By The Gods, It's The Epic God Of War III Ultimate Edition

Ok, fan boyism over for now. But what you are looking at is the God Of War III Ultimate Edition. A nice little collection that includes quite a bit of extras for us die hard fans that will be willing to shell out $99 to $120 for this edition. No, prices have not been stated yet outside of $99 at GameStop, but you can imagine this is going to be around the asking price for it. Just look at the Modern Warfare one and you can make the comparison. In any instance, here's what comes inside.

Exclusive Collectibles

High-End Sculpted Replica of Pandora's Box

Limited-Edition God of War Art Book featuring exclusive art, content and interviews

Exclusive Digital Content (Available via PlayStation Network voucher codes on day of launch)

God of War Combat Arena containing an exclusive environment and seven challenges

Premium Kratos Skin – Dominus

God of War: Unearthing the Legend Franchise Documentary – a full-length movie documentary depicting the history of the God of War franchise

God of War Trilogy Soundtrack – God of War, II, and III scores from the game (mp3 digital download).

God of War: Blood and Metal EP – a heavy metal homage featuring original music inspired by God of War (mp3 digital download).

Not a bad fucking deal when you look at it. While it does seem standard fare when it comes to collections like this, SCEA is going one step even further. Actually make it two steps further for those who pre-order this epic monstrosity of awesomeness. If you pre-order God of War III at Amazon, GameCrazy, or GameStop you will receive a voucher code to download the God of War III E3 2009 Demo, TODAY. On top of that, you will receive an exclusive downloadable skin for the game based on the retailer. See them below here. I'm assuming they go in this order as well, as it was how the PSBlog posted them.

Amazon|GameCrazy|GameStop

So get an awesome collection, access now to play the E3 demo, and another downloadable skin to go with all the others. This has truly made my 2010 and we are still months away from then and the game launch in March. Time to pad the wallet a bit more to prepare for the epic hit it will be taking.
