God Of War - Ranking Every Game From Worst To Best
2. God Of War 3
Besides being one of the most hyped up games for the PlayStation 3, God of War 3 is a fantastic end to the series and one of the most beautiful looking games on the console. It definitely deserves to be recognised as one of the high points in the series.
The fantastic gameplay that made the other God of War titles so great is back here with a vengeance. The new weapons, more brutal combat and greater puzzles mean that God of War 3 really ups the ante with every gameplay aspect.
It also easily features the best boss battles in the series history, with each God offering up a new challenge. Scale is a big part of the third adventure, with the battles often zooming out to view Kratos as a little speck, which is done much better here than in Ascension.
It's a shame that the story of the third entry doesn't really live up to the games before it then. Kratos comes across as utterly irredeemable and unlikeable in this game, which is a far cry from the tragic origins of the character.
If the story had only matched the fantastic gameplay, God of War 3 could easily be the best.
