    Patience grasshopper patience!

    Not joking either. I actually had to maneuver to the opposite side & back due to Dom's dumbness, before I finally took him down. Actually I just left Dom slumped over in a corner instead of trying to revive him. Just remember to unload on his arse when those pitch black creatures move away from him.

    Trust me with patience you'll get him!

      I absolutely can't wait to face him on Insane. He was hard enough on Hardcore.

        Torque Bow him in the head, the bats aka shield drops, and then snab a head shot with the sniper rifle. Be VERY aware of the reavers--contrary to YouTube vids, you have to be extremely lucky to kill him from that first piece of cover on Hardcore and Insane.

        Also, practice your active reloads, and keep in mind that the bats won't destroy you while you reload from cover.

            I haven't got the CC ad yet but on a site posted on here by someone else it said $44.99, not $49.99.

            Also, i've gotten past the bats and i'm at this gas station now. Some guy tells me to fuel it up and get the heck outta there but I can't figure out what to do. Could someone help a guy out here?

              You have to turn the wheel to fill the truck with fuel (just follow the hose from the truck and you should find it). Once that is done some bad guys will show up and you have to duke it out for a while then you hop of the truck and it goes into the driving/light shining sequence.

              I'm up to the exact same spot as you and did that a few hours ago.

              I'm still loving this game and i'd go as far to say as it's one of my all time favourites! I love the whole cover and tactics required and multiplayer is a blast as well.

                Make sure you do it in the right order. Talk to the guy, fuel the truck, then go inside to get the ammo, fight the bad guys, then you'll be set. I was playing co-op and a friend went inside and got ammo while I was fueling and that screwed it up...bad guys never came so we had to do it again.

                    I just got the game finally yesterday from Buy.com

                    My buddy came over and we played 5-6 hours yesterday and 3-4 today finishing the whole thing. Awesome experience that I plan on doing at least one more time. (Insane?!) I can't imagine playing this game alone though, if you haven't yet, you HAVE to try coop.

                      I was just wondering if anyone could tell me if you can play with two people on the same console online.

                      EX: My friend and I play online together on my 360...

                      I am getting this game for xmas as well as xbox live so I hope I see some of you guys on there.

                        Here are the things you can so on the same console:

                        1) coop, split screen with a guest account
                        2) mutiplayer - both players must have a xbox live account
                        - example: if your friend is on your console, he needs to recover his xbox live gamertag on your console in order to do split screen online.

                          aww i see...and i take it that you cant get 2 different accounts from the same purchase?...

                          say i purchase a year of xbox live..thats only one account right?

                          wait..so he can play online with me but as a guest? and only on my team?

                            hey guys.. i just rented this game.

                            what a game at that. im usually not much into these games because they require quite the time and effort but i'm addicted.

                            this puts any yearly sports title to shame.

                            why cant sports titles build a game taking 4-5 years which includes everything from the past 5 years invloving old and new arenas, jerseys, court patterns, and then just release a game. IMO there hasnt been a helluva lot of progress since nba 2k2 as far as im concerned.

                            enough about that.. i have a question regarding sound... im playing on some small computer speakers and the sound is quite nice. whats it like on Dolby Digital 5.1 or 7.1?

                              GOW is easily the best game on any console, handheld or PC in 2006!

                              GOW will easily overtake the Halo series & become the new face for XBOX 360!

                              Marcus Fenix would 0wn Master Chief 1-on-1!

                              What a great game & I love the Co-op feature, especially online over XBOX Live!

                                I get my 360 back today, so I can finally finish this game. I was on Act 4 two weeks ago, when my system brokedown. Can't wait to play, again.
