I just found out that beating it on Hard doesnt give you the Epic achievement... theres a 4th difficulty you get when you beat it. Doy.

Oh well, will do Hard anyway

Seriously? I have made it to level 4 on hard, but have been contemplating starting a new game because of the dlc armor that I equipped right away and apparently can't change. Whoever thought that would be a good idea should be sterilized

Beat the game on medium.  Took 7 hrs and 15 minutes.  Definitely GOTY material.  Only things I didn't like were
spoiler (click to show/hide)
asteroid shooting and escorting that pylon thing in Chapter 12.  The ending made me jump, too :o

How do you beat that giant monster in Chapter 4? The hulk looking one. I must have shot it 70 times in the back...

Oh well, gives me a reason to take a break

Stasis it, run behind it and shoot. If you shoot it enough while it's in stasis, it will kind of curl up and you can run around and shoot it some more. I don't know why it's not dying if you are already shooting it in the back. Maybe it doesn't work if you don't stasis it first?

They should have really made the telekinesis (i know its not psychic but) abilities more useful against enemies. I was at the part where the girl is hacking the door for you and you get attacked, but I was out of Plasma Cutter ammo (cant use any other guns for achievement), and all I had left was a little tentacle baby on the wall. Couldnt do anything with my Stasis and Kinesis abilities. I should be able to take my Kinesis and slam them against the wall.

Play-Asia says my copy of this will ship on November 4th.

I'm no mathematician since I don't understand Reaganomics, but an order placed early on the 20th arriving on the 4th looks A LOT like 15 days; and I can't tell if the thing is shipping then, or planned to arrive by then. In any case, I'm sad.

This game was awesome.  I honestly think that if this game was Resident Evil 5: Space reviewers would have given it scores in the high 9s.  There are hardly any flaws to the game and it is a standout game.  EA :bow2

I think the game drags on in the later half. It's like, I'm just doing stuff just to move on. There's no sense of urgency or danger. But I just found the Marker and when all those monsters and the tentacle appear I'm like WTF!!!!!! cause its hard, lol.

I just looked at gamerankings and most of the reviews are 9/10 and above.  I'm really glad the game is getting the recognition it deserves, and I hope plenty of review score junkies pick it up.

The game only dragged for me in chapters 11 and 12, but those were quick chapters.

And I would honestly buy a full game based on z-ball.

If you focus on just one weapon (the plasma cutter for the achievement), you can sell ammo from the other guns and get easier money. Don't buy Nodes unless you have some extra padding money. Dont buy air canisters, I've never had to use one. Always carry at least 1 node, in case you come across a room that requires it (those rooms have lots of goodies)
