After finding all 6 golden statues in the fountain courtyard area, Ratchet comes to the tunnel of death. The forcefield has now evaporated. Walking into this tunnel is like dropping into a food processor. All the walls rotate in a different direction. The saw blades and rollers are spinning in opposite directions, so pick your path wisely. Your gravity boots will hold you in place. Make your way over to the other side of the tunnel and out to the large platform.

Welcome to the amusement park! Whack all the crates first. Ahead is a tower with 4 spinning arms. Each arm has a cabin with a versa-target attached underneath. From the edge of the pier, use your swingshot and attach to a versa target. Stay attached [hold circle] and ride along under the cabin to the far pier. Detach and latch-on to the pier versa target. Release and land on the pier. Walk to the end and find the meteor pad. Power bounce up to the ferris wheel.

Before going up the steps to the ferris wheel platform, go left and whack all the crates behind the steps. Walk up to the ferris wheel platform. Wait for a cabin to come by and jump to the roof. Ride the ferris wheel around. There are electrical discharge conduits that spray continuously as you wind your way around. Jump from roof to roof to avoid being hit by the spray. Ride around once to get the feel of it. To the right, there's a hidden terrace full of goodies. Ride the wheel to the right and heli-glide off to the terrace.

On the terrace there are tons of crates and 4 raritanium chests. Not ony that, but behind one of the trees in the bushes, pick-up holo-plan piece 2/13. Remember, if you want to get the RYNO4, you need all 13 pieces to trade with the smuggler. Go back to the ferris wheel and ride around. If you're ready, ride the ferris wheel all the way around 5 times, with no injury, for Skill point 11: I think I'm Gonna Be Sick.

Out the other side of the ferris wheel, whack all the crates for bolts and raritanium, then go to the end of the pier. There's another set of turning cabins out over the water. Use the swingshot and grab the versa target under the cabin. Hang on and ride around the tower. As you meet the second set of cabins, release and grab the next cabin versa target. Hang on til the cabin reaches the far island. Release and swing to the target on the island. Release and drop to safety.

Go to the Weapons Vendor on the right. Load-up on everything. I suggest upgrading your predator launcher first, with what raritanium you have. It will give you an advantage until more weapons become available. Whack the multiplier crate. Quicky run down to the main level and whack as many crates as you can while the bonus is still active. Load the lightning ravager and take down the sparkbots hovering around. Before going into the next grinder tunnel, go to the end of the railing on the left [X].
|
 |
From the end of the railing, look over to the open ground behind the building. Jump over the railing. Grab all the raritanium from the chests and gold bolt #6. Jump back over the railing and climb up the steps to the tunnel entrance. Toss a confuzler gas cannister to distract the 2 imperial commandos standing guard. They'll tear each other apart. When you're ready, go inside.

This grinder tunnel is more omenous than the first one. There are glass partitions between roller sections. They're not on even ground, so Ratchet will have to walk up or down the mag ramp of a roller to find the opening to get to the next section. Avoid being chewed up by a pinch roller getting to a hole in the glass. Make it to the end and Ratchet is rewarded with a cool pair of charge boots. Now you can rocket through sections with an extra burst of speed.

 |
Walk down the mag ramp to the grounds below. Load the lighting ravager and take down the swarming sparkbots. Search the area and whack all the crates for bolts and goodies. Go to the left through the archway. Climb onto the rocks under the zip line. Jump up and zip down back to your spaceship. Get in. (your ship now has a name Aphelion). Game AUTO SAVES.
