The God of War® III game finds Kratos raining carnage and destruction upon the Gods who have betrayed him and the entire Ancient Greek world. Armed with his deadly double-chained blades, Kratos will take on mythology’s darkest creatures while solving intricate puzzles on his merciless quest to destroy Olympus and the mighty Zeus himself.
Mysterious Website for Platinum Spartans
If you get the Platinum Trophy in God of War III you'll be directed to a mysterious website featuring only a compass and falling rain...
Extra Red Orbs
When fighting those sword-wielding Olympian skeletons, kill some so that there about ten left and position Kratos with his back to to a wall. Equip the Claws of Hades (which need to be at level 2 or higher). Repeatedly lash out with the Soul Rip (L1 + CIRCLE) and you'll get hundreds, even over a thousand hits on just a few enemies. The Soul Rip attack deals very little damage. On hard modes you can probably increase the hit count further and be rewarded with more red orbs. Note: If you don't back against a wall you'll have to move towards enemies a bit after each attack.

Best and Most Useful Costumes During Speed Run
- (Difficulties) These only address your Armor % (collisions are tied to this *lower = higher*), Power % and aggressiveness of foes. Costumes control these factors *save aggressiveness* and MP/HP/EXP orb % *doesn't affect EXP bonuses in descriptors*.
- (Costumes) Bubbles and Chef of War are out of the running. Default is what it is.
- Ares Armor is 200% in all fields. *100%s on Magic, but Easy will alter this* On Easy, your power and armor will be even greater *2x*. Nevermind RotG which doubles power and increases defense while adding 'tank' properties.
- Tycoonius will drop your Armor substantially, but Easy would balance this out (while your collisions get stronger). It increases power to 200% (like with Ares Armor) and EXP to 400%. As such, EXP chests aren't really much of a concern. Hits taken will regenerate well enough so the threat of death isn't too great even with the Armor as such.
- For these two cases, you should consider focusing on direct assaults to overpower foes. Spells are NOT tied to Attack % so they won't see a bonus. The Blades and Artemis will however. RotG will just make them that much stronger. With a certain exploit, you can get regenerating magic to nearly match what another attire offers.
- Dairy B*st*rd (because this place actually thinks that's a 'naughty' word) obviously grants Infinite MP. It also gives 200% HP and EXP orb worth like Ares Armor. It has default (100%) Armor and halved Power (balanced out by 'Easy'). The approach here is brainless. Just whore PR (preferably lvl2+). When you get AoH, use that too. Mix the two together and the challenge of a forced fight slips away.
- Skips can be helpful at cutting down on time. If you're interested in learning of some of the less difficult cases, I'd be happy to teach you. The point of this run is merely getting the trophy I take it? Do you have any reservations about being a tad more cheap than initially planned?
- It's easier to pull off skips with regenerating or Infinite MP. RotG with Athena's Blessing (lvl5 Blades) can mimic this, but the limits are readily observed.
- ~Your call. With just speed as a concern (not leveling or other 'trophies'), your current rate should be fast enough.
- NOTE: If you're talking about the runs by satvara and tyrhhjy, I know those fellows. I was part of the speedrunning (aid) scene. AKheon's Glitch FAQ archives much of their learnings. For GoW1, GoWII and CoO. GoWIII will be no different. We require runners to advance times in CoO and GoWII (long overdue). 54 minutes in GoW1 is about as good as it gets. Skipping the cinematics is possible with another exploit/glitch. There's a more extreme version but we don't fancy running around with a black screen *not good for recording*. Look up YT user "tyrhhjy" to see his performance. He does us a great service with his showing. That's years of tactics, glitches, etc. being put to work in a masterful performance. Shame he, like me, lacks good recording equipment.
1000 Hit Combo Trophy
Here is the easiest way of getting the 1000 hit combo trophy. Once you defeat Hades you will get the 'Claw of Hades', now in an area where theres alot of enemies simply hold L1 and keep mashing O to rip out their souls...just keep doing it repeatdely and watch the combo increase.
God of War III Fear Kratos Costume
Gameplay using the 'Fear Kratos' costume. This was unlocked after completing the game. With this costume you inflict 4x more damage but also take 4x damage aswell. The real-time cut scenes remain with Fear Kratos but others are with normal Kratos. Sadly this is the only unlockable costume, all the others are DLC only...by pre-ordering from certain retailers. The 'Dominus' costume is exclusive to the 'Ultimate God Edition'
