How to unlock the I Like to Keep This Handy achievement in Aliens vs. Predator - Definitive Guide

For Single player it's best to be done on the Refinery in the Marine's Campaign toward the end of the stage. There is a pit with a green mist with several face-hugger pods, open 2 of them and ready the shotgun. It's an enclosure so you don't have to worry about the buggers running under anything or straying away. When you have a clear shot at both of them use the LT to fire. If you miss or kill one by accident, just reload the checkpoint and all you have to do is kill 2 Aliens and you're right there again.

I got here as well after trying the bridge, and there of course they never, ever lined up!

Basically, jump in the pit and run around in a circle, which will open the eggs. The "Face Huggers" will hatch, then settle in the middle of the pit, where you'll be able to line up, without being harrassed and blast a couple of them.

With this approach, I did this on the first attempt.

A comment posted to the youtube video from Mr SM 1 gave a really easy way to get this achievement. Managed first time with this method.

"I got this achievement earlier in the same level,after you get out of the first section of mineshafts and first reach the building grab the first shotgun you see,and go into the facehugger room (make sure you leave your light on to better see the mobile facehugger) wait until? the two face huggers (one will be attached to the marine on the floor) are lined up and use both barrels of the shotgun."

Took me like 2 attempts, super easy. I used the primary fire though but I suppose it doesn't matter

Awesome stuff! Got it on my second try! After the small cutscene where you see the egg open just wait where you regain control, point the reticle on the facehugger that is on the face of the marine and then, using the LT, when the the second comes into range BOOM! Job done Thanks!

I found the quickest and easiest way for this one to pop was in survivor mode.

If you avoid the aliens during the round and let them build up, you can eventually turn around, run backward, and unload. A good spot is the cell block because the tunnel portion can be used as a funnel where they're all directly in front of you.

Another spot for this achievement in the single player is the same level rayner2814 is discussing, Refinery. If you hold on to those shotgun shells, you will cross the bridge after restoring power and a swarm of aliens crawl out of the cave. Backtrack to the building and aim down the hallway while waiting for the aliens. Wait for them to bunch up and pull the left trigger for the alternate fire.

Even later in Refinery from the previous two solutions you can try a very fast method by going for two for one with the secondary shotgun blast on facehuggers in the first stage of the Matriarch fight. Just get close to a few eggs to spawn some facehuggers, head for a corner, and blow 'em away.

I got it on my second try. The checkpoint is right there as soon as you enter the chamber so it's a quick way to bang it out, even if you can't get it at first.

A difficult trophy, complete it in the second mission, when you are on the bridge, wait for the right moment and shoot. Video tip.

In mission 2, at the very end where you have to kill the queen, there will be a lot of facehuggers, we wait until two are nearby and shoot. Knocked out in 2 minutes.
