    There are so many memorable moments in this game it's criminal.

    (major spoilers follow) - I wouldn't read them unless you've seen all the game has to offer


    • The bit in the movie cinema with

      Sean getting impaled through the eye

      was just Loved the way that

      they show it to you three times as well

      just to hammer it home


    • Getting

      gassed by the crazies and waking up in a box with nothing but your camera and a pair of pants



      In fact I still love everything about

      the nutters and their dynamite chasing antics.

      "Seize him!"

      "Don't let him get away!"




    • The whole

      underground bomb collecting thing with Carlito chasing after you in the truck. Especially where he legs it and drives off through the crowds of zombies, leaving you in near darkness and surrounded by hoards of the buggers.

      First time I played it I'd got the first bomb and was on my way to the second (shouting Wheeeeeeeeeee as I mowed down the zombies) when I could see something coming through the crowd towards me. It was a real "Oh ****!" moment as I twigged what was going on and we missed each other by inches, hearing him frantically trying to do a U-turn and come after me again



    For me time spent in the

    underground areas, driving over zombies, never seems to get boring



    • Also the slight irony of

      where Carlito dies whilst bemoaning the America's insatiable appetite.

      • I loved that bit. Was pretty freaky,

        I mean what was their camera set-up for?

      • I think that was probably one of my fave moments.

        The smile on my face when I discovered the Motorcycle. It's pretty intense down there when all you've got is a knackered baseball bat.

        I know what you mean, you just get the feeling they were going to be doing something really dodgy.

          I clocked the box for this in HMV today proclaiming the "world rankings" feature.

          Thing is, if you're going to do world rankings why in the name of all that's good do the Americans get to have it a month before anybody else ? stupid, stupid, stupid.

            Anyone know of a glitch that doesn't clock up all your pp at the end of the game? Completed for the 2nd time and it while it added up all my bonus points for rescued/killed etc it never shows on the world ranking. Ranking shows my games playthrough without ending bonus. Meh.

              Rubbing it in now are we >_<

                Can't say I've had that but I'm still having problems with the achievements not unlocking.

                I've completed the game loads of times now and still haven't unlocked some of the basic ones like Legendary Soldier (and I've lost track of the number of

                special forces

                I've taken down to get it).

                I've no idea why, but I'm guessing it's for the same reason that it took mutliple attempt for the other achievements to unlock as well

                  The achievement descriptions are often less than precise...have you tried defeating 10 spec ops in one area (no loading screens inbetween)? Perhaps it's like the 'strike' achievement in that you need it all in one go. I've got the legendary soldier achievement, I think I may've got it that way (in Paradise Plaza whilst stocking up on OJ).

                    Yep, definately done that (and it wasn't easy)but it just won't unlock. Same with the others as well.

                    edit: I'm wondering if it's anything to do with my gamer profile as I had the same problem with PDZ when I first got the 360. Had to delete the profile, recover it and play again before the achievements started to unlock

                      Ouch, I'm considering going for the Otis calls award, but it seems difficult and this kind of thing only further discourages.

                      I had problems with PDZ, got the 5x dark agent award on my 6th, so forget going for the rest...

                        been enjoying this the past few days. as has been mentioned before, its pretty overwhelming at the beginning. there`s so many messages/scoops/people to rescue, but i`m taking the "level frank up before i play properly" route, before restarting again properly.

                        1 question though, and regards rescuing folks

                        where exactly am i meant to take them to ? they usually end up dead as i try & fight my way through zombie hoardes, and either forget about them as i`m busy or in the case of the old guy with the golf club, he turned on me ! cheeky fecker...
