Nono they remastered God of War from DVD quality to BluRay quality since PS3 onwards. It was said by Stig himself that GoW 3 was exceptional and superior to GoW 1 and 2 due to the limitations that DVD /PS2 had. In fact, Kratos was bald due to these limitations because animating hair takes a lot of power and memory.
