All Under Control
Gamerpoints: 20
Secure all Tactical Locations within one Cell stronghold, alone or with another Agent.
You will need to take over all three of the tactical locations within one Cell Stronghold. Once all three are taken over, the Agency will set up shop there and you will get the achievement.
Big Bang
Gamerpoints: 20
Oversee the deployment and successful detonation of a Beacon, alone or with another Agent.
This achievement you’ll get playing through the story. When you set off the first Beacon under the city, the achievement will pop.
Bomberman
Gamerpoints: 10
Create 30 explosions in 60 seconds.
The quickest and easiest way to grab this achievement is to find a place where there are a ton of barrels and other things that go boom around. Usually the Freak lairs and the Cell hideouts will have plenty scattered about. Use grenades to take out some while shooting others. A minute is plenty of time to nab 30 barrels.
Car Jump
Gamerpoints: 10
Leap from one fast moving vehicle to another.
For this achievement, it says to jump from one fast moving vehicle to another. What constitutes “fast” really isn’t known. As you can see from the video, the van wasn’t really hauling ass at all. I did this previous times before and the cars I leapt from and to were going much faster but the achievement never popped. Not sure what the deal is to tell you the truth.
Chopper Stomper
Gamerpoints: 10
Leap from an airborne Agency helicopter and using a Ground Strike, kill at least one enemy.
This is definitely one of the easier cheevos to be found in the game. Grab the chopper from Agency Island and head on over to a group of Freaks. Jump out – watching you don’t jump into the helicopter blades- and press B on your way down. As long as you land somewhat close to an enemy, you’ll get it.
City Glider
Gamerpoints: 10
Wingsuit glide through the airspace of all islands in Pacific City without touching down.
Take a chopper up as high as you can and hop out. Use the wingsuit and use the swoops – diving and rising – to keep your flight time longer. Head over each island on the map and grab your 10 points.
Closed Book
Gamerpoints: 20
