GOW3
I have never played Any of the god of war series (Dont have a sony console) But i have once wanted revenge myself but i never took it this far lol, Kratos is a spartan, Cursed by the gods to relive his worst memories at a constant rate (Eg murder of his famliy by accident) And then killed and sent to hades by his own father, I mean come on parents!, Who wouldnt be upset, Sure this game is violent, I have an attraction to extreme violence, but im not desensitized, I can just handle it, Personally i wish i could do what Kratos did to half the gods to people i hate, But i cant, Dont know why adults get so freaking upset about a darn game, Im not a mass-murderer because of this game, So get over it, (Educational because it tells you names of cirtain mythological creatures)

Lies Lies and more lies
Positive role model: I don't mean to say anything offencive, just want to make this clear.Kratos's main goal is to kill the gods at what ever cost now he is not doing it to fight for another religion or because he has converted to some other religion but the Greek gods are conciderd PEGAN and if you follow Islam or Christanity you can go on the adgenda that you are fighting for Allah, Christ or what ever other diety you follow. agian not trying to be offencive. Violience: If you let your kids play Darksiders you should let your kids play this, both games let you take down creatures with a verrity of weapons and powers. oh and the head ripping, arm and leg sevvering only lasts like 2 seconds same with the blood it dosen't even pool or stain the walls. Sexual content: Yes there are a lot of instences ware there are brestes showing up on monsters and the goddes aphrodite and her handmaids but the sex mini game is optional, you move on either way and the area is totally avoidable the only reason I would go there is to get the stuff around her bed including one of her garters witch gives you some upgrade. any way game is no ware as bad as they say it is just look up gameplay on youtube and see for your self oh by the way there is going to be no video ware the pig playing dosen't skip doin it with aphrodite so yeah

honestly its not healthy for anyone
to all the kids out there that are saying this game is fine, that is a flat out lie. I don't know what you are trying to accomplish but this game is one of the most violent games ever made and its full of boobs and sex. Parents, please don't buy this for your kids!

Iffy for 16
God of war 3 is very violent. Every weapon in the game causes blood and gore. And when fighting bosses you can finish them off with very gruesome moves. There is also a sex mini game that is pretty inappropriate, but I thinks its avoidable. But no matter what there is quite a bit of nudity in the game, weather your fighting or just roaming. It really depends on how mature your kid is.

Wow, this game got a little...gross at times. This is about three times more violent than the first two, but still awesome, though I wouldn't want anyone below the age of ten playing this, since the Hercules fight got a little graphic at the end. The biggest problem I had was the Aphrodite chamber, which I refused to even play and my dad passed for my siblings and I. It was an necessary attachment to satisfy the sadist players and fans. Other than screening the chamber, everything else is peachy clean.

Very goood game best game I"ve ever played on the ps3 the graphics are AMAZING if you are looking for a great action game and LOVE Greek mythology this is the game for YOU! but the violence is very gory and disturbing the sex in it is countless topless women those are my main concerns but the language is on the unlockable bonus videos and no one ever looks at those and if you're kid is in middle or high school they hear those words countless times every day

The Truth about God of War III
I think all kids know about the differance between reality and digital games. If you've taught your kids about this differance than they should be able to handle this game. It is very gory and bloody by the way.

God of War 3
I love this game but it has a lot of boobs from myth creatues and one part you can have sex with a girl near Pandora's dad.I wish you can block it but can't only by chaning the channle and going back but, if your parents or kids are fine with myth creatures boobs or other ladies then I would reccondmend you getting it it has a good story.Also if you are letting your kids play hack and slash games then get it it is so violent and gorey.For ps3 only, good game.

Mostly for 16 and up......
I've watched both my brothers play it, but I was pretty disgusted in some parts. (Like when Kratos rips off the Cyclops' eye) I mostly recommend for it to be for 16 and up. One of them is 23, the other is 18.

Really good game!
Like other God Of War games, this is very gory, bloodly and violent. It tells the story of a man who wants to revenge his family´s death by killing gods who let them die. It also has a lot of bad language. This game has one the best graphics I´ve ever seen (Final Fantasy XIII also). It´s a bit educational becaus I learnt the name of a lot of ancient gods.

I so love God Of War!
You know what?This is the most awesome game EVER!!I play this every single day on my PS3 after school for 3-6 hours and my dad has to practically drag me to the dining table Lol.However,there is EXTREME non stop,relentless killing,ripping and slicing,Kratos kills enemies in some of the most violent ways imaginable such as sticking chains in your enemies eyes and ripping them out with copious amounts of blood,ripping your enemy in half,bashing their head to bits,ripping their face off to expose the skull underneath,pummeling them to the ground,slicing them in two with their innards falling out or ripping their heart out all with Mortal Kombat style slow motion fatalities.Sex is copious and language is gratuitous.This is definitely NOT a game for any children or the faint hearted.NOT AT ALL.

I love it!!!
I think it teaches a lesson about Greek Mythology. And it has lots of violence I played the first god of war at 5 years old. And it was an awesome game. Though it has sexual things in it you can't see it only hear it. And my mom doesn't have a problem with nudity as long as it is too a standard. So my age would be 10 and up just because most parents wouldn't allow their 5 year old the play a mature game.

Sickeningly Gory
This game is fun, but pleassseee don't play it if you're under 18 or squeamish, like me. It'll practically make you sick from all the violence and gore.

educational value
I respectfully disagree with the educational value in this game, you can learn a lot about greek mythology, I think i learned 15% of what I know about the greek myths from this game, so this game teaches some educational things.
