PrinceWatercress plays Ratchet and Clank: Going Commando - Part 22 of 54

In this entry, we spend some time taking on some challenges in the Feltzin System as well as on Barlow.

First | Previous | Next | End

2:39 - Challenge 4 in the Feltzin System is a race. You'll get a ton of bolts if you win, but if you go through the entire race without missing a ring, you'll get a Platinum Bolt at the end.

7:19 - Challenge 2 at the hoverbike races in Barlow is the Intermediate Circuit. I make this look easier than it is. It's not much different from Challenge 1.

10:55 - Challenge 3 at the Barlow races is the Vokovar Circuit. This time, the caves are open, and you can use the caves as a shortcut to save some time. There will be a shortcut to the right all of a sudden, and if you can take it and still hit the boost after you enter, you can reach a time of under 2:10.

13:21 - The winning run. Completing any of the races in under 2:10 will net you a Skill Point.

Skill Points:

Speed Demon: Get a time of 2:10 in the hoverbike race in Dobbo.
