Cool stuff.

Edit: Also I hope those "personal pieces" art at the bottom are actually SSM's next game.

 

[LowParry]

Damn. Now I want to go back and play God of War 3 again.

 

[Eccocid]

Playing it normal. Street fighting with Zeus is difficult bohoho.
I can get to 2nd round but he fucks me over and over. He is so fast and keeps screwing me when i get close combat!

You can block most of his attacks. Just make sure you get out of the way when he goes for the third hit on his punching combo.

On another note, just played the opening sequence for the first time in almost two months. WOW...AGAIN!

So... is this game going to receive any DLC?

I really hope so... but I feel it's unlikely or they would at least have alluded to it by now .

 

[jergrah]

Anyone see this God of War as an Indie Movie Trailer? Im typically not a fan of this type of fan made made stuff -- but I have to admit, this is really well put together.

[sankt-Antonio]

just beat the game - i loved the brutality of it all... but it was a little bit short, i think that gowII was longer?!?

one question, how many costumes can be optained in the game, and what do i have to do? thx

edit: wait: all but one costumes are preorder??? wtf. and it seems i cant start a new game with all my stuff (game+) ... well thats a downer

 

[DasRaven]

It is a mystery why the other costumes and combat arena haven't come out as DLC yet. I'm with you there.

If you collected the godly possessions, you'd have little need for anything upgraded.

 

[Minamu]

There's a glitch out there that lets you do just that. It'll automatically give you a couple (?) of trophies too unless you already have them.

Yeah, that really captures the formula...could have had a few more allusions to the actual series however...bit more angst maybe

 

[kai3345]

Just got this game today, holy shit. Best tutorial in a game ever.

It's been four months with no word.. so probably not Which kind of sucks.

they could have easily sell 500k DLC if they had release any new side story campaign or something similar to that. Such a shame.

 

[lamotia]

I just want them to release the missing titans as a DLC. I want to kill Volcano so bad. It was my dream since the demo got released. In the game itself you only need to press R1 and... nothing happens. WTF?

 

[Combichristoffersen]

Indeed. I wish they would at least put up that epilogue the didn't get the time to include in the game, but nooooo.

I think they're going to save that for God of War 4.

There won't be a GoW4.

 

[rainking187]

I'm kind of surprised they haven't at least put the preorder bonus skins up for sale.

 

[Combichristoffersen]

No point in buying a PS4 then.

 

[BloodySinner]

They should be free.

 

[eternaLightness]

I've been really enjoying the boss fights so far. Just beat

Spoiler

Chronos

and the scale was just unbelievable. Each boss fight kinda becomes my favorite. They're just so crazy brutal.

 

[Minamu]

There won't be a GoW4.

Yes, because Sony and Santa Monica absolutely HATES earning money It may not be called 4 though.

 

[Stallion Free]

Who the fuck thought it was a good idea to put a fucking musical quick-time event in this game. I only put up with that shit because they make it cool visually. Here it's hit 25 buttons perfectly with nothing cool to look at. Fucking moronic design decision.

It's not like it was any challenge though. That 'puzzle' was easy as shit

Spoiler

and I really liked it simply because it was such a WTF moment

I'm not good at motherfucking QTEs so the fact that I have to hit so many buttons in a row means that I still haven't been able to complete it in 30+ tries.

You never played Guitar Hero? It's essentially the same thing, really

 

[Stallion Free]

I suck at Guitar Hero as well. If I wanted Guitar Hero I would have bought Guitar Hero. It doesn't help that have Playstation buttons in the middle of Greek mythology looks pretty stupid too.

Also, do you play Guitar Hero on a controller?

 

[outsidah]

Is it just me or does this game make your PS3 go into turbo fan mode? My 40GB PS3 has always been pretty much quiet, but now that I'm getting into GOW3 it gets SO damn loud.

 

[Combichristoffersen]

I never bothered buying GH, and my sister only had one guitar, so whenever we played against each other, I played it on a controller, yeah.

 

[feel]

I stopped playing for about a week and now I don't remember what my goal was, and I hate just advancing for the sake of it without knowing what I'm supposed to be heading towards, can anyone help?

(only highlight if you've completed the game, obviously)

Spoiler

The part after Kratos bangs Aphrodite, he walks through that portal, and meets Hephaestus again. I saved right after this cutscene and now I don't remember what he said to me, and I'm walking through the next area without a clue of what my motivations are, and that sucks.

VV THANKS!

You need to find an object that he'll use to build the last weapon you'll get. And it'll be intense.

I wanted DLC so bad and it never came.

Not just you. My 60GB would kick up the fans during this game and Uncharted 2 more than for most other games. I also happened to be playing GOW3 when my PS3 YLOD'd. Not trying to scare you, but make sure your vents are clear!

Gotta say the lack of post-launch support for this game is surprising and disappointing.

 

[2 Minutes Turkish]

Just got Platinum bitches.

Fuck yeah.

But seriously, two of those Challenges of Olympus are a fucking joke and you can only get them through luck.

The grab one - I only got because the Cyclops charged me and ran of the edge. So killing the rest was easy.

Stoned - Again, sheer luck I got his on my 11th or 12th try. Simply because I happened to be in the right spot at the right time. Almost no skill involved in those.

Fuck me. That's a true platinum earned that one.

 

[Broadbandito]

first to PM me will receive a code to download the Unearthing the Legend Documentary.

Fifth to PM me will receive a code to download the Challenge of Exile Arena and Dominus Skin

Both codes are gone! Thanks for playing!

It is a mystery why the other costumes and combat arena haven't come out as DLC yet. I'm with you there.

Next month, maybe. That kind of pre-order DLC seems to have a 6-month exclusivity window. If we don't see those costumes in September we are never going to see them.

 

[corrosivefrost]

I wonder if we'll ever see the rumoured DLC of what they cut from the game... It's been 6 months now, I wish they'd do *something*.

No Hands was the worst for me. The rest weren't that bad, but that mechanic is lawlawlawl when you auto-grab the strongest enemy.

That's about all the time they have for me. I'll be picking up Move and some older games in Mid-Sept (RDR, Blur), so if there's no word then, I'll be trading in GoW3.

I know what you mean about needing luck over skill. I got lucky with that grab one because I pushed some of them off the edge. It didn't work all the time. And the one where multiple cyclops clone? Same thing. I just kept performing one combo over and over which stopped them in their tracks mid-move and made them retreat a bit until they walked off. And the one where they charge you, you just jump at the ledge and they fall off. No skill at all.

Although, that stoned one is made easier if you let them stone you quickly by pressing a wrong qte button making you insta-stoned. I didn't even bother fighting any of the creatures.

They needed to strike the iron while it's hot, it's kind of late now.

 

[Die Squirrel Die]

Bare Hands - I'm shaking with rage, literally, at what a fucking piece of shit that challenge is. I got so close one time, had the 3 larger enemies killed, a few seconds on the clock and I thought all the smaller enemies were gone, but no one guy didn't even spawn in until there was a second left. What a load of piss.

 

[Bad_Boy]

Yeah it's crazy Sony hasnt put more value towards GOW3. DLC would be great. Such a huge release and Sony just moved on it seems.

Pretty sure they spawn that guy on the opposite side of where you are. Not positive, didn't bother beating it again after the first time.

 

[Chrono]

Sorry for the bump but I really need help here, this has been driving me crazy.

I'm replaying the game, and reached the upper gardens but after fighting the two sartyrs the music is kind of weird, sounds kind of stuck, and when I depress the circular switch thing to get the green view the sounds of clanking don't stop, I don't remember this, I'm sure it's a track for only a few seconds. And after that there's a second cutscene with Hera that just never happens, and I'm stuck... I tried with two saves at that place and an auto one, and nothing helps. what the hell I'm not playing the whole damn game again.

Also, the game freezes when I choose to restart from latest check points, and when I shut down the PS3 from that point, it doesn't shut down properly and there are those two or three beeps. The game is screwing up my PS3. >_>
