im a big God Of War fan and i love a good hack and slash with a good story line behind it, even though alot of people may not say or even see it in GOW series i love the story they stuck in there, seeing kratos as such a bad ass but seeing hes past also the mix of historical mythical creatures and Gods into the game is freaken crazy, i wanna know peoples opinions on GOW 3 what you think itll be like and also if you think its gonna be good or bad, why?, reason im asking is because i had one friend saying that MW 2 was gonna be a big fail to everyone who was hoping for it, but i mean seeing everything about it on this forum and all the hype, and after playing it myself i dont wanna take hes crap advice again, so please post your opinions on GOW 3 here and tell me what you think it will be like..thanks :D

They could do just about anything with God of War 3 and I'll be happy. Though, I am really hoping that you (Kratos) will get to kill all the gods in this game. Based on the end of 2, the demo for 3, and this being the last game, it looks like that's going to happen.

Good, but same-y, so I'm looking at lots of critics complaining about that.

E3 demo is on psn, IF you have: 1) pre-ordered GoW3 2) pruchased GoW collection 3) purchased District 9 blu-ray 4) one of those few European users (or have European account) randomly selected to receive the psn code for the demo otherwise, it's not open to public yet

Yay! I've already got my Ultimate Edition preordered but it couldn't come out at a worse time. Supposedly its coming in March, but FFXIII is coming in March and I'm not playing any other games while I play that so hopefully it comes late late March or April so I have time to finish FF before it comes out.

God of war 3 demo was good, but underwhelming especially with the graphics. I expect better in the final product.

Considering God of War 3 will be the final installment in the series, I'm willing to entertain the idea they may have us kill the Gods. I'm expecting nothing but the most brutal, fast-paced, beat-em-up action we've become used to with these games. I can't believe I completely forgot I had a code for the E3 Demo of God of War 3, in my God of War Collection disc case. Now to go see about that!

I think it will be good, but I think Bayonetta will be even better.

Nah, i don't think anything in bayonetta will be able to compete with the final battle between Kratos and Zues. I'm sure Sony Santa Monica will make that an epic battle for the ages

I think so too but most people can't even comprehend that anything could be better than GoW, even though they've never even given Bayonetta a chance.

or people have different tastes... anyways, I never really liked Beyonetta from the trailers they showed...but since people are playing the demo and shouting hallelujah, I've decided to check it out and see if I'll join the choir....currently at 88%

the thing about bayonetta that turns me off is (and i know this sounds really, really stupid) the fact she's... stupid looking. The glasses would be fine, but her hairthing and clothing... seems like they could've done better character design. Maybe I just have to see it in action, i'll go get the demo right now before i say any more.

Yes the old saying, "Don't judge a book by its cover" applies to Bayonetta very much. A lot of people are dismissing it for similar reasons without even trying it. Glad both of you are at least giving it a try though.

I tried it several times, and I still don't like it very much. The whole style is too anime and over-the-top for me. I also find the combat a little too chaotic to follow (though I'm starting to get the hang of it after a few playthroughs). It's all a matter of taste.

God of War is refined? God of War is a button masher. I love it and its brutal and fun as hell to play, but the gameplay has nothing games like DMC or Bayonetta. They have much more stylized combat which forces you to preform stylish combos to get good at the game. Sure you could just mash buttons and get through it, but to truly be good at the game you be able to play with style. The gameplay just feels much more fluid and "refined" than any other action games I've ever played.

i agree bayonetta could be good, i mean i also agree with different taste and stuff, which is true, so not knocking back people or anything on there choices, and ill first have to give it a try before i say too much about it, but my mate showed me the trailer, and i know the fact about her clothes and hair look preety annoying, ill try the gameplay and fighting style and possibly the story line, because i love DMC so i will give it a try!

dont agree, it may be a button masher but if you get the combos down you can play on a diff lvl, the god lvl requires skill not just mashing. you would never get through it.

I'm not saying you don't have to be able to pull off combos to beat GoW on harder difficulties and that it doesn't require skill. I'm just saying Bayonetta is all about style. You need to pull off stylish combos to get more points so to truly get good even at easier difficulties you need to be able to do that with style. There's nothing keeping score for you in GoW so you really don't need to do anything other than mash buttons and throw in the occasional combo on the easier difficulties, and on harder difficulties just use more combos. Its a different style of gameplay. God of War is all about brutal combos, Bayonetta is about stylish combos. And yes I will agree that GoW has a pretty unique story. I don't know enough about the Bayonetta story to make a comparison but GoW does have a great story.

So I played the Bayonetta demo. Its good, easy fun but I don't think its worth the praise some people are giving it... Ninja Gaiden still remains the best action adventure game imo. >.> But I'll reserve full condemnation until the game actually releases in the states.

sure you can get away with button mashing on normal diffulcties but on the hardest difficulties you really have to take your time and plan your moves and gow3 felt more natural on gameplay. bayonetta now felt like a big time button masher btw i played demo on xbox (the one with the better framrate) and it still sucked compared to gow3 demo!!! and sure DMCs gameplay is a tad better than gow3 and so is ninja gaidens but their stories are awfull and turn me off from the games completely

So I played the Bayonetta demo. Its good, easy fun but I don't think its worth the praise some people are giving it...verbalfilth

If you find it easy you're not playing it right. Just getting through the demo is fairly easy but to get good at the game is not so easy. Try going for all Platinum medals and see if you still think its easy.

sure you can get away with button mashing on normal diffulcties but on the hardest difficulties you really have to take your time and plan your moves and gow3 felt more natural on gameplay. bayonetta now felt like a big time button masher btw i played demo on xbox (the one with the better framrate) and it still sucked compared to gow3 demo!!! and sure DMCs gameplay is a tad better than gow3 and so is ninja gaidens but their stories are awfull and turn me off from the games completelyrogelio22

DMC and Bayonetta have very similar gameplay so how can you say DMC is better than GoW, and not say Bayonetta is? Read my post 2 up and you'll get a better idea of what I was talking about and why I think Bayonetta is more "refined" than GoW.

GoW is one of the reasons i love playstation. and to those saying that dmc is more stylized and has a better fighting engine, youre nuts! you can go thru dmc just firing your guns the entire time on those repetitive levels and enemies. you honestly dont have to do a single combo to finish that game. yes, thats what makes it fun. try playing the challenge of the gods/titans to see where articulate combos come into play in the gow series. you wont make it far just slappin at the buttons.

Many games that I'm far more interested in, Including Bayonetta, but I will end up renting God of War 3 just to see the end of the trilogy. I really hate Kratos though, and so far I've found the story to be pretty average. Just a cliche revenge tale injected into greek mythology.

You don't have to do a single combo to finish GoW either. DMC and Bayonetta both require you to actually perform combos to get good scores. So yes you can just go through the game and beat without doing that, but to really get good you need to be able to do these combos with style to get more points and better scores. If you can go through and get an S rank on all the missions in DMC or get all Platinum medals in Bayonetta just firing your guns, I crown you king of all action games.
