Almost wish I didn't buy this game. It makes everything else I have look so ugly. I haven't played CS:S since it came out.

There is a 'bug' where sometimes he dosen't bother coming close to you. You can try lobbing some nades at him (just looking all the way up and blind lobbing nades works the same as using aim) to knock him down a bit. You can try hiding behind the 2 square concrete slabs in the center when he does decide to come around. Then just circle around the trashbin back to the guard concrete. I think it's a lot safer than running from one guard piece to the other one across the map.

Anyway it's still somewhat easier when you do co-op, it only took like 20 tries. :D

Dont worry, the CE comes in quite possibly the WORST case known to man. Double the size of a normal tin, no ACTUAL DVD box, just a bit of card with two disks on it, and the plastic sleave around the box is to big for the metal case...

BTW from memory, I dont THINK there are any achievments for doing the game on insane...

In other words I think its a coop only job for me. Good job I played through on hardcore first time, you get the hardcore AND the casual points.

To tell the truth, I haven't had the time to pop the extra DVD in :D I've been playing the actual game to much lol... I've had two days off, and they have fucking gone mate, I've been stuck on this. No time for a life when Gears is out :D

Tin is cool, but yeah the plastic sleeve isnt very tight. The insert that holds the dvd is kinda cheap...Im assuming its meant to stay in the bottom of the tin there is only print on one side...the back is just plain white. The art book tells the story behind the game. I havnt watched the making yet either. I dont regret buying the CE.


Odium...there are points for insane. 30 for each act.

Just did it, damn, what a fuckin rush that last act was... Insane...

Ending was as per usual, not a great deal worth it... But at least we know this isn't the last time we walk with the Gears...

EDIT: What the fucks with this rap/dance music bollocks? I was just getting into the piano theme then...
