Agreed, JohnCroft.
And I have the same feelings with Uncharted Time Trials

But its so rediculous that you cant complete 100% without finishing them -_- not to mention you feel rushed all the time

Typically, if you get all the artifacts, relics, rewards etc, the games will show that you have an 100% completion, even if you don't do the Time Trials...I agree about the rush

I'm not a fan of time trials but if you follow guides on youtube its not that bad. I unlocked the golden shotgun by finishing all the trials on the Lost Island first. It definitely helps with the rest of the trials.

Indeed, it does...and, fortunately, the Time trials of the Lost Island levels were not that hard, so you wouldn't have too much trouble acquiring it.

Yeah, unlimited ammo really makes ''Natla's mines'' time easy...there is also a nifty shortcut (Where you can skip getting the 2nd fuse and go immediately to the 3rd one) that really works for those who don't want to do the Time Trials without cheats ...For me, Egypt time trials are easier than the greek ones (As I have written in another thread, IMO Tomb of Tihocan and Midas's palace offer the hardest Time Trials in all the game )

Same.

I remember freaking out trying to do Time trial for St Francis Folly, thinking that it was gonna be the hardest to do. Turns out Obelisk of Khamoon was hardest since in that level you have to literally not make any mistakes. Especially grabbing moving ledges in time. Ugh.

Or am I confusing this with Temple of Khamoon?

I agree about Obelisk of Khamoon...it's that the level is hard enough itself, and given the time pressure, parts like the room with the rotating blades can be a pain in the , due to being in a rush...
As for the Temple of Khamoon and St Francis Folly, I found them easy, as, even if I did mistakes (getting hit, losing lives etc), I still had plenty of time to finish their Time Trials.
My personal nightmares are Midas's palace and Tomb of Tihocan (especially the latter). Even if I use plenty of shortcuts and not make mistakes, I finish them with just a short amount of remaining time. And in Tomb of Tihocan you have to be especially careful when you place the board to reach the exit, as, sometimes, it gets stuck under the platforms underneath the exit, and you don't have the time to put it in the correct place (and this can happen if you misplace it just a tiny small distance away from where it should)
