Mine glitched once: after killing millions of the Russian dude's minions in what seemed like the longest battle EVER, then those extra blue dudes turn up flinging resin bombs at you - well after I'd killed them the game froze and I was all flustered. Had to switch the console off and reboot. Anyway, turns out it had managed to sneakily autosave somewhere along the way and I didn't have to go through that hell all over again.

That was the only glitch I found in the whole game.

The autosave is good innit. It rarely throws you back too far.

I'm actually quite impressed by the way it appears to make some stuff progressively easier if you keep fucking it up.

Exactly the same thing happened to me - was it in the temple bit right at the end?

The final fight took me about fifty attempts. I was about to give up!

The resin bomb blue dudes are a piece of piss. They stand still for ages while they're "wanging their resin" so you can just grenade them.

Yeah but when

crazy russian dude starts drinking the resin and chasing you around

it suddenly gets quite difficult. I didn't get stuck on any other bit of the game, just the very last section.

Yep. The Russian's dudes just keep coming in waves, and I'm running out of ammo/guns, and they keep on coming. Then more blue dudes turn up (who, admittedly, are easy enough to dispatch at the end of the fight). The fact that battle with the unending militia was so long meant I was freaking out for a few minutes while I waiting for the console to load back up wondering if I'd have to do the whole thing all over again

If you just keep running, and running, and running, you shouldn't keep dying. Okay, so I played on a rather easy difficulty setting, but still

Timing when to turn back and shoot the resin without him suddenly grabbing you and beating the shit out of you was irksome. Also, where did he keep getting all his grenades from? Cheeky bastard.

And more to the point, why did I keep jumping down a massive hole?

But at least you could climb back out, right? I don't think there were any un-get-out-able holes in that final showdown bit. Amirite?

 

[cliche guevara]

No, there was one big, obvious hole of doom, which I leapt into time after time.

 

[Vintage Paw]

Dude, everyone knows to avoid the big, obvious hole of doom.
