When James disappeared during that first encounter with the Phantoms, I was half-inclined to believe he'd jumped into a taxi to ram the platform.
Also, all joking aside, Thane's passing has wrecked me once again. What a send-off. Also, the line about how Leng should be embarrassed honestly makes me feel a little better about his inclusion. Adds a little texture to the circumstance of a beloved character getting offed by a...not-so-beloved character.
@rorie: Seems alright from where I'm sitting! And big thanks to yourself and the crew for keeping up the Quick Looks despite the general difficulties in doing so.
I was literally about to comment, 'that's what Busta gets for 'Halloween Resurrection'!' before Alex brought it up!
On the topics of fighting, Busta Rhymes and the 'Halloween' franchise, I've always found it funny that 'Resurrection''s most infamous scene near the end - Busta's Kung-Fu showdown against Michael - actually gets set up beforehand, with Busta's character appreciating some Kung-Fu movies in his hotel room. The sincerity of that gesture towards an internal logic for the film adds to the hilarity of it all for me.
@tarmander: The twitching gets me, too. Reminds me of too many wrestling accidents.
On a slightly brighter note, it really demonstrates how the little details beside graphical fidelity (or otherwise) count, you know? The kind of thing I love about games, even if this particular detail makes me wince.
I'm fairly sure Lil' Kim would mop the floor with Carmen Electra, in 2004 or any year. As an aside, I wonder how they determined the stats in this game for the celebrities, e.g. who's fastest, who can walk off a piledriver, etc.
Excellent series so far, all!
Edit: As a fan of the 'Hitman' series, the bar fights are giving me flashbacks to that stupid sequence in 'Absolution' where you have to quick-time-event your way across the floor towards the bartender (somewhat-scuzzy-looking visuals included.)
