More Bolts
After completing Gemlik Base leave and go back. First break the boxes to your right, then walk back to the transporter and go to the fighter hanger. Turn right and break the boxes there. Now go in the closest door and down all the steps to the elevator. Go down at the bottom the door will not open use your wrench and keep hitting the door you will keep getting bolts.

Gold Weapons
After you defeat Drek, go to planet Novalis and you will see a transporter right when you get off the ship. Press triangle on the transporter and it will tansport you to a room with gold weapons. Each gold weapon is 4 gold bolts and a certain number of regular bolts. Each gold weapon is basicly an upgrade of the regular one.

Easy skill point
On Planet Euroda (Logging Site) You will see a bunch of vehicles flying around. Pull out a long range weapon, (I suggest the blaster because of its ammo being cheapest) and fire at the vehicles. Use sniper mode for better accuracy. After a good number of vehicles, you will get a skill point.

Harder skill point
On the Blarg station in the Nebula, you will enter a green room with a Gadgetron vendor. If you want the skill point, Ignore the vendor. Enter the room and the Mutant animal boss will drop from the ceiling. For the skill point, use your Omniwrench ONLY! Perform a hyper strike over and over on the creature. You can use a weapon on the boss's minions. (pyrocitor works best) If you don't hit the boss with the weapon when fighting the minions, you will still get your skill point if you keep using the hyper strike.

Cool Hoverboard Trick
When in a hoverboard race, to do a trick called "the Revolverater," do one flip with each of the L and R buttons (except L3 and R3), if you do it right and land it, you will get a score of 500 points and a full turbo meter.

Transforming / walking hoverboard race
After you get the hologuys go back to the very first hoverboard race and use your hologuys and enter the race. You will end up walking the whole race.

Aridia's Four
There are four Gold Bolts on Planet Aridia, the first one is by a sandshark maker. You will see a bomb away wall, behind it is the Bolt. The second is on the center island, you have to be by Skid's agent to get it, and you need the Heli-pack to long jump across the mud to get it, it's in a dump truck. For the third Bolt you need the Magneboots, and once again you need to be by Skid's agent, walk up the pillars to the side of his ship to get the Bolt. Finally the last Bolt you need the Swingshot for. Follow the Swingshot path to the Trespasser's Platform. Look down and there will be some moving platforms, glide down to them and the Bolt is at the other end of the platform.

Going Commando
There is in fact a Skill point called Going Commando and it is in the last level. On Planet Veldin, destroy ten of the guys with jet packs and those laser guns using only your wrench.

Last Gold Of The Game
The last three Gold Bolts in the game are in Veldin, Ratchets home planet. The first one is on the platform that has about 15 Elite Gaurds, it's behind the laser door, it's easy to get, just whip out the Taunter and lure the frog in there to step on the switch and the laser will die. The second Bolt is above that platform, when you get to the first Swingshot Ball in the level, look to the right for platforms, follow them to the Gold Bolt. The last one is just before the sewer tunnel, just before you get the swingshot out, look to the right for a Grind Rail path, use it and it will take you to the last Gold Bolt in the game.

Drek's Fleet Gold Bolt
On board the ship, before going to Veldin there are two Gold Bolts. The first is at the end of the electric water tunnel, but instead of going to the right side of the fork at the end, go to the left for a Gold Bolt and a timer to start the electric current over once you jump out. The second is tricky, when you are in the room that is upsidedown and filled with barking dogs and lasers, get off the platform and go through the door to the right, the Bolt is in that room.

Beast VS. RYNO
On the planet Umbris when you get to the part where Quark betrays you. You should fight a giant beast. Note: You will need the RYNO for this. Pull out your RYNO and fire it at the beast, it should take away one section of the beast energy and the the beast will use his energy shield and then lure the monster to the loose bridges. If you do this right you should only have to use only three shots.

Dodge Flip
This is not really a cheat but it helps to dodge bullets and looks really cool. To do this start running and keep running and all at once press R1, X, and snap the joy stick over. This should result in a corkscrew that helps you dodge bullets. You can also do it while firing to make it offensive too!

Gold Bolt (Orxon)
To get the Gold Bolt at the end of the long tunnel in Orxon you need the gold devastator. It is the only thing that will blow open the metal gates. Make sure you do not fall in the goop because you will have to start over again.

Second Gold Weapons Room
After you have beaten Drek and you have either started over or have gone back to last safe go to Gremlik base and defeat Quark. Do NOT go into your new ship if you are starting over. There wil be a tower to the right facing down the runway. Go to it. There should be a passageway that goes all the way through. Right after the passage levels off start doing wall jumps. At the top there is a platform with a button. Hit the button and it will take you to the top of the tower with all of the gold weapons cases.(Note: The weapons in there are the ones that you havn't gotton already.)

Infinite Glide
This is something that you can ONLY use with the Thruster-Pak. Just double tap R1 and you start gliding on the ground for as long as you want Do not go of a cliff with this. You can use weapons while gliding. You can also use the Quick Srlect Menu while hovering. If you press x, square, or any of the R or L buttons to stop gliding. (Note: You can go to the Gadgets Menu to get the Heli-Pak and use the Heli-Pak to hover when you're already hovering!)

Skill Points, 3 more
For the skill point "Quarktastic" on Metropolis you have to destroy the Quarkbot.
For the skill point "Buired Treasure" on Pokitaru you have to destroy all the crates in the ocean.
For the skill point "Careful Cruise" on Drek's Fleet you have to get through the water tanker without losing any health.

Cluck, Cluck + Whirlybirds
If you want to get the Skill Point, " Cluck, Cluck," go to planet Rilgar/Blackwater City. Go right/East when you get out of your ship. Jump on the platform and jump where you see some acid shooting enemies. Then, go to your Weapons Menu and pick the Gold Morph-O-Ray if you want a big chicken or the Morph-O-Ray if you want a small chicken. And whatever you do, do not shoot the acid soldiers with any other weapon besides one of the two I mentioned earlier. After you have turned the acid soldiers into soldiers into chickens, you will see an acid shooting tank. The reason I said to turn the acid soldiers into chickens is because you DON'T want to harm the tank. Then, try to go directly under the tank and turn him into a chicken. That's the first Skill Point, and here's the second one...! If you want to get the Skill Point, "Whirlybirds," go to the very first planet that is snowy. (The planet before Gremlik Moon Base.) Right when you get out, shoot five helicopters with any weapon except the turret at the end of the level. Easy, isn't it?

Gold Bolt In Gaspar
If you want to get the two Gold Bolt's on planet Gaspar, follow these steps:
After you have beaten the level, go back to the end of the level (You can just take a shortcut from the first part of the level: go left.) When you are there, look down in the lava. You should see a cave that is in the lava and looks like a monster's mouth. Glide in the cave. Go to your Weapons Menu and select the Walloper. Try not to destroy everyone there, but as you go along, you can hit a few people if they get in your way.
At the end, you should see an elavator that leads to the Gold Bolt! There is also a lota' ammo up there!

Gold in Drek's Fleet
If you want to get the Gold Bolt in the 2nd to the last planet, just follow these directions....
At nearly the end of Drek's Fleet, go into the door where you walk with the Magneboots and lasers + robot dogs everywhere, except, go on it right-side-up. You might think you have to go in the door on the left, but it's right. You will see a bunch of lasers on the ground. Stretch-Jump over them and go in the door on the right. You will see some more lasers, Stretch-Jump and take out the robot gaurd. Go in the door right in front of where you are standing. Gold Bolt!

Pokitaru Strategy
If you want to beat Pokitaru pretty easily, follow these steps: When you are helping the fat guy on the Info-Bot, there is an easy way to beat the areas where you are on a raft. Surround the peremiter with Decoy Glove ammo and 2 Glove of Doom balls. Go to your weapons menu and pick the Walloper. Destroy the bouncing mutant fish thingies and you will get at the end of any of the rafts easily. No sweat! If you are on the land, send a G.O.D. ammo out and use the Walloper or Devastator.If you are in an area where there are those mutant fish in the water, just use the Blaster or Devastator. If you are near one of those things that are pink and growing out of the ground, use the Devastator at a far away range. When you are in the ship, just try to avoid the flying fighters, and destroy the poluting ships. If you need ammo or health, or both, just destroy the flying fighters.

Destroyed
If you want to get the Skill Point, "Destroyed," on planet Gaspar, follow these directions. Whatever you do, don't go the way you're supposed to go to find the Pilot's Helmet on Planet Gaspar. Refacing the elevator, don't go there. Turn exactly around. Walk forward and off the cliff. You will be on a path. Follow it and you should find a little platform. Jump on it. Use the Swing-Shot.Jump on the other platform. You should see a number of Blarg Bombers. Destroy them with the Devastator. Shoot the generator attached to a cord attached to the Bomber. Whenever you have to use the Swing-Shot, use it. Whenever you have to use the Devastator on the Bombers, do it. Whenever you have to destroy enemies, do it. Eventually, you will come across a platform with at least five Bombers. Shoot the generators with the Devastator. Ta-da! Bonus! There is also a Gold Bolt nearby. Scavenge around the platform until you find a Versa-Target (not the one you just used to get to the end platform in the first place.) Use the Swing-Shot to get to another platform. Gold Bolt! And there is even a lava raft to take you back to your ship.

Eliminate a Racer
At the racetrack in the Gadgetron Site on Kalebo III, if you know you can't win the race, save a rocket until the end and launch it just before crossing the line. Select "Continue" and a rocket will fly towards and destroy the nearest racer at the start of the race.

Skill Points 4
Speedy: (Blackwater City) Finish the hoverboard race in under 1:35
Girl Trouble: (Blarg Tactical Station) Beat the final Queen including Minions with only your wrench. [Hint:Wait until you have all eight life spheres.]
Destroyed: (Blarg Refinery) Destroy all the dry-dock destroyers. [I had a little fun and did it with the visibomb]

Gemlik Base gold bolt
To get the bolt from the shielded area, you launch a visibomb from your ship and direct it to the biggest dome-shaped building. you guide the bomb into a large vent and steer it down. you destroy the tower that generates the shield. simple!!! The difficulty is medium-hard.

Unlimited bolts
This may take a long time to do but anyway. When you have landed in Metropolis jump of the side with the railing. (before you jump you should see if there are cars going into a tunnel.) Once you are in the tunnel go to what ever side you like and do comet-striks up at the cars. Every time you hit a car bolts will come out.

How To Get The RYNO
To get the all powerful RYNO (rip ya a new one) go to the 5th planet. When there, go across the water to a box (it should be North-East from your ship) and go through the rooms. There are tricky guys here, including multiplying blobs and tanks that shoot gas. Get to the end of this part and jump onto the taxi that says "press triangle to go downtown." It will take you to a place that looks like New York City. There are more tanks and blobs and guys you will have seen before. These are guys in suits that have a spray gun. But they're not all that bad, because if you don't get in their way, they will actually exterminate the blobs! Wait for them to do this and then kill them. In this small area there is a guy who doesn't attack you, but offers you a RYNO for 150,000 bolts! If you don't have the cash (I didn't!), get the cash! And then come back and pay up. He'll hand it over. The RYNO is a huge military weapon that fires many homing missiles at a time. One shot takes up one ammo and the ammo costs 25 bolts each! It holds up to 50 ammo at one time and when the guy gives it to you it has 25 ammo. You can later destroy the Snargle Beast at the end of the level "Captain Quarks HQ" with the RYNO.
