I actually figured out the problem its when you use the continue button on the title screen, if you press load game it works fine.

I'm getting it now. If it's as good as some of you say it is, Microsoft made a bad move by not publishing this game.
Also, any good Live additions to warrant buying the retail? or just Live Aware?

although ea has just started supporting live, i havent read about any live additions, but i could definately be wrong. i wonder why microsoft didnt publish this, was it due to munch's sales? The hell with what everyone else thinks, that game was one of my fav xbox titles. Its ashame that they didnt make the game they were originally planning on, it had to do with a mudoken and a boat. im not kidding. i even had a art clipping of it.

actually kryon, it is xbox only. ea scrapped the ps2 version due to it not making the deadline for release. they wanted to release them simultaneously but stated the only way the ps2 one would of gotten released was months away, so xbox only.


I ment Mercenaries being not an Xbox only title mate.
Think about how much more they could do with it without coding it to the PS2 as well... OMG, i''ve bcame an Xbox snob Razz

yes it happened to me also once, but worked fine to load instead of continue.

next time i tried continue it worked.

dont know why this is. maybe continue only works with the games own saves and not personal saves. dont know though, just an idea, might be wrong.

been playing pretty much all day now, and the game just keeps getting better. love the evironment. a bit wiered to think that its part of the oddworld-universe, but who cares? it works and its really cool. Smile

Can't you just use enigma to switch to NTSC if it doesn't?

this game is alot of planning, much like the original oddworlds except this time ur attacking and not sneaking. learn the squirrel spider technique and master it. that or the fuzzle and zapbugs. dont always capture enemies alive, more money may be better but if u need to stay alive kill them

[SPOILER BELOW]








I'm at the part where your in the town with the green Abe-like characters and they give you the new armor. A few levels back I was able to buy the sniper ammo but it never showed up in my inventory and I still haven't been able to use it. When will I be able to use the sniper ammo?

I'm using a font hack, so no chip for me, just a software mod.

Using the original versions 4074 or something.

I would be tempted to update the bfm bios to 4983, or Evox's m8

also change to the latest version of PBL (or whatever bios loader you are using) just to rule out it being a bfm issue, it wouldnt be the first time but they are incredibly rare.

I haven't updated bios in a while. I used xFer to unpack (which patches on the fly), then burned with another game onto a custom Avalaunch disk. Looking for Eugenious, and just finished jo momma!

Sadly I do not know how to do ANY of that, I tried to read up, but it only confused me. Too many guides were just like "connect to xbox live to update" well.. I do not have a stupid xbox live game. Wink

I don't know how to go about updating all the crap without crashing my software mod. I'd REALLY hate to have to do the harddrive swap again to get the font hack back on there.. Razz

i beat the game and it was great.

maybe a little bit too much action towards the end though.

it would be nice if there was succesive play or something like that. i would have loved to play it thru again, but with upgraded weapons from the start.

maybe there will be a cheat later or something.

Can you estimate how much time you spent beating it? Maybe in hours? Cheers...
