    Sounds extremely similar to what I was going through using an NG+

    May just man up and push through it.

    The enemies scale to your level.

    So they're going to be a pain in the ass no matter what level you are.

    It's just that hopefully with an NG+ you got your hands on the appropriate skills/weaponry to offset the fact that you're dealing with high level enemies right from the start.

    And stuff.

    Honestly you probably could, I was just suffering from a tiny heart at the time and got tired of stupid bat/worm regenerators ruining my shit.

    Apparently, if you set the second player controller to the same button map as player 1, the game automatically uses both and since 2P is being used, Psycho Mantis falls for it, even though 1P is still in use with the same movements.

    Fuck you for beating me to this post.

    But yeah, pretty much what Ray said. I didn't use an NG+ file and pretty much just started straight out on the hardest difficulty. I got slaughtered in the beginning, but by halfway through the came I was accustomed to how difficult they were and had generated a game play around that. I think it would have been harder to develop one strategy for dealing with them, then having to learn something completely different going back to playing it again.

    I never play anything long on the hardest difficulty. I play games to not be frustrated. Fucking hell am I gonna play specifically to get annoyed at dying.

    Apparently this game I bought -- which I'm pretty sure I opened myself but can't remember at the moment -- doesn't have a game disc in it. I bought it about a week ago.
    ... there's $10 I'll never see again.

    I Hope it turns out you just mislaid the disc mate that would suck otherwise.

    I think the universe is telling you "you have a problem".

    Platinum addiction is a serious illness.

    Now that I'm thinking about it, I'm fairly positive I didn't open it. I just never noticed that it was already opened.
    Whatever. I bought it from work four days ago and I still have the receipt, so I'm just going to take it in and see if I can exchange it. When I was there earlier today they still had four or five copies left.

    Yes.

    Yes it is.

    But oh so delicious.

    I think if I had anything else to look forward to when I got home from work, it wouldn't be so bad. But getting a platinum is a visual verification of actually accomplishing something, rather than just sitting at home staring at the walls, driving myself insane.

    Just been quoted £2748/year to insure this: (Suzuki Alto 1.0 GL 3DR) worth £495 with Elephant.co.uk

    http://www.autotrader.co.uk/classifi...s/20?logcode=p

    Third party fire and theft rather than just third party I was looking at previously. It's getting there. If I could get a garage to park the thing in over night/when I'm not using it that would also lower premium.

    I know I'm getting a bit ahead of myself here, but you know. ~£3000 a year isn't THAT bad I suppose. The only way to get it to come down is to pay the stupid price it is now and not claim/crash.
