Hint: Hidden Spots

Here are some hiding spots in multiplayer and singleplayer:

Upheaval (The house next to the burning house) - Stand on a windowsill and face the side. You should fall on a ledge below.

Upheaval (The burning house) - Go up the steps and out the window in the same way to hit a ledge below.

Hanger (The porch outside the hanger entrance) - Close to the hanger there is a large white carved stone. Jump on it and try and hop over the fence. You’ll fail, but you will land on the fence.

Courtyard (At the end of the courtyard) - Go into the shack and turn right. Use the jutting out portion of wall to hop into the tree.

Cheat: Veteran Mode Made Easy Glitch

Begin a mission on "Veteran," then save and quit after the very first checkpoint. Go back to the Mission Select screen and restart the exact same mission, but change the difficulty to "Recruit." As the level loads, keep an eye on the white loading screen bar. When the bar is about 1/3 full, press the Xbox Guide button and return to the dashboard. Re-enter the game and select "Resume." You'll find that you're playing on "Veteran," but the enemy AI will be set to "Recruit."

Easter Egg: The Ray Gun

On Little Resistance, as soon as you get to the beach you'll come across four small craters, from right to left along the beach (facing land from the water). You'll have to walk through these in order, from right to left. The largest one is the first you should walk through (on the right) and it is full of water. The second one has water too, but the third is dry. The last has water in it. Stand in this one for a few seconds and look towards the tree line (this step is rumored not to be necessary). After about ten seconds, four dog-like lion statues will rise out of the ground (Zoooool!) and you can nab the Ray Gun from one of them. Item!: Apparently, the ghostly voice says "Future Warfare" in Japanese.
