    You can obtain this on any level except the 1st. Pick up an axe or a knife (or anything that is a sharp throwing weapon). Hold RT and aim for the head of the enemy. As long as it's read, press RT to throw it. If successful, the object will kill the enemy.

    Thanks, I was starting to think throwing objects didn't work (only tried bricks and books before). This is so much fun to do!

    N3OANG3LIt's LT not RT for the aiming.

    This achievement is surprisingly easy for a 50G. I got this in the Create Contracts Tutorial, which started me in the Chinatown level. Walking into the mission area, I walked all the way straight, past the King (who’s the suited dude talking on the cell phone), and to the end of the map where there’s a female chef cooking up some stuff at a booth. To the left of the booth is a knife. I marked this lady as a target (since I was creating a contract), and picked up the knife. Pressing LT to aim at her from the side of the booth, I pressed RT and threw the knife at her. She died and the achievement popped, to my surprise. I suppose this would be one of the earliest points where you could get the achievement – I haven’t even started the story mode yet when I got this.

    Hope this helps!

    You don't actually have to mark them as a target. I did just like you said, but forgot to mark her first. Still popped right away.

    This is fairly simple, but finding items to throw seem to be very few and far between. Most levels will have some sort of throwing weapon, you just need to find one of the items you can use. In this case, and the video below we’re going to use a knife. Once you have your weapon of choice, aim with the :lt: then throw with the :rt: when you have the red marker around the enemy’s head.
