Defeating the giant moth:
-------------------------
First, gather up as much thermal energy as possible. On your way up the
mountain make sure to destroy all of the Akrid hives. Get the rocket launcher
on the metal slab jutting out of the mountain. You can also grab the large VS
laser if you want a back up. Next, climb to the top of the mountain but do not
go into the cave. Stand at the top and wait for the moth to fly over you. Aim 
at the orange weak spots then shoot the tail part with your rocket launcher 
about two times. After the tail falls off do the same to the wings. A few more
weak spots should appear near the top of his head. These are easier to hit with
a charged laser shot. When the moth crashes into the side of the mountain the 
achievement will not appear. However you will bet it after you complete the 
mission.


Defeating the final Boss:
-------------------------
When the battle first starts, notice the VS will fly around, doing various
little spinning attacks. Fly towards him. While doing this, do a horizontal
slash). This takes a rather sufficient amount of health from the Boss. Upon
doing this occasionally you can also score a second hit, but be cautious of
the homing missiles. The Boss will dart around shooting little lasers at you.
This is easily avoidable; simply follow in his direction to miss the attack
totally. Be aware, when the boss reaches around 30% health it will call up 
two laser weapons. These will do massive damage if they hit you. One is 
horizontal, and the other is vertical. Notice when he gets ready for this
attack that he will throw his arms forward. This is your cue to get as far
back as possible. The range on the lasers are fairly weak. When he is done,
he will stand still for a brief moment and shoot missiles from his shoulders.
Usually this is your cue to go in; the choice is yours to do so. The Boss 
does not have much of a pattern. About nine well placed slashes are required
to defeat the Boss. 


Crossing The Plains: Defeating the giant worm:
----------------------------------------------
Gather as much thermal energy as possible before you fight the worm. To get 
more thermal energy, destroy the surrounding heat tankards and activate the 
outpost. If you need more thermal energy, just kill the surrounding flying 
Akrid and their spawn points. Get a sled VS and attach either a rocket 
launcher or gatling gun (recommended). Ride it just to the entrance of the 
Snow Plain. If you ride it any further the worm will knock you off and destroy 
the VS. Once you get off the sled VS, take off the weapon you brought with you. 
The gatling gun is recommended because if you miss you can adjust your aim and 
keep shooting him unlike the rocket launcher. Wait until he emerges from the 
snow and be ready for him to either growl or charge at you. If he charges and 
hits you, you are dead. You can either roll to the left or right. After the roll 
aim at his sides and you will see several weak points. Shoot at them until they 
explode and reveal a reddish boil. Continue to do this until they are all gone 
then switch sides. Once he is hurt enough he may start shooting flaming balls 
that explode from his backside. Be ready to evade them. Once again you will see 
more weak points. Do the same thing as done with his head side and he will 
eventually die. When he dies he will leave behind a large deposit of thermal 
energy. The worm will re-appear no matter how many times you kill it. 


Thermal Energy Deposit: Defeating the giant worm:
-------------------------------------------------
When the worm comes out of its hole, shoot its tentacle-like arms. At the end of 
each arm should be claw-like hands. Shoot the claws. If done correctly they 
should start turning red. Keep firing at them and they will snap off. When it 
snaps, the worm will go back in its hole. Run inside after it, but stop at the 
edge or you will fall in the lava. Look around to find the body of the beast. 
Look closely and you will see a big eyeball-like thing wiggling around. Shoot 
it until goes in, then the arm that snapped will regenerate and come back out. 
Shoot the arm and when it snaps, go back in and shoot it again. When the arm 
stops coming out go for the other arm and repeat this process. Note: If you have 
a rocket launcher, use that and the battle will be a lot faster. 


VS invincibility:
-----------------
If you are taking heavy fire and would like to replenish your health (if you 
have the thermal energy) hop into the nearest VS. While it is doing the startup 
animation, you will be invincible for about five seconds. 


Getting rid of pursuers:
------------------------
If you have alot of Akrid or other things after you while riding the sled VS 
do a boost jump. While riding around you can also jump snow piles and get air. 


Easier slashes:
---------------
Charge it up. When you get close to whatever you want to hit, just release it 
for a hit. This is easier than pressing it at the spur of the moment, because 
it sometimes misses.


Avoiding Akrid:
---------------
This is a nifty trick to execute when fighting an Akrid. Try to step close to 
an edge into an abyss and fall off. Quickly catch yourself - the Akrid will 
follow you over the side and not be able to catch itself, falling into the 
abyss below.

Beating Green Eye:
------------------ 
The best way to beat Green Eye is to stay off the ground as much as possible. However,
when he shoots the ice at you get on the ground and shoot the green things on his side.
When the 4 on his head appear, shoot them with a rocket launcher or a grenade launcher.
Save a couple though for the very last one.


Grenade Tips:
------------- 
Thrown a grenade that's missed its mark? Just shoot it. Wayward grenades can be 
detonated at any time by one bullet. This is extremely helpful in taking out enemies
on higher ground. Toss the grenade up and shoot it before it lands to explode towers,
cover and pesky Vital Suits.

When the loading screen appears, keep pressing RT and you'll be shooting the word 
"loading"! Also, if you press LT, you'll throw that spinning round thing that will
