The final chapter in the God of War trilogy manages to outperform all previous versions in week one and becomes one of the fastest-sellers of 2010 to date
Following on from the massive success of Final Fantasy XIII last week which managed to sell over one million copies on PS3 and on the back of some very strong reviews, God of War III set a similar sales benchmark for the week ending 20th March 2010 with just over 1.1 million units sold worldwide. In terms of regional breakdown around 700,000 units were sold in the Americas and 400,000 in Europe and Other Regions (excluding Japan).
The Opening Levels that hooked gamers from the outset.
Cultured Vultures: Let’s delve into Kratos’ long and rampageous history and find out which games are worth the hype and which are better left buried under the weight of Kratos’s might.
Both requels over 2 and 3? Clowns. Those are two of the most boring games I've ever played.
My favorite was part 2 and I think Ragnarok is better that 2018.
There is no worst. Except for Ascension, only cause I didn't play it lol. They are all masterpieces. 1,2,3, 2018 and Ragnarok. 1 of, if not the greatest video game franchise...besides MetalGear.
Can't agree, older games do so much more than the last two. More weapons, magic abilities, enemies are more varied, level design is also more aesthetically pleasing, and agree with those who say that they shouldn't have removed jumping. Was a time I'd agree, but those old games are so so much better, that they really should've looked into bringing into the reboot/sequels.
God of War 3 Remaster has sold 4 million copies since its inception, making the franchise PlayStation's most profitable gamer merch brand.
Haha I still remember my brother playing the opening scene on ps3!!!
Yeh he had to put the controller down his heart was beating too fast trying to get past first 10 minutes. He said "it's too much". Best thing I've ever seen in gaming. Haha
I know this is unpopular opinion, but I prefer these over the new ones. I’m not saying the new ones are bad or anything, but they sort of get boring to me, whereas the older games were like non-stop roller coaster rides.
Just managed to sell a Million......u know the funny thing is xbox360 games do those Numbers in day 1 and they don't need to struggle to get to a Million.
1 million in less than one week! 700,000 in the Americas alone.
And the Xbox fanboys say PS3 exclusives don't sell. Somebody's lying.
Hopefully the God of War movie will fair a little better
Very nice, will pick my copy up soon
Just got mine.I'll be M.I.A. to the family for a couple of days.
