I was recently playing God of War, and the game crashes at the desert level, no matter what I do.
This is a very well known issue for this game.
The game is getting stuck in the first seconds after you reach the desert level.
And is not from your console (Play station 2).
There is a graphic glitch that will cause your game to crash.
In order to fix this issue, you can try the following:
– restart your PS2.
– make sure that you save the game fast as you reach the desert, there is a save point there.
– check if the disk has any scratches and then clean it a bit.
– buy another copy of God of War.
Best solution is to play the game on other PlayStation 2 so you can pass this level or at least until you get to the next checkpoint where God of War should not crash, at least in the name of science, is worth to try.
You need your PS2 gamecard on that console so you can get the save.
– there are no cheats or codes so you can pass levels in God of War.
Best of luck, hopefully now you know what to do when the God of War game crashes at desert level.
