Killing Bosses

Hint by bnguyen on April 14, 2007  |  report this hint

Instead of try to pick off gangmembers surrounding the gang bosses, just run through and get to the boss and kill him. But if you get killed b4 killin the boss, you can find a shortcut to the boss without getting shot as much. It does not work for the Shai-gen top boss, but you shud run through the gangmembers, because they keep on respawning. If you are low on health, hide behind cover and shoot anybody who can see or shoot you and then just wait until ur health regenerates

use a friend

Hint by Need more food on June 10, 2007  |  report this hint

probably the easiest way to go through the game is to do it with a friend online. With a friend you will have somebody to back you up and if they are somebody with all of their stats being 4 stars this game is relatively easy because they are doing most of the work for you instead of you having to take out everybody.

this definetly makes the game easier

Easy Chain Banger achievement

Hint by Highsintellect on June 25, 2007  |  report this hint

On the Los Muertos island in the south is a pier that extends into the water (west of the Ferris wheel pier). On that pier is a circle of explosive barrels that curl around a building on the pier. Shoot it, then run north and as the pier allows you to, go east or west. Look to the west where the apartments are located. There is another set of barrels in a row. Shoot them. Repeat this process a few times to get the Chain Banger achievement.

Beat Down Bosses

Hint by drylndsurf on June 28, 2007  |  report this hint

Don't worry about trying to shoot the bosses with your guns (unless of course you have the homing rockets). It is much easier and more effective to beat them up with your melee attacks. Also that way they can't run away and regenerate their health.

Improve Your Agility

Hint by tuck179 on July 04, 2007  |  report this hint

Improving your agility is so much easier if you just look for the Agility Orbs. Instead of just jumping around and beating people while they are in the air. Just pick up the orbs and you will improve so much quicker.

Maxing Out Explosives

Hint by XxM4RKSM4NxX on August 07, 2007  |  report this hint

Make sure you have "The Block" as a safe house and any kind of rocket launcher (Regular, Heat Seaking, or Grenade Launcher). Stay at the top of the Safe House and juts look on all of the building tops. Gang Members are always respawning on all the different building tops close to The Block. It took me maybe 5 to 10 minutes to do this.

Tips

Hint by RV03 on August 09, 2007  |  report this hint

Double jump
Pick an object up above your head, then hold A to jump. When you are at the peak of your jump, press RT to throw the object. As you start to throw the object, hold A to jump again while throwing the object.

Running over gang members
If you are having trouble running over gang members with a car, try to drive very slowly at them. They are much less likely to try to dodge your car than when you are driving at a high speed.

Getting to the bosses with FULL health!

Hint by xbox_pimp on August 27, 2007  |  report this hint

I found that most of the bosses have rather wide open lairs. There are usally little hiding spots / dead end rooms that can allow your guy to recharge his life and/or shield. You can find these spots by kicking at double doors. You will notice that some of them will swing back at you if you roundhouse kick them. So back up just a bit and give it a kick... it should pop right open. Hide out in there until your health is full and do some more killing!! You can find these hiding spots at almost EVERY enemys hideout. I try to find a place like this closest to the main bosses so I can have as much health as possiable before kicking his butt! :)
