After racing around the Wasteland collecting artifacts, Jak gets a call back at the garage. Sig breaks-in and tells Jak to meet him at the mountain entrance to the MetalHead nest out by the old Precursor City Ruins.

In the garage, Sig has already taken the Gila Stomper out to the mountain with him. Jump in the Sand Shark or my favorite the Dune Hopper. Race out into the desert. Not much Marauder activity this time? Wonder where they are? Follow the "mountain" icon in the radar. Make your way across to the cave entrance. [Movie sequence begins] Sig's been waiting and asks Jak... What took you so long? I know where there's an Eco Crystal? Let's go fry some MetalHeads.

Jak drives and Sig navigates. Daxter is manning the rear-mounted machine gun. Drive deep into the caves. The farther you go in, the more things start to get spooky. Like our last time in the nest caves, small MetalHead Snails come out of the cave sand and try to attack the vehicle. Keep driving. The trouble only starts when you stop. Go into the first large cave and trackdown the radar blip. As you approach, a giant MetalPede worm dives up from the sand exposing his body. SHOOT!
|
 |
Each direct hit on the giant worm will deplete the health bar on the right. Every time the worm appears, fire away as best you can while driving. Don't stop and don't let the worm get a laser target-lock on the Stomper. The worm fires back and causes damage. After the worm is destroyed, Sig screams... Yeah another one gone! Find the next radar blip and drive down connecting tunnel to the next cave. Hunt down the next MetalPede. There are 5 MetalPedes in all, to destroy.
|
 |
Drive back and forth through the cave tunnel network and track down the radar blips. Eventually all 5 MetalPedes will be destroyed. Hopefully, your vehicle is still in one piece, and you still have some power left? Approach the floodlight beacon and pick-up the Eco Crystal. Work your way back out the cave tunnels. Follow the proximity radar as your guide and follow the "wheel" icon to navigate your way out. [Movie sequence begins]. |

As they drive out into the desert, Jak has some tough question for Sig... Who was he spying for in Haven City? What does he know about Damas and his past? Why is everything so much of a secret?... Sig brushes off all the questions and says there are bigger things to worry about now... (trust me) and it's important that they stay alive and be on top of the heap when the war is over. There are some big battles coming!
|
Drive the Gila Stomper back to the garage. Marauders are out in force this time. Our advantage is our size. The Gila Stomper may be slow (even in turbo), but it's tough.
