Gaia casts a long shadow over the hours that follow, and even a similar battle upon Cronos' massive body can't escape it, though it, too, remains a technical marvel in this remastered edition.Ħ0 frames per second and 1080p resolution aren't game-changers for Kratos' adventure, though they are certainly nice attributes to have God of War III Remastered is simply another chance to admire a game that we admired five years ago. That's not to say that the game isn't terrific fun, only that its unimaginative final encounter has nothing on the phenomenal opener. The question, then, is this: How could God of War III hope to top this sensational introduction? It doesn't, though it certainly tries, and allows God of War II to retain its position at the peak of this beloved series in the process. You are no longer conquering the Greek gods as an enraged antihero, but as a full-on villain. It's a striking and vicious design choice that sets the tone for the game to follow. When Kratos strikes his final blow, you see it not from his perspective, but from his victim's point of view, in the first person.
It is all sound and fury, almost unparalleled in its sense of scale and its translation of a protagonist's anger into bloody, brutal interactions. Gaia herself is one of Kratos' few remaining allies her cries of pain pierce the air as you swing your chained blades, launching ghoulish soldiers into the air and slicing away at Poseidon and his many-legged steed. As warrior-turned-deity-killer Kratos, you climb the Titan Gaia, who functions as a colossal, moving level upon which you battle Poseidon, the god of the sea. It's one of the most thrilling openings in all of video games.
