Just tried it four times and couldn't do it. I was getting noticeably better, but it just wouldn't stop, and even the fourth go I was only on one or two percent left and he was still trumpeting "Nearly there! Just another minute!" for the umpteenth bloody time. It just felt horrible. Really had no sense I had the ability to precisely target the things at all.

Probably cos you're playing on hard the section rears its ugly head. I can imagine you're probably having to deal with more asteroids than I did on normal, if so then all I can say is good luck!Comment

Could be. Although it is interesting comparing them - a housemate of mine is playing catchup on Easy, and the enemy numbers so far hardly seem any different. Pickups, too. Might be more in places, though, I guess.Comment

Maybe the game is exactly the same except you just take alot more damage on hard, which would make the gun turret section next to imposible id imagine as it seemed like you took enough damage to JUST make it through on normal.Originally posted by Eight Rooks View PostComment

when you complete it can you start again and carry your stuff over?
I loved that in RE4, basically going through again super powered

EDIT: And enough about me - yes, you can do multiple playthroughs. Not sure if there's any point other than maxing out, but I'm sure it's possible; your save even has a round counter (or at least I think that's what it is).Comment

acording to reviews yes you can, though only on the difficulty you completed it on, much like RE4Comment

While you are at it, Why dont you just complain that the game requires you to use a joypad instead of your mind and have done with it?. Just a thought.Originally posted by Eight Rooks View PostScraped through the turret, into Chapter 5. Still kicking my ass. Running from the

No, you misunderstand. I understood, and I don't mind that stuff that much, I just don't think the game sets it up as well as it could do. I mean, CoD never really made me think "Oh my goodness how come the enemy soldiers never stop coming you'd think they were infinite or something that's not realistic how sad is that?" - the game was set up well enough I never complained about it. With Dead Space, how come at some points Zach and Kendra know exactly where you are and what you're doing and talk to you the second you pick something up off a desk, yet when you're

I know it's nit-picking, and I know I go on about the tiniest little thing. Still, the game's really good, good enough lazy design like this really stands out for me, and I just focus on the tiny little things because it could have been been a nine or ten on my scale if they'd just got a bit less lazy and stopped leaving them in everywhere. <shrugs>Comment

Picked this up yesterday, currently part way through Chapter 2 and I have to say it's pretty good. It reminds me a lot of Extermintion on the PS2. Sure it borrows a lot from other games, but it does it in a highly polished and fun way. I have encountered a glitch that caused me to fall out of a moving lift, but luckily I didn't have to track back too far.Comment

Had a good ole long session on this last night, got through 6 chapters in 6 hours, about the longest I have actually sat down and played a game recently just really caught my attention.
Loving it so far, think I may have got to the ammo limit and possible may end up struggling from here on in though. The plot has been padding out nice and slowly, the interface/hud is very cool, only thing I am currently fearing is the possiblity of re-treading old ground in later levels just with new enemies in it, we shall see though.
Just to not you can download FREE Elite Suit from MS marketplace (dunno if its on PSN? maybe Marketplace promo item as it's green and called Elite.) that gives you a level 5 suit with all inventory slots, so very handy from the start and it costs 0 in the shop.
A good free unlock from EA

I'm at Chapter 4 and still loving this. Just upgraded to Level 3 suit which is a real help, as you have to be very strategic over what items to bin and what to take with you, then back track and fill your boots after an encounter.
The influences in the game have been discussed, I am getting Doom3, System Shock, Bioshock, Resi 4,Aliens vs Predator (Jaguar), Dark Sector, Quake4 and Mass Effect vibes. I do think the game has also tried to innovate. The fact each monster has a weak spot that must be "Decapitated" means the difference between 3 shots and 7, keeps comabt fun. The 3D GUI is fantastic and keeps the player immersed in the game world.
The guns are pretty cool tool, and the second fire modes are interesting.
It must also be said, I think the lighting and sound effects are amongst the best I've ever experienced.
So, I'm 1 third done, and the game is so far one of my best experiences of 2008.
