just saw some magazine scans floating around with pictures of the sex mini game(s). seems cratos will
take on 3 women at one time... :eek:

Actually, Kratos will be humping Aphrodite (to get information) while two of her handmaids are watching from a distance, while commenting on Kratos' sexual provess

Hey Santa Monica guys! Very cool having you here! Congratulations on the great game!

Gamers here on Brazil are going nuts waiting for GOW3! It's really nice that Sony is officially releasing the game here at a competitive price! You can still find it cheaper on importers, but at least Sony has began looking at us as a viable market!

Please, please I hope you guys have some cool downloads planned for GOW3!
I'll buy it at a high price! :D

Thanks for being AWESOME!

YESSS!! HAHA I called it!

Though it wasn't too hard to guess considering they said
it would include a god and two other people, and Aphrodite is obviously the goddess of love, so...

He looks like an incredibly old version of the actor that plays Draco Malfoy in the Harry Potter movies.

Now, if they go with the Kratos = Christian God theory of mine, the GAF -> Sony Santa Monica -> GAF circle will be complete.

There's no chance in Hell they'd actually go for something as stupid as that

Apparently your schooling was done at home with FOX NEWS.

Its funny how people get instant Ban for racial statment. Yet this type of B.S goes un-notiiced and even accepted.

So i guess its okay to say in U.S its these type of countries where priest sleep with little boys, people are encouraged to cheat on there wives, black people are treated like slaves, Jews run the banks and abuse the power, All black people have crimnal records.

Must be a "Christian" thing.

Wow. You're almost too ignorant to reply to. I like the way you turned a statement about countries into an attack on religion. But in the interest of educating people so they aren't afraid to speak the truth because of ignorant, apologist bullies like you who are so quick to play the race card, here's my two cents.

Ever heard of Sharia law? God of War is not banned in all Islamic countries just as the above practices are not indicative of the behavior of all muslim people. But attrocities happen and acceptance of that kind of controlling, anti human rights behaviour is what we should be outraged about. Not whether or not people can get God of War III without importing. That was my point.

There are three links to various news providers and countries proving this isn't "B.S." and demonstrating why discussing it is not ever going to be banned. Inconvenient though you may find it, you don't get banned for speaking the truth. By contrast none of your outlandish analogies are protected and encouraged by the legal system in the USA. This is not an attack on Islam, so get your head out of your ass.

Gameinformer gave it a 10.

When i first took up Kratos' blades back in 2005, i thought i was embarking on a simple quest for vengeance. After leaving a trail of bodies spanning four games and three systems, that quest has finally reached its end. Not even in my wildest dreams could i have imagined such a powerful, cinematic, and breathtaking conclusion to the saga of the Ghost of Sparta

Second opinion:

God of War III is a whirlwind of violence that begins with relentless chaos and concludes with the most satisfying punch in video game history

So do all EB Games employees get their paws on all of the games early? Cause the left side of my brain is coming up with some pretty good excuses, coupled with that fact, that makes the pay cut seem worth it...

I bet Kratos punches a reincarnated Athena in the fucking face. That lying piece of crap is the reason the entire series kicked off.

OP updated:

Game Informer:

This is an excerpt from the scans:

Concept:
Finish the tale of Kratos in an unbelievably epic way.

Graphics:
The graphics and camera work are among the very best that gaming has to offer.

Sound:
As always the music is excellent. The voice cast is a real surprise with the likes of Malcolm McDowell, Rip Torn and Kevin Sorbo.

Playability:
Combat is fluid and responsive and the context sensitive sequences are even better without the buttons overlaid on top of the action.

Entertainment:
You'll pounce from one explosive moment to the next as Kratos delivers the grim brand of justice to the denizens of Olympus.

10/10

Gameinformer review excerpts do nothing to make the wait for this any easier. Jim, how's the combat? Any solid refinements or additions?

U crazy? Athena saved Kratos' ass more than once. First, after he jumps off into the aegean sea and second, where she disobeyed Zeus in GoW 2 by not getting rid of Kratos' Godly powers. Zeus says something like "Since Athena would not obey me I had to come down here".

I'm sure scrolling past my post wasted precious seconds of your life. By all means, get back to pages of people saying "Holy shit!" and "10/10!!!"

Download it. But its really old, 1 year old infact so dont think the final version runs or looks like the demo.

Also I would advice you to get the GOW: Collection or play GOW2 atleast somehow.

All you are doing is even more making a fool out of yourself, including stereotyping countries.

The Original comment you responded with your sterotypical was :
"I could understand Islamic countries banning the game for the violence or the mandatory sex mini game, but for the "God" in the name? This game isn't about the islamic God, it's about Greek mythology :/ It's sad for the gamers out there. "

To which you responded:

"These are the same sorts of countries where women don't have the right to drive, go out un-escorted by men or without being covered head to toe, and can get whipped or worse for the dishonor they bring to their family from being victimised in arranged marriages or rapes. Getting indignant about a game being banned -- ludicrous though it is -- is not something we should be upset about. "

In your response you are advocating as if these actions are part of the country rule and regulation. Not the exception.And the countries that Banned GOW .

The examples of countries you provided had absolutely nothing to do with Banning GOW. So GOW had nothing to do about these countries. If anyting UAE is probably the most moderate of all Arab Nations.


Did you even read your first example. Which ofcouse is not even in middle east. Here is the quote from the article " “This high court ruling should have gone a long way in curbing such crimes, but the ground reality is that the vulnerable women are still subjected to such an oppressive practice not recognised by the law of the land

Did you even bother reading that. Again, making judgment based on action by minority which you so claim to be the majority. And again, non of those countries had nothing to do with Banning GOW.

With your logic i guess U.S is anti Black

And since AVP was banned in Australlia. I wonder what do you think about Human rights there.

Get a freaking life. None of the countries you mentioned Banned GOW.

I think GOTY top contenders will be ME2 and GOW3. Unless somebody unveil an OMFG AWESOME GAME! that put both games to shame.
both are too early in the year.

we don't know what the holiday titles are this year yet, really, but I'd imagine they have a much better chance.
