Jackie is back and along with him comes a whole slew of new achievements and trophies. Much like the first game, there are some that you can get for being passive and some that you can get for being a brutal killing machine.
Below we have added videos to show you how to get some of the more odd and trickier of the achievement/trophies that are found throughout the game. While most are from the single player campaign, make sure you don’t miss out on the Vendetta and Hit List missions as well. Not only do they add more achievements and trophies, but they also add more killing goodness that is far different than Jackie’s variety.
25 Points/Bronze Trophy
Kill 2 enemies with one javelin
There are numerous places that you can try and get this, but one of the easiest is near the beginning of Q and A where you enter the pool hall. As soon as you open the door, grab the pool cue to the right and quickly line up the two enemies that come running to the door. If you miss your shot, restart the checkpoint and it will put you right outside the door where you just were.
20 Points/Bronze Trophy
Escape the asylum with help from the inside

Earn a score of over 1000 in each of the carnival games
When you reach the carnival, there will be two times that you will experience a flashback sequence and have a chance to play the shooting games. The first game will be a duck shooting gallery where alternating between the top and middle row will score you the 1000 points needed easily. The second Shooting gallery has cutouts that will pop out in the form of bandits and sheriffs. Focus on the bandits in the back row to get the 1000 points easiest.

When you use the right tentacle, it will lash out and slice at your target. Get an enemy to step into the path of it and he will get slashed something fierce. Do that to 50 enemies during the course of the singleplayer campaign and you will get this. There are a crap load of enemies during the campaign and assuming you use the slash periodically, you can expect to get this by the end of the game.

Finish the game on Don Difficulty
To get this achievement/trophy, your best bet would be to play through the New Game + on the Don difficulty to give you the extra edge of having more abilities available to help you along the way. There are certain abilities such as the armor and stronger gun channeling that you can acquire later in the first run through that will help greatly when dealing with the tougher enemies on the second.
25 Points
In Vendettas, acquire all the talents for one character
Just like the main campaign, in Vendetta’s you are also able to upgrade a character’s abilities. The problem being that the missions are much shorter and there’s a good deal of upgrades to purchase.
