SSX Tricky really is a solid and great game. makes me wish it wasnt available for the GC and PS2 fanboys tho...

BloodWake has to be one my favorite games! It's pretty much tied with Halo for me.. If you think Halo has good graphics than wait until you see BloodWake, not to mention the game play Is ssswwweeettt!!! I really love this game.. I'm on the second act level 7 or 8 (?) and don't want to stop playing It. The multiplayer Is fun too, there's actually bots on this game (unlike Halo..). I also really like the pirate like feel to the game.. all and all.. It's a great game!

LOL that's about where I'm at. I was a little busy this weekend and couldn't play it too much. I'm on that level 8, I think. It's the one where you have to sink the 2 ships. That one has given me a bit of trouble, so I took a break to go eat last night and couldn't find time to play again since. I should get off work early today, so I'll be sure to beat that **** level! ;)

Btw, multiplayer against the game's ships has been too easy for me. I'll have to check and see if I can up their difficulty.

Anyone know if you can unlock new weapons for your ships?

Yeah, I'm stuck on that level 8 two where you have to sink those two ships at the end of the channels. S***.. that level is hard!! I've beaten every level up to that point on Admiral (the hardest setting) and I can't even beat level 8 on easy (forgot the actual work the game uses for easy). I'm getting closer though.. If you beat that level you have to tell me how In the **** you did It. I have been trying going around to the left when you first start the level and blowing the **** outa those big ships with the topedo's and rockets (I've only sucessfully blown them all up once or twice), and then blowing everything outa the water In the channel. Once I get to where you have to blow the two ships up at the end I can't get In there blow em up and get outa there without dying. There's a lsland type thing to the left If you go around to the right.. with 4 missle launchers on It.. I've been trying to blow those **** things up.. I'll let you know If I beat It today!!

I have put the bots on Admiral and they still seem to be a bit easy.. It's still fun blowing the **** outa them though!

I beat that level by going through the delta or something like that. Blow up the turrets on the way. Once you get to the harbor where the 2 boats are then boost up to the 2 boats and blow the crap out of em. When trying to destroy the 2 boats, hide behind them so the turrets hit those boats. After that, get your boat out of there, which is the hardest part.

Man I'm going to have to try that hiding behind the two boats thing, because doing it straight up is getting my ass kicked and sorta getting me sick of the game. Like you said it was smooth sailing up until this level! sheesh!

I think the farthest I got on that level was when I hid behind the two boats.. since then I haven't had too much time to play my game, but hopefully tonight I will and I will beat it..

Man, I've given up on that for now. I've played level 8 about 15-20 times. I've tried racing up to those two ships as fast as I can and getting behind them, but even going so fast that I don't even take out the enemies along the way... they still end up sailing away and I don't get them killed fast enough. It's just too frustrating when those huge weapons get shot at you like nukes and you die so fast. I'm putting that "story mode" part of that game on hold for now. sheesh!

If you're low on health, there are 2 or 3 boats around the boats you need to destroy and you can blow those boats pretty easily since they're stationary and don't attack you. When you sink the 2 boats you need to sink and have a slight green health bar, boost your boat back through the delta. There are a couple of boats on the way out, but shouldn't be too tough. Also, make sure you've taken out the turrets the first time you go through the delta.

Now to anyone who's on the last level, how the heck do you beat that level!?

I've just beaten level 8 on act 2 on the easiest difficutly and then breezed through levels 9 & 10. Now I'm trying to beat level 8 on the medium difficulty.
