Time Trials

[RaverBaby]

Has anyone managed to complete all the time trials on xbox 360 version? I'm still struggling!

[Rachie]

Well, I play on PS2 and I still have all the Greece levels to do. I can't be bothered though, cause the cheats don't look worth it. Or are they? :scratch:

All I know is that I better lay off those ones because it'll only end up in a truly angry me, possibly a smashed up TV screen and a very sore leg (I unfortunately have taken to hit myself hard if I miss a jump or something.)

No I'm not violent, I'm just a very frustrated person when it comes to time trials. :D

If the cheats are the same as on PC.... and you don't mind cheating to complete time trials, then do Peru levels, then the Atlantis levels. The other time trials are easier to do with those cheats enabled.

Wish I knew that, I did the Egypt levels with no cheats! Bloody nightmare! :mad2:

Do you know what the Greece cheats do?

From what I remember, the *important* cheats from each level:

Peru: .50 cal unlimited ammo (very useful for Natla's mines...)
Atlantis: Golden shotgun + silver smgs... (golden shotgun is 1 shot kill)
Egypt: Infinite health (helpful for damocles room)

Peru is easy enough... though it might take playing the levels through a few times before you get it. Same with Atlantis.

These are my favourites. And we all know how easy Croft Manor was. ;)

Croft Manor time trial?? :eek:
I can't do the time trial. 18 minutes is pretty quick.

Ahh, you don't know the glitch then. ;) Watch this (http://youtube.com/watch?v=kJBLu00SgBI) and you'll get what I mean. I got 44 seconds on this.

Does it only work on PS2? :scratch:

If only you get rewards for doing this time trial......darn.

I was just going to post something about the Time Trials in TRA.
They're so hard to beat!

I've completed the first two levels only.
The level with the T-Rex in it, I can't beat the Time Trial. I always finish that level in 16 minutes + (the time limit is 15 minutes). I think I spend quite a very long time during the dinosaurs-killing segment of the level.

Do you guys have any tips?

you have to know where you´re going, a golden shotgun or silver uzis are great help too :D nothing difficult :)

So that means I should complete Atlantis time trials first...
*sigh*... I'm hopeless.

It is not that hard really, I managed to get the trials done on the second try mostly:) Those enhanced guns are really powerfull you know, you kill your enemies even before the adren. dodge can activate itself :lol:

[ZXcorr]

Hmm... OK. I'll try to complete the Atlantis time trials first then.
Thanks. :)

That glitch is helpful!
But to do it faster, here's how.
If you have "infinite ammo cheats on," turn them off,
then go and start the Croft Manor time trial, then once it starts, pause it,
go to options, then turn the infinite.. whatever back on, and turn to the guns you turned on and you should have them, then just go to the door, and do a back handspring. (: I finished it in 21 seconds. LOL !

Oh yes, by the way, get the Atlantis cheats first because it helps you through the rest of the time trials. I just have to do Egypt time trials. Never did I think, I would beat the St. Francis Folly time trial in 13 minutes. o: Hahaha.

I try doing the time trials but I can't do any of them because the time limits are just too short that as I near the end the time ends and I'll I'm left with is anger and a weeks worth of stuff to tell my therapists.:mad2: Help please I need tips on how to beat them. I think the Tomb Raider Legend time trials were way easier.

This is *easy* enough... AFTER YOU HAVE COMPLETED THE GAME:

PRACTISE. Practise each level, the one you are trying to complete, over and over again. Try to do it on the hardest level (just below Time Trial), and do it as quick as you can. Make sure you know EXACTLY where to go, and where to push each block. If you get good enough at combat, disregard picking up medipacks (or ammo...). Get really friendly with the adreniline dodge... it comes quickly with the "heavier" weapons (i.e. not standard pistols).
Once you know this level inside and out, do it on time trial. It should be lots easier.

I found the Peru ones easy enough... they give .50 cal pistols with unlimited ammo. With that Atlantis is easy enough ('cause you don't need to do half of natla's mines... great pyramid is hardest of them... boss fights in Last Battle with a bit of navigation...)

Ive finally done the peru time trials! :)

[Arnar]
