completed the game without any walkthroughs or any guide at all on normal difficulty. I knew it was going to be short so I had no problems with that. better a short game with all action rather than a long game but lots of backtracking and filler moments. Quality over quantity is way better than quantity over quality.

This game is not suitable for kids though.... got some partial nudity going on in the game and even a sex minigame. For someone who can slay monsters he certainly doesnt last long with two women. LOL!

Only one gripe with the whole game is one particular special move needs you to hold L + O and then pressing [] without letting go of L + O.

Gila! How you expect to pull off that move without bringing two fingers up on the thumbpad if you have small thumbs?

the third razor is the final one. I currently got as far as the first razor. DAMN HARD WEI! WTF! Seriously this part is worse than the final boss by a LONG SHOT!

But believe it or not the 4th challenge is said to be even worse.

start off with efreet but no O smashing. use L+/\ between medusa's head and the statue. L+[] for the last medusa head on each side. Same combo for big giant statue in the center twice and a L+[]. A single punch will settle the rest.

Completed the hades challenge series last night. Really too bad they cant include the lost levels. I guess they ran out of time for those.

I thought McKratos had axes as weapons? At least that's what shows on mine.

I think it takes bout 10 hours for me to play God Mode from fresh.. Me also having probs beating the minions..
But u'll get through them sooner or later..
My advice, to fight a few mob soldiers, try to bounce them in the air then catch/grab them using 'Circle' button many times until they die..
The other mob will not interfere u while u keep grabbing those bouncing soldiers.. Try it, its fun..


Indeed the O grab is very useful. This doesn't apply only to air grabs but even on the ground grabs. Doing a grab on a minion is such a powerful advantage that even bosses will stop any of their attacks (like the king of persia's flaming sword strike). I exploited that to help me win the god mode boss fight.

oh and about the tips for hades challenge 4 need to use the air L+[] strike for the last two medusa's head at each side of the arena. This goes as well for the huge statue at the front. Two air L+[] and one ground L+[] will settle the job pretty fast. I finished that one with around 1.2-1.5 seconds left.

god mode is seriously hard. The developers weren't kidding when they labeled the mode as "very hard". The mob's AI is seriously trying to make sure you don't get past them, using their abilities in combo with each other. The buggers even flank you when you're weakest. Sick man. I'd really like to see anyone who can finish it in 4 hours on their first try.

well if it's any help, the mindset you have to be in when you play god mode is something like this:


"Let's play a game of "don't touch me" while I try my best to damage as much as I can until you all die biggrin.gif "
