In all the previews before the release, I've read about unlockable characters as a feature of the game. But I haven't heard anything about them in the reviews. Does anybody who's playing Hunter know if the unlockable characters are playable, did the unlockable characters make it into the final release? What's the deal?

I appreciate the link Knight but that didn't help. There's no additional information there.

No I did read that, but that's the exact paragraph I've been reading for the past 2 months on every preview for the game. I'm looking to hear from someone that knows if they're actually in there and if they're playable. Because, as I said before the previews say that they're in there but no one who has played the game has mentioned it.

According to one of the game developers, there are NO HIDDEN CHARS in the game. The text was simply a misprint. It was intended to mention that there are unlockable character costumes...which is the"alternate hunter mode".


No hidden charaters folks....but there are secret weaapons. :)

I wonder what the unlockable weapons are if they do exist.

On several load screens during the game it states that they do exist. Is says something like there is a hidden button combination that will allow to receive an extra weapon or something like, and then another load screen states that there's a button combo that will allow you to be invincible, but I haven't found anyone that knows the combos yet. 1 guy emailed the developers asking for the combos and he said they never emailed him back so they must not be giving that info out freely yet.

They're there I promise. In between levels, I'm sure the load screens are random, but I've seen them multiple times. Ask some of the other members, I've heard other people talk about it as well or do you need screenshots??????

ok, i will when i get home tonight. the wording isn't hidden or small or anything, it's just in plain text where they give you hints and tidbits of info.

Yes i have seen this before when i played...i beat the game in like 6 hours it was way to easy i think. But yea it says something about there being a hidden button combination to give you extra weapons...but i think what they mean by this is just like the weapons you can already get just all of them at once, but of course i could be wrong. I also heard something about you being able to play as the towns people in the game but im pretty sure the person saying it was falsly intriging.

i have a question. im at the rooftop level, and u know when u get to like the circle of 6 hostages? well, by that time, i had saved 44 people, and when i was running up to save all 6 (to get 50, so i could get the good ending), one of them was killed, and now i only have 49. are there any more hostages in the game?

I had read something about Carpenter being selectable later.... I wonder how. It seems very possible. He is a bit like the Martyr. I wonder if its true... probably not. I think they should've had a character building system. They could still have the scripted events (I bet the HDD could help with this in some way).
