Upon reading this thread, I feel violated...GOW III is bad? Don't touch me there...Gran Turismo has always sucked? BLOODY MURDER AHHHHH!

 Well, to be fair, God of War and God of War 2 also sucked so you can't expect the third to turn the franchise around. I will never understand how people can really enjoy that series.

 

Great level design, good story, well crafted gameplay, and fantastic art style? The only flaws the series has had is shallow combat (compared to "cream of the crop" hardcore action titles) and the length/replay value.

 

Fixed that for you =P I gotta say it has one of the worst stories ever made IMO and I love reading old roman and greek mythology, there was always more style to stories in real greek and roman text, the God of War story could be summed up in "I'm an angry bald man who killed my own family so I blame Aries for it instead of my own stupidity"

And yeah the level design, gameplay, and art style is nothing special, probably the one thing I enjoy is the trend it started in action games where you have to press certain buttons at times to kill enemies/bosses I rather like that as most action games have gotten way too easy without it.

Well, you can pretty much sum up any game's story with a simple sentence, it's how the story is presented. And you are out of your mind, there's not ONE hackNslash game that has better level design than GodOfWar. Games like NG and DMC (which I love also) has horrible interaction with the environments and can only be presented on an arena to arena basis.

The gameplay is the best mix of action, platforming and puzzle the genre has ever seen and the art style made the game look fantastic on an old console like the PS2.

I'm not going to get any further with you into this argument, everyone has their own opinions, and I'm not planning on changing your mind.  But every press magazine agrees with me as do the majority of action fans, GOW deserves it's hype.

MGS1's story can be summed up by "I'm a secret agent who wants to kill my twin's evil doom robot"

Gears of War's story can be summed up by "Look, aliens! Kill them!"

Tools of Destruction's story can be summed up by "I'm a catlike thing who needs to know about his past. Oh and I think I'll kill another megalomaniac supervillain on the way"

You can do that with any game.

The level design is brilliant. All of the levels look genuinely different (even in GoW II when they were all on one island), anybody who thinks the game is pure button mashing needs to play it on God difficulty, and God of War II has better graphics than quite a few games released THIS gen, with some of the best visual design I've ever seen.

Good fix heh heh, really I'm only joking with you guys just like I do with MM I don't care for God of War, I really don't, but I like to rattle GoW fans cages a bit cause I hate how everyone is like GoW = #1 when it's just meh IMO but really hack and slash is all but dead to me I mean when I can truly say the last real hack and slash I liked was in the SNES/Gen era I really just don't get that into it anymore.  I think the last hack n slash/beat em up I REALLY got into was TMNT I believe it was Turtles in time ^_^

Things that irritate me about GoW fans is the excessive love for things like the violence and the story which I've read into, seen most of the cut scenes and I mean you know hear about all the time and really it's just not that special to me and I like people to know that haha I mean I'm a fan of greek/roman mythology but both had better better stories then what God of War gives people, simply put I'm saying "go read a book" The Odyssey is a good one, I mean you get an epic story and it'll help you in college ^_^

You weren't randomly selected to participate in the race to buy for this round." so now I need to save up another 200 dollars to get that PS3 I want :'( I need a PS3 fund like Soriku lol if every member donated a dollar it could buy members like me and Soriku a PS3 easy =D
