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
Have done 19/21 Challenges and 24/27 Leagues
Does anyone know how to do the Elite League Thief match against the hordes of 'Brains' ? I managed to get 20, but 25 needed :0 '( (the Zombie monkey)

Do you just sit in a small darkened room with just 2 lights,your orange gamecube light and your t.v flashing?
Cool.
Who's you're favourite character to say you've nearly unlocked them all?
1 for golds in Challenges
1 for golds in Elite League
And I've got that Elimination with teh Disruption gun and the evil dead monkeys thief mission to gold on on in those.

Yes, Jim Smith I believe.

Probably, considering you get a character for it.
Isn't there a character you unlock only by playing through all Story missions in Co-Op?
Does Co-op completage count to your 100% rating? I'm hoping not as tis naff, if I've got a mate round Arcade is the only thing I play. It didn't count in TS2..
Anyone know if you can find this stuff in TS3?
