God of War III (Review)
Kratos and God of War III have patiently sat atop Mount Olympus watching the likes of Bayonetta, Darksiders and Dante’s Inferno clamber their way upwards in their efforts to usurp him. He’s let them get tantalisingly close, before stirring and smiting them from the mountain in amused rage at their audacity.
The end of the trilogy begins where GOWII ended, with Kratos clambering up Mount Olympus with his new Titan buddies for the climactic war to kill Zeus and any gods that cross his path. There’s seemingly nowhere for the Olympians to hide anymore seeing as he’s dispatched pretty much every mythological monster they’ve thrown at him already.
It’s great see that Kratos himself hasn’t changed over the years. He’s still so gloriously f***ked off with everything and everyone. There are several points where you might think the game’s going to offer you a ‘moral choice,’ but no, you just kill everyone. It’s a pretty clear message to Dante’s Inferno and its conscience.
