Dream Theater drummer and background vocalist Michael Portnoy has announced on the band’s official site that it will be recording an instrumental track for God of War 3.

Here’s the quote:

In an unexpected move, we will then enter the studio right after New Year’s to write and record a brand new instrumental track for inclusion on the upcoming Gods Of War 3 soundtrack. This will mark the first time in the band’s career we have written and recorded an exclusive track for an outside project. Roadrunner invited us to participate and we decided we were up for the challenge!

Great news if you are a fan of the band and its music.

Want to see Kratos slash a bunch of evil minions with his Blades of Chaos? Sure you do, and thanks to Gamespot you can.

On passed the break, there is a new video featuring just such a thing.

It’s lovely, delicious and brutal.

Come on March 2010. Hurry the hell up.

Sony has confirmed that the God of War 3 demo included with the Blu-ray release of District 9 is for US only.

“That’s for the US only,” a Sony spokesperson told StrategyInformer. “We’ll announce our plans for the [UK] GOW 3 demo in due course.”

Looks like you’ll have to wait a bit longer, UK. Hopefully not much longer, but still, waiting is a bit crap.

Those interested in purchasing “District 9″ on Blu-ray when it comes out December 29 will get a surprise in the form of a God of War 3 demo.

“Blu-ray functionality has long been a differentiator that separates the PS3 from other home entertainment systems,” said SCEA’s Peter Dille in the press release. “Through this collaboration with Sony Pictures Home Entertainment we’re able to create a unique experience only available on the PS3 system that blends two of the most popular entertainment options available, watching ‘District 9′ and playing ‘God of War 3′ off the same disc.”

The God of War Collection will be released in the US next month, so this gives people a different demo opportunity should they decide not to purchase the game disc.

No word on whether the demo would be included with “District 9″ disc across the pond, but we’ll ask for you.

Press release is below.

Those looking forward to God of War III can get a bit of a fix while they wait, thanks to another fankit landing on the official site.

In it you will find a cyclops render, artwork, a series of high-res screens, etc.

One can never get enough Kratos, in our opinion at least.

Get yours here.

Game’s out in March 2010.

Sony has announced that the God of War III demo from E3 will be included in the God of War Collection for PS3.

Hell yes.

Each copy of the game will include a voucher code that can be redeemed through PSN on the day of purchase.

This is your chance to experience God of War III before it hits store shelves March 2010.

We are cursing with excitement here.

One lone screen “new” for God of War III has popped up over on GamesWire, and while it is indeed just one screen, it’s worth the click – he’s fighting Hades.

Getting really pumped for this game, we are.

It’s out next year.

Thanks, Monk.

Sean Cunningham, art director for God of War III, has said that he and the team are worried that Kratos’ newest adventure may be banned in Australia due to its ultra violent content.

“There is (concern),” he told Screen Play. “We try to push the boundaries a little bit. (But) we’ve had meetings and discussions and internally we all have a good gauge on what’s ‘too far’.

“You throw something past [content rating boards] and they might say ‘Absolutely not! You could not do that!’ and we’re all like: ‘Aww, c’mon, that was a great idea!’ There have been a couple of those.

“Also visually, everyone’s really excited. The disembowelment of the centaur, ripping Helios’s head off, the reaction from the floor has been amazing. Everybody in the studio is very happy.”

Game’s out in 2010, which should give the devs plenty of time to bow down to the Australian ratings board should they choose.

US PS Blog has more on this if you are interested.

The video for God of War III was just flipping awesome from what we heard.

If the screens posted on Eurogamer are any indication of what me missed being at home, then it was a fun romp with our favorite Spartan.

Go have a look.

Hopefully the video will be up soon.

Game’s out March 2010.
