[quote name='decrot']Ghost squad was strangely hard to get for me. I had to drive to another state to get it (well it was only 20 miles away). But all the stores within a 10 mile radius; about 20 stores, didn't carry ghost squad for some reason.
anyway, ghost squad was really easy, the extras are really fun. Like you can shoot bikini chicks with a water gun or you can throw stars at ninjas
cant tell you about house of the dead 2 and 3, but they are both available on amazon.com. HotD is only 20 bucks too.[/QUOTE]
[quote name='mephitical']Ghost Squad is the game for you - it's very easy and just fun for the most part, and there are unlimited continues. It does get harder as you unlock more (there's a lot to unlock), but that just means you die more and have to continue. I highly recommend it - it's fun alone and with multiple players.
HOTD is fun, but much harder, and you have to unlock more continues, so you'll find yourself playing through the first portion a lot until you get better at it.[/QUOTE]
[quote name='typeRJ']second that.
Ghost Squad
-fun and pretty easy
-up to 4 players.
-it has action sequences that are a nice change of pace from the shoot everything mentality. like you disarm mines by pressing the A button repeatedly, try to knife/punch someone by moving a knife icon into the right spot.
-more than one path in each stage, so you'll want to replay the stages again to test them out.
-tons to unlock, from guns to random modes that change all the enemies to girls in bikinis and shooting them w/ water guns...yeah Paradise Mode!
HOTD 2 & 3
-pretty hard but fun at the same time, gets easier as you lose and they give you more continues
-2 players max
-straight ports of the arcade shooters. i guess it's fun to see what happens if you take different paths.
-not much to unlock really...
compared to RE:UC, those two games are much easier because they're arcade games. RE:UC tries to recreate the RE experience as an on-rails shooter with all the usual RE elements so that's why it's a harder game.
i also have Medal of Honor: Heroes 2, but it's still sealed. the FPS mode won't be what you're looking for, but i think it has an arcade mode that's on rails. can't say it's gonna be easier than HOTD, but it might be enjoyable enough.[/QUote]
Thanks guys! Sounds great. I'll pick it up if it's cheap enough.
Am I right in assuming the "zapper" piece of plastic is worthless for it?
I was going to say the RE games are balanced much better than that shooter, but come to think of it, I only play the Resident Evil games on "easy", or else they're way too hard for me also. (IMO they're broken on the "normal" American difficulty level, but I suppose lots of people like them that way).
