I'm up to chapter 9 in the Evil Within now and although I'm really enjoying it, that fucking arsehole who can kill you with one hit keeps randomly showing up now and it's really pissing me off.


Ah, the Mansion? Yeah you have to play tag until he disappears. But what is annoying is the mid level boss in Chapter 10. She is a bitch to take down! You may breeze it, but I am really struggling.
Here is my top tip for beating her (just done it) when you enter each section where you need to pull the large lever, she takes a few seconds to appear, so use tbat time to pull the lever first to give it enough time for the flames to vanish. Then concentrate on shooting those switches above to blast the flames down on her. That way she gets stunned and gives you those vital seconds while you wait for the flames to disappear.

Then the final section of room, just run around in circles as you aren't meant to kill her :) and it was a bastard to do, but nothing compared to the final boss of that chapter. The one thing I hate is making bosses have almost one hit kills, and giving you nowhere near enough ammo.

My tip for him, run and shoot but don't aim with the left trigger, just shoot, shoot, shoot as you always hit him anyway when shooting "from the hip"

Ah cheers retro, so the fight will time out then? She is a royaaaaal pain. I had flicked all the switches and inflicted as much damage as possible - i.e. match torched the corpses as she spawned out of them, plus shooting the levers to pour flames/lava on her, grenades, shot gun, the works - all to no avail.

I'll try again later should I be able to tear myself away from GTA ;-)

We really need to meet up on GTAV bro...I'm trying to get a guy at work who's Level 60+ on his PS3 to splash out on a PS4!

Indie: yeah don't waste a single shot on her at all. Just use those flame vent things and in the last room there are two large fireplace like parts on each side where flames come out of and stop you running around the pillars in front of them. Just wait for the last wall of flames to die down when you have shot the valve for it and a cut scene takes over as you pass through it. And trust me you need that ammo. I've just been doing some lengthy sections with barely any pick ups at all.

Some of the texture work in GTA is fantastic. Fucked up though, as a lot of people I usually play online with have all bought the PS4 version the basket cases :)

I'm sure they have ramped up the difficulty in Far Cry as well. I'm still near the beginning of the game and have had a hard time with some missions.

I'm really passing time now though until Dragon Age unlocks tomorrow as it really is something special. I have tried to limit myself with the EA Access trial so that I can really get my teeth into it over the weekend.

Cheers mate. You know what, I think the mistake I have made is only shooting the three valve levers upstairs. If there is more than two downstairs, I'm either missing some more or dieing before the wall of flames disappears! Thanks for the tip bro. Will try later! :-)

Evil Within all done and dusted :) even with the janky camera, controls and down right hideously hard parts, I really enjoyed it. It opens up a new game plus when you have finished with some interesting weapons. May well give it a second run at some point

Dragon Age: Inquisition. ..this is absolutely amazing. Gorgeous graphics, interesting story, great character models/outfits, and a massive world to explore. It really is fantastic. There are a ton of things to do and I can believe the claims that there is something like 200 hours of gameplay here. Best RPG I have played in a long time.

Played a whole load more of Far Cry 4, and am absolutely loving it.

Hunting animals using a gyrocopter is the bomb - brilliant world, and totally lethal indigenous wildlife!

Im loving the gyrocopter as well, but if I'm honest I think they give you access to it a little too early. If I use it I find myself flying to the next mission and missing a lot of the things I'd get involved in if I were walking or driving.

I am very tempted to get a copy of FC4, but it fear it's too much open world for me, on top of GTA5. I do prefer the structure of a nice linear game; with the exception of Dark Souls. Talking of which, they're doing Dark Souls 2 for PS4 - when will these remasters ever end!
