*** Story related can not be missed ***
*** SPOILER ***
When you get sucked into the belly of the Hive Mind you have to shoot glowing parts in his stomach. There is a set of three. Shoot them all and you will get tossed back out and Pop achievement.
Without releasing spoilers, this fight will take place in Chapter 12. The achievement comes through natural story progression, as you will have this achievement before you can proceed to Chapter 13.
***SPOILERS AHEAD***
In order to beat this boss, like every other big boss battle in the Dead Space franchise, it takes a series of avoidance maneuvers (roll with the LB) meanwhile shooting whatever is yellow. The Hive Mind will attempt to suck you in after damaging his heart, shoot the yellow areas in the mouth to prevent him from sucking you in completely. After repeating these twice, you will be sucked in and have to fight more yellow areas within the creature. After defeating them, it's all cut scene and the achievement is yours.

A high fire-rate weapon with a decent clip like the Pulse Rifle or the Evangelizer and a Rocket Launcher is an ideal weapon as you approach the end of Chapter 12. Avoid the giant claws by rolling towards the middle of the screen. Use the Pulse Rifle/Evangelizer to fire at the yellow spots in the boss’ mouth, while getting rid of the red blobs that spawn Feeders who harass you. When the boss inhales and tries to suck you in, fire that Rocket Launcher at those nasty jaws to take out the weak spots. Do this twice and eventually on the third time, you will get sucked in anyway. Once you’re inside his gut, fire away at the yellow weak spots while boosting out of harm’s way with .
