I lose interest if I get killed every few minutes over and over again.

Some of the "boss" battles are freaking hard.

Poor diddums :lol: Some bits have been rather tricky but all the more satisfying when you do finally kill them without resorting to lowering the difficultly to 'big girls blouse' :) I'm nearly finished it now and then intend to get stuck into Bulletstorm which looks like a good laugh

I've just started my second play through, turned the difficulty up a notch but finding it easier this time.

For the final boss fight I managed to end up in a situation where I was armed only with the plasma cutter (18 shots) and line gun (2 shots). Took me a good few attempts to get past!

How the hell are you supposed to play it with only 3 saves? It's a 10-12 hour game on the easier settings?!

Four hours at a time? I'm going to give it a go but will need to plan the day well in advance!

I dont think I could ever play a computer game for 4 solid hours.

And that's going to go up on Hardcore, I was basing my game time on easier settings :shock:

Don't turn the console off. Chuck the game in pause and turn the TV off when you go to bed.

I do this a lot with games that put you back too far when you save, makes life a bit easier. Currently got Fable 3 running on my 360, guess it's been on non-stop for about 10 days now.

Had three 360s, never had a single RROD yet. Although that's only because I replaced them when they started getting flaky and never got to the point of no return! :lol:

The current one is well ventilated and leaving it on has got to be better than heat cycling all the components with on and offs. Same reason I leave all my PCs on 24/7 too.
