I mean dude this game is just brilliant. Deserves a place in everyones collection.

If you haven't got it yet... then go and get it... right now. Stop reading, go buy the game.

Are you still here?

Oh need persuading. Well it literally reeks "cool", it is so cool to watch Joe smash a robot in front of him whilst dodging a bullet and kicking the enemy behind him right in the moosh. Controlling is beautiful ahem Viewtiful and it's even slightly taxing.

And it's a tad adult too.

Cool. Yes very cool.

Buy.

There is no default, you have to select it.

I'm up to the green guy with the axe now. I'm finding it pretty hard because he can do this thing that just hurts you. When he's nowhere near you. I don't know how it works, why it works, where it works or what it works. I don't even know when it works, or how to avoid it.

That is Hulk Davidson, methinks.

Oh, and watch the cutscene before the battle with him. Watch it repeatedly. Genius defined.

And when he swings his axe, go into Slow and begin to pound him. Also, when he charges at you, jump over, and then beat him with Speed attacks.

The washing machine was on during the cutscene. Therefore I had all vision, no sound.

I've been trying to beat him by hopping over his axe in slow mo then beating the crud out of him until my gage is nearly out, which works quite well. Except I seem to be on fire quite a large amount of the time. But what the hell is that move where you just react as if you've been hit when nothing is near you?
