Today I got the Little Rocket Man achievement in HL2:EP2.

Not as tough as we discussed previously. There's only a few moments where carrying his ass around becomes a pain.

When you get to White Forest you can put him in the rocket as soon as you see it. Remember to shut the door.

I always wanted to try that achievement in L4D2.

Yeah, I got him too.  He's a motherfucker.

It's easier doing it in multi with competent partners dedicated to the task. If you do it solo, it can be ridiculously tough.

The roller coaster and the run to the stadium (right before the final level) are, by far, the toughest parts to hang onto the gnome and stay alive.

The finale can be made easier when you walk into the stadium by simply putting him near where the copter lands (1 of 2 spots that I've seen). I realize you're guessing, but it can be a time saver if you guess right.

Make sure one person in your group is holding him when the copter lifts off or nobody gets the achievement. All four get it if someone is holding it.
