During the video game awards last year the first official in-game trailer of God Of War 3 was shown and surprisingly it received mixed reviews. Coming off that amazing E3′08 trailer everyone expected that level of quality and when the footage was shown there were many let downs but, don’t worry because there’s more too come. Killzone 2 was Sony’s true test to see if CG quality and in-game graphics could rival one another and the results were astounding and based off those results gamers wanted more out of God of War 3. In the coming months we may very well see for the second time around that the Cell Processor was really worth the investment.

God Of War 3 has been overhauled in a major way since the video game awards debut footage. Now the game looks extremely real and very polished but the most exciting thing about the screenshots below is the fact that more is being done to the overall game leading up to it’s march 2010 release. Most importantly the games graphics are still being worked on and currently it’s aiming to achieve 1080p 60fps.

” It will come close to it and you will not be disappointed, the game is still a ways off but we’re confident that gamers will love the final product come march 2010 so stay tuned for the coming months” (Sony Representative)

God Of War 3 is already gearing up to be a masterpiece and by the looks of it now, be prepared for another graphical and gameplay jump in time for this blockbuster release
