OMG.

...

OMG.

I roundhouse kick two Spanish peasants into the water, and the spray flies up, and I go 'yeah you commies' before a crazy knife woman appears out the spray and latches onto my jugular.

The game is perfection. You stand in front of a window, blasting the scum away with your shotgun, and go 'yeah b*****s, die mofos' etc, and then you get grabbed from behind, and have to run and weave and dodge and reload before you get munched upon.

Perfect blend of action and violence and obsecene amounts of blood and bullets as well as slower paced weird moments and exploring nasty bedrooms. Plus the fact it's so utterly gorgeous, I spent ten minutes using my rifle scope to look around.

OMG.

As WS said.

No - that's the payoff - you sell your upgraded guns for a high price, but you can only upgrade a new one a limited amount at first - the riot gun is 1.0 higher than the first shotgun at the basic level - so in the end, you end up with my 12.0, 28 round, 0.7 second firing beast.

Hedfix, leave doubts at the door. This game is truly, utterly, magnificent.

The controls are a little odd at times, but otherwise it's perfection - I've upgraded my mine launcher, Red09, Striker and .223 semi-automatic to near perfect levels of death dealing (+ I love that infra-red scope!) - just the 'exlusive' bit of the Red09 to go for that - I was wondering what that did...and yup, the magnums are a no no, seeing as I have held about 30 rounds of magnum ammo in the whole game.

I'm on 5-3 now. Played it far too much. Simply because it's a game that blows all others away.

Perhaps in 3rd person this could work.

I wouldn't touch it if it was an FPS. The controller doesn't 'do' FPS games for me.

Hah, just did the same thing and bought the cool new pump-action shotgun. Although it doesn't seem all that more powerful than my old upgraded shotgun.

Anyway, that section kept p!ssing me off. Ashley kept running into the fireballs. Stupid hoe.

I don't think the riot gun is that worth it, it isn't too long until you get the Striker...


I love the rifle, although you won't use it often there are some sections that are pretty much impossible without one. You should have the rifle or semi-automatic rifle with you at all times.

Keep the Red9. A hint for you, every weapon has an exclusive power that you can buy after performing all the upgrades for it. The Red9 power makes it the most powerful handgun in the game.


Also, don't buy the Broken Butterfly. You won't be firing any magnum rounds until the end of the game anyway, and before the end of the game a better magnum will be available.

Woot, I've reached the Castle, and am loth to sell my Rifle and my Red09. My shotgun can kiss my ass now, as I want the pump-action one.

But to do that, I need to sell my Red09. Which, to be a gangsta, is fully pimped up and gunning down the b*tches left right and centre.

I've died millions of times, saved loads and am generally crap.

But it's great.


The Red09 and my rifle/scope, plus the game itself.

The siege is awesome.


Tip: Don't sell the Red9, later you'll get the Blacktail which is more powerful, but the Red9 will work out to be better in the end.

OMG.

This just gets more OMG by the second.

*SPOILERS*

Rescued that tartlet from the Church, just finished 2-2 (the quality siege ending).

Set pieces and fluid organic combat. Perfectly matched.

Plus, the Red09 is the bestest handgun in a Resi game ever, beating the Samurai Edge.

This is possibly the greatest game I've played................for a long time at least. I love the invention - the way the action buttons change so you can't predict the movements, the guns, the atmosphere, the f**king amazing graphics - seriously, it's insanely good looking.

But.

I hate them tentacle heads. Erg. I stand there, with El Presidentés daughter cowering and going 'you pervert!', sniping their heads and going 'yehaa bi*ch!' and then a tentacle head comes and mashes me.

Evil.

Looks like Cycloon is jizzyming away.

Can't wait for it, although I still have a tonne of games left to play.

Just bought FIFA 2005 as well.
