Sony unleashes survey for God of War III Collector's Edition photo

#God of War #PS3

Sony is currently passing around an electronic survey asking God of War fans what they want from a possible God of War III Collector’s Edition. It would be foolish for Sony not to release an extravagantly priced version of the game -- c’mon, we’ll all buy it -- so we’ll take this as an interesting look at what Sony is considering tossing in the package.

Here are some of the key items that the surveyed can rate between one and ten. (One being the “least important.") You can view the rest of the items in the gallery below.

God of War and God of War II on Blu-ray disc
Art book
Access to exclusive downloadable content
Developer commentary
Kratos Statue/Figure/Bust

I don’t know about you guys, but I’m digging the prospects of getting all three GOW titles in one cute, limited edition package. Which of these are the most important to you? Is there anything in the survey that you definitely don’t want to see?

[Thanks Brian and Trevor!]

When I finished the survey, I was hoping "oh hey maybe we'll get to have a chance of winning it!". Of course that was so stupid of me! I mean a GoW wallpaper is a perfect substitute.

Discarded Couch Sandwich

I hate the idea of exclusive DLC, so that's a no go. Regardless that I already have them though, the previous two games would be quite excellent to have on a single disc. I'd love to see that actually happen.

Mr Kite

I really like statues in the likeness of video game characters, I curse everyday I live without that fucking Big Daddy statue. That being sad the God of War trilogy packing would be awesome.

Corak

Interesting. I'd definatly get the collectors edition if it had the previous 2 titles on the disc or a seperate one. The other choices seem like the regular run of the mill collectors edition stuff.

linuxguy

God of war I & II on bluray? YES PLEASE

Rankcanine

i love the God of War series its Sony's only good franchise.

linuxguy

also ,what about BC-less ps3s?

tigerfangred91

It would literally be one of the most epic things I have ever seen if all three were packaged together.

ArrestedDeveloper

@discarded couch sandwhich

Thinking back on the old GoW's I'm sure the exclusive DLC would be something like costumes.

linuxguy

Rankcanine :ratchet and clank ,uncharted ,Jak ,buzz ,resistance ,ico/SotC and many more would like to have a talk with you

Agent Orange

Statue, soundtrack and GoW I/II on blu-ray for me, thanks.

Kryptinite

I want the fucking swords!

pascuz46

Ill definatly buy the LE version, Im looking forward to it actually. I think everything there is great except GOW 1 and 2 rereleased. I already have then, so I dont need them again. I would prefer art work and free DLC.

Naim Master

Bust , Art Book and the two GOWs , t he rest can go to hell .

pedrovay2003

I had the first God of War, but I really couldn't get into it. However, if one of the biggest releases of this year ends up being the entire series in one package, then I'm all for it. That'd get me to give it a try again.

Mushman

Damn, that is an awesome list.

If they have to cut something out, let it be the figure, I could care less about video game colletor's stuff. I just want the art book and GOW 1 AND 2 on a blu ray disc so I cam see them in FULL HD.

Oh, and of course GOW 3.

I Predict A Ryan

GOW & GOW II is the obvious choice. I'd also go for the Kratos figure and the DLC. If it's anything else then I just won't bother.

I barely even looked at the art work book that came in both Gears of War limited edition boxes.

Black Nexus

3 GOW in one package , SOLD.

Chronic Logic

I request an art book of Kratos killing monsters while having sex.

stafax

I was hoping that GOW 3 would be like GOW 2, having the standard edition as the 2 disc special edition.

EternalDeathSlayer

I'd prefer the figurine/bust since I have the original games. But if they added 5.1 sound and some 720p to the originals, I'd have a hard time saying no.

Also, can they just release the game already and make my life complete? Come on Sony, hurry the fuck up. I can't wait another year!

Togail

Give us all of it?

Spectreman

* Enhanced versions will be great. But how Sony will do to PS2 games work with no retro-compatible PS3? And if they do with one game, can do with others...

habslove

All games all together? Yes please. Hopefully the price wouldn't be along the lines of RE5's CE

Gotenks0053

How do you get the survey? And do want most of the things on the list, especially GoW 1+2 on Blu-Ray!

dmgi

Is there an estimate for the price and release date?

Razor Kitten

The ability to play all the God of War games on one disc sounds great. Whenever I feel the need to play through all three, I won't have to dig out the other two discs. Less work is good!

The Kratos figurine would be sweet for my office. He would stand guard on my bookshelf next to the Fallout 3 bobblehead.

Arttemis

I'm with Pedrovay2003; the first God of War wasn't my favorite game, but it would be very hard for me to pass up a new, influential action title when it's conveniently packaged with the entire series.

DinnertimeNinja

All three on one disc is a no brainer.

Not only will it appeal to people who loved the previous games in the series but it could encourage people who've never played the previous games (and don't want to be bothered to buy them and break out a PS2 if they don't have a BC compatible PS3) to buy the Limited Edition.

DO IT, SONY! WE WANT THE TRILOGY ON ONE DISC!!

starsneverpass

Do you guys who are voting for the figurine/statue realize that there are already some pretty cool kratos figures out on store shelfs now, for 15 bucks? A bust would be cool, but the figure is a sweet enough likeness and is available now.

The first 2 games if they were upgraded slightly... hell, they don't even need that,would be AWESOME, and I still own the ps2 versions... as long as it wouldn't delay GOW3.

Qraze

three great games o two discs would be the shit.

brainderailment

What would be the point of the first two games on bluray, when the majority of PS3s don't have BC? I own them both still, so I wouldn't have voted for that anyway.

Theos

I don't even have a PS3 and I'm considering getting this CE.

LostSoulDX

This is the game that will make me finally cave and buy a PS3. For a CE, I'd love to see a Kratos figure and/or GoW & GoW II on a blu-ray disc. I think both would be pretty sweet.

Necros

Art book and statue for sure!

Timstuff

Do want GOW 1 & 2, art book, and Kratos bust.

Master Lee

GOW 1 and 2. Enhanced with new textures for HD. Sold at $100 for me.

Sexualchocolate

GOW 1&2 on disc and you've sold me my very first collectors edition.

I care not for action figures and art books I care not at all.

Takeshi

It is quite hard to choose. I'll go for... Fuck. I don't know.

Greylocke

Considering I've never played any GoW at all, I'd be more inclined to purchase it if it had the entire series.

Hitogoroshi

I want it all!

PixelJunky

So if they can even think of having God of War I and II on the same disk, this must mean PS2 emulation is going to happen for ALL PS3's?

akathatoneguy

As a person without a PS2 and who played the first GoW but didn't buy either of them, having all three would be awesome. And I'm always down for another nerd statue for my growing army.

Projectexodus

As I'm one of the rare people who missed out on the PS2 - and is frustrated by Sony's decision to remove BC from PS3's - I would be thrilled if they included the first two God of War games along with III. There are so many games from the previous generations that I've missed out on that I want to play.

Art book and figure is a must-have as well.

mossd

PLEASE - god of war one and two on bluray. i want that now actually. i went way out of the way to get my hands on a backwards compatible ps3 only to find that the ps2 games play - but they look like complete crap on a nice HD set so what's the point.

you would think that they could make a fortune they sold god of war one and two together on bluray with a graphics upgrade similar to the treatment half life 2 and escape from butcher bay.

pedrovay2003

Okay, so... Am I missing something here?

Why are a few people here complaining about backwards compatibility? That's why they'd be on a BLU-RAY DISC. All PS3s can read Blu-rays, seeing as how, you know, they have Blu-ray drives. Why would backwards compatibility be an issue here?

bhive01

Because, supposedly the reason BC isn't in the newer PS3s is because of the lack of the graphics engine from the PS2. Apparently it's rather difficult to emulate (doubtful). Putting it on a Bluray does not change the fact that it's coded for the GS.

vrplumber

All three games obviously plus the downloadable content. The rest I could take or leave(but take is awesome):)
