One of the biggest games of 2010, God of War III, has been deemed "complete" by Sony director John Hight. Kratos' next big adventure has entered the beta testing phase, where the Ghost of Sparta is to be put through rigorous quality assurance.
"We just made beta with the game so we're doing a lot of play-testing, tuning the game to make sure that it's fun, got the right level of complexity and of course optimised so that it runs super-smooth," confirms Hight. "The entire game is complete -- we're not adding anything to it."
Barring any unforeseen problems, God of War III is still ready to hit the PS3 in March of next year. Should be a nice early big'un for Sony, and one can expect it to rival even Uncharted 2 in terms of massively positive reviews. PS3 fanboys will still find a reason to complain though, I'm sure.

I'm sure this game will blow our minds
I kid....sorta....ergh piracy bad!
Not only are you the month of my birthday... but your also the month I get to see precious new God of War footage!
Stop with the PS3 Fanboy digs.
They are awful whinge bags... we know! But you obsessing over it only fuel the flames.
"Going Gold"= Ready for release.
"Complete"= Not adding any new content, but testing needs to be done.
complete = story, levels, cutscenes, gameplay, etc. are all finished and no more features are going to be added. there may (probably are) be plenty of glitches though that need to be thoroughly tested for and fixed.
gold = ready to ship for mass market consumption. as far as the developer can tell, the game should be glitch free.
Pretty sure I mean PS3.
Where is this footage, internets?
Not being shown publicly till January.
The footage was shown to the press at a private function recently.
Isn't being 'fun' what matters?
A game's nothing if you don't enjoy it.
Demo soon then?
I wasn't talking to you.
Me: "FUUUUUUUCK"
imagine this built from scratch for wiimote and nunchuck and wm+ that's gaming
the above is button mashing repetitiveness in hd
I kid, God of War is good...if you're into that sort of thing. I'm waiting for Bayonetta instead.
But waiting 4 years for the end to begin, fuck.
You're not speaking for all of us, a lot of people "give a crap" about God of War. So... think again, hah! You have been rebuttled...
I should just shut up now.
