Is the Greek god Ares good?

No, he was so bloodthirsty that even his own family (the Olympic gods) disliked him.

In the Illiad, Ares joined the Trojans on the battlefield. With Athena's help the Greek hero Diomedes killed Ares with a javelin. Ares immediately returned to Mount Olympus, and was forbidden to return to the battlefield by Zeus who admonished him for his bloodthirstiness.

Ares also apparently had a vast patchwork quilt made from the skins of the people he had killed. So not very good, no.
