Release of the Week: God of War 3 (PS3)

Having problems finding PS3′s in stores? This is probably why…

The saga of Kratos continues in this third iteration of the main God of War series. The son of Zeus has a bone to pick with Daddy, and has gathered the titans to assault Olympus and seek his revenge. The story of God of War isn’t that important. All you need to know is that there will be gallons of blood spilled as you hack your way to the final showdown.

God of War is the epitome of the hack and slash genre. Using different combinations of melee attacks, spells and quick time events you will work your way through hordes of undead and mythical creatures. Eventually you will make your way to the Gods, which will provide awesome boss fights along the way.

If you have played either of the previous two games, then you know what you are getting into. There will be plenty of button mashing, quick time events and blood. If you are new to the series, then you should probably check out the first two games first. Luckily they have been revamped in HD and ported to the PS3 in God of War Collection. God of War perfects the formula of the previous games, but it doesn’t build on it much.

This game isn’t for the feint of heart. It packs more then enough sex, blood and gore to be worthy of its M rating. If mashing buttons while watching body parts fly everywhere is your thing, then this game is for you.
