If there is one utterly inescapable thing about life, it’s that when you’ve gotta go, you’ve gotta go. That applies to soldiers as well, of course, as is the case with one unfortunate fellow in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II. In order to obtain the “A Crappy Way to Die” trophy or achievement, you’ll need to shoot a hidden enemy that just so happens to be doing their business in a port-a-potty during a deadly shootout in the latter half of the game. In this guide, we’ll tell you in which chapter you can find the port-a-potty so that you can shoot the soldier inside and get the trophy or achievement.

How to get A Crappy Way To Die trophy or achievement

The “A Crappy Way to Die” trophy or achievement is located in Chapter 12: Dark Water, and it requires you to shoot and kill an enemy within a port-a-potty. Luckily, you won’t have to progress too far into the level to reach the port-a-potty housing our predisposed victim, as it’s located very close to the beginning.

When the mission opens, head forward and through a door a bit to the left, then follow the path through here killing the first couple of enemies you encounter. Directly after this, you’ll link back up with your squad and begin slowly ascending some stairs. When you’re nearly at the top, look to the right across the gap to see two blue port-a-potties.

Aim and fire into the port-a-potty on the left to kill the soldier inside. If you don’t do it fast enough, your team will kill him and you’ll miss out on the opportunity. When the pooping soldier is dead, you’ll earn the “A Crappy Way to Die” trophy or achievement. Yikes – as if he wasn’t regretting those chalupas enough already.

The debate around GTA 6's "physical" edition just got another twist. Rockstar has confirmed on its official website that PS5 download codes included with physical copies of Grand Theft Auto VI sold in Japan will expire 170 days after the game's November 19, 2026 launch date. That means players who don't redeem the code before roughly May 8, 2027 could be left with nothing more than an empty game box, even though they purchased a physical copy. The company says the policy is required due to regional regulations in Japan.

Why only Japan?

Fresh off launching a metallic Hall-effect keyboard and a 59g gaming mouse for flashy esports setups, Lenovo has turned its attention to gamers working with much tighter budgets. The Legion 24-1r looks made for broke college students who spent way too much on their first gaming rig and now have instant noodles doing most of the heavy lifting at dinner. It costs just 669 yuan, equivalent to around $99, yet offers a 23.8-inch IPS panel running at up to 280Hz.

Lenovo is also offering the 27-inch Legion 27-1r with the same core specifications for 789 yuan, or roughly $116. For the ramen-budget crowd chasing competitive frame rates, both look like seriously tempting deals. (via NotebookCheck)
