Makes it much, much easier.

I got up to him late last night, & after dying many, many times I dropped the difficulty to "Easy" & managed to kill him the standard way.

This morning, I re-loaded from before I dropped the difficulty, & killed him first time using the "ledge method" in the video.

OK, it's a bit cheeky, but he annoyed me.

Without spoiling anything for other in the thread I'd have to say the train part and the jeeps part were stunning and made you feel like you were really in the game. Very, Very well done to Naughty dog. They truly are the legends of PS3 for me. Cant wait for Uncharted 3 lol. I wounder what the DLC will be ? More co-op missions maybe ? I know theres some free and some paid for. Looking forward to that which is out before christmas
It's just... awesome

Although some other bits frustrated me, it was generally 'cos I didn't initially notice a ledge or something I could jump to, or 'cos I didn't use cover enough in a firefight, that kind of thing. So although I died, or briefly got stuck, it tended to be my own fault & I did it eventually.

e.g.
Spoiler: 
the merc captain on the train... I unloaded clip after clip into him, & it did nothing, then I got into a melee fight with him & kept dying. He *really* annoyed me... but then I realised I was messing up the Triangle prompt in the melee. Once I hit that correctly, I then had a Square prompt, & then took him out, easy.


Or...
Spoiler: 
The "Yeti" Guardians... irritated me loads 'till I realised you didn't need to fight them, just run around & avoid them.


The later
Spoiler: 
natives weren't too bad, as you just run & gun one, then steal his crossbow for easy kills on the other.



So many awesome shootouts, so many cool set-piece action sections, such stunning scenery & everything... Masterpiece

Didn't realise there was going to be DLC. Cool
