Mine came earlier, just been playing it until it crashed my Cube (which hasn't happend in about a year, but never mind).

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

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.

From what I remember, you come out into a clearing out of some tunnels, find the Lunchbox stashed behind some boxes or something, then run straight back into the tunnels you just came out of. The portal should be staring you in the face if you just follow the tunnels for a short while.

: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.

Where's the portal?

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?

Nah mate, just run back the way you came, there's a portal right infront of you. You don't need to kill any Splitters. We're not lying - what's the point.
