: I'm sort of half blargh on the XBLA graphics. The wall textures and placed
: objects like lights and such are very nice, but the weapon in hand sprites
: I'm meh about (trigger on finger during pistol reload is a no-no), and the
: monster sprites are just flat out goddamn awful. Fortunately, Perseus made
: an HD Scenery plugin that lets you have the nice XBLA textures and
: scenery sprites without the craptastic monster sprites. Good job on that
: too, Perseus. :)
Nice one PS! I like the Pfhor graphics for the most part, especially the F'lckta, but the Hunters are not right. As for the weapons, I don't like how tall the AR is drawn, but other than that I'm a fan. Never noticed the finer details of reloading and such :).
: You don't need to waste a grenade and your shields to get on the submerged
: lift leading to the secret door. Just stand in the pool facing the lift
: and then sidestep-run back onto the dry walkway, then before you lose your
: loft from leaving the water, all in one smooth motion, rotate right and
: continue to sidestep-run up onto the ledge surrounding the lift.
Yeah, I've never managed to get that sidestep-running thing to be my friend, and anyway, after running all around a level like this, sometimes you just want to grenade yourself in the face!
Great to see so much discussion here, hopefully it continues with the series :D.
