that answers quite a few questions for me. Did you save and quit everytime you hit a checkpoint that you wanted? Seems to me like that'd be real handy.
I didn't, actually. The video was actually a single take vid. There were points where I blew myself up late in the level, but was respawned at the last checkpoint with gun in tote, prepared for more mischief. Honestly, once you figure out the mechanics of the Banshee and how it generally reacts, it only takes about 5 to 10 minutes to get it through the tunnels.

 		Well, I went for it, and 15 minutes later, I got the scarab gun!

That thing is awesome. You were right, it's not too hard getting the banshee through the tunnels. The hard part is getting the tank over the first barrier-took me most of the time to do that. My first take I left it there, and the banshee disappeared against a wall right next to me. So the 2nd, I got the tank through, and made sure it was in eyesight the entire time I was fighting through. It wasn't hard getting the timing down on grabbing the banshee either-your vid pretty much showed when to do it. I snagged it first go, flew that bastard straight to the gun, and proceeded to blow up everything for the hell of it.

Can't wait to show my buddies! Very Happy

lmao, I'm glad you got a kick out of it! It's definitely one of the cooler things hidden in the game, and certainly worth the effort required to get it. Glad I could help Wink
