    if it does it will based off the "awww" factor and visuals.....because 2 was just a better experiance as far as puzzles and story.....there were certain things in 3 I didn't really like....makin Hera seem like a housewife goin through midlife crisis....not fighting the third gorgon sister stheno....since u killed apollo it would have made sense to have artemis as a boss fight
