One of the reasons PlayStation 3 owners are looking forward to the "remastered" re-release of the God of War Collection is the trophy hunting they'll finally get to do.
Sony today unveiled both trophy lists, giving fans a couple weeks to prepare before its Blu-ray release on November 17. A post on Sony's official blog gives details on a bit of the background on the series' development, and how it translated into humorous trophy ideas for the collection.
One of the trophies that I was really happy to finally be able get out there was "Speed of Jason McDonald." At the end of making God of War, the combat designers were doing speed runs of the game, and soon enough, friendly wagers started springing up around the office to see who could post the best time. Jason McDonald, currently a Sr. Combat Designer on God of War III, blew them all away. He still has, a couple God of War games later, the two dollars in winnings tapped proudly to his computer monitor.
Below are the trophies for the first God of War, page two has the trophies for the sequel.
