Just started playing this. Surprisingly enjoyable considering i've not liked any of the previous games.


Good call Alex.

You two should get together and do the co-op missions..

Me and Hollywooda had a brilliant time doing them.

Has anyone tried to co-op in split-screen? Are there any framerate issues, is it any harder to see what's going on?

I've played through a few levels of this. I'm on a level in a car park and it's as irritating as anything. One tiny slip and it's instant fail. :evil:

Lol.. Me and Hollywooda where on that bit for ages.. then he had to go and see to his kid and I found (after about 20 attempts a perfect route through on my own.. waited at the end (where there's a handy screen projected onto the end wall) and then talked him through my route. Good times.

That's good to know, actually ... I'll just have to be a bit more patient and just see if I can climb/duck/sneak my way through it.

EDIT: Done it, and what's next? Another trial-and-error passage of play to get into the Third Echelon building past closing doors and guards. And I have to watch the conversation with the secretary every time I get it wrong, which is a lot of times so far. This game is pure masochism.

Finished.

Somehow or other it's an addictive game despite being annoying at times, and the ending is good. It is quite satisfying to outwit the enemies - if you get it wrong you're almost always swarmed by enemies and you're dead meat. But it is also very frustrating, so it's worthwhile having something to kick nearby (something soft like a beanbag is ideal ...!)
