it isn´t deep (doesn´t try to bite more than it can chew), which is fine. Gameplay is fun and good, but could be better, just like all of these games, which never completely nail the combat. Kratos and his motivations align great with the player´s (in a pretty underrated way) and 3 is the best example of this.

    God of war 3 não é tão cativante quanto seus antecessores, o jogo apresenta belos gráficos, uma variação interessante de armas e uma ótima finalização pra saga clássica, mas não passa o mesmo felling dos clássico, e isso não é nem por questão de nostalgia, nesse jogo realmente faltou algo para ser mais marcante.

    But despite God of War III being afraid of flying too close to the sun -lest those carefully crafted wings should melt- the journey is relentlessly exciting; a blistering spectacle told in blood and thunder. Truly epic, then. And I defy anyone to argue with the definition this time around.

    God of War 3 is fantastic, and has at least three scenes that are utterly magnificent. Design and gameplay-wise, it's absolutely stunning. The downside is that it doesn't have that clear cut perfection that its predecessor had; the polish shine that brilliantly lit up our eyes when we first enjoyed God of War 2.
