WHere's a good place to do this head chomper thing? Biting 50 heads without touching the ground sounds like a bit of a feat, seeing as how there's never *that* many enemies on screen at once.
I've seen a few people with this achievement. Any tips?

area 1-4. get to the part of the stage with the mailbox. scroll the screen right until the mailbox is at the first third of the screen. there will be 2 agents on the screen at all times, meaning when you kill one another appears. wait until an agent hops over to the left side of the mailbox, then jump on his head and ride him to the extreme left of the screen, but don't chomp him yet. wait until the 2nd agent starts to hop over the mailbox, then head chomp him and start spamming jump. if the screen is positioned correctly, he should land right underneath you, and you'll jump on top of him. the majority of the agents will be coming from the right, but a couple will come from the left. DON'T try to do a chomp and jump on the guys that come from the left unless they stop and stand around on the left side of the mailbox. just wait for them to hop over to the right, then hop back to the left. repeat until you get the acheivement.

The trick is to learn when to chomp. Do it only when there's another enemy nearby to jump on. My max combo was 30+ and then missed a freak attack. dammit

While I personally found bg_hojo72's description of what to do a little vague (the first third of the screen thing), it does work perfectly.
The center of your screen should be between a lamp post (on the left of center) and the kid kicking a soccer ball (on the right of center), with the mailbox on the left hand side.
All you have to do then is head chomp right as an agent leaps over and press A when you're in the air. It's impossible not to get it unless you yourself screw up.

Ok i have the screen centered as mentioned, but the agents don't seem to hop over the damn mailbox.
Did you had this as well? I have to wait for like 10 shots againts the mailbox before he tries a jump.
I might be doing something wrong??

Yes, sometimes it takes them forever to jump over. Other times, they'll simply run right to it and jump. Just have to wait it out if the agent does everything but jump over the box.

There must be an easier way to get the achievement i guess?

I haven't noticed one...This is probably the easiest way, just takes a while and isn't exactly the most exciting thing to do.
Enemy packed locations like the USSR level (...I don't think that's what it's actually called, it's stage 2) where there are lots of enemies, I can get like 20, but something always disrupts the streak, usually other agents shooting me while I'm too far away to jump onto another.

Yeah that freaks me out, and thats where the mailbox comes in handy.
I'll probably finish it some day with the mailbox :)
This is probably the hardest achievement to get.
Still need some damn hats tho!

I know this is stupid, but how do you chomp heads off in this game?

You jump over an enemy's head, and when you start to fall down, push A again. Once you're on top of the enemy, press X.

While in the air over an enemy, hold downwards and press A again, and press X when you're on him. you can controll what direction they run.

God damnit, I was on a total roll, then one guy started standing around so I chomped but then he moved at the last minute and I had at least half.
Its easy as hell its just anticipating the jump over the mailbox gets you all nervous and you may jump the gun.
Just got it now.

Another method is to use a second player/ controller and simply jump on their head to keep you off the ground. I experimented with it a little while playing co-op, but haven't gone for the 50 yet.

I've had problems because every now and then the guy I was riding would get shot right before I pressed X, and I would end up shooting rather than head chomping. Very, very, annoying.

For those that have this achievement, this is my current screen position...

While I can easily do it, whenever I get to like 20 or 30 some retarded little thing will happen and I wont land on the enemy after head chomping. Forcing me to restart.
Just want to make sure Ive got the screen positioned as well as I possibly can.
Thanks.

One quick question about this. Can I land on the mailbox and then continue chomping heads off? Because it seems like a guy to the right shoots at me every now and then and there is no where for me to land other than the ground or the mailbox. Please help
