They only spawn if you start from the beginning of the level on Co-op. | | − | *Remember, Iron Skull makes you and your teammates go back to your last checkpoint if you die. This can be a hindrance, especially on the last 'warthog run' section of the game, because, as the achievement requires you to beat the game with ''everyone'' in ghosts, if one of you dies, then you all need to restart. Practicing the course and figuring out the major obstacles is recommended.

Be creative, it is possible. You can then actually hide as a group behind Johnson and let him fry the flood for some time before moving on. | | *There is a way to climb up the front spire to the very top of the complex, and, with a combo of edge walking and jumping, you can make it to the ledge with SgtMaj.

The most common phenomenon is similar to the out of body experience. It's a sensation of floating above your actual self, as if you are a spirit hovering over your reposed body lying on the bed. Although it's not a past life experience itself, it brings you closer than ever to the spiritual, and thus makes you more apt to remember your past life. This experience is usually accompanied by an increased heart rate and REM-like eye movements as you "look" at the scene around you. | | *Realize that some pretty weird things can happen during past-life regression and self-hypnosis.

From a strictly psychological point of view, it doesn't make any difference whether hypnotically-induced past-life regression experiences are actually real or whether they are a form of experiential theater.

Your memories will become more vivid, your heart rate will increase, and then you will start to get a sensation like you are very, very small, as if your entire being consists of a tiny speck of consciousness peeking out from where your eyes should be. The images you see will then become fragmented, like a broken pane of glass. You might begin to view abstract things, shapes and forms, like something out of a strange dream. Gradually all the past-life memories will be overtaken by this fragmenting. This whole experience can be disconcerting. But recognize anything odd and similarly abstract to be something that's normal. Don't let it worry you. Simply remove yourself from the imagery and stop. Thinking about your body (and being in it) will make you automatically return to it. | | | *Don't mistake the truth with what you want to see, or as Bob Dylan said, "don't go mistaking paradise for that home just down the road." | | *Don't mistake the truth with what you want to see, or as Bob Dylan said, "don't go mistaking paradise for that home just down the road." | | − | *Another common phenomenon that can happen is "fragmenting".
