A newly emerged glitch, found by players of the platinum award selling game God of War III, will enable any player to start a new game, on any difficulty level, with all weapons available and maxed-out!
This means, obviously, that you will be able to start a new game with weapons that shouldn't be available until later in the game, such as the illustrious Nemean Cestus.
Furthermore, the weapon levels that you have recieved will remain fully maxed, even when you accuire them again later in the game. There is just one sole exception to this fact, and that is the Blade of Exile, which will be reset to the first level.
Trophies ARE still available to be earned when doing this glitch.
If you want to do the glitch (and lets face it, you probably do), then just follow these four simple instructions, ecxplained by its founder.

1.) Unlock Combat Arena, by beating the story once and then clearing the Challenges of Olympus mode.
2.) In the Combat Arena option screen, set Kratos’ Health to “Level 1” and difficulty to “Titan.” Set up the Enemies option with creatures that can kill you quickly and start the battle.
3.) In the Combat Arena, die five times in a row and the game will prompt you to switch to Easy mode. Select “No” to exit to the main menu.
4.) You should hear two different music tracks playing over each other. Furthermore, the "Maxed Out!" trophy will be unlocked if you didn’t already have it. From the main menu, select “New Game” and the difficulty of your choice to activate the glitch.
No words yet on when Santa Monica Studios, the publisher, will release a patch for the glitch or even if they will at all!
