Most stores get the product on the day of release or at most a day early depending on your status as a retailer. We certainly never got very early releases in the days we were a top 100 Nintendo dealer. |

As for your thought track, actually I was saying there's more chance of being banned for going on line before release date with a copy, the chances of being banned drop if you wait surely, well unless part of the NXE has updated checking controls which I doubt as you would be hearing about blanket bans galore. |
Getting a game early does not violate the XBL terms of agreement, most people who are banned were banned before there was stealth firmware, I don't recall any banning waves after the release of iXtreme 1.5, even though a lot of people play downloaded games early.

For those that have tried online co-op, could you describe what the experience is like in greater detail? I'm curious to know if it entails progressing through campaign missions together (e.g. Halo 3), or is it closer to horde mode in Gears of War 2, or some other variation?

I was really suprised that it actually worked with my old flashed hitachi drive. Used a philips DL dvdr, burned 4x speed. Great game and works like a charm so far.

Alright, attempt number 2. Realised that when the giant axe wielding mofo shows up the gate that was previously closed is now open, had alot more room to move around. Still, no point in killing anything (though I did my best anyway) as there's no ammo to speak of. Tried to kill the axe dude with little success. Somehow managed to S rank it on normal.
Chapter 2 is muuuch better. No more zombie swarms so you can take the time to get familiar with the controls, made it 1000 times more enjoyable. Managed to A rank it (didn't kill enough zombeez, and I took too long killing the boss. Asshole doors took to long to close and he just walked out).
I'm a little more comfortable with it. Not being able to strafe while running is a pain in the ass, and seriously, who would walk in this kind of situation? Oh well. Ammo is far to scarce for my liking, but I guess that's why this is "survival horror" and not "fps #1747362".

To kill the giant axe dude easier, you need to shoot him until he trembles down on his knee (shoot him a couple times in the head), then run up to him before he stands up, and press X to hit him, those hits, cause A SHITLOAD of damage, especially on stronger enemies, like the axe dude. You can do this on normal zombies too, and it's actually very good way of conserving ammo, as usually, they die from one hit, and if they don't, just run up and press X on their body before they start rising up, and you'll hit them again.
Also, about the door that your char opened to slowly. Press X two times instead of just one time, and he'll kick open the door, much faster and also pushes back enemies on the other side of the door.
Yeah, the ammo is always lacking, until you get more weapons. Just remember to always try and shoot them in the head, it makes all the difference. One headshot, run up, kick them.  |
lulz he abandoned this game because the axe man killed him 
don't tell him about the gigantic cockroaches then or those BIG SURPRISE zombies with those tentacle stuff when you pop their heads .... ops hahaha *imaging now how he will destroy this disc after those will kill him a few hundred times*

I recommend this over fear. My reasoning is that even if you beat it, you might play through it again for the extra content like clothing and weapons.

lulz yur reeding compreehenshun is impeckabel
Listen tool, or rather pay attention to the words on the screen. I'm not done with this game yet. I don't recall saying anything about abandoning it. I put it aside last night because it still has bullshit RE controls, and I picked it up again today (see that part where I said I'm on me second attempt?) Also note that I said I beat the first two sections on chapter one, see clearly I'm learning my way around the controls. Even S ranked the first section.
That aside, thank you Yondaime for your post. It's nice to see some people still have manners. As for the door, I was referring to the (sub?)boss when you meet up with Alpha Team, the giant worm thing. It slowed me down because the doors to the blast furnace don't shut as soon as you pull the lever so I had to run the bitch around a second time, otherwise I'm sure my time on that section would have been better. Thank you for the tip on the doors though. It hadn't really bothered me about how doors open, but that kick open options will be cool! With a control stick and wierd laser pointer aiming (so used to crosshairs) it's a chore to aim for the head. How do you get the X to kick option to show up more? Do you need to inflict a certain amount of damage, or is it something else?
Anyway, appreciate the help. It's frustrating to pick up a new game and have it shit so thoroughly down your throat. Fortunately those are usually the best ones  Spiderman, grow the fuck up, 'kay? Maybe if you were more coherent you'd take the time to post how to beat those hidden tentacle worm jack in the box thingies, instead of being a total jackass trying to be cool on the internet. No, on second thought, keep it up. Who else would there be to entertain me?

 Spoiler: | if it's the part where jill is there too, just survive, until there is a cutscene where he kicks you through the dorr, then hide in the rooms there.
when he is walking arround you can try and shoot him but I guess you just have to survive for 7 minutes |

ok i have alittle problem with the last boss fight in co-op. i Dont know how to make a spoiler thingy so...
SPOILER ALERT!!!
with the last boss, sheeva has to do a QTE(quick time event) where she has to pres X and climb up the rocks.
WHatever we do, she just falls off, everytime. We can press X as hard and fast as we want, she just falls off.
What are we doing wrong? why doesnt the QTE work? can someone solve this please, because the game is a masterpiece and i cant stand it that i cant finnish it in co-op. i'm even starting to believe its a bug:S
