Resident Evil 4

I found myself in exactly the same position, and like you, decided maxing other weapons were more important than upgrading the broken butterfly.

Apparently the exclusive for the broken butterfly is firepower: 50.

whats the exclusive for the other weapons as i've not noticed a difference

maybe i'm an idiot

[Mayhem]

It's usually increased firepower but in a couple of circumstances, it's the firing speed or capacity I think.

And we're over 1,500 posts now... biggest First Play thread ever for a long time?

It Deserves it, thats for sure.

Theres something about the weapons in Resi 4 that makes them great, The Sniper is the best example, greatness surrounds it and makes it feel spechial, The original Shotgun in Resi 4 is my favourite weapon, to the look of it to the sound of it.

IMO.

Resi 4 Shotgun> Doom Shotgun

Resi 4 shotgun> every shotgun in any game I've ever played

I've got 6 bottle caps in the first shooting range. Is it possible to get any more or can I only get more at the next range?

Next range for more -- 6 caps each range.

There's actually a playing manual which explains all this stuff at the counter you know.

Just got to the second disc. This game gets stupid! No ammo and enemies that are tough as nails. Still enjoying it though Wish the corridors would cease.

Well, I've had this for a few days now. Fukkin wicked mate!

took me a while to sort out a component cable/freeloader and 2nd hand copy of it but got there in the end. Now Im running prog scan lovliness. The borders hit me at first but once the game got going (i.e STRAIGHT AWAY!!!) I never looked back. I havent even bothered to zoom in with cinema mode yet either!

My mum keeps interrupting my gameplay with accusations that I only play violent games, for fuks sake!!! I slowed right down when I finaly found the pres's daughter, I was too over prtective I think. Stupid bitch went into every bear trap there was!!! I cant have been the only guy here who wished there was a QTE with Leon and her, she's get bummed harder than that girl out of 'Last Tango in Paris'

Im about to restart that house bit where all the zombies are climbing in. I've got no excuse for not clocking this now seeing as I;ve just been made unemployed!!!

Help. I sold my IR sight to the pirate and now I can't remember what it looks like to buy another one. Don't have much cash to blow on all sorts of kit.

->Open Spoiler<-

? I thought after the first spikey I wouldn't need it. I've just met some more and my arse is getting a kicking. ?

Stupid IR sight. Oh and it's for the bog-standard rifle.

Just buy a sight, fit it, see if it's the IR sight, if it isn't re-load the game and do the same again until you've picked the correct one.

That's what I was doing. Thought it may be quicker to ask here.

I would have a look for you right now, only I've lent my copy to a mate.
