That is one tough cookie, I've been working on it for the past 7 hours since I got off work and finally took a break, I usually end up with the 6th death on the final puzzle =/

So how about the 5 deaths achievement?
ya I played through the game a few times getting 6 deaths...wasn't too happy about it cause it was so close...but I know the parts that would always catch me were all the parts with the saw blades. If there's a saw blade around I'd probebly hit it...so I did just those particular parts a few times over and used certain areas (like the background) to help my timing. Like the area with the two boxes you need to stack before the blade gets ya..well there's a blade of grass that I use so when the blade gets to it I hit the next button...stuff like that. My suggestion though is play it in parts, take a break every couple minutes to break it up, cause you play it from beginning to end ya start to stress out here & there.
The part thats driving me nuts are the secret SECRET hidden eggs...some of these are rediculasly hard...to the point that you can only find them from someone telling you, cause there's no way I could see someone getting a few of these on their own...lol no way.
I was playing the game about a week before launch, and I took a look at the leaderboards. Let it be known that I practically shit my pants when I saw a guy had unlocked the "Complete in one sitting with less than 5 deaths" achievement BEFORE unlocking the "Complete Limbo" achievement.
Yeah, that's right. Somebody got this achievement on their first playthrough.

My guess was that it was a developer ." @fisher81 said:

Same, took me loads of tries and when I eventually got it the deaths I got were on parts that had given me no trouble at all previously.
I would like to S-Rank this game, but I'm not sure I will find time. Realistically I could take my 360 to work on night shift... Maybe I will get this achievement.
I did it today on my 3rd complete run through of the game. I practiced the final couple of chapters a few times and did the beginning half or so a couple of times. I did it in four deaths and two of those were RETARDED.
" @sagesebas said:So... Batman then?" @fisher81: Or a genius "He'd have to be a genius with insane timing for that ending. "
Sorry, but I need to necro this thread. I'm about to go for this achievement and I'm wondering if anyone else has gotten this achievement. I need all the tips I can get before attempting it.
