What difficulty are you playing TMB on?

Well, I think I really suck!  I have read what people have been saying like, "I passed it with this and this person," and, "the (enter any stage after stage two here) was cool," and I get really discouraged.  I am playing it on Normal difficulty, and I cannot get passed the second stage!  I get really close sometimes, but I can never finish the job.  I have been playing it for like 5 hours.  Oh, and I\'m using the guy who throws suicidal people at the other cars.  He is so cool!

So, do I suck, or are you guys who have passed it multiple times, or even just once, playing it on easy?

Man I am the SAME way!
I can not get past the 2nd level for the life of me!
I also get close. But thats about it.
I think the KEY may be to master those invisible and shield moves. I did not even use those last night.
But I was reading the manual and I was like OH! That will probably help.
It\'s tough but I love it.

I am using the Ice Cream Clown by the way.

Playing on Easy, I admit it:)

I was never super at the TM games anyway. Yes, the button codes (invisible-sheild, etc) are definitely needed. I use invisible alot because that big truck is always gunning for me (2nd level)

I\'m playing on Easy.  I\'ll probably start playing on Normal once I get a little more experience.

After investing some serious time with the game, i am on level 7 with Sweettooth.  Got the game set on "Easy" though.

That\'s good to hear.  I was really good at TM2, so I didn\'t think I could just start sucking now.

I still haven\'t passed the second level (I played it until 5:30 this morning ), but I found out a lot of things that work against the computer.  Shooting your weapon behind you almost always hits a computer.  They are always on your tail, so use it to your advantage.  I like to shoot a Zoomy behind me and see that all 10 missles hit.  The reticle is an awesome weapon.  Once you can get the computer off your tail, you can lock onto a target that is on the other side of the level. This weapon does some serious damage!  Freezing is a great way to cause major damage.  After you freeze, go up to point blank position and launch gas can after gas can at them.  You will get the bulls eye damage bonus every time, and usually almost completely kill the enemy.  Trapping the computer up against a wall and just machine gunning them works great if you can do it without dying.  They just sit there trying to drive off, and then BOOM!  They\'re dead.  Very hard to do, but it\'s cool when it happens.

Has anyone found out how to use the satalite weapon efficiently.  I have only been able to keep them in the target area a couple times.  It hurts a lot if you can get maximum damage, but otherwise, it is pretty weak.  It is easily the hardest weapon to use.

The most annoying thing that the computer does is run away when they are really hurt.  Usually, I lose them in a jumble of other apponents and then they get their revenge later in the round.

Well, I\'m off to beat the second level.  I\'ll try using the sheild and invisibility more often and more strategically.  Wish me luck.

Use the freeze-satellite combo.  First freeze an opponent, and then quickly drive up to them while you ready the satellite attack.  Once you\'re perfectly aimed, simply press the fire button.  It\'s gorgeous.

Thanks 128Ways.  I\'ll try that. (this is going to be so cool! )

I\'m playing on Normal, though I suck donkey balls - I\'m on stage three with Brimstone, but even though I keep getting my ass kicked I\'m still having a truckload of fun.

Great game.

Great game.

What?  You mean it gets harder after stage two?!  I am so dead.

Over ten hours since I started level two, I beat level two!!!  Finally, on to stage three.

I just beat it too!
I am also playing on NORMAL mode.
Level 3 is a breeze! (but fun)
Now it\'s on to master level 4!

Level 4 (Minion) was pretty easy.  Level 5 is where it starts to get hard again.
