In today's episode, Erin learns the true meaning of what Barret had to go through in FF7 when they sneaked up the fire escape of the Shinra tower.

P.S. Thanks

I'm glad Rad is able to recognize all the warning signs.
All? I only saw one - crappy red lighting. Which is hardly a warning sign in my book. Nowerdays, it's more of a sign of "the devs wanted to create some horror atmosphere, so they just made all the lights not work anymore"

Lack of enemies and tons of equipment? That's a warning sign. One that's about a subtle as a sledgehammer (or guitar) to the head is a "subtle tab to the head", but a sign non the less...

At least you're physically moving with little to no load times... Just imagine taking the elevator... Sure, it's "quicker", but the only reason why you can't do anything in said elevator is because of the next section loading at the time...

Other than that, where's the battery/laser/guitar drops when you need them? Because those stairs didn't have any...

I'm guessing since this is a Boss Fight the next comic will have the alien bust out with some POD songs rather than Creed. :p

Strangely, I don't remember a whole lot of proper Boss Fight sequences from the first 3 HALO games, at least with a king's ransom of weapons and ammo in front of the boss's room. I do remember playing co-op and getting randomly warped away from where I was while the next section was loading, which I found very disorienting.

But I like P.O.D.! Haven't heard anything new from them on over a decade, though.

Glad I wasn't the only one that thought of that. The comic sorely missed a reference to that.

Ok, some of the warning signs.

Those thongs are so small.... It really makes me question their male hood.... or ponder their female hood.
Huh. And here I am, constantly wondering about that weird belt thingy Erin has. At the front, some small plate hangs down in a rather ineffectual manner. (is that supposed to protect something?)
Meanwhile, from behind, there's absolutely nothing at all protecting anything... >_>

At the very least, I don't get the feeling that armour was designed with women in mind. XD

Oh, they're still around. In fact I'm pretty sure they've got a new album coming in a month.

A young female surrounded by three muscular aliens... Well good luck with that. :)
Honestly the way you phased that made it sound more like porno music is gonna start playing in the next comic.
