God of War 3 News & GoW3 Reviews

God of War III Censored by ESRB logo

God of War has always been trademark brutal and seemed to have stretched the boundaries a lot in GoW1 & 2. However, Entertainment Software Rating Board (ESRB) has decided that God of War 3 is pushing it too far. ESRB has clamped down on sites showing God of War 3 trailers and forced them to show censored God of War 3 videos. GameTrailers.com has been one of those that have borne the brunt to unreluctantly show the below censored footage:

Yeah! Those pesky “Censored by ESRB” messages during the finishing moves are a real irritant. Though ESRB intentions are honest, the way they have gone ahead in censoring these videos is questionable. ESRB hasn’t been able to clearly censor everything that should have been censored as you can see in the video. The other issue is why do we have to type in our age if we still would be presented with censored gameplay. Censored gameplay viewing is okay for kids, but showing it to mature audiences is childish!

Also, what about video community sites like Youtube that already have the uncensored God of War 3 Trailers? A better solution would be that ESRB and SCEA (or other video developers) come together to decide what would be appropriate footage that can be publicly displayed, prior to events such as E3. This would be a common sense and pro-active.
