''God of War'' is an action-adventure video game series loosely based on Greek mythology. Debuting in 2005, the series has become a flagship title for the PlayStation brand and the character Kratos is one of its most popular characters. The series consists of seven games across multiple platforms. Five of these have been re-released through three separate compilations for the PlayStation 3 (PS3) platform: ''God of War Collection'' (2009), ''God of War: Origins Collection'' (2011), and ''God of War Saga'' (2012). With the exception of ''God of War III'' in the ''God of War Saga'', each collection features remastered ports of the games that were not originally released on the PS3. ''God of War III'' was later remastered as ''God of War III Remastered'' and released on PlayStation 4 (PS4) in July 2015. ''God of War: Betrayal'' and ''God of War: Ascension'' are the only installments that have not been remastered for a newer platform or included in a collection. Each collection was praised for how the games were remastered, as well as their price. IGN claimed that the ''God of War Collection'' was the "definitive way to play the game()". ''God of War Collection'' prompted Sony to make a new line of remastered games for the PlayStation 3 (which has expanded to the PlayStation Vita and the PlayStation 4). Although the ''Origins Collection'' was criticized for its lack of new bonus content, IGN said that "Sony succeeded at making good games better." For the ''Saga'', Digital Trends claimed it is "perhaps the best value buy for any console available." ==''God of War Collection''== | director = | producer = | designer = | programmer = | artist = | writer = | composer = | series = ''God of War'' | engine = Bluepoint Engine | platforms = PlayStation 3 PlayStation Vita | released = PlayStation 3 PlayStation Vita | genre = Action-adventure, hack and slash | modes = Single-player }} ''God of War Collection'' is a remastered port of ''God of War'' and ''God of War II'' for the PlayStation 3 on a single Blu-ray Disc that was released in North America on November 17, 2009.〔 It is the first game under Sony's line of "Classics HD."〔 The collection was included in the ''God of War III Ultimate Trilogy Edition'', released on March 18, 2010, in Australia and New Zealand, and on March 19 in Europe.

The bonus materials of the original two-disc PlayStation 2 version of ''God of War II'' are included with the Blu-ray version of the collection.〔 The port was produced as a result of feedback from fans of the series and was viewed as a means of introducing new players to the series before ''God of War III'' was released. The ''God of War III'' game demo from E3 2009 was included with early copies of the collection. Sanzaru Games was responsible for porting the collection to the Vita. Sony's Santa Monica Studio—the games' original developer—ran a sweepstakes in November 2009 for the release of ''God of War Collection''. The grand prize was an autographed "Gold" disc, exclusive artwork created and signed by a ''God of War'' team member, a Limited Edition Kratos T-shirt, and a limited edition figurine of Kratos. First place prize was a copy of ''God of War Collection'' signed by the development team. Winners were announced in December 2009. On November 2, 2010, ''God of War Collection'' was released as a digital download on the PlayStation Store. PlayStation Plus subscribers can download a one-hour trial of each game. For a limited time, Plus subscribers received a ''God of War III'' skin with the purchase of each game: "Phantom of Chaos" (''God of War'') and "Forgotten Warrior" (''God of War II'') respectively. The bonus materials for ''God of War II'' were not included with the digital download version.〔 Patch update version 1.01, released on September 5, 2012, allows the PlayStation 3 version of ''God of War Collection'' to be played on the PlayStation Vita via the Remote Play function. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「God of War video game collections」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
