The latest in the God of War Department
Sony Computer Entertainment America (SCEA) announced on December 15th, 2008 God of War 3– the last installment of the multi-million unit franchise which is exclusively for PlayStation 3 owners. The first gameplay trailer which you can see here , showcases the game’s beautiful cinematography and its groundbreaking depth of scale that is four times larger than its predecessor on the PS2 God of War 2. Developed by Sony Computer Entertainment’s, Santa Monica Studio’s God of War 3 will bring epic battles to life with stunning graphics and an elaborate plot that puts Kratos at the center of the carnage and destruction as he seeks revenge against the Gods who have betrayed him. “We have large shoes to fill following the success of the previously released God of War titles,” said Stig Asmussen, Game Director for God of War 3. “But with refined gameplay and jaw-dropping visuals, I guarantee that God of War will give fans what they have been eagerly waiting for, and much more.”
Utilizing a new game engine built from the ground up and state-of-the-art visual technologies, the development team behind God of War 3 have made significant strides in giving players the realistic feel of actually being on the battlegrounds. With texture resolutions being quadrupled since God of War 2, God of War 3 will feature fluid, life-like characters, as well as dynamic lighting effects, a robust weapon system, and world-changing scenarios that will truly bring unmistakable realism to Kratos’ fateful quest. This game seems like it is a must have for any PS3 owner and for like myself a huge fan of the series but not a PS3 owner it seems that I may have to consider buying one just to play God of War 3. God of War 3 promises to be one of the best games to hit on PS3 and I have no doubt that it will live up to the expectations that the first 2 have set for it. But don’t expect it anytime soon folks with a earliest release date of Q4 2009 but a more realistic release date of early 2010.
