Hi everyone
As you probably know, the highly anticipated God of War III will be released in most European territories on 17th March 2010, with the game hitting the shelves in Australia and New Zealand on 18th March and finally the UK, Ireland, Germany and Austria on 19th March. Not long to go guys, be patient, the wait is almost over!
Meanwhile, in case you haven’t seen them, here are our TV and Print ads which will run across Europe. Hope you like them both!
That’s it for now, stay tuned for some more God of War news.
Thach

This is a great ad! It is informative, it is exiting, it is clear from all the jidder and other stuff that distract you from the main attraction (the game). This has a great voice that make you exited for the game and you can heard what he say! This AD is the best yet and I hope it still improves for the next one. Right know SONY US has the best ad, but EU is getting a bit better.
I HOPE I SEE THIS AD ALL AGROUND SWEDEN and other Nordic countries! I want this game to sell butt loads of copies! This graphic is just amazing!
BUT SCEE should also say that ” This is only possible on PS3″ so people understand the power of PS3. It is also true because Santa Monica uses one of the CELL spu for anti aliasing (MLAA method) that only a CELL processor can handle.

Im Glad You Guys Got Rid Of The Whole “Cardboard” thing.
But, im not really liking the EU’s ad campagin.
Look at what America are doing at the min, the Kevin Butler Ads.
There epic, and im laughing at each and every one !

So when is Go of War collection getting announced as a standalone retail package – because without being able to get that first to see the story I will never get God of War 3.
19
Posted on 5 March, 2010 at 7:09 pm by FBZ1501
All very good and it looks like an epic game…..
However i want to get the fully benefit from the story and play GOW 1 and 2 first.
So whats with the ridiculous delay and no date for the UK GOW Collection?
You have already missed out on the xmas market for it and it seems that you have put it on hold until GOW3 is out.
Can we at least get a date or do i just give up on a UK version and import a US copy for just about £25 online?

Will the GoW Collection be stand alone released in Europe?
21
Posted on 5 March, 2010 at 7:45 pm by FlexmanUK
I played the demo, which seems like Heavenly Sword but with added tedium of having to beat the same things things repeatedly into submission, again and again. Beat the lion thing to death, not once, not twice, after the third time I threw down the controller in sheer boredom.
It doesn’t seem that great to me especially when it plays so much like a Platinum title with different art and no humour.
Videos in this blog still don’t work on Playstation 3 systems.
22
Posted on 5 March, 2010 at 7:51 pm by JordanBlack68
Yeah, please release the stand alone for GOW Collection.

Liking the trailer. Also the printed ad looks cool. Looking forward to this

i would love to have it!

Any information regarding God of War Collection standalone release date? I’d like to finish GoW I & II before I start playing God of War 3 if possible, and I don’t want to be forced to import the collection from the US. Please don’t keep us in the dark :/

What happened to the God of war III Ultimate trilogy box in the UK? no where sells it!
31
Posted on 6 March, 2010 at 7:26 pm by skidpro
@big Boss MSF eh? Try GAME! and have £110 squids ready, or import GOW collection for £30 and buy GoW3:)
32
Posted on 7 March, 2010 at 12:45 pm by FBZ1501
There is more posts here asking about the GOW Collection than GOW3.
As it is a blog, an answer from SCEE or the developers would be nice!
33
Posted on 7 March, 2010 at 4:41 pm by danicatarino14
Can Sony please give us a satisfying answer: Will you provide more GOW: Ultimate Trilogy Editions or Not?? If you will, when and where will you do it??
34
Posted on 7 March, 2010 at 7:21 pm by HazelAM
i won’t even bother asking about the collection because it’s clear by now that you’re just going to ignore the question.
you didn’t even bother explaining why you decided not to release the collection europe four months ago, and don’t give me that “the publisher didn’t submit it ” crap, because sony is the publisher.
therefore it would fall under scee in europe, but you chose, yes you made a concious decision to deny europe the chance to buy this title.
to be honest i’m beginning to take your attitude as an insult, it’s really putting me off buying the game, new anyway, when it’s half the price preowned than maybe i’ll buy it.
i would hope more people would decide not to subsidise this shoddy division, but i guess lots of people can overlook this worthless company and buy a a quality title.
i wont however, simply put you don’t deserve my money.

and now i hear the full hd trailer of gt5 included with the us version is nowhere to be found on the eu disc.
what the hell is with you people?
your job is to bring us content not prevent us getting it, pull your collective fingers out your collective arses and do the job you’re actually supposed to be doing for once.

Posted on 8 March, 2010 at 10:42 am by StefNighthawk
I won’t buy GOW III as long as the GoW collection is not available or until the GoW Ultimate Trilogy Edition becomes better available.
37
Posted on 8 March, 2010 at 12:02 pm by VictorAnalogy
@30 & 31: I’m pretty sure it sold out. You might get lucky on ebay? I preordered mine on the day it was announced and now when I click on the preorder item it just links to the game storefront. I think that’s what they do once they’ve issued all the preorders they have available.
38
Posted on 8 March, 2010 at 2:07 pm by Black101Wings
The UK ad is trying to be different that’s all really and, I happen to like the ads, very creative indeed.
39
Posted on 8 March, 2010 at 3:46 pm by SmoggyPhil
et tu GoW Collection?
Or can we expect the EU to be shafted again?
40
Posted on 8 March, 2010 at 3:50 pm by VictorAnalogy
@SmoggyPhil: Doesn’t look like anyone is listening.
If they are planning to release the collection separately I wouldn’t expect to hear about it until after the Ultimate Trilogy has been released. A lot of people (myself included) ordered the collectors edition because it includes the GoW Collection.
41
Posted on 8 March, 2010 at 5:05 pm by HazelAM
i’ll play this game when i can get it half price preowned and not before.
i’d rather wait than subsidise incompetence.
42
Posted on 9 March, 2010 at 7:34 am by HazelAM
yeah, keep ignoring people, that’s always been a good tactic in customer relations, but then scee have it all backwards anyway, you lot seem to think you make money by not releasing content.

Hi Thach Quach, Please, can you tell us which languages will include the Uk editions?
Thanks in advance.
