The Far Cry 2 one was so obviously going to go tits up that I actually chose to let them die anyway-which is rare for me(saving the kids that is).
Dino Crisis is the one that I have stuck most in my mind. After that any game where you look for key cards AT ALL is auto failed in my book. Having said that if Capcom want to get round me(after RUINING RE5 so badly)a new Dino Crisis would be a great place to start.
Dammit,GR. I was planning to play Bioshock. There's no reason for that anymore, I guess since u completely ruined the whole game for me.But gr8 article anyway.LOLED at the Resident Evil mission
how about the survivors on Dead Rising. Particularly the achievement for having 8 people and/or 8 females to follow you. The survivor AI is poor so it almost always goes down the pan.
Yeah, I don't know if this was added in after...but...for those of you bitching that GR ruined games for you? There's a SPOILER ALERT at the beginning of the article.
What about in RE 4? The call back to the president..."Uhhm...yeah, Mr. President? Yeah, hey it's Leon. Uhm...I've got some bad news, and promise that you won't be mad, but Ashley won't be coming home. See they tied her up, and there were these guys all around her--and gee, who would have thought that a shot to the pinky finger would have killed her? Not mad, are ya?"
all metal gear solid people know that the foxdie virus is inside of snake, but you notice otacon is completely immune to it somehow, also raiden somehow doesn't get infected. is it because it targets specific people or what? i never understood that. how does any guard survive after making contact with snake and finally meryl survives contact with him? all in all, good article.
Not really sure that Bioshock and Metal Gear Solid should really count.
@ phoenix_wings very nice - made me chuckle.
@ linkganon yes, the foxdie virus was supposed to only target specific people - It was also supposed to kill Snake but backfired and killed Liquid instead.
*spoilers for Tales of Vesperia!* Hey, wait a minute! What about operation: "Run around like an idiot and get blown away and lose your airship instead of saving your healer" as seen in Tales of Vesperia? You know, that 8-10 hours of plot where you go through about 4 different dungeons, one of which is a decoy by your enemy to delay you even longer, then you lose your airship and have to hoof it through an ice cap (3rd dungeon) then climb a big ass tower (4th) all to save your healer? I thought that would be here!
Ok, GR, of all people, I'd think you knew that Atlas' "wife and son" don't exist. Remember *spoiler* when you find out Atlas is really Frank Fontaine and he laughs and tells you how gullible you were and then he mocks you with his 'Irish' voice? So that part of it shouldn't be in this article unless you reword it and explain that they aren't real.
Actually, the SAS was created in 1941, disbanded in 1945, and then the Artists Rifles regiment was formed into the nucleus of the SAS we know in 1947.
The US Marines, on the other hand, trace their heritage back almost 200 years earlier: on November 10, 1775, the Continental Congress signed legislation authorizing the formation of two battalions of Marines to serve on Continental Navy vessels.
Your statement was quite ballsy: "SAS" stands for "Special Air Service", and the USMC pre-dates airborne combat by more than a century.
