Rumor: God of War III US release date revealed

Many retailers have their systems speculate on release dates for titles until the publishers officially release a confirmed date. GameStop is now highlighting the release date for God of War III as March 16th. What makes this date different from other dates in the system is that this title is street dated for the 16th. What this means is that GameStop will get the game in likely a week or so before the official release and they'll be required to hold them until March 16th to sell them to consumers.

GameStop had the title slated for March in their system prior to this, but the 'Street Date' label is new and is likely the confirmed release date for the title. Usually, GameStop doesn't street date titles until they know an official release date. Thus far, Sony has only stated that the title will release in March. It's been confirmed that God of War III will hit Japan on March 25th.

With a large amount of God of War III content set to be released in a week, it's possible we could hear a potential official release date, too. What will be released in the relative future, though, will be new media and hands-on impressions of the latest build of the game that was shown to the media just before the end of last year. We have some screens of this beautiful game to share with you below.

    i really hope they do get it up to native 1080P 60 FPS because i remember reading a interview a few weeks ago with stig saying there struggling to get it 1080P 30 FPS so they will probably drop it down to 720P 60 FPS.
    but since the whole game is finished and is in beta and is due out in less than 2 months i seriously can not see that happening.
    i hope im wrong, but i seriously doubt they will get it to 1080P 60 FPS.
    darksiders in January.
    dantes inferno in February.
    and GOW in March.
    life dont get any better than this!
