Very weird to play this after Resi 4, I don't think you couldn't get two shooting games any more different from each other.
So far:
+ Lots of humour and little touches which made me smile
+ More Captain Ash
+ Looks and sounds alot better with alot more speech
+ The stats & character gallery are back, with some old favourites
+ Intimidatingly huge amount of Challenges etc. to do
+ Doesn't look like EA have messed around with FRD's game.
- Couple of framerate slowdowns
- Pathetically weak and short opening level (the demo level)
- I seem to be crap at Arcade league.
The opening Story Level is a let down, specially since the beginning of TSP2 threw you into the sublime Siberia level. But the next level is far better. And has Captain Ash who is hilarious :)
Oh, and in the extras section you can see the credits, which has Cortez going all Saturday Night Fever on a mirror-balled dance floor. The sign on the wall says "The Big Tipper". :D
Thanks

Nope
No portal on my game :(
Do you mean down the first set of tunnels from the lunchbox or further on, past the Waterfall clearing, into the next set?
:S

Definitely, I was bored after 15 minutes, also I had pins and needles.
Edit: Also, if you pause it, you don't get your score uploaded so he was sat there for two hours non-stop... Unless he glitched it.

:O Holy shiznit.
Though jealous part of me is comforted by knowing the person (oh come on, it's obviously a bloke) is probably a total Colin.
Can you give a slightly better description. Sorry, it's just I can't find one.
Can you direct me from the place where you get the lunchbox?
It's been posted about earlier and you wrote that I didn't know anything, I assumed you knew what it was
