I know a lot of people will immediately say yes but honestly is it worth someone who is short on cash and time to invest in the Gow Collection. Either way GOW3 is going to kick ass and I cant wait to get it this weekend

u can play god of war 3 first but u will miss some part of excitement/hype which is carried forwad by previous parts.

I'll sumarise the plot of the first two for you.

Kratos beats people up.

They're good games on their own, but you dont need to play them in order

Yes you should, thats what stopped me from buying it last night.

Yes, the God of War Collection is reasonably priced and you are getting 2 great games. Play them before you get GoWIII!!!!!!!

It would be a good idea to play the 2 first since the game is very much story driven and it is good to know whats happening and whats happened that is causing this.

It's definitely a YES!!!

I was wondering the same thing and I am just getting GoW III this friday anyway and I'm planning to play the shit out of it.

yes, But if you dont want to then go for it, it Will feel Mediocre if you do it that way, 1 & 2 are great games , i recommend playing them first so you will get a feel for the Character/world/Gameplay.

God of War Collection is cheap

Im thinking since I dont have enough money to buy both of them at once, that I will buy the Collection first and then Gow III. How long will it take me to play through the the Collection?
