Reminder: This is how you play God of War

by Andrew Yoon { Nov 10th 2009 at 10:45PM }

Just in case your God-killing skills have rusted since the end of God of War II on PS2, QA Tester Stephen Peterson has a few tricks up his sleeve. While this video from the PlayStation.Blog is meant to illustrate how to achieve the "15 Min Fight Scene' Trophy, it provides general hints that will be useful throughout Kratos' adventure. Pay attention to the weapons he chooses, and the magic he deploys. You'll see that with these tactics, a 500 hit combo goes from "ludicrous" to "entirely possible."

Study this video like a textbook -- God of War Collection is only days away, and you won't want to miss out on two Platinum Trophies, right?

Wow...that 500 combo really doesn't seem that hard anymore. Just need to spam the electric attack.

Darkfocus @ Nov 10th 2009 11:06PM

I know I could never do it before but its apparently very easy as seen in this video.

Darkfocus @ Nov 10th 2009 11:05PM

I'm still curious why a trophy that requires something be done within 10 minutes is called 15 Min Fight Scene.

Georgia Gator @ Nov 11th 2009 9:06AM

You asked why the trophy is called 15-minute fight scene. I provide an answer.

When they posted on the PSBlog a few weeks back, they stated the reason for its naming:

"Something very similar happened when we started testing the God of War II trophy “15 Min Fight Scene.” The fight outside the Loom Chamber is one of the more polarizing moments in the game. A lot of people really enjoyed the long marathon battle, while other’s thought it was maybe too tough of a challenge. This fun vs. frustration became even clearer when the office stopped working on God of War III one afternoon to get together and watch as team member after team member tried to get through the fight in record time."

I hope this answers it. You can view the original source material at the following link: http://blog.us.playstation.com/2009/10/god-of-war-collection-ships-november-17th-plan-your-trophy-hunt-now/

that still doesn't answer why a trophy named 15 minutes, needs to be done in under 10 minutes.

linebeginstoblur @ Nov 11th 2009 9:43AM

You explained to me why the trophy is called 15-minute fight scene. You provided an answer. You didn't provide THE answer. I asked, as Space pointed out, that I'm curious why it is called 15 when it requirements at most 10 minutes.

When they posted on the PS.Blog a few weeks back, they did not state the reason for the discrepancy between the name and the actual requirement.

So no, that did not answer it. You can view the original source material and realize that it does not reference my original inquiry. If you do find a source with this information, first make sure that it honestly does answer my question, and then, if it does, you can feel free to post the information without using language to make me feel like I don't know how to use Google.
