    Link. 
     
    The main art -- my personal favorite -- is going to be the one depicting Kratos' angry, staring eye, while the alternate one is going to depict Kratos in a menacing pose.

     Regular boxart.

    that's what the article said I think, at least for GoW 1 and 2 you could do that.

    Seeing that box art, I can't help but wonder how David Jaffe must feel about his most well-known character being nothing more than one of the most generic balls of stupidly masculine rage in any video game ever.  I mean seriously, where do you take this character once he literally has nothing left to kill?

    @Hailinel:   I thought it was pretty obvious that Kratos is going to die in God of War 3.  Maybe I'm wrong though.

    @Hailinel: A friend and I thought an interesting way to end the roid rage of God of War's story was from the perspective that Kratos was effectively killing off polytheism. As the only god left, he then essentially becomes YHVH, or possibly more accurately, Yaldabaoth, and ushers in a new age of strict monotheism. At least some commentary along those lines would be nice, not that I'd actually expect it to happen.

    That would be an interesting path for the story to take.  I'd actually support the story going in this direction, though as you said, it's likely not going to happen.

    Well he's died at least once in both of the other games, so it would be odd if he didn't :P

    Same. Atleast make it look like the start of the demo with half his face, or position the eye in the center of the box...It just looks awkward.

    I like the pose better than the eye. Eye just looks odd.
