I did this this morning and as I have a fear of heights it really got to me... lol

Near the top when I had to jump from one tower to the next I nearly pooped myself and needed to go have a quick rest.

Did it though, stop laughing...

lol i did that exact same thing! i can't get my driving skill up, i'm too keen to run over all those pedestrians. i need to be a bit more careful where i chuck my grenades too...

The game is great fun co-op, loving it!

Such a shame the game is so short.

This game has me hooked. One of the best on the 360 imo. Graphics are stunning as well! The sense of scale and height.

I Know I am going to share McDingles

pain on the orb hunting. I am on 300 and something agility orbs and 124 special orbs (only really just started on the Volk area)

Then I will be going through the maps looking for the unique stunts and then doing all the sodding races.

I guess as I'm doing all these things I will naturally be killing enemy bosses. However I can see all sandbox style games becoming my "GS Whoring" games I was quite bad for it in Dead Rising, only returning it to get another game.

I find the vehicle races stupidly hard, the handling of the cars is awful, does it improve when you level up? I'm currently on 2 stars.

yeah absolutely. although i thought level 2 was OK. level 3 is fair bit better...

Run gangs over to get your skills up and try a few stunts. It's not too bad once you're at 4-star but the car-control is aweful when you start off in the game.

Managed to increase my driving skill from 1 star to 4 in just a few hours by running over a bunch of enemies. Just scaled the agency tower with 3 star agility, quite difficult, not very forgiving.

Did you manage to get to the center spire? I just can't seem to quite reach high enough to get the orb.

I had to be 4* to get that secret one at the top

Tony Williams · 26 Feb 2007 at 20:09

Got mine at 3* took about 30 minutes was worth it when I jumped.

Getting to the top can be done in 3*, takes about 3mins - but getting the orb i couldnt at 3*

Probberly just felt longer.

Andybtsn · 26 Feb 2007 at 20:15

Bet I was the only one to get this achievment:

Jump from the top of the Agency Tower and land in the water below

Before this one:

Make your way to the top of the Agency Tower

Popping car tires is so funny when you do it on the highway, I managed to cause a huge pile up

Andybtsn · 27 Feb 2007 at 12:08

Once i have killed the last Kingpin are there no bad guys on the street?

Kinda sucks if I want to get my achievments!

monkeyspank · 27 Feb 2007 at 12:13

When you finish all the missions you get to choose to roam the city with crimes on or crimes off.... so with or without bad guys, your choice.
