Many PS3 fans have the date of publication of the final part of Kratos saga, marked in red on the calendar.
The game therefore went ahead also a huge hype.
One can say the same:
I could test the game two days extensively and the hype and anticipation were fully justified!
DC in the first 45 minutes a fireworks display of effects.
That the reigns of Santa Monica Studios are also masters of the production, we have known for Part 1 and 2. FIG.
Especially at the beginning to get hard to take a breath and they think they are on a roller coaster - in the truest sense of the word.
Innovations and changes in the gameplay compared to part 1 and 2, there is little, but if we are honest, we do not need.
Who knows Kratos, knows what he gets.
Tons of crude and brutal action, skill and some passages, some quite well elaborate, puzzles deposits.
These puzzles interrupt the duration of action and fit very well into the game, as God of War III would otherwise degenerate into a pure Metzelorgie.
The story connects seamlessly with Part 2.
Newcomers will thus be perhaps a bit confused.
Here I recommend first to play the God of War Collection (Part 1 and 2).
The action will be continued and should have a pretty good, fitting end.
I can not judge, unfortunately, because I have not yet played the game.
The absolute showpiece of the game is the graphics.
Unbelievable what is most out of the PS3. Super environment graphics, crisp textures and Kratos himself just looks impressive.
With him you can even identify individual muscles.
There are also giant bosses, which are characteristic of the series of games and set new standards graphically.
On the PS3, the bosses see logically from even much more imposing and impressive than on the PS2.
The sound is made, already known from its predecessors, classical elements.
The sound effects fit perfectly to the gameplay.
Quite so wonderful German language edition is not managed.
Here you should perform the original English version to heart absolutely. The speakers give significantly more effort and Kratos will look even grimmer than it already is.
The game mechanics has, as already mentioned, hardly changed. The advantage is that you, as a God-of-War aficionados, immediately feels at home.
The much-discussed Quick-Time-Events may not be missing.
Conclusion:
Too bad, that there should be no more part 4.
On the other hand, one should stop when it is most beautiful.
God of War III is a more than worthy conclusion of the trilogy.
Who Slay games with skill and puzzles deposits is on Hack Zn, who can not get to God of War III.
Kratos shows who is boss in the ring. Although the obvious plagiarism Dante Infero is a good game, but can God of War III is not nearly rich water.
The game sets in terms of brutality go one better. Sometimes I have felt to be exaggerated.
That the game is suitable for ages 18 and therefore not recommended for children, goes without saying.
Technically God of War III is in my opinion the best game on the PS3. Even Uncharted 2 cometh not with all.
Review:
Graphics: 9.5 out of 10

PS:
