Complete the game once under any difficulty setting.

Hint: Easy kills
This strategy may be cheap, but it is incredibly easy and helpful when fighting multiple Minotaurs and other enemies. It requires at least a level 2 Blades Of Chaos. Knock them up with R1 + X. When in the air, release R1 and press Circle to grab its leg and hurl it back to the ground. The Minotaur will bounce back up, giving you multiple chances to repeat the throw. It should only take three or four throws to kill a Minotaur this way. As the minotaurs get stronger, you will need to knock them back up by pressing the Right Analog-stick towards it, then pressing X. Note: This requires a level 5 Blades Of Chaos. This strategy works on other monsters, such as Skeleton Soldiers, Skeleton Archers, and Gorgons. Using this strategy with Gorgons may require more practice than it would with the other monsters.

Infinite Experience
During Atlas's Quest in Pandoras Temple, you will come across a series of stone walls you can climb. Several armored legionarries will try to knock you off of the wall, kill all of them and climb to the top of the tallest ledge, a glitch harpy will begin to screech and blood {experience} will begin to shoot at you, it will last for as long as you stay in the area, cheap way to raise your weapons and magic spells to MAX. If you look close enough by one of the treasure chests you will see what looks like a holographic harpy flying in one spot.

God of War Easter Eggs
Secret Message 2

Destroy the Ares and Minotaur statues in the throne room at Olympus (use Lance of the Furies: L1+Circle). The secret message is a scrambled telephone number, just read it from left to right to figure it out... it should be pretty obvious. Call the number to get a pre-recorded message describing how cool you are (or aren't).

Hint: Harpy puzzle
When you are in the room filled with Harpies that keep coming out, kill them and notice that they are coming out of odd-looking holes. To stop them, use the shields of the statues in the room to block the entrance. The left statue goes in the right hole, and the right statue is for the left hole. Once all are blocked, kill the remaining Harpies. Go up the stairs to the ledge with the boards that fall off when you are going across. Do not worry if you fall off many times. The Harpies cannot get out. Also if the boards fall off, you will eventually find the boards that do not.

Glitch: Pandora's Temple: Unlimited experience
During Atlas's Quest in Pandora's Temple, you will encounter a series of stone walls which you can climb. Several armored legionnaires will try to knock you off of the wall. Kill all of them and climb to the top of the tallest ledge. A glitch Harpy will begin to screech, and blood (experience) will start to shoot at you. It will last for as long as you stay in the area. This is a cheap way to raise your weapons and magic spells to the maximum. If you look close enough by one of the treasure chests, you will see what looks like a holographic Harpy flying in one spot.

Hint: The Gates Of Athens: Easy orbs
Use the following trick to max out your Blades Of Chaos, Poseidon's Rage and Medusa's Gaze. After you reach Athens and you encounter the Oracle's image. climb up the stairs. You will see Ares for the first time. Save the game here. This will take a lot of time to do. Walk to your left down the stairs and enter the gate. Ares' fireball will break the gate, locking you inside. In order to get out you must lure a Minotaur to the switch and freeze him so you can slide out.
However, do not do that and do not leave this room. Kill as many Minotaurs as possible until no more of them give you orbs. Notice that no matter how many Minotaurs you kill, they will keep respawning. You can use as much magic as desired. As long as you are in that room, the magic box will keep refilling. Every time a Minotaur comes out, freeze him with Medusa's Gaze and break him. Every time you do this, you will receive fifteen orbs. If you run out of magic, refill with the box. If you run low on life, fight the Minotaur then do the mini-game to get some health back. Keep freezing then breaking them to get unlimited orbs.

Birth of the Beast
Complete the game once under any difficulty setting.

Hint: Pandora's Temple: Skull lock
When you first get to the rings of Pandora's Temple, run around the ring. There is a skull-shaped lock, with a skull-shaped hollow. To open the door you must go to the sarcophagus of the architect's son. Pull off the lid and jump on the body. Rapidly press RB2 and eventually the head will come off.

Glitch: Blade of Artemis disappears
When you have the blade out, go across a rope. When you jab you will use your old blades. When you get off, your old blades are shown in use. Just press L1 + R1.

Hint: Move faster
Press Right Analog-stick Forward to roll forward, then press R1 to execute a Hermes Rush shoulder charge before the roll ends. Repeat this to move faster.

Hint: Extra Magic Feathers
After receiving Poseidon's Trident and passing through the tunnel behind the statue, there are four Nyad daughters you can find while swimming underwater. Note: Some of them are hidden behind breakaway walls. Press Circle by any one of them to kiss them. Most of them will offer up a Magic Feather, while some may randomly leave you with nothing.

Hint: Easy red orbs
When you set off to find the two shields for the sculpture, go back into the room with the broken off stairs. Go up, get across the narrow boards, and pull the lever. The rope goes down and you can slide down it. Go across the rope where soldiers try to kill you.
Get to the other side, then get out the Blade of Artemis (L1 + R1).
Then, get the Hades shield and run up to the ledge where you can jump off to the rope going up. Many soldiers will appear. Use the Blade Of Artemis to kill them all. This will give you a lot of red orbs, and more time spared.

When you are fighting the first Ares at the end of the game, do not kill him. Just stab him once with his leg and let him hit you off.
You should get 1,000 orbs. Keep doing this for a lot of orbs and any weapon, or any of magic that you have not maxed out. You will need it against all the clones in the next battle.
When you get on the ship at the end of the first level after defeating the Boss Hydra, jump on the bed and press R2. Follow the commands as prompted on the screen. When the vase falls off the night stand you will get some orbs. The second time you do it, you will only get five orbs.
