Every Game shop I popped into over the last couple of days has it in on their chart, its about 16th so you have to have a look near the bottom. www.game.co.uk

I used Mordecal - it's fun watching people's head getting blown off at range Plus the Eagle is useful for softening up

mordecal is insanely easy to use - especially end game if you take the "bypass shields" skill - where oddly most mobs have high shields & no hp.

Fun game, started the second playthrough - got bored. Went to play BF BC2 - which is very good.

I used Lillith/Siren for my first play through on the 360, i thought she was a bit pants, on the pc i used the soldier with the turret and it seamed a bit better.

The Zombie Ssland DLC is pretty good, not played the other ones yet.

I made some kids cry on the 360 version

Joined a game, ran over to where they were, to find a huge pile of guns on the floor, i had my headset switched off, but i heard one of them say "somebody's coming pick them all up"

I walk over and just look at them, maybe they were suckered in by the female character? but i heard them say in voice chat ..

"right sticky, we are looking at his guns, DO NOT TRY TO DO ANYTHING FUNNY"

I do nothing.....

"i dont trust her, she looks shifty"
"sticky if you can hear us DO NOT TRY ANYTHING FUNNY"

so i made my character look at the floor then the sky to simulate nodding.

"she can HEAR US"
"do you understand us?"

Again with the simulated nodding

"you wont try anything funny now?"

Que simulated head shaking at this point i was almost crying with laughter, the chap gets his guns out.

"check this one out, its awesome, its an elephant gun!"

You can guess what happened next
Ran over like a whippet and started grabbing as many as possible.


"NNNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO OOOOOOOOOO"
