Dammit all! I play through God of War on Hero difficulty (working my way up to God mode)....I play through the whole bloody thing BRILLIANTLY right up until the last blood match before Pandora's box, y'know the one with the moving floors, death wheels, harpies and archers. I enter the room at half health and zero magic and I realize immediately that I've brought a banana to a bazooka fight and there is NOTHING around to replenish my strength.
I think I tried that battle 40 times and I still couldn't beat it. The game offered to switch me into easy mode...but I couldn't just give up like that. Even with God of War's built in "oh, couldn't beat it? here's a little health" mechanics.
So I broke, I switched into easy mode and immediately liquefied my opponents. Pandora's box wasn't supposed to feel like a gimme! What a hollow victory. And to make matters worse NOW I can't switch back to Hero mode! I spent the rest of the game with The Sword of Artemis out, cleaving my way through wave after wave of weak monsters. It was not uncommon for one swing of the blade to yield 6 kills! Dumbass zombie archers shouldn't stand so close together!
Anyways, I'm pissed because I played the bloody game through on Hero, screwed up ONE fight and now it counts it as if I beat it on EASY... Oh well....God mode next time and for the love of god, DO NOT ENTER THE ARCHITECT'S TOMB WITHOUT FULL HEALTH AND MAGIC.
back to work!
