How to unlock the Thunderball achievement in Quantum of Solace - Definitive Guide

Power weapons are found in places throughout story mode. There are 12 in total and can be found in gold boxes. In order to get the achievement, you only need to open the box (no need to actually pick up the weapon). Only one power weapon is found per level and they are found on the levels:
White’s Estate
Siena
Opera House
Sink Hole
Shanty Town
Science Center Exterior
Science Center Interior
Miami Airport
Montenegro Train
Barge
Venice
and Eco Hotel

Here is a good guide to find these weapons: -Dead link-
Thanks to El Mexikan0 for the link

And thanks a lot to PriorKarma for confirming there's no way to track which guns you already have but you CAN quit the level after opening the box and it will still count.

There is no way of telling which ones you have remaining, but I can confirm that you can collect the gun and then quit after a checkpoint and still get this achievement.

I can also confirm that you don't need to play the whole level after getting the weapon crate, just make sure to get the checkpoint after like PriorKarma said. Thanks for the tip.

In order to unlock this trophy you will need to find and open a number of briefcases containing weapons scattered throughout the game. Bear in mind that not all levels have a power weapon hidden. This video guide shows where to find each weapon in each level. Note that you can quit the level as soon as you have found the weapon and it will still count towards the trophy.

If you look hard enough, you will find a power weapon lying around somewhere in each of the levels, except for Casino Royale. They are the weapons found in the gold suitcases. They pack more of a punch than normal guns, and often have higher rates of fire than the normal armaments. They can be a huge help when completing the game on 007 difficulty.

For a list of each gun and its location, see below:

WHITE'S ESTATE:
Hutchinson A3 shotgun: In an alcove on the left side of the winding corridor, after entering the mansion cellar.

SIENA:
LTK Super Magnum: In the bedroom, entered through the window, look to the left hand side.

OPERA HOUSE:
TLD 22s: After the sniper section, when the timer starts. Jump down and head to the right hand side.

SlNK HOLE:
D.A.D. System: In the bunker like cave which overlooks the cavern, just before the helicopter arrives, follow path to the end. Can go no further.

SHANTY TOWN:
8-CAT: In the hut you have to defend, directly in front of you as you enter. You can’t miss it.

SCIENCE CENTER EXTERIOR:
D.A.D. System: After the guarded car park, Up one floor, a door is opened by an enemy. Go in.

SCIENCE CENTER INTERIOR:
TLD 22: To the right, after the elevator escape sequence.

MIAMI AIRPORT:
D.A.D. System: Leave the last server room, and head towards the dark area with the van. Go up the stairs and enter the door to the right.

MONTENEGRO TRAIN:
LTK Super Magnum: As you drop down into the 2nd carriage, go around the bar. It is tucked in there. Easy one to miss.

BARGE:
TLD 22: After you shoot through the porthole to cause the explosion, look in the second room on your right behind a table.

VENICE:
LTK Super Magnum: After the balance beam, before entering the defended courtyard through the windowed hallway. Hard to miss.

ECHO HOTEL:
8-CAT: In the second section of the underground car park, far right corner, inside a loading/storage bay.


If you miss a weapon for any reason, you can use the Chapter Select to go back and retrieve it after.

NOTE: Make sure to save the game before quitting, so as not to loose the phone. I recommend you play on to the next checkpoint before saving and quitting, just being on the safe side.

You only have to open the box they are in to get the achievement, you don’t have to actually pick the weapon up, they are very good weapons and they help a lot though. There is only one per level and they are in:

  • Opera House
  • Sink Hole
  • Shanty Town
  • Science Center Exterior
  • Science Center Interior

If you die after you found a power weapon but before you reached the next checkpoint, make sure you go back and find the power weapon again. If you go back into the level to get the weapon, make sure you reach the next checkpoint before quitting out.

Refer to THIS guide to find where exactly every power weapon is.
