OT  How did you manage to get all of the Platinum Medals on Blast Corps?  It seems as though it would be impossible.

Another great gaming accomplisment of mine: Beating GoldenEye on 00 Agent.  That level where you protect Natalya was a pain.

Yup, GoldenEye is a pain. I didn't beat it entirely on 00 Agent, gave up on the last few levels, because Natalya is a deathseeker.

Blast Corps is funny in that the clock keeps running at the same pace even if the rest of the game slows down. In some levels you can save a couple of seconds just by using a different camera angle to avoid slowdowns. Of course, there's still many levels with a tight time limit, those where you have to use the truck are especially difficult. Except for the long level in the desert where the nuclear transporter drives on rails. I think I got about 20 seconds below the platinum time limit on that one.

Huh, so changing the camera angles helps you save time?  I never in a million years would have figured that out. I was happy with getting all gold medals.  That in itself was frustrating.

By the way, have you ever gotten back to trying to get all of the Platinum Medals in Donkey Kong Country Returns?  I haven't played that game in months.
