I just got this game for my Xbox from ToysRuS the other day for $10. It looks and plays great, but I am stuck on the first level and don’t seem to be able to make forward progress. I’ve only beaten like 4 challenges.
One in particular is really stumping me. I’m supposed to grab 12 pink elephants in a single “run”. I can’t figure out what the difference between a “run” and a “combo” is. There is a timer of like 8 seconds or so on the top of the screen and I can’t even come close to getting all 12 elephants in 8 seconds.
Anyone know how to do this?
BTW, for a 2 year old game it looks great when played in 720P on my HDTV.
Also, why can I not reassign the buttons on this game? That really pisses me off.
A single run is the same as a single combo. Also, as long you still have a combo going, the time is not “up”. So what you need to do is start the combo within that eight seconds and then keep it up until you get all 12 elephants. I think you also need to land the combo at the end for it to count.
If I recall correctly there’s a bunch of stuff you can grind to keep the combo going.
Also, do a lot of … :smack: :smack: :smack: …what’s it called when you press up and down and they just keep going even with nothing to grind on?
Like grinding but on flat land?
Anywho, that’s good for getting you to your next jump or grind spot without ending the trick.
I’ve found the walkthroughs on gamefaqs.com to be useful for most of the trickier missions.
First, grind as much as possible, this is a much faster method of travel, allowing you to finish it off in the 8 seconds given. Second, revert->manual is a critical skill to keep combos going (after coming down off of a half pipe, revert, then immediately hit up->down or down->up to start the manual without breaking the combo). There’s also a point in the middle of the run where you have to do a spine transfer.
