    I bought a PS4 and i was tallking with my brother what should i buy for it. And i said, damn if GOW3 was on PS4 i would buy it instantly. After dinner that day, i went on my PC and found out that GOW3 is getting a PS4 remaster. Coincidence? I don't think so :D

    God Of War 3 Remastered is a must own if you're a fan of hack'n'slash games. The combat is fun, satisfying,crunchy, and runs at 60 FPS. The graphics are also very good. Buy this game If you like hack'n'slash games.

    Being a PS3 game at the end of the day, the remastered graphics may not be up to current PS4 standards, but they're still very good. Definitely acceptable. Graphics aren't the reason I like this game though. The gameplay is amazing, and fun. Boss fights are epic and even the general fighting is solid.
    The puzzles could've been harder but the scenery/locations are pretty cool.
    It's a must play

    GOD OF WAR III Remastered (Review) | Die perfekte Rache?
    Kratos Rache war auf der PlayStation 3 nahezu perfekt, auf der PlayStation 4 wird der Gesamteindruck allerdings etwas durch die Probleme und Schwächen getrübt, die nicht ausgemerzt wurden: Stichwort freie Kamera, häufiger Gebrauch von Quick-Time-Events und Schwächen in der Präsentation.

    GOD OF WAR III Remastered (Review) | Die perfekte Rache?
    Kratos Rache war auf der PlayStation 3 nahezu perfekt, auf der PlayStation 4 wird der Gesamteindruck allerdings etwas durch die Probleme und Schwächen getrübt, die nicht ausgemerzt wurden: Stichwort freie Kamera, häufiger Gebrauch von Quick-Time-Events und Schwächen in der Präsentation. Die zweifelsohne noch immer sehr schicke Grafik beeindruckt das PS4-Grafik verwöhnte Auge allerdings nicht mehr wirklich. Was bleibt ist aber ein grandioser Rachefeldzug mit brachialer Action, der auch nach fünf Jahren noch immer begeistern kann und eine – verzeihung wegen des Wortspiels – Mordsgaudi macht! Kratos bleibt cool und zeitlos, seine Geschichte spannend. GOD OF WAR III Remastered kann wirklich jeder spielen und (wieder) Spaß haben, ob als Neueinsteiger in die Serie oder als alter Kriegsgott-Veteran – nur bitte nicht zum Release und einem Fast-Vollpreis von 50 €. Es wird Zeit für ein neues Abenteuer des unermüdlichen Kratos!

It also offers some decent puzzles just as the previous entries did. One pretty big complaint is the senselessness of the story (even compared to the other entries). The game looks great at 1080p and 60fps and there's also a photo mode which is fun to use but again, it's not worth it unless you haven't already played the PS3 version. Expand

    I was played this game at PS3 console, and i really enjoy it, i was so excited when they release Remaster. It's really looks awesome to see this game at 60fps and 1080p, and it's really different between PS3 and PS4. If you like killing some gods, don't hesitate and buy it! :)

    A weak protagonist and story is accompanied with fun and brutal combat. It's a great game that I recommend.

    Jako że nie posiadałem PS3, a ukończyłem GOW 1 i 2, musiałem zakupić tego remastera. Gra zacna, trzyma poziom, wieńczy historię. Kto nie grał, niech zagra, bo warto. Odejmuje jeden punkt za - moim zdaniem - źle wyważony poziom trudności i efekt zamulenie, kiedy dostanie się po głowie - nie można przejść do kontry.

    Best game i played ever in PS4 so far, it was worth the buy. I congratulate the GOD OF WAR 3 game makers for making such a wonderful game, their effort is worth 10/10 score. The game is got best graphics, gameplay. Good game design and cinematic. Felt like i was inside the game, truly remastered to perfection.

    One of the greatest games ever with lipstick on. In my view these games should be played on the hardest mode of difficulty to get the most out of them. Whilst you can leave the difficulty low and mash your way through the glorious story and scenery the game experience is so much better when you need to block and parry etc etc.

    +Epic, Violent, and Darkness Visual
    +Excellent Combat
    +Surprisingly Clever Puzzles
    -Weak Story
    -Some Camera Angles' Disorder

    It's a kind of bloody game and truly mature game.

    Amazing game, if you love any of the older GOW games you'll love this one.

    I only read one bad review on here that actually critiqued the game and sounded like they had played it. All the other bad reviews sounded like they came from salty people who never played it but just needed to leave a bad score for some reason or another.

    God of War is my favorite games series. God of War is my favorite part so far, but I think it's a consistent story from 1 to 3, you have to look at it completely and it's just awsome. The graphics and gameplay were so great on the PS3 and it looks so much better on the PS4. I hope I fall in love with the new God of War.

    El juego es excelente, pero en comparación con la versión de PS3, este tiene problemas con ciertas texturas las cuales no han sido parchadas.

    Good and dynamic Hack and slash game. Excellent gameplay and boss fights, 60 fps pleasing the eye, there is no drawdown. The main disadvantage of this game is its duration, I passed it in about 10 hours, which is not enough. If you took the game on a subscription to ps plus, then this is the perfect game for you.

    The story is 9/10, gameplay 10/10, soundtrack 6/10, characters 9/10, world 9/10, atmosphere 8/10.
    The story is good and the gameplay is very satasfying. It also has a good ending.

    God of War 3 is an incredibly fun game with awesome set pieces that feature some of the most brutal fighting seen in a video game. Despite its gratuity it is a fun experience.

    I dont know why I bought this game, maybe because it had been quite a long time since I last played the PS3 version, or maybe because I missed seeing my screen full of blood of the enemies.

    GoW III is probably the best game in the series. A must-play, even more at 1080/60 fps.

    All good games for PS4 are remastered version of masterpieces for PS3. This is just one more example.
    Great game, it worth the time and money. Once again, thanks Santa Monica Studios!!

    A zero-hassle remaster of a great action hack 'n' slash. The combat system is still great, even if inferior to that of some Japanese games of the same genre, and the graphics have aged extraordinarily well. Still, as we said, a lot more could have been done in this remaster.

    The fact that the Photo Mode is one of the emphasized features tells everything about how necessary this remaster was and how much effort was put into it. Yes, the textures are sharper, the lighting is better, but the difference is not breathtaking, because the game was already stunningly beautiful before. It’s not how I imagined Kratos’ assault on PS4. So why such a high score? Five years later it’s still an exceptional game and I envy everyone who is to experience this grand adventure for the first time. [09/2015, p.43]
