God of War Collection

Overview

God of War and God of War II originally debuted on the PlayStation 2, and the God of War Collection brings both games to the PlayStation 3 on a single Blu-ray Disc. Both games have received high definition re-mastering & 2X anti-aliasing, and they output at a consistent 60 frames per second in up to 1080p (though it's rendered in 720p). Some in-game cutscenes did not receive a graphical upgrade, providing a stark contrast between the updated graphics and the classic ones.

Each game has a Platinum Trophy for players to earn. The God of War Collection became part of the PS3 "Greatest Hits" catalog in April 2010.

Vita Release

At E3 2013 it was announced that the game would to be coming to the PlayStation Vita and was later released on May 6th 2014 to a mixed critical reception with many critics complaining that the performance, graphics and audio of the game was not up to the standard of the other version of the game on other platforms.

Touch Features

The Vita release also included several touchscreen features to accommodate for the Vita's lack of L2 and R2 buttons.

The rear touch-pad replaces the missing buttons and is used to open doors, chests or activate save points.

The front touchscreen is used for various secondary actions:

• Weapon Switching - by pushing any part of the left half of the screen.
• Activating the Rage of the Gods - by pushing a small icon in the bottom-right corner of the screen.
• Dashing - by pushing a dash icon on the right side of the screen.

God Of War III Demo

The God of War Collection originally shipped with a voucher code that allowed gamers to download the demo that was originally shown to the press at E3 2009. The demo has since become available for download from the PSN for everyone.
