God of War II help.!?

Question

Ok see in God Of War i sorta at the beginning of the game and i'm at the gates, but i have to stand on a button and wait for the gate to go up. and so i tried to run at it and summer salt at it and everything, is their a easier way to all this? THx

Answer 1

there's probably an object somewhere in the area that you have to push onto the button ....?

Answer 2

there is a dead body that the dragon thing dropped and you put that on the circle thing then you go to this movable crate thing and push it on the other circle

Answer 3

You drag the statue thing over to the button, and while the first gate is up, power kick it under the gate. You can then roll under the first gate if you do it right.  The second gate you can't roll under. That is what you need the statue thing for. You also need the statue thing to be able to jump up on a high ledge down one of the hallways, and open some chests.  You have to destroy the statue on top of it's platform before you can use it for climbing upon to jump higher with.
