Btw did something come up that you couldn't make a new vid?

[Seems like this was a backup for a "just in case" moment]

This post was a reply to a request in the comments of GTAIV. While I'm sure hardcore users are aware of other places to get this info, this specific feature is geared toward people who may not be aware of other avenues of information.

Also, I am insanely sick so today was a good day to do this!

We'll return with a regular P>L video next week!

Well get better then!

And I hope the person who made the request view the post and the ridiculously useful pigeon guide!

Do you have an active list of requests?

I tried to focus on more recent titles, but you're right. There are a ton of things to collect in Crackdown.

Yes, tracking down all those agility orbs was horrible. I HAD to do it though!

The intel is COD isn't that bad, and the briefcases aren't too hard to find in AO2.

I'll have to bookmark this for the Condemned walkthrough, I need to get those sweet ch33v0z!

Try Crackdown, over 850 orbs to collect, many cleverly hidden...

Crackdown is much worse. Luckily this guide helps...A LOT: http://picasaweb.google.com/frodekn/HiddenOrbs

@DjDATZ:

Agreed, that site is HUGE for the hidden orbs.

I wish there were a similar one for the agility orbs. It'd be more insane, considering there are 500 of them, but I have less than 5 left and I have NO idea where they are. X(

@cyberknight if i still owned crackdown AND you could see other's orbs, i'd surely help you find them...unfortunately...i can't see the ones you're missing.

Assassin's Creed actually has 420 flags and 40 templars to find.

I'm currently getting all the flags/templars in Assassin's Creed and I'm finding this site extremely helpful:

Honestly, I'm a sucker for these ones. :(

I've gotten the achievements in question in 4 out of the 5 games listed. lol Then again, I always use a guide for these, and I try my best not to collect them when i know of them.

Have all the flags, templars and high points in AC. (Btw, the high points weren't that much of a bitch to get cuz they were always marked off on your map...I think you wanted to mention the Templars...)

I have all the pigeons in GTA IV, those were a bitch to get, cuz after just about each one, you had to run away from the cops. GRRR.

I have all the intel in COD4 and I have all the briefcases in Army of Two (what a dreadful game that was...).

You did miss 3 big ones that instantly come to mind... Burnout Paradise (Billboards, Jumps and Smashes), Crackdown (Hidden Orbs, Agility Orbs and the Cars) and Superman Returns (Kittens).

Of course, finding the guides makes these achievements INSANELY easier to get.

Enjoy!

Oh, and yes, I LOVE my sandbox games. It's my second favorite genre, racing being my first.

I got screwed by COD because I messed around with one of the cheats WITHOUT saving. I guess the first time you enable a cheat it shuts down the whole achievements system...

All I had left in that game was the intel and the Mile High Club achievements...

Well, the intel ch33v0z shouldn't take your more than an hour to get. So you could just erase your save file, and play through on recruit.

Yeah, I tried that but it didn't work. Even after formatting my HD it still somehow knew what levels I've beaten and stuff.

I recently had to use a guide for the collect-a-thon in penny arcade adventures... I was pretty ashamed of myself.
