Look at this bad motherfucker. Guan Yu was incredible in battle. All of you expecting Kratos, that's nice, but this guy and his deeds are REAL. Keep in mind this is the Guan Yu that is in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms series, and Dynasty Warriors (and its offshoots) - in case you're wondering why this is on gaming-side.

The statue has just been unveiled in Guan Yu Park in Jingzhou, China. It’s 58 metres (190ft) tall and weighs over 1,320 tonnes, and it contains over 4,000 strips of bronze. It was designed by Han Meilin, who is probably best known for his designs of the 2008 Beijing Olympics mascots, and the monument is so big that there’s even an 8,000sqm museum inside it! Guan Yu lived during China’s turbulent Three Kingdoms period. He carried an axe-like weapon called a Green Dragon Crescent Blade, which has been immortalised with him as part of the statue. The only difference is that the weapon now weighs 136 tonnes! Did we mention this statue was epic?

Just look at this badass:

And while it was under construction:

Truly fitting for a REAL god of war.

Maybe we expected it because you posted it in Gaming?
