God of War III

I don't know how you did it. Maybe you have a higher average combo counter? I tend to use power attacks and quick in/out movements so I never really build a high combo. I tried to use the Nemesis Whip's insane aerial combos to build it later in the game but I still didn't have enough...there's no way to really "farm" EXP is there? Also, the cheat code that turns off Trophies but gives you 9x red orbs...what if I use that, turn it off, then upgrade my weapons? Would that work I wonder?

Probably not. Dont forget to find hidden chests with Helios' head. There are areas that sparkle and if you shine his head on it, a chest will appear. After you collect all the horns, feathers, and eyes....those chests now become exp orb chests, since you dont need anymore of those items. Thats all i can say...check everywhere for chests. I dont really think i do that many combos. Maybe i do and dont know it.
 
I forgot to mention that the price of the Ultimate Edition went down to $80 @ Gamestop today. I was actually shocked to see it on my list of prices to change.

Dont know how long, but they wont be too easy to find from here on out. FYI
 
Where are you all getting these challenges? I got 7, is there more? Wtf? I only clocked the game once.

You get an extra set of "Challenge of Exile" for forking out the cash for the Ultimate Edition.

Is there a new game+ option I'm not seeing? When I started a new game on normal with the Dominus costume I didn't have any of my stuff from before...maybe I had to get past the intro? I was just checking out the costume. Or are there more chests than there are upgrades? I shone my light freaking everywhere. Though I did miss one minotaur horn.
 
Chief, if you bought the Collectors Edition, it should come with the DLC voucher. Use it and you will get new costumes and the new Challenge of Exile.

There isnt normally, usually a new game just allows costumes and godly possessions to be used. But there is a trick where you can start a game you already beat, with all the weapons. This is what you do.

1. Go to the combat arena, and set it to the difficulty you want to play on, one you already beat.
2. Die 5 times until it asks you if you want to play on easy difficulty, select no. This should bring you to the main menu.
3. Start a new game using the same difficulty you set the combat arena on.

This should allow you to start with all 4 weapons. I tested this out and it works. However it doesnt work if you try to do it on a difficulty you didnt beat yet. Im not sure if this disables trophies, keeps the weapons maxed out, or if you lose the weapons after the first boss. I only tested this out for a short time.
 
The game was amazing, I went to my friend's house who has a PS3 and I played it through in one night.

With that said, I'm glad I didn't buy a PS3. God of War III was the only PS3-exclusive game that I thought (still think) looks any good, and I still went with the 360. Had I got a PS3, I would have been severely disappointed since I'd miss out on my other favorite series that are still carrying on, whereas I beat God of War III overnight.
 
The fun is at Chaos Mode. That should go through a couple days and some controllers.

You people are right though. After my second playthrough, I haven't touched the game since. I'll have to set new challenges (Chaos + No upgrades).

I sold my PSP, so I can't play Ghost of Sparta when it comes out. I'll still buy it though.
