For those who picked up a copy of God of War: Chains of Olympus today, you might have seen the ad on the back of instruction manual. Clearly an ad for the PlayStation 3 version of God of War, it simply reads "Coming Soon" with no real information.
Our sources are indicating that GameStop/EB Games will begin taking pre-orders for God of War III starting tomorrow. So if you're in the mood for throwing five dollars down to reserve a copy of a game which you've never seen or know anything about, tomorrow is the day for you. Seeing as how you should already be done with Chains of Olympus, you might want to consider trading it in towards your pre-order. Oh, I kid!
If you recall, information about Chains of Olympus started coming to light within days of God of War II's release. It's not a stretch to think that we may start seeing more on the God of War III within the week. Please?

Why would people preorder stuff that they know nothing about, especially considering it's not even confirmed and doesn't have a release date?"
I'd chalk it up to pedigree. There are some thing you just know you're gonna shell out for eventually anyway, no matter what; for me, it's console Zelda games, Linkin Park albums, and Pixar movies. Certainly some people are hardcore enough about God of War that they'll lay down the $60 regardless, so why not beat the rush?
Besides, God of War is a known entity at this point: Sony's premier first-party game, so it'll get plenty of development resources, and a hack 'n slash game, which is pretty predictable. If God of War III isn't a very fun and very samey sequel to God of War II, I'll be shocked.
