DO IT! You're primary method of rapid transit is sliding along the ground, because you have ROCKETS attached to your HIPS.Weresquirrel said:Might pick this up. I missed the boat on the original release, but I have enough confidence in Platinum's ability to make a stylish as hell spectacle.
ROCKET. HIPS.
Also it's wonderfully cheesey and arcadey all throughout and has a kickass soundtrack (at least for the purposes of the game). It's tough, but with a low (ish) skill floor and a high skill ceiling. Just like most of Platinum's games.
Protip: weapon upgrades hold over between deaths, and they only upgrade if you have full ammo when you find one on the ground, or if you find an upgrade power up. If you get stuck on the last boss you can use this to your advantage because a fully upgraded rocket launcher will mess him up, and there's a couple laying around you can reliably get to before he kills you.
... or maybe not. I haven't played it in years. I just remember that being a thing.
