Turn faster when flyingWhen flying, hold L1 + R1 while turning. This will insure a sharper turn. Faster ZoomerHold L1 + R1 to go faster on the Zoomer, at the expense of maneuverability. Shoot cannons fartherTo make the cannons at Misty Island and Sentinel Beach shoot farther, hold Square or Circle + X. This helps with any steel boxes. Submitted By: Logiturn Super jumpPress L1 + X. If timed correctly, you will go into a crouch position and spring higher that you would by double jumping X, X.
Do the rolling jump, then just as you touch the ground, press X. You will jump as high as the double jump.
After double jumping, press [Circle] rapidly for a longer jump. Submitted By: Fastsubmit Different EndingCollect 100 power cells and finish the game. Get the secret endingFinish the game with 100 of the 101 power cells in your possession. Hint: Find really hard Power Cell in Volcanic CraterGo to volcanic Crater and go on the mine carts to the opening of Spider Cave. Now turn around and you will see a little metal box on the rock. (It's higher than your head so go to first person view mode and go to very edge to see it.) Now that you know where the box is, go in spider cave. Find the closes yellow Eco vent to the entrance of the cave. Power up and run as fast as you can out of the cave to the rock. To make the trip faster use rolling jumps. (run press R1 or L1 than you roll than press x and you do a long leap) and when your at the rock get to the edge or close enough and jump press box to shoot a yellow eco ball and it should home in and explode the box. The power cell comes out, get it. To find more power cells you didn't find go to the strategy guide on this site. It really helps. Hint: Boss OneAvoid the spikey creatures it sends forth until their pointybits disappear then move in for the kill. The boss will then sprout two giant leaf platforms,use them two jump and strike it in the head. repeat this three times. You'll be victorious! (Forbidden Jungle) Hint: Snowy Mountain FortWhen you get inside the Lurker Fort On Snowy Mountain, there's a big wooden structure right in front of you, climb it. Once you get the PC(power cell) next to the scout fly and orbs on the top, jump down to the platform that is the highest one.(you just jumped of it to get up to the power cell). If you look around to your back you will see another PC on a different wood structure. You have to go all the way around the fort on platforms to get to it. But, if you do a running horizontal launch (L1+square while running) from the platform your on, you can skip all the hassle of going all the way around and get another Power cell! Good Luck. Hint: Free Precursor Orbs!!!In the Forbidden Forest Kill the big flower boss. When it's dead jump on it's head to get FREE PRECURSOR ORBS!!!!! Don't lose life while jumping of a high area When you are jumping off a high cliff and don't want to lose life right before your going to hit the ground press 0. You will hover and soften your landing. Hint: No Damage from Big FallsWhen you fall from a high place, kick [Circle] shortly before you hit the ground and you won't take any damage from the fall.
Hint: Easy Way to Get Power Cell from PeliconFirst go to senital beach. Then get to the cannon(first you have to unlock the blue eco vent). Aim at the pelicon and shoot(it may take a few times). Finally swim over there(NOTE:the fish will not kill you) and the power cell should be there. Hint: Unlimited Yellow Eco When Using Yellow BallsWhen you see a yellow eco ball (NOT yellow eco vent) get it and stand in the same place where you found it and when you shoot as long as you are in the same place it will automatically charge up again. Hint: Swim fasterInstead of holding the Analog-stick in the direction you want to swim, keep tapping the Analog-stick in that direction. By doing this, you will move about twice as fast. Hint: FlyingIn training mode, get Blue Eco to go through a door; instead jump off the mountain side with rocks. If done correctly you will be flying until the Blue Eco runs out. Hint: HandstandTo make Jak do a handstand, find a cannon that fires the exploding bags. For example, at the tower at Sentinel Beach. Get on top of the barrel of the cannon. Try until Jak stands still without sliding. Hold R1 and press X. Jak will jump high. Then, press Square to slam down. If done correctly, Jak should do a handstand momentarily. Hint: Map translationThe following message is the code translated from around the outside of the map that is included with the game.
"In ancient, dreamless, uninvaded sleep, the silent giants wait to be awakened. Deep will their slumber be, silent their once echoing voices, until the world has no memory of their beginnings. In the gloom they will watch, and they will wait. Those who go to them for answers will return only with new questions. But these will come when silence ends. The one who carries the light will awaken the voices. With him one whose fate was twisted toward darkness long ago, in the time before time when the light bursts from the earth the answers to the questions will begin. But only begin, for still the world will not be ready to learn the truth of its past, or the secrets of its future." Hint: Special DoorFirst, you need to defeat the dark eco robot. After, you will talk to Samos and Keira and she will say to you "get 100 power cells and this door will open. Hint: Avoid AmbushOn Misty Island, when you go into the dark eco sylo (the huge circular arena) don't walk straight through it. You have to creep round the edge, and if you have blasted the strong boxes with the cannon, collect the precursor orbs. Hint: Dark Eco PoolTo get to the dark eco pool on Misty Island go up the platform with all the barrels rolling down and blast the strong boxes with the cannon. If you then go to the side of the platform near the barrels ad jump off you will land on a platform next to the dark eco pool. Hint: The most difficult crystal in spider caveThe most difficult crystal to reach in spider cave is most deffinately the one in the water near the dark eco pool. The only way to get to it is to make a role jump by pressing L1/R1 + X in your role. You have to time it perfectly to make it but it's absolutely doable after some practice. If that's the only power cell you can't get: don't worry. There is a total of 101 power cells to collect in the game and for the alternate ending you only need 100.
Hint: Opening Strong BoxesTo open strong boxes you can either blast them with yellow eco or hit them with a bomb. To hit one with a bomb you can either get a cannon or, on Sentinel Beach you can sand next to a strong box until a-bomb lands next to you and blows it up (when the bomb lands run away and come back when it has blown up). Hint: Ride the FallsWhen exiting the the forbidden forest you are walking along a river. Get in the river but be careful of the little fish they will bite you. Keep walking and when you reach the falls either walk or jump off. Note: you can do this to save a few extra seconds or just for FUN Hint: Hint for "Mountain Pass"In the "Mountain Pass" there is a big boulder bloking the way to a Power Cell and a few other things. You need to go to "Snowy Mountain" and unlock the yellow eco vent there.(it is behingd the trees) Now go back and get the yellow eco vent. then blast the boulder away.hint: you need to jump a clif to get the Power Cell. Hint: How to Get the Power Cell From the PelicanTo get the power cell from the pelican. You need to kick or hit the pelican, and then jump off of the cliff and swim to the will mill wheel and run to the clearing (where the rock is) and you will see the power cell ,but i warn you you should try your best to get to the power cell before the pelican does because the pelican will take it again and you will have to get it again. Hint: How to" Find the Canyon to the SeaAs you already know, there is a fisher who leads you his boat right? If you go to the water fall in back of the fisher. You will see there's a little river lead to the building (where the boss is) (the plant monster) if you go pass the blue eco vent on the cliff. You will see balls of blue eco if you look where the river ends you will see a little piece of land ,that is where the power cell is.
