Game Review: God of War III

So today this afternoon, I finally finished “God of War III”. I played the game in Easy mode, and then Chaos mode, the difficult level. Yep, I finished the game in Chaos mode. It took me longer to beat ’cause the battles are longer and much more challenging. Overall, I find the game pretty impressive. Graphics are great, music is great, and the story is great, but what impressed me the most is the gameplay. The gameplay is pretty amazing and brutal. Lots of blood and gore, and nasty moves that might make your stomach upset.

There are a couple of dissapointments though. 1. The game is way too short, only 9 chapters. 2. The ending was dissapointing and could have been better. 3. This is the final and last God of War game ever.

Will there be a God of War IV game down the road? I think there will be.

I watched the behind the scenes featurettes in “God of War III” game and I didn’t know that Marvel’s, Stan Lee, helped them out with the game. He just pitched in ideas and gave them advice of what Stan Lee liked and didn’t like about the game. Also, celebrities, Rip Torn and Malcolm McDowell did voice overs for two different characters which is cool.

Everybody thinks Kratos is the hero of these games…but when you play God of War III, you would find out that Kratos was actually evil after all this time. It’s not really a spoiler ’cause there was already evidence of that from the first two games. God of War III was great and a blast to play. Chaos mode wasn’t exactly all that hard, you just got to have skill, patience, practice and intelligence to get good at it. You have to pay attention to what you’re doing.

Next game I plan on moving on to is “Red Dead Redemption”, the cowboy western game, I’ll start playing that game later on tonight. I was going to go on to “Bioshock 2” after this but other gamers have talked me into playing “Red Dead” next.

Playing games online on the PS3…

So on my day off of work today, I decided to spend some time to see if I can connect to the internet on my Ps3 so I can play games online. I unhooked my wireless modem, I use a small tiny modem called Netgear, I’m sure you’ve all heard of it. I unhooked it from my computer and hooked it to the PS3.

I was doing all the settings, connections and installations for the wireless modem on the ps3 and surprisingly enough, I successfully connected to the internet on my PS3. However, when I went to sign up for the Playstation Network so I can play games online, the Playstation Network server site was down for maintenance, and I’m like damn.

Hopefully the Playstation Network site will be back up tonight so I can sign up. I want to play Deathmatches on Grand Theft Auto IV so I can sign on and kick some ass. I am pretty skilled and talented at GTA, so beware. I am good at aiming and quick at killing people with guns in the game, so I ought to do better than all them kids playing online.

I wish the Network server would go back up ’cause I actually want to play GTA IV online right now! But I guess I will have to wait a while. I’m glad everything worked well as I said it would below. It did take a little over an hour to figure it all out though but I did it!

I didn’t need an ethernet cable at all, as long as you already have a wireless internet, use that instead.
