What is considered out of bounds for the God of War series? It’s not violence, as players will decapitate and eviscerate enemies with gory, glorious detail. It’s not sex, either, as God of War III continues the series’ naughty mini-game tradition. It’s the laughs. “If we start laughing,” God of War III director Stig Asmussen…

The journey a game, and its characters, take from concept to console is usually an interesting one, but in God of War’s case, it seems particularly so. Especially for its leading man, Kratos. Ken Feldman, lead artist on the original God of War game, has told Official PlayStation magazine that while designing the star of…
This is a PC casemod. Meaning there’s a personal computer somewhere inside that mannequin of Kratos, star of Sony’s God of War series. Meaning terror is only ever a spreadsheet away. I admire the intent. And the craftsmanship. But the execution? No way I could have that thing anywhere near me while using a PC.…
Earlier today, you saw the final box art for the regular edition of Sony’s God of War III, featuring Kratos giving you the big, angry Greek eye. Here’s what the collector’s edition looks like. Because it comes in a chest, and includes a ton of stuff like art books and soundtracks, we’d figured the box…
While God of War on PSP was a good enough game, the real achievement was in how developers Ready At Dawn managed to translate the console experience onto a handheld. But did you know they almost didn’t bother? In an interview at IndustryGamers, RaD’s Dana Jan said “There were early discussions of making Chains of…
Sony today released a number of new screens for upcoming brawler God of War III. Swords and angry men feature prominently. The game, sure to be one of the biggest of the year on the PlayStation 3, will be out in March.
Having so far been released only in the United States, the God of War Collection will finally be released in PAL territories in 2010. Only, there’s a catch. See, in the US, it was released in convenient, standalone form. But the only way PAL customers will be able to get their hands on a copy…

Bitmob sat down, screengrabber at the ready, and found out, posting a ton of shots directly comparing the two versions. As you can see, the PS2 version looks a little,…
In the Halloween episode of Xbox LIVE’s Inside Xbox, there are heads on the wall — one of which looks like Kratos from Sony’s PlayStation franchise. But what could it mean? Thanks, Morgonzo Dos!

The Blu-ray disc combo release of God of War and God of War II is out… hey, next month! As if you weren’t going to get the hi-def God of War Collection for your PS3 anyway, here’s a new trailer. Is it convincing enough? Lower resolution though it may be, the God of War Collection…
The launch of the PSPgo is just around the corner, and Sony have been out showing off some new pre-paid PSPgo cards, as well as providing info on just how much stuff is available for download on the handheld. First off, the stuff, Sony telling IGN that “16,000 pieces of digital content” will be available…
Toy company NECA have already released some God of War figures, yeah, but those are mean, and they’re pointy. We like this one better, because it’s cute, and cuddly. It’s a custom Mighty Muggs figure by Likhang Pinoy Customs, and goes well beyond what you’d expect from such an endeavour, with an assortment of hand-crafted…
Americans love a bit of blood, a bit of grunty men tearing things in twain. So Americans will be getting the God of War Collection in 2009. Europe, though? Home to Greek mythology? Yeah, Europe has to wait. Sony Computer Entertainment Europe have confirmed with VG247 that that “it will not be possible to release…
