the hook challenges are *** ridic. no way im gonna beat them.

Practice makes perfect.  Trust me some of them are quite frustrating, particularly the later challenge rooms.  There are some videos on youtube that could possibly help you out. 

its ALL about attempts, the more attempts you get, the fastest youd make it...just try and try, am gonna try to get em

Yeah it´s sick! I can´t beleive myself that I spent as much time as I did completing the challenges. Some of them took me several hundred tries to nail them. But the feeling when I finally got the achievement is almost worth it. Bragging rights fo sho. ;)

I find them Easy @.@ I have done it on both my accounts and many of my real live friends accounts too. I guess i just rock :P

I agree, the hook gameplay is sooo stupid!!! someone in 1983 messed up the diagonals directions, and in 2008, they found it cool to mix it with the UNPLAYABLE 360' directionnal cross!!!

The challenges often bring me back to the game.  If you're having trouble with them, you can always try youtube.  Here's the forum on Xbox.com: link.

I think they're great, and being about 30 challenges into it I can already tell you personally I'm not going to be able to do them all.  Some of them you just have to keep doing it and as mentioned above YouTube helps and it's really not a big deal or "cheating" to see how they're done properly.

It reminds me a lot of various other time trials and whatnot (MGS VR Missions anyone?) so that's what I like about it.

Yea I am not very good at the challenges but I tend to come back to them now and again. Its all about timing really and trail and error unfortunately.

frustration factor is way up there on this game.  I'm having a hell of a time with the 1st yaschi / docks level weapon upgrade / the boss on lvl 11

I may need to check my blood pressure and tether the controller to my arm so I don't throw it at the tv! 

This thing is so frustrating that I didn't even make the 1st level yet. I've tried about 20 times and when I get to the Beetle (I think), it kills me one life after the other. And lets START OVER!

There should be a Save. But the morons didn't think of that. Or just did it on purpose?

It such a nice looking game! What a waste... I've heard that the new 3D version coming is as frustrating. So I guess they didn't learn anything.

If it wasn't for the missing save option, I wouldn't even be writing this.

The game does have Check points But I guess you don't have the Skill to make it through the game

Was there an update to the game to give you unlimited lives?  I thought I heard someone saying the PS3 version was getting that update.

No one mentioned skill yet in the thread. Did you get to Level 4 by insulting people here & there? I think it's more of a patience thing, troll.

I'm adding Assault Heroes that falls in the same category.

Actually the Game does indeed require a lot of Skill and it is Obvious you lack such and thing, Now I am not a "troll" I am actually well know through out all of the BC Boards for helping and giving out information and advice to other players and I call things as I see them like this Lack of skill for instance

beat  Bionic Commando and you get infinite lives on Rearmed, I beat the new one first, then got Rearmed, so thats why I have infinite lives, my brother did'nt play the new Bionic Commando so he only gets 3 lives to begin with
