God of War - Swimming through Challenge of Hades part 1.

This game doesn't know which area is "water" and which "air" - it only knows where is the water surface and how Kratos reacts when he touches it. If you touch the water's surface and then leave the intended, enclosed area, the game keeps you happily swimming until you touch the water's surface again - giving all local common sense a welcome shore leave. It's a win-win situation, really!

I've been unable to acquire "swimmingness" through the water pool where you enter CoH or the pool where the Hades statue is. Unexpectedly, this pathetic little drool of an ornative bathtub became the answer! Hopefully a better way is found, since this takes forever to set up.

At the beginning of the challenge your options are very limited. IMO it's the best if you acquire "swimmingness" only after you've opened up the room with the deadly rolling lava balls. In this video you can see most of the dead ends awaiting Kratos from the first section of the place.

The best bits are in the part 2.

how many cheats did you use?

[AKheon]

None. Both the infinite magic costume and the glitch are a natural part of the game.

[AKheon]

Finish Challenge of Gods to unlock special costumes.

[XimenaConstanza]

What? How? O___O and why is Kratos dressed like that!

[AKheon]

It's a special costume which allows him to have infinite magic.

[SolidLittle]

It must be really tiring to get to the water. But it's worth it cuz swing through the game's evironments is priceless.
