Tactics
This game became a rite of passage amongst launch titles to score your first 1000 points in a game. Friends played it, cursed it, then threw the game to someone else.
You will easy pick up the 1000 points if you play through the whole game because it is very linear. There’s no collect missions or specific tasks. However to make it even easier, use the cheats. The cheat codes for King Kong will still unlock achievements!
CHEATS

HINTS
Now I could provide a walkthrough, but the game is pretty straight forward so it is very unlikely you will get stuck anywhere. However the game is slightly bugged and you may find yourself unable to move forward because a door won’t open or you are lost with nobody about. Re-loading the last save or re-start the level again normally fixes these scripting bugs.
Below are some hints that may make your escape more easy.
Set Fire To Everything
That’s right. Burn anything whenever you can. Chances are you’ll either kill something or reveal a way forward.
Run A Lot
Always run. Don’t hang around and be a tourist looking for hidden extras or more guns (the cheats will give you more ammo). Just run to your next objective. If you see a V-Rex, don’t try and shoot it. You can’t kill it, so just run away from it and let Kong deal with it. Running, believe it or not, makes the game go faster.
Button Bash
When playing Kong and you are in a battle, button bash a lot. Don’t stop for a second. All you are trying to do is wear your enemy down, then go for the killer blow. Cheats don’t work while playing Kong, so there’s no way around it. In fact, I was watching another TV screen in a lot of my Kong battles, while still bashing my buttons, then turned around for the killer blow.
Don’t spend a lot of time killing men, birds or raptors. Button bash them aside and move on.
Note : All Levels Unlock Cheat
If you use the "All Levels Unlocked" cheat, you can just complete the levels with the achievements, which will make the game go a lot faster. Like some people have completed it this way in under 2 hours. However, be warned as you will not be able to unlock "Completed game" achievement as this requires you complete the game from beginning to the end. Credit goes to Ninjaaah for this hint.
