    Gameplay, it was the fine tuning and perfect realization of what GoW could be. Story wise, just ok.

    +Combat
    +Combo variety.
    +Platforming is good for an hack and slash game.
    +Boss battles
    +QTE's.
    +Gore,violence
    +Soundtracks - Story is not as good as the first one.(but better than the second one)
    -Also unlike the first two games,this one doesn't have a narrator.

    Fechou a trilogia do Espartano com excelência! Gráficos espetaculares pro PS3, jogabilidade já conhecida melhorada em relação ao antecessor, e é muito bom ver durante o jogo os imensos monstros e **** subindo/defendendo o Olimpo. O melhor da trilogia.

    I played this gen back in 2010 and now I played the Remaster in the PS4.
    A true classic hack & slash game worthy to sit as one of the best out there (right next to DMC3)
    Lets begin.

    Combat (player) - While some say GoW has a very (sometimes "shallow") gameplay, I found it quite wrong and not true. All GoW games have unique weapons. Yes, you do carry 4 weapons which 2 one them are CC damage much like the classic blades but the wrong differently which is why I welcome it. GoW3 has some interesting elements to make some sassy combos which I found to be quite fun to pull and easy. And by easy I mean not unnecessary complex and **** unlike that other game *DMC4 AHEM*.
    Use dash to launch enemies in the air, then make some Ariel attack and juggle them with you bow (always fun to juggle that Monster bull). BTW , dedicated evade button in a fixed camera ? now THAT'S GREAT (plus m once you learn to evade cancel it becomes even more fun... yes it's kinda OP once you use it, still fun as hell like in DMC3)
    Overall, combat may seem shallow because some players span (Light + Light + Heavy). But once you rep the difficulty then some advance Ariel combos might help you out.
    One thing to note before I get to the standard enemies, yes the throw button is way to OP. However not all enemies are beatable (on the start) by being safe in an animation attack/grab.

    Enemies -
    Spartan (generic and golden) - The generic are you snacks to spam circle grab and easy to kill. However the golden types have super armor on attack animation but can be beaten with Ariel combos to be safe.
    "Big Cows" - Probably the funniest enemy to juggle in the air because the so big that it seems impossible. The can block and counter you attacks but overall they're easy and fun. Just a lot tougher
    Medusa and snake girl - both share the same attacks , one can simply turn you to stone. The normally have super armor to be wear out. thankfully , they not hard to break and juggle in the air and their attacks are easily readable (unlike a **** enemy named blitz in DMC4)
    - Rest of enemies I can't remember - pretty the rest of the enemies carry a combination of super armor that you'll need to break (except for the gorgon, they always have it on but slow for such attribute). Most of them can be combo in the air with an easy. Hence the reason why the games throws a mix of enemies that make you need to evade in certain moments.
    So overall, great enemy design.
    Bosses - They're great. Not special TBH. All of them have readable attack animations and some are slow. It's a shame that some of them cannot be bested by all weapons types like in DMC3 but again it's not a big deal.
    Overall great.

    Overall thought, a great hack and slash game,both advance gamers and average gamers can find this game engaging and fun.

    God of War III is one of the best games i ever played. The words are really inadequate when trying to explain this game. Graphics are really good for PS3. Ending of this game is great. Boss battles, puzzles, characters, story is very good. Soundtracks on my Spotify playlist. Absolutely stunning

    Overhyped game.
    Just playing trough the remastered version which is a pretty sight. I can not fathom why this game is so revered. Its a hack and slash button mashing blood-fest. Pretty linear and straight forward.
    What drags it down is its use of quicktime events. i HATE quicktime events. Only David Cage should be allowed to use them but not in this. Its a lazy, lousy way to fix a

    Even though the third entry in the series didn't see the great jump from the first to the second game, it still was able to extract as much as possible out of the god of war formula. Taking on the gods themselves has never felt so satisfying.

    Sure, there weren't much quality of life changes applied to the gameplay department and it is not deep or anything, most of the time it can be resumed to frantically mashing buttons but the enemies and boss designs were so cool and the cinematic during fights were excellent that that can be forgiven. God of War III is a mindless fun game and one of the best eye-candy games. The story is good to boot too so it's not a bad deal even if it doesn't have Dark Souls-level combat.

Также хочеться отметить великолепный визуал и красивые локации. Но вот во время прохождения истории у меня возникло чувство того, что что то определенно не так, вроде как и особо не отличаеться ''качеством'' от других частей, но все таки мне чего то не хватало (ИМХО, хотя может и исторее действительно слабее стала) Но даже не смотря на это я считаю что 3 часть - это достойное завершение оригинальной трилогии. Если вы играли во все предыдущие игры линейки, то я думаю эта вас уж точно не разочарует. Но если же вы не играли в первые две части и рассматриваете покупку третьей по каким либо причинам, то она вполне возможно может вам не понравиться (у меня была похожая ситуация, но как же я все таки рад что решил пройти все игры сам). На этом этот небольшой думаю можно закончить. (это не часть обзора а личное мнение, крик Вильгельма в первой заставке уж совсем не сочетаеться с игрой (◣_◢) ) Expand

The authors seem to have listened to me and offered us a full-fledged, this time the third sequel, which brings some of the changes. God of War I was a great game that should be played by every proud PlayStation fan. God of War II for a lot of people and the best part of the series and for me an amazing sequel to the game. How's God of War III? Awesome! The play throws us a delicious intro right at the beginning, which immediately draws us in with the music and reminds us of the events of the previous parts with its visual. Yes, the intro may be slightly longer than in previous games, but it's not a bad thing when it's the third part of the series, so it's nice for the game to recap the events in the story of the previous parts. However, after the end of this intra and the subsequent film, which will introduce us to the negatives, the game throws us into action and friends, it is delicious here! Yes, it was already delicious in previous games, but this time the authors shifted it a bit thanks to the fact that the game is already for newer generations of consoles and thanks to that it looks much better and especially the blood looks much more realistic and sprays a lot here. Violence and adult content in general is not a problem for the game and there will be sex scenes, as in previous episodes, when we simply have to press the buttons and turn the gamepad levers as the game shows us to get Red Orbs, thanks to which we will subsequently improve. Yes, there is, of course, character improvement here. Don't look for much here. Simply improving your swords and your abilities for even more bloodthirsty action. Speaking of the constant action and that there are a lot of them, I must not forget the locations where the game takes place. Although they have not undergone such a complete change and we will move here mainly in palaces and not so much somewhere in the wild, it does not matter, because the location simply looks different. Either it is because they got a new graphic jacket that suits them and they look more realistic, but personally I think it's because the game is so dark all the time and don't look for much light here compared to one and two. It's constantly cloudy and just dark, but it has its charm and it all makes you feel like the game is coming to a finish and that this is no longer a fairy tale, which of course wasn't even in previous games, but in short the game seemed a bit darker. To top it all off, there are some puzzles here and there that will give you a break from all those battles. When you jump through the game to the last hours of playing, a delicious end awaits you, which will suit you with the action-packed final of the game. I'm not going to spoiler with whom he has the honor at the end of the game Kratos, but I'll tell you that it was delicious and overall The Final Boss here is something delicious that ends the series. The whole thing seems like such an ending, although at the time of writing this review it is not the ending, because later God of War (2018) was published. But back to the three. To sum it all up. God of War III is an amazing game that brings even better action in new nice graphics. After all, the game looks slightly different from the previous ones, thanks to the already mentioned darker cloudy environment. The story, although amazing, still still, in my opinion, just doesn't have a first part. For me, however, an amazing game that fans of the series will devour, but overall I recommend this game.

    One of the best games in the era of ps3, in its time the visuals were unbelievable, the music and the story of revenge ended in a very epic way, and its a masterpiece, do not hesitate to play it.

    This game, which appeared during the collapse of the God of War franchise, proved that the god of war is not dead.
    But the adolescent personality of the kratos and the childish behavior of the gods spoil the seriousness of the game.

    eu até poderia dar 10, porém as vezes o kratos não é rapido e quando você vai fazer um comando mas o anterior é longo, kratos vai demorar pra fazer e as vezes o jogo é muito injusto, mas o jogo é incrivel

    Un muy buen juego pero hay un gran contraste en partes que son muy entretenidas y frenéticas como los combates para que luego vengan acertijos y partes lentas que arruinan la experiencia

    The game pushes the limits of epicness. Combat mechanics are quite satisfying. The graphics don't look bad even at this time. But I think our revenge journey with zeus should have ended with the 2nd game. Anyway, apart from that, god of war 3 is above average in its genre, which does things that should be done well, but does other things (characters, story, event, etc.) poorly.

    The best god of war in the series, it was the epic conclusion of the triology, the most bloody the most intense with it’s bossfights, gods and giants clash once and for all, Kratos was the real deal this game tells every gamer why he is one of the best in video games as a protaginist maybe antagonist too + god of war being one of the best game series of all times

    Maybe i've played this game too late, because i played this like in 2020 first time, but god damn it was awesome. It was a great experience, even though i thought that i wouldn't like this game because it's kind of old for me, but i was truly surprised with this in a positive way.

    Videogame epico: ottima grafica per l'epoca in cui è uscito, combattimenti e boss memorabili e anche, in un punto del gioco specialmente, una bellissima sezione puzzle da risolvere.
    Uno di quei giochi da avere, senza se e senza ma.

    God of War III es un cierre de trilogía sobresaliente a nivel jugable, pero que en su conjunto no llega a la altura de la segunda entrega.

Es cierto que el sistema de combate alcanza su punto álgido y que las batallas contra jefes son increíbles, tanto por su diseño como por su exceso de violencia. Sin embargo, las zonas intermedias del juego no están tan inspiradas y la narrativa deja una sensación continua de que ha sido alargada para que el juego alcance una duración que justifique su existencia. Aún así, el juego es divertido, adictivo y supera al primer God of War en casi todo, siendo imprescindible para conocer el final de Kratos en la mitología griega. Duración aproximada: 10 horas Expand

    I went through this game after I finished gow 4 and it amazed me. Yes, the plot may not be as cool as in the sequel, but the combat is something. Although by the release date of the game I was 4 years old, but still it is beautiful, I really look forward to a remake!

    God of War 3 is not a bad game, it's great. But there is one thing that makes this game a bit boring. The weapons. We have a total of 4 weapons in the game and 3 of them are chain weapons. That's why it makes you feel like you're using a different version of Blades of Chaos (Kratos' main weapons), not a different weapon, which makes the pace of the game a little boring.

    If you liked the previous God of War titles, you're going to feel right at home with this one.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
