Following the release of the God of War Collection and the impending release of God of War III however, I took it upon myself to play through the first two games. Once I'd managed to import a copy of the Collection and played through them both, I started to see glimpses of why the series is held in such high regard. The pleasant mix of visceral, brutal combat and puzzle solving made for an enjoyable pace, with the epic scenes and boss fights keeping my jaw sufficiently dropped. By the end of God of War II I was anxious to see what the final piece of the trilogy would bring to the series, and with the experiences of the first two games quite fresh in my mind, I couldn't wait to get started. Fast forward to now and, well, I've finished it, so let me tell why God of War III is the best game in the series."
The Opening Levels that hooked gamers from the outset.
Cultured Vultures: Let’s delve into Kratos’ long and rampageous history and find out which games are worth the hype and which are better left buried under the weight of Kratos’s might.
Both requels over 2 and 3? Clowns. Those are two of the most boring games I've ever played.
My favorite was part 2 and I think Ragnarok is better that 2018.
There is no worst. Except for Ascension, only cause I didn't play it lol. They are all masterpieces. 1,2,3, 2018 and Ragnarok. 1 of, if not the greatest video game franchise...besides MetalGear.
Can't agree, older games do so much more than the last two. More weapons, magic abilities, enemies are more varied, level design is also more aesthetically pleasing, and agree with those who say that they shouldn't have removed jumping. Was a time I'd agree, but those old games are so so much better, that they really should've looked into bringing into the reboot/sequels.
God of War 3 Remaster has sold 4 million copies since its inception, making the franchise PlayStation's most profitable gamer merch brand.
Haha I still remember my brother playing the opening scene on ps3!!!
Yeh he had to put the controller down his heart was beating too fast trying to get past first 10 minutes. He said "it's too much". Best thing I've ever seen in gaming. Haha
I know this is unpopular opinion, but I prefer these over the new ones. I’m not saying the new ones are bad or anything, but they sort of get boring to me, whereas the older games were like non-stop roller coaster rides.
