And here's confirmation that it's fake .

http://www.product-reviews.net/2010/03/04/ps3s-god-of-war-iii-ign-review-scores-1010-rumor-update/

UPDATE: IGN has just informed us, that the screenshot was indeed a fake. So no 10/10 for God Of War just yet folks. It also turns out that the Modern Warfare 2 early score was a fake also, it was just ‘lucky’ that it happened to be 9.5 score as well.

God of war is such an overblown series. Bayonetta has more personality in her left high heel. Doesnt really matter how this game rates.

Hello my name is Innotech. I pretend I have a ps3 and hate god of war and all PS3 games. Please do not take my opinion seriously! Of course, I am not comparing Bayonetta, and action fighter to God of war a hybrid beat-um-up adventure game with a touch of action fighter. They are completely different games! They are not even in the same Genre.

So please, do not take my opinion seriously, I clearly do not know what I'm talking about! Enjoy your game folks!

@Godofwar_3ever: Thank you for reinforcing my view on typical GoW fans. Enjoy your trite, single button combo mashing, homoerotic greek gorefest. Whether this blog is factual or not, I could care less how many 10s or 9s this game gets, this series has always been garbage.

I will enjoy GoW, but I wouldn't expect you to know that it is more than just a button masher. Stop playing it on easy difficulty, some of the combos you can pull off is insane.Its unfortunate some people can't enjoy this epic series, but people have different tastes and I respect that and thats something you can't seem to do.

So please try to deny that your post is nothing more than hating on GoW.

And calling a series "garbage" when a lot of people worked hard to create is very wrong, especially since it has been proved otherwise both critically and by fan reactions. God of War is one of the best franchises ever created, and easily the best hack 'n slash franchise ever created. No amount of your complaints will change that.

No, you're grasping at straws.

GoW3 isn't a button masher, but it doesn't have half as much depth as Bayonetta, DMC or NGS.

I'm super hyped for GoW3 as well, but it desn't have anything to do with the battle system, but about the scale, the epicness and the design.

Maybe the first two god of wars dont have as much depth as those 3 games and series, but I read parts of the review in the official playstation magazine and they confirmed that there are battles that require you to use every weapon, item, and spell to get through which means an incredible amount of depth. Also, until youve played the full game theres no real way to know, maybe youll be pleasantly surprised by the amount of depth in combat when the game ships, not saying that the ps magazine is correct because they could be fabricating a bit, but I do believe that santa monica did a few things in this game to ensure that every weapon and move needs to be used more than once. But who knows, you could be right.

H8rs always H8....heck that's why they are called Haters! :P I love all the games the haters of GOW have mentioned so far...but as far as story, scale and depth goes.....none of them can compare "imo"

and I SERIOUSLY think that some people should stop generalizing with their comments...just because you don't like it doesn't make everyone who does the 'typical gow fan" or something...if anything the 'typical' GOW fan has very good taste in gaming............ :P
