A lot of things happening this week, not a lot of releases across the consoles so it was a great week for catching up with those games that have came out over the past few weeks.
I have now finished just cause 2 and I wanted to share a few tips I picked up along the way.
The enemies in this game are dumb but the elites can hit a fly in the wings from two miles away so to avoid becoming a bullet riddled corpse the easiest thing to do is to use the roll button, during the roll animation you becoming invincible, so if you find yourself in a bit of a pickle you can roll continuously until you recover your health.
Enemies will not follow you into a building but rather congregate around the door, if you are in a situation where you feel outgunned , run into a nearby building if one is available and throw a grenade outside to thin the numbers.
Don't waste your money buying needless things from the black-market, you will find yourself quickly running low on funds, rather save the money for when you are desperate like an ammo refill for that rare gun you are using or for explosives like grenades.
Never dual wield 2 of the same gun, you do not increase your ammo count and it depletes twice as fast, I found a good combo to carry the submachine gun for groups and the sawed off shotgun for finishing enemy who get close.
Make the first gun you upgrade the SMG, it's the most common gun amongst the various enemies you will face and you will find yourself using it most often
Incapacitate enemies when you are facing many guards but don't bother trying to aim what your tethering them too because while you're trying this the enemy will be shooting you relentlessly rather just tether and go.
I hope these tips help anyone who is playing , they are pretty basic but I found them really helpful in many of the later missions, I have also wrote a review for the game which you can find here.
It's also been a great week for me here in the Gamespot community, I got the member spotlight for last week, which was awesome and I also took part in the community game night and had a ton of fun playing battlefield bad company on the 360 with Chris Watters and Shaun McInnis so I would like to throw out a big thank you too all the Gamespot staff for organising such a great night and to the other community members who took part.
On a last not don't forget to check out today on the spot not only is the episode hilarious but you also can get a sweet new emblem just for watching and commenting.
