Cross on Zeus's beard


Did anybody here notice how Zeus is wearing what resembles a Christian cross at the bottom of his beard? Was this just coincidence, or do you think the developers are intending for some kind of foreshadowing/religion reference?

Yes, I noticed that too. It's fairly obvious that they're alluding to the Three Wise Men of the New Testament, making me think that GOWIII sets in place the transition from Greek Mythology to Christianity.

The beard thing was pretty obvious as well, however. I'm surprised it wasn't brought up here before. It's not like it's some random configuration of facial hai that somewhat resembles a cross, it's a perfect shape of a cross that's too hard not to notice.
