Forums - Sony - GoW collection Trophies easier than expected

I'm a little disappointed by the Gow Collection Trophies.

They are incredibly easy, just take a look:

God of War I

http://www.ps3trophies.org/forum/god-war-collection-god-war/30095-god-war-trophy-guide.html

The only difficult ones on there are:

You Got the Touch! Gold Trophy Climbed the Spiked Column in Hades without taking damage
This isn't as horrible as everyone assumed it would be. In The Path of Hades, after defeating a bunch of Minotaurs, you will come to a rotating column with blades sticking out of it. You need to get to the top without hitting any of the blades. Luckily, if you do hit one of them, you can just throw yourself off a cliff and try again. You only need to get to the top of the first column to get this trophy. That way, you can tear your hair out on the next column without having to worry about the trophy.

I'll Take the Physical Challange Gold Trophy Complete the Challenge of the Gods
To get this trophy, you will need to complete all 10 stages in the Challenge of the Gods. You'll find the Challenge under Treasures on the main menu. Here are videos of all 10 stages; some of them are quite difficult. Credit goes to tk848

Speed of Jason McDonald Gold Trophy Beat the game in under 5 hours on any Difficulty
This is definitely the hardest trophy in the game, but with the right strategy, you can do it with time to spare. Play on easy, skip all the cutscenes, and skip any chests or enemies that aren't absolutely necessary. I'll try to get some time checkpoints so you know if you're on the right track.

Thanks to SinRG for the following tips:
- Cutscenes cannot be skipped, but they do not add to the time
- Pausing the game will pause the timer, going into the upgrade screen, however, will not
- If you mess up, restart from the last checkpoint and the time will reset back to where it was before
- Avoid all unnecessary fights, only fight when you have to
- The fastest way to move in the game is do roll with the RIGHT STICK then immediately press R1 (Hermes Rush). This requires one upgrade into your blades first.

As for checkpoints, these are all I can remember:

- Defeated the Hydra by 13:xx
- Reached Pandora's Bridge by 1:03:xx
- Completed all 3 challanges by 2:10:xx
- Completed Hades by 2:20:xx
- Beat the game by 2:46:xx

 

Now, here's GoW II

http://www.ps3trophies.org/game/god-of-war-collection-god-of-war-ii/trophies/

You Know the Germans Make Good Stuff... Gold Trophy
Collect all Uber Chests
15 Min Fight Scene Gold Trophy
Battle your way to the Loom Chamber in under 10 minutes
Bleeding Thumbs Gold Trophy
Beat the Challenge of the Titans

 

Not really all that difficult.

Two easy platinums and two really amazing games + GoW III e3 demo for 40$. Great value, but kinda disappointing trophy dificulty.

Let me know when u have platinum



 

but these are my easiest platinums by far.

Plus, the games are great, who cares if you played them before. They are in full HD and have added content now.

It's two platinums. One for each game. I just got the game 2 days ago and was just finishing up uncharted 2 platinum.

I have been playing gow for about 1-2 hours a night, and have most of the trophies and I'm near the end of the game. I figure it will take about 10 more (at most, if it takes me 5 hours to complete the challenge of olympus) hours to platinum gow, and maybe 15 hours for gow II.

Compare this to Fallout 3 which took about 32 hours.

Oh, I was looking at some of the videos in the bonus section and I thought some were new, but I checked online and they're old.



Do you have to beat GoW2 on Titan?



nope, on any difficulty

besides, titan isn't that bad.



Titan is brutal.

The corridor before fighting Clotho is the most stupidly frustrating part in the entire series on Titan. I died about twelve times there and then never went back.
