    Finally passed the Mission 9 boss.

    I restarted the level (so much easier the second time!), in the area just before the boss room there is a mech in a large container, as above posters say. Grab that, as well as the gatling gun and rocket launcher nearby.
    Same strategy as usual, except this mech has good armour, was able to get a good chunk of it's health down before awapping to another mech in the room and continuing.

      Sweet. I am now a worm hunter. That took a while but god do I like getting achievement points for things like that!

        I got the worm hunter achievement this morning...You really can't tell if you've defeated it to be honest. It goes away for a little while then comes back, I actually realised I killed it twice, then the third time thought "Bollocks, lets see if that did kill it when the music stopped. I'll finish the level and see what happens"...

          Did the huge orange thing exploding out of its side and the massive dollop of energy that it leaves behind not give it away?

            I know you're being sarcastic but no, it really didn't. It's not like you can stand still and observe the boss at any point. I thought the point was taking out each week spot on the sides of it, which I DIDN'T do...managed to get one spot on each side go red, each time it dropped the energy.

            The second time I didn't even get more than one "weak point" out, but it did the big dollop of energy again. Why make it come back so quickly anyway, if it's dead, it's dead.

              For anyone stuck on Mission 11...

              It will probably be annoying the f**k out of you I was able to finish him off fairly fast by just waiting for the opportunity to get close whilst all the while holding my right/left trigger (charge) and then release when close to unleash big laser sword type attack. Back off and shoot them bombs with X button. I found you could charge right/left trigger along with B button for double spinning laser sword attack. But I never used that to be honest.

              Good luck

                  Did he die when his energy got to zero, or is there something you need to do to finish him off? I had to give up or else the pad was going through the TV, I'll give it another bash tomorrow.

                    No, once you finally down him, he's down for good. Thanks goodness. Doing that on Extreme mode will probably make one eat their own **** through insanity.

                      Well that's just dandy, I kick his ass and a bug ruins it for me!

                        What you mean?

                          I kicked his ass and he didn't die, I figured I had to do something else to finish him off, but if what you're saying is correct then something went wrong.

                            You know you've killed a boss as soon as their health bar has disappeared from the bottom of th screen. Well that's what happens for me anyway. Sounds like you;ve had a bit of a nightmare with this title lol.

                            Comment


                              Yeah, it just stayed on screen at zero and no matter what I hit him with he just kept going.

                                My two cents,

                                Just finished it




                                .......

                                More seriously though I've enjoyed this from beginning to end, Had no problems with the Controls, I mean you're not exactly going to be agile in a huge mech, and if I got sideswiped by a giant tenticle then there's do doubt it'd take me a couple of seconds to get back on my feet!

                                I've enjoyed this for what it is, a damn masterpiece of a 360 game........and just to backup Monkeywrench's problem i can confirm THERE IS A BUG ON THE LAST BOSS

                                I had about half energy left he had pretty much nothing.........Without spoiling it for anyone I finished him off, no energy left on him whatsoever and he carried on fighting........so hit him again, and again, and about 1 minute later he finished me off

                                Second time around, exactly same scenario, took his last bit of health and voila, end sequence.

                                So annoying bug aside this has deffo been one of the more enjoyable games i've played in a while.
