You lack knowledge when you come out with comments to do with things you know nothing about. You seem to think its a dumbed down version of the PC game when in fact its developed by a completely different team from scratch hence the reason why it makes the PC version look balls.

Which would be why it's carp compared to the hard as nails PC version, and why all the levels are dumbed down PC version ones ?

Y'know the village on the first level ? On the PC one that was about a 1/4 of the second level. And it snowed :P

Oh wow it snowed. Crap gameplay and utter boredom doesn't matter because it actually snowed.

Oh and don't give me crap about it being 1/4 of the second mission, I have a video of the second mission on the PC version and they completed it in 1 minute 58 seconds, granted they were good at the game but they still did it in 1 minute 58 seconds.

I was pretty happy to get online last night on R6 and find that there was downloadable content available straight away. :-)

Played the mansion level with a few guys and we were the nuts. ;-) I got the most kills with 13 - not bad for my first go of the level. ;-p

I mean PS2/XBox.....not GTA/VC.

Unless you meant the same.

Ho-hum.

I meant R63 but the Xbox version of GTA suppsoedly put the PS2 ones to shame.

Lol, triple confusion.

I imagine the XBox GTA is like the PC one, in terms of extra features. Not much more brilliant, but welcome all the same.

You obviously missed the jest in that comment.

Exactly. And you know how they will have done it ? Using teams which split up and take the level down from all possible directions, using a plan. This is what is so brilliant about the PC versions, a good plan and you rip through the enemy like lightning, perfectly co-ordinated.

On the first game I used to get a time of just over 1 minute for the first level because my plan was that perfect.

The Xbox version has no such planning, you either let the team trail behind you, or play stop start all the time advancing through the levels.
