"Splitters Future Perfect"

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

If that's the one on the spaceport then it's actually really simple if you have right tactic. They only spawn over one side of the level so there's no way of them getting your zones as long as you contain them, just take the 4 zones and sit by the forth one and shoot them everytime they attempt to get past.

Grr. I just can't do that Zones one with the Mox. A Pox of Mox or something.

Maybe it's just my crapness at Zones but I never even get Bronze :S

Yeah, me too, I did that in half the time needed for a Gold- literally!

I've done all of Amateure and Honorary League's now on Gold and Platinum, and a couple left in Elite.

Too addictive this game. Played it until about three last night up until it crashed again, (fourth time now). I'd just failed that blasted gondola card-board cut out challenge which I'd been trying for the fourth time.

That said, I got Platinum first time on the assault where you have to kill the fat blob guy at the end.

Yeah i unlocked him today aswell.Quite proud of myself got a gold 1st time on the one where your in the haunted house wih the cow's carcasses.Good old splitters.

Oh and I unlocked Badass Cyborg earlier.

Now all I need is Hunchback to be in the game and I'll be happy, I have the feeling though that they left him out.

Stupid game's far too addictive.

I've now completed the majority of the challenge with Gold or Platinum. I've got one arcade league to do and I'm 5 levels through the story mode on hard.

One of these days I'm gonna find the time to play online.

Ahh, of course.

Same thing happened to me on that robot level, just before you fight the goliath.

It was painful.

Yes, but it meant I had to start from the beginning of the level rather than restart from the checkpoint which is the start of the boss fight.

Surely if it ate her then you failed anyway?
