I don't know, the first two phases were easy but the last part was tough for me. After trying for an hour, i gave up and defeated Ares in Easy mode. For me, Ares was the only badass boss in God of War series, followed by Persephone in Chains of Olympus.Ethan_Hunt said:The sword fight was easy, provided you knew the trick to tackle Ares. The Kratos clones were far more irritating that that.
