  • Exclusive Ultimate Edition Content - Along with the God of War III game the Ultimate Edition includes a wealth of exclusive physical and digital content. (see the full list of content below)
  • Only on the PS3 - The award-winning development team leverages the processing power and technology of PlayStation 3 system to make God of War III one of the most-graphically advanced next gen titles available, with even the dramatic cut screens running off the in-game engine.
  • Groundbreaking Depth of Scale - Kratos will explore areas up to 4 times larger than those found in God of War II, as well as carve through entire armies while navigating on the back of Titans - living, moving, breathing levels as tall as the Empire State Building.
  • Realism - Players will battle in detailed and unique 3D worlds lit by thousands of dynamic lights and textures with quadruple the resolution, which allows for realistic muscle striations, detailed facial expressions, and new heightened levels of brutality and gore.
  • Signature Gameplay - Brutal combat, intricate puzzles, exploration of awe-inspiring worlds, and a compelling and satisfying ending to Kratos’ epic story.
  • Sophisticated Storyline - The God of War III storyline is the epic conclusion to the trilogy; the storyline will be told in a way that is true to traditionalist roots in Greek mythology, from moral consequences to brutal battles against the gods.
  • Ridable Creatures - Several of the menacing creatures of Greek mythology in God of War III can now be manipulated against their will, as Kratos uses them to cross chasms, inflict blind rage against enemies, reveal puzzles and secrets, and as tools of complete annihilation.
  • New Weapons and Combat System - New deadly weapons such as the Cestus — powerful metal gauntlets with devastating strength — and other brutal instruments of war that will allow Kratos to learn ruthless new techniques such as grappling with enemies and launching explosive wall-to-ground attacks.
  • Lighting Technologies - The dynamic lighting solution employed in GOW III is only feasible through the computing power provided by the Cell SPUs. For example, using the High Dynamic Range Lighting (HDRL) technology, the camera – when using Krato’s sightline - will emulate the human retina, causing players to feel a sharp brightness when Kratos exits a dark area and enters a sunlit area, similar to how the human eye would need to adjust.

2.0 out of 5 stars 2 stars for collectors edition not game, March 17, 2010
Fun:2.0 out of 5 stars 
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: God of War III: Ultimate Edition (Video Game)
I remember back when collectors edition games were first coming out you really got a lot of stuff, it was like opening up a big gift on christmas morning. The GOW3 collectors or "ultimate" edition is far from ultimate.

You get a flimsy plastic "pandoras box" then inside is just the art book and the game and a piece of paper folded up into a box, that goes inside the box, to fill up all the empty space leftover. Theres other things listed on what you get, including multiple soundtracks, a documentary on how it's made, and an extra skin for your character. Cool in concept, but i was expecting cds and/or dvds or something, but instead all i got was a sheet of paper with "codes" that i go online to receive my goods.

It just feels cheap, like they wouldn't even shell out the money to give me something physical. It's like they'd rather opt out of the 20 cents for a CD and dollar for the DVD despite my paying 99 dollars (about 20-30 dollars more than most "collectors edition" games) The art book is about 1/4 the size of most other art books that come with games too, it's slightly larger than a deck of cards, which is quite the departure from their last art book that came with the game which was a little bigger than a graphic novel and chock full of great art, which is what i was expecting.

The game is great, 5 stars for the game, but only 2 stars for the collectors edition. It would get 1 star but the art book is still really good; their artists do amazing work. But unfortunately their marketing team does not, they seem to only be good at selling snake oil & plastic boxes. Don't get the collectors edition and DO NOT pay the outrageous 150.00+ that some people are selling it for. All you get is a plastic box, with the game, a list of "codes" to redeem online, and an art book roughly bigger than a deck of cards. I'm very disappointed...

2.0 out of 5 stars A review from a non-GoW fanboy., May 3, 2010
By Armando N. Roman (Hillsboro, OR) - See all my reviews
Fun:4.0 out of 5 stars 
This review is from: God of War III: Ultimate Edition (Video Game)
This review's coming from someone who doesn't flip out over everything God of War-related, or says that you should get something just because it has to do with God of War. Face it- for the price this 'ultimate' edition's going for, you probably want to be getting your money's worth, right? I hadn't played God of War 3 until I got this set just last week, and I didn't spend more than retail for it, but even then, I can't see how this is an 'ultimate' edition of God of War 3.

First up, the main selling point of this edition- Pandora's Box. It's a cheaply made plastic box that looks just like the one in the game. The plastic they used to make this is very soft, and you can probably snap the horns off of the sides with even a tiny bit of effort. There isn't a lot of fine detail on this, and it looks a lot like some kind of Halloween decoration you'd find at a party store in October. The bottom of the box has no detail at all either. This could make a decent box to hold candy in style, but given how it looks in-person, there's not a lot of style to it.

When you open Pandora's Box, the art book is waiting for you. This is probably the best thing about this set, aside from the game, and it's a lot better than the one that got released in the UK, which was rushed and had the same quality as your typical instruction manual. The US art book is a hardcover book, about 100 pages, and features tons of great art. Enemies, scenery, sketches, there's a lot of impressive work and if you're one of those fans that wants a GoW tattoo, this would be a good book to scout. The book isn't that big since it had to fit in Pandora's Box, but I don't have any complaints about it because you can see everything clearly.

Under the book, you'll see a black ribbon on the side of the 'bottom' of the box. Pull it up and it turns out that it was guarding a secret compartment (well, I use that term loosely) where the game is. Nope, there are no cds for the soundtracks that the box advertises, but instead, they're included as DLC, along with the Dominus skin, Exile Arena and documentary. There's a code for each bonus inside of the game case. The game features the same art as the retail version, and is identical except it doesn't have a bar code, and just says 'not for resale' in its place.

When it comes down to it, this sucker going for over a Benjamin is a rip-off. The game alone is worth around half of that, the DLC is cheap on its own (hint hint), the art book is nice but you can always find the same images online, and Pandora's Box is a joke. I know you can't expect much of a replica for the price, but they sure as heck coulda tried harder. Maybe if they included the God of War Collection like the UK version did, I'd be more forgiving since it'd be more for your buck. And if this is supposed to be the be-all edition of God of War 3, why include just one of the many skins available? Why not include all of them? But as it is, you're better off just getting the game on its own, and then getting the DLC separately.

I think Kratos would've went off about REVENGE(!) and tracked down those responsible for making it if he had seen this set.
