God of War 2 Summit of Sacrifice Walkthrough

So Zeus finally has Kratos and is ready for a one on one battle to settle this affair. But, Zeus calls in his harem of sirens to work the fight for him. Only occasionally does Zeus perform a fist pound and even then it is a half assed attack. The most important tip for this fight is to learn how to avoid that earthquake attack. Pay attention to him in the background and practice the timing of when to jump so that you are in the air when the ground is shaking.

Zeus

PART I:

The way to attack Zeus is to get the sirens to scream. Use your big magics like Atlas Quake or Cronos's Rage to affect all the sirens at one time. When a siren dies, she gives up magic so don't worry about using it up too much.
Attack the Sirens enough so that they get an "O." Then, give them the creapy hug and have them scream.
Zeus will be affected by this scream and will try to punch Kratos.
Before zeus does punch, go to the farthest edge of the circle and jump as he is rearing back. Doing this will avoid the shockwave.
When his punch lands, his hand will rest there for a moment. Attack it.
Watch for him to raise both arms up like "I don't know" and then oo a little laugh. The moment you hear the laugh, double jump and then fly your way back to the ground to avoid the earthquake.
After enough hits of this, he will get that "O" over his hand and press it to get to the next part.

PART II

To make this easy, keep casting Cronos's rage or Atlas magic attacks and strike him with the sword while he is occupied by the magic. I beat him right way and got an attack chain of 250+.

Otherwise:

Play defensively. Roll away from his attacks and then when he is done with his combo, attack him
Use your Area magic quite liberally here because this is the hardest phase
Block his lightning Attack

PART III

Zeus picks Kratos up and rips the sword right from his hand.
Play this fight like you would Mike Tyson's punch out. Meaning, let him swing two or three times, dodge both attacks, and then when he is stunned, attack him two or three times.
When Zeus gets the "O" over his head, grab him. The on-screen prompt is easy: just start tapping O.

Zeus is stabbed through the gut in a stomach for a stomach replay of the story's beginning. He is then thrown across the area and comes to rest under an excellent example of post and lintel construction. Run over to the shinning spot and pick up a column and hit him in the back of the head with it. You know, this area would make a pretty good place for a death-metal concert.

Padding, I call padding. You will have to repeat the previous two parts of this battle.

PART IV:

Attack him with the sword like in part II
Again, use the magic/attack combo here to make it easier
I ran out of magic and used my Rage of the Titans here, it helped

PART V:

He will again steal the sword from you.
Still fight like it is Mike Tyson's Punch out
The on-screen prompts are again to tap O.

When he is thrown for a second time, run over and hit the shiny thing to drop
a whole lintel on his head. Zeus jumps down and then he comes back big. He
shocks the ground so get ready to tap on O.

Kratos turns his back on Zeus and wants to totally bury the hatchet (or blade
in this instance.) Zeus wants to too. Only he wants to bury it in Kratos's
Carotid Artery. Zeus holds the blade above his head and says "your torment is
just beginning." He is right because here comes one of the most painful
button pressing sequence in the whole game. Plus, if you fail the button push
sequence, you will have to watch the whole cut scene again.

Here are some tips to get you through this.

There will be five button pushes
Then there will be a tap O sequence towards the end
