Product ReviewsGod of War Collection (Sony PlayStation 3, 2009)

GoW Collection HD

From Czech Republic: Game came much earlier than I thought, so thumbs up here. It works, so that is good too. But the packaging of the copy was in a paper and I thought it will be classic plastic cover. And disk has just a little tiny scratch, but the game works, so I guess it doesn't matter that much, right? Still, good buy, could find it for a better price anywhere...Read full review...

I don't know if this could be called fun.

I'm sure there are people who love God of War games. There are some good aspects, I admit. The level design, use of color and light, puzzle designs, sound, music...all excellent. The set piece battles and boss fights are creatively designed. The main character is a generic angry man with simplistic motivation and not even a hint of kindness or humor. Essentially, you're playing as a villain fighting villains. There are no likable characters whatsoever. Combat is arbitrary. You can learn all sorts of moves which rarely need to be used. I rarely had to reason "how am I going to defeat this enemy?" because the answer is always "press the same button sequence I used for all the other enemies". There are lots of quick-time button press sequences but they haven't been adjusted to account for wireless controllers and the frame lag on digital TV sets that weren't prevalent in the original PS2 versions. At the end of the second game, there's a button sequence where the timing is set so fast that it's practically impossible without some form of cheating or plugging in a wired controller. I tried for 3 days, many cups of coffee, hundreds of tries but never got through it. Compare with a game made for PS3 like Wet. It relies of lots of quick-time sequences but the timing is set to make it challenging but not impossible. The cinematics are the original standard definition PS2 renderings. The videos not upscaled nicely so it's a bit of a jolt to see low detail models with low-res textures for characters and environments during cutscenes. I give it 3 stars because the level, puzzle and character design is so good. But altogether, a frustrating, unsatisfying experience. It's a good value because you get two full games for a low price. If you really like God of War, it's a pretty good deal.Read full review...

Are you kidding me?

What the? You want me to review GOD OF WAR games?
Dude, this is probably the most epic and awesome video game series human kind has ever developed!
God of War is simply put: Perfection. And in my opinion, the 3rd one is the best, even better than God of War on PS4.Read full review...
