Wait a minute WHAT? I haven't checked since I finished it, but is there seriously no NG+? That sucks big time.

I like NG+ because it's interesting going through the game again with all the weapons/upgrades from the outset. It's also interesting to see how you can break the game with everything maxed out, etc. etc. I guess the Goldy Possessions do that a little bit, but I would've loved using some of the other weapons in the early fights. Sigh...oh well

Yeah, i get that. But i did start a new game on hard with all my godly possessions and some of them really make it super easy. With
Hermes's coin you get 10x the amount of red orbs, you can fully upgrade everything once you get the weapon.

Just completed this 
Took me just over 10 hours, got 48% of the trophies or something on normal first playthrough.
Played it on and off over the last few days with the GF. Titan mode :lol I died enough on normal.
Loved the ending!

About half-way through on Titan mode. I love the game but boy oh boy did Kratos fall apart as a character.
God of War I/II - Kratos was a badass with fleshed out motivations (more so in I than II, but II was good too).
God of War III - Kratos is just a jerk (who now also likes to be sarcastic). He literally just
And his voice acting seems worse than in I/II.
Fortunately, the improvements to the gameplay/boss battles make up for this IMO.

Just killed Hercules
Because, to me, it was actually really good in GoW I (maybe that's just rose-tinted glasses because I played GoW I when I was still in high school when GoW I came out. But to me, the story/Kratos as a character was a big piece of the puzzle that made me like GoW I (despite the fact that many people crap all over the story and/or Kratos).Leatherface said:

This scorpion is a f*ckin PITA.
Question: Has anyone received a PSN code from Sony after entering their promotional code at the godofwar.com/skins site? It's been, like, a week now, and I got nothin'.
Why make us jump through these hoops? Why not just distribute regular PSN codes?

It's my least favorite of the three, but that isn't saying much as I loved the first two. However, it's still a great game and I think it suffers from being pigeon holed into a story by GOW II. I knew going in there were going to have a tough time with the story in III and they did the best they could. If you think about God of war 1 is really the only one in the series where the story makes complete sense and really leaves a completely fulfilling ending. And you can tell it was not originally designed as a trilogy. The combat was the best in the series and while the puzzles were not nearly as intricate or deep as before, I don't necessarily see that as a bad thing.

People are a bunch of pussys thats why.
I think Kratos motivation is clearly fleshed out for us. Zeus has been the puppet master all along and everything that has tied Kratos to any semblance of being a human being has been literally severed by his own hands(His wife and child, Athena). He is a man with only one thing to live for the death of Zeus. The game does a phenomenal job showing just how broken Kratos has become he will sacrifice the very world if it means getting his revenge.
Every god you destroy further plummets the very earth you walk on into chaos. The blotting out of the sun, the floods, pestilence and the death of all things living.
For everyone wondering a bout where their DLC skin codes are, it's an issue on their end. They're currently working on it and trying to get it fixed asap. The turn-around time from when you enter the code on the website to when you receive the email is supposed to be 5 business days. I have no idea why. There's already a multiple page thread about it on the official forums started by a community manager I believe.

McLovin said:Holy shit I think this game just killed my ps3! What does it mean when it beeps then shuts down and the red light keeps blinking? Tried turning it on but it freezes
EEsh McLovin that cant be good. Did you try forcing the PS3 to Reset? I think you hold keep your finger over the on button while it boots up and it beeps 3 times and does the equivalent of a hard-reboot.
If that doesn't work I think if you sacrifice a goat over your ps3 it should be okay.

Very entertaining Making of clips too, especially the voice-over with Kevin Sorbo
And McLovin thats the YLOD you got there :/

No kidding. Using an external code besides a PSN code is ridiculous anyway. I don't understand since it's just an unlock code anyway. All the costumes are on disc.
Got my platinum yesterday. WANT MORE CHALLENGES! Those were almost as fun as the main game. I'm actually enjoying replaying more than I thought I would.
The skins and Godly Possessions(GP) allow you to change the difficulty to make even Spartan interesting.
Here's where my playthroughs are:
Spartan: At A's Chamber, Standard Kratos + GP
This one was just to finish in-game trophies Nice Tan, Hot in Here, and Obedience School, so I don't I'll keep it after I finish the game.
God: At A's Chamber, F.Kratos + GP
I guess the Titan playthrough rendered the skin penalty moot, I'm barely ever touched before I crush every enemy since I parry so well.
I'll continue through to the end just for the check, but this will end up being the save for A's mini-game.
Titan: First playthrough, quite difficult, but complete. This is my Final Battle save.
Chaos: Not started, searching for a Dominus skin to make this bearable. But I will go through it eventually, probably as a RTTP playthrough in the Fall.
This will be my Labyrinth save.

The Scorpious/Molten Cerberus will extra suck on Chaos.
