Quads

I decided to forgo the rest of the orbs and any other out of the way achievements, they were just grinding the game to a halt and sucking all the fun out of it.

So today I just played normally and just focused on the fun and game play, and I finished 4 chapters. The only time that I used an achievement guide was to find the hidden masks, since I'm more interested in where that story is going than the achievements for it.

Story wise, in chapter 8 Trip and Monkey manage to get the big vault doors open only do find Trip's father dead and his dying message playing. Trip decides that she can't free Monkey yet since she need his help going after the slavers. In chapter 9 they track down an old friend of Trip's father named Pigsy then in the next 3 chapters they go after the parts needed to fix Pigsy's flying bus thing.

The odd thing about Pigsy is that he's not animated as well as Trip and Monkey. While Monkey and Trip have super mo-capped faces that show subtle movements, Pigsy's face moves like a rubber mask. It may just be all the metal bits they tacked on him that messes up the animation, or they just didn't mo-cap his actor since it's a minor role late in the game.
