God of War easter egg hidden in Heavenly Sword

by Andrew Yoon { Sep 16th 2007 at 2:30PM }

Members of the PS3 Forums have found an interesting easter egg in Heavenly Sword. Kratos' sword and armor from God of War can be found somewhere in the depths of the armory during Kai's mission. Now, that begs the question: who would win in a fight: Kratos or Nariko? (We're siding with the tortured Greek here.)

I'm not sure... after playing through, I think it'd be quite the contest, ending with Nariko refusing to get in on Kratos's 3-way thing, and snapping his neck, but what do I know...

Titty Pink @ Sep 16th 2007 2:42PM

Yea, this one isn't even CLOSE! Kratos would whoop that trick! Whoop that trick (get em') Whoop that trick!!!

Hell, Dante' can get some too!!!

LIES!

Nariko's hair would somehow accidentally tangle his chains up and then she'd do some L1+triangle thing and aerial ownerize the spartan.

Steven Kreschollek @ Sep 16th 2007 3:32PM

Being that Kratos is a spartan, he'd probably kill her (as long as he has at least a puff of air left in his body).

Best case scenario is they fall in love and produce a kratos/nariko hybrid....

I would totally love to see a Heavenly Sword - God of War mashup... the possibilities are endless and i wouldnt care if the storyline didnt make any sense.

paul @ Sep 16th 2007 3:59PM

kratos + nariko = babies!
i think nariko would kick kratos' ass. especially if she had the powers she does at the end of the game.

sicklesdawg @ Sep 16th 2007 4:57PM

Nariko would win in bed :p

Titty Pink @ Sep 16th 2007 5:03PM

@7

Did you PLAY God of War 1? Kratos is KNOWN for layin the pipe to multiple bitches at a time. Like I said dude, not even close. How is Heavenly Sword anyway? Anyone played the final build?

Justin @ Sep 16th 2007 5:21PM

but there's plenty unlockables, and even a HELL MODE, so i'll be playing again

endzo @ Sep 16th 2007 5:40PM

sectionz @ Sep 16th 2007 6:28PM

i thought this was a hoax ... but its totally true!

halebound00 @ Sep 16th 2007 7:06PM

Hey, Nariko and Kratos did have a kid for all of you that didn't know. His name is CHUCK NORRIS!!!

mccomber @ Sep 16th 2007 9:45PM

As cool as that surprise was, the best culture nod was when Kai threatens to hit the guard's weak point for MASSIVE DAMAGE!

ryano @ Sep 16th 2007 11:17PM

Kratos has a jump button. soo... Kratos > Nariko!

platanero4life @ Sep 17th 2007 12:33AM

Kratos will win regardless. He uses magic..etc and has crazy strength. As well he was raised in war unlike nariko she never fought in a war except for when the emperor was after the sword which was only once. Kratos dont give a 5hit he will cut her head off with no regret. Throw the chain sword at her then use the arrows or even use the Army of hades (GoW1) :-D

platanero4life @ Sep 17th 2007 12:38AM

@6...she wont and she cant...she has the powers so what? kratos is the god of war bro seriously there is no way she can match up against him. he has unnatural strength...the power of the gods.....golden reflective armor (for those who played GoW2)...etc its impossible so wake up lil man...on top of that he has variety of weapons to choose frm.....army of hades will do the trick

Byron517 @ Sep 17th 2007 9:41AM

Fellas fellas fellas you forget to notice one small detail... KAI!! That bitch is crazy!! Nariko would be in heated battle with Kratos and just at the moment when Kratos is about to unleash in "TITAN MODE" Kai will unload like a barrage of Arrows worthy of the scene in 300 that blots out the sun and pwn his ass!! LMAO TWING TWANG BITCHES!!! LMAO She made the game I'm sorry!! Heavenly Sword Rocks causes of Kai's crazy antics! You gotta play it if you haven't already!! By the way HELL MODE IS ROUGH!! There's TON MORE ENEMIES!! Nariko FTW

Trev @ Sep 17th 2007 3:34PM

@8 It's about 7.5 hours of the best combat, voice acting, animations and writing I've ever seen in an action game (or any game for that matter). God of War 3's bar just got raised a lot higher. This is a MGS-level quality game (and took me about as long as any MGS to finish). Assuming you have a ps3 because you're here, you should be out buying it.

jadedcritic @ Sep 17th 2007 4:33PM

I can see arguments both ways. Nariko is clearly more agile and skilled, except her hair's completely unbelievable. If ever there was someone who needed a haircut. Kratos on the other hand, was so pissed, he KILLS GODS. It's true that Nariko is actually kind of hot - and most guys are idiots when it comes to hit women. Usually that leads to all sorts of underestimating what she's capable of. But I don't think it would in this case. Kratos is too pissed, I can remember scenes in the GoW movies where he leaves topless women in bed because...well, he's Kratos.

I like Nariko, I do, but I gotta give the bet to the K man. I think she'd fight well and bravely, but K would eventually overpower her.

Mc187 @ Sep 17th 2007 5:47PM

Babies hehe.

Issy @ Sep 18th 2007 12:31AM

Psh, Nariko would just get her hair caught up in Kratos's chains. Then he'd go all angry god vengeance on her and rip her head off.

Emophia @ Sep 18th 2007 11:33AM

Dante > Kratos > Nariko

Not competition...

drifter @ Sep 21st 2007 9:10AM

@ 20.
Dude, are you seriuos with saying that this game is better than the god of war games? Get outta here!!
The graphics are awesome that i can say, but when in realtime they look almost the same as god of war's. The controls really lacked that visceral feeling that God of war gives you when mauling through hordes of enemies, it seems that Heavenly sword tried to burrow so many elements from GOW, but added their own twist that just didn't improve the fluidity of gameplay that GOW gives you. Superstyles my a$$!! Kratos is better at doing theme and they are easier to execute in GOW. The one good thing i liked were the counters though, maybe they can incorporate those into Kratos' arsenal. And please, the epic tale of Kratos runs laps arounds Nariko's.
no way God of war 3 has to look upon this game in order to get it right, maybe to avoid every one of the things it did perhaps, but not to emulate it. Rest assured that GOW3 will be a force to be reckon with and will be the must own title of it's genre for the PS3.
