Breakdown (Xbox)
Play on Easy. Normal mode is roughly comparable with Halo on Legendary. Hard mode is for masochists. Easy is roughly comparable to what Normal should be.

Are you serious? This game is not that hard.

I think if you did a survey of people that have played the game, most would say that they either quit early on or struggled to get through the early parts. I had to get really really frustrated, quit, and then go back to playing again three times to get past the part with the two guys in the smoke-filled hall. On easy.

Wow. That's pretty early.

I know the part you mean though, and it is pretty tough, but doable. I can see how people could really get put off, but that's an unusual difficulty spike in an otherwise average difficulty game, in my opinion.

How far did you get? The very last section is pure bullshit Lets throw tons of enemies at you in waves, two heavies, two regular guys, and two laser arms . Pure bullshit.

It was hard but that section put it in a whole new difficulty.

I beat it.

How? I can't beat it on easy even after trying for two months! :smith:

Um...I dunno, I just did. I recall the hardest parts being the hallway on fire where you have to melee fight the aliens the first time and some room towards the end with several guys to fight. I think the latter I solved by slowing down time and abusing the neck snap move. The last boss took a few tries but I don't recall thinking he was impossible.
