Somehow I think you will end up buying it.
I'm going to preorder now.

Any idea if this release will come with the dlc for the third game?

Thanks op. Just submitted my trade-in to Amazon for GoW Collection (GoW 1&2) for $13.50 and I have GoW 3 still in shrink wrap that I should be able to return to Walmart for at least $20 store credit (it's currently selling for $30, but I don't know the lowest price they've sold it for in the past). In the end I should get Origins Collection for free ^_^

Still debating because I have 1-3, but I have 1 and 2 for PS2. Is the HD upgrade noticeable? And someone above said Origins wasn't a big download, which is one of the problems I had cuz I'm running out of space. Does anyone know the size? And does newegg charge right away or when it ships? Thanks.

thanks op! i just needed the psp remakes but for that price might as well get few extra gmes!


wait... doesn't it say "Come August 28th, you’ll be able to pick these beauties up starting at $29.99!" at that Sony annoucement page? is this MSRP?

Good find op!

Amazon Trade In Values:
God of War: Collection - $13.50
God of War 3 - $10.80
God of War: Origins Collection - $16.20
= $40.50

"Starting at $29.99" which is just the Ratchet and Clank Collection; the others are $40.

I would buy this right now but with the other games coming out (Sleeping Dogs, ACIII, Halo 4...), I'm just going to wait until Black Friday and get this on special. Hopefully it is on special and I'll probably have some free time during Jan 2013 to re-play all these games.

Yeah, I just saw that and it stopped me. It's ok since I own all the games on the PS3 already, but it would've been cool to have them all in the same case.

Oh noes!

I just realized that if part of the saga is download-only, than we can't purchase the full game used!

This is rather smart of them to do business-wise. But it still upsets me. I would be all-in at $20. Its just that I've already bought God of War 1 and 2 two times - and then traded them in. (original PS2 games, and the first GoW collection.)

Silly Sony - tricks are for kids. Booo!


Anyway, good find OP. I'm sure some people will be all over this deal.

That's a really good deal. It's basically $10 each for God of War Collection, God of War Origins Collection, and God of War 3. If you don't own any of the games this seems like a no-brainer (especially since it even comes with a 1 month Plus membership).

Even assuming the trade values hold, that wouldn't work unless you can get the original boxes/manuals for the games since they require the UPC and everything to be an exact match. The only place disc-only trades might fly is Best Buy or Gamestop, but this package might not even have the discs labeled in the same way as the original releases (it might say "God of War Saga: God of War 3" or something, or they might even package it all on the same disc).

Edit: I guess you're saying people could trade in their current copies and then buy this. Hmm, that might work then, although the Origins Collection sounds like it's a digital release in this edition might turn people away from that. Probably best to lock in trade values quick then since they might drop pretty soon.

^ I think he posted that for people wanting to trade in their current versions.

Never mind, you beat me with a ninja edit.

yeah just trying to give some more information out to my OP, I dont post often but I am glad the majority like the deal. Thanks to all, enjoy.

Myself also in addition, as well. If it's not physically on the disc, you don't technically own it.

Yeah, I played them by release date (kinda) and enjoyed it quite a bit that way.

Also, if you're new to the series, after you play 1 or 2 of them, I'd recommend bumping the difficulty up to hard. I played through 3 on Normal difficulty and was really disappointed with how easy I blew through it. Hard difficulty gives the game a much better challenge curve (in my opinion)

What an amazing deal. Jumped on that shit. Thanks OP!

Hopefully this and the Rachet Collection will hit $10 at some point.

this is perfect..havent played the GoW series for the PS3, was thinking of buying em but now ill be getting this. awesome!
