Sony has announced that the God of War Collection has officially gone gold and is now   scheduled for shipping  on November 17. The action pack bundle introduces fans and newcomers alike to experience the first two God of War games to the PS3 in HD presentation. It also contains a download code for the much awaited PS3 exclusive God of War III demo. But that's not all, Sony has also revealed the PS3 trophy list for each collection.

He's bad-ass, he's brutal, he just looks sick from every angle - and he can strike from any angle, too. That's Kratos for you. But if God of War III art director, Ken Feldman, had his way, we'd be looking at the Blades of Chaos from Kratos' eyes. That's right, he wanted God of War III to be an FPS.

Following last month's release of Final Fantasy VII's International Edition on the Japanese PSOne Game Archives, Square Enix has also put the original Final Fantasy Tactics online. Man, that Japanese PSOne Archive just keeps on growing. Anybody else bummed out / getting insanely jealous because of this? I'm more of the latter, personally.

Concluding the week-long run of God of War III Q&A sessions, we now have the final interview with combat director Adam Poole. Being the last (and definitely not the least), this one's probably the juiciest of all. I mean, dude, we get info from the combat director - how cool of job is that? The Cestus weapon (which is now twice the fun of GoW Chains' Gauntlet of Zeus!), combos, special moves, fire arrows, centaurs, and how they took some inspiration from fighting games.

If there's something worth doing, it's worth overdoing. And if Kratos wants an army to pwn Zeus' sorry ass, he'll have no less than an army of titans in tow. God of War III picks up right where the previous game left off - the recent trailer pretty much made that clear. And do we have any room for more titans invading Olympus? Sure we do. Five bucks says we'll have a cutscene where Kratos is camping out on Fire Titan's back, roasting s'mores and singing songs on a guitar with the harpies.

Looks like Almighty Zeus was left out of the party - man, he'll probably go ballistic again once he finds out he doesn't have his own Sackboy costume. Not like his son, of course. As you may know, one of the LittleBigPlanet pre-order freebies is the Kratos costume. Over at GameStop, they're apparently giving away more than just the Ghost of Sparta. You also get a Medusa and Minotaur skin, plus a God of War map. Check out the TV spot in the full article, it even includes a bit of a run through of the GoW-inspired stage.

WipEout HD is just around the corner! The PSN downloadable title will finally go live the day after tomorrow (i.e. September 25). And what of Trophies? Maybe one of them is unlocked by not getting a seizure, ya? Check out the 411 on Trophies for WipEout HD in the full article.

After Square Enix's FF13 cross-platform announcement yesterday, some people have learned to not count all their exclusive chicks before the eggs hatch. Here's something, however, that we can all be sure is pretty much already in the basket: God of War 3 finally showed itself during Sony's press conference at E3 via a teaser trailer, and man, we can't wait! And it isn't much of a long wait either! Catch that rampaging Titan and head to the full article to watch the trailer and for more details.
