OMG etc

jisms:
everything

Slightly bad:
Leon takes up a lot of the screen



This game is teh roxor. I've been walking through an off track pathway shooting out angry french people's kneecaps so they go down quicker. No more sissy auto aim. Then as they collapse to their knees I run up and round house kick them across the face.

Then I arrived at the village, got mobbed by villagers with pitchforks and scythes. My clip ran out and there was no time to reload (you can't do that inventory reload 'cheat' now either) so I ran across the village and headed into a house and barricaded the door. Cue loony paper bag man appearing and waving a chainsaw around, other villagers bring ladders and set them up to the upstairs window.

I ponce around looking for items and chainsaw man cuts through my wooden barricade, narrowly avoiding him I run up stairs and grab a shotgun off the wall. Seeing villagers climbing the ladder and starting to get in the room I realised I'm trapped, so I run into a corner between the bed where they can't get behind me and pull out the shotgun.

Unfortunatly I was a bit too slow and chainsaw man promptly decapitates me, blood gushes everywhere and 'You Are Dead' appears on the screen.


You want this game.



Also of note, walking into a shack to find a woman pinned a few feet off the ground by means of a pitchfork through the face, "No sex discrimination here" says Leon..

Back and B

If anything it helps the "oh my god gotta turn round quick there's a guy with a chainsaw just about to chop off my head" tension.

And you can spin round 180 quickly I think, I've done it a couple of times just haven't worked out how I did it :S

But it does still feel a little awkward to move around, but not so much that it affects the gameplay in a serious way.

The controls are much better. You can actually aim properly now too.

The controls do still seem to be a little sluggish, but this game doesn't have pre-rendered backgrounds like the previous one's did, which makes a hell of a lot of difference.

Damn that tense spanish!

Does it still have those bricky controls I remeber only too well from the first games?

You could clokc it in a day. I played 35 hours straight to complete first time though. It;s constantly tense with spanish and as you progress it becomes more atmospheric.

Unlikely, it is rather lengthy.

I've got an idea. I'll rent it and if I like it I'll buy it. Or even better clock it in the space of a day.
