So, um... awhile back... when I asked how to escape from Gran Bruce's jaws in Viewtiful Joe... how FUCKING difficult would it have been to tell me that I just had to rotate the thumbstick, huh?

Anyways.

Dear Gran Bruce,
Keep your big mouth shut until you know you're gonna win. Oh. Wait. You lost.

Hugs and Kisses,
Joe.

I thought Gran Bruce was the easiest boss, once you figure out the tricks to beating him. I didn't notice you asking how to escape his jaws... I always just mashed everything and it worked.

Well, I don't mash the thumbstick, usually.

He is pretty easy, once you get out of the jaws. I swear to GOD, he'll hold you until you're dead if you let him.

I know. Tried it once. By mashing everything, he always took off two hearts, so I thought all he did was do two hearts of damage and spit you out. One day I didn't press anything and waited for him to spit me out, and I almost died before I got out of his jaws. because I waited too long before I realized he doesn't just spit you out.

Well... rotate the stick, and then do a Ukemi when he spits you out, and you end up with at MOST one heart damage.

EDIT: OK, I can do the Ukemi, but how do I do a Viewtiful Forever? Zoom in before hitting up/down to dodge? Or do I go into slow-mo to dodge, THEN zoom in?

Slow-mo to dodge, THEN Zoom In. It took me a while to get it down, but that is just because I had trouble figuring this stuff out and I'm slow to get the trick down...

OK, I'll try that in "The Viewtiful Escape" tomorrow. (I'm resting on my laurels right now. If I start Episode 4 tonight, I'll become frustrated quickly... better to be satisfied for now that I've beaten Bruce.)

...

OK, out of curiosity, what other forms does Six-Machine have? I've been the plane in Episode 3, and I saw the mech in the prologue. I was convinced that I'd be doing a sub level...

Wasn't there a Sub Level? Or maybe that comes later. Or before? I was fairly certain there was a Sub Level though.

I'm almost positive there's a sub level, because I'm either dreaming it up, or that's the level I lost interest on...

OK. I haven't tried the fourth level yet, but it looks like Joe may not have actually boarded the sub.

So, it might be a sub level.

So, Six Machine is a plane, a mech, and a sub. I'm fairly positive that there are three other forms...

I think you are thinking of the second game. It turns into a ton of different stuff in that one...

Actually, I was just guessing because of the name. But OK!

And GJ? I would have thought that the sub level was similiar to the plane level... which was FUN.

Wow... Viewtiful Joe just makes an awesome story. And by awesome, I of course mean silly. Spoilers ahead, I guess.

















"So, this shadowy guy totally grabbed Sylvia and went into the movie screen! And then, there was an awesome mech battle, and Six Machine fell into the theater! Then he totally threw me into Movieland! I was in the middle of a jungle, but it was OK, 'cause Captain Blue's ghost appeared, and he totally gave me superpowers! I had to fight robots, and then I found a mansion, which had more robots inside! I went all the way down to this room with a stained glass window, and then this helicopter burst through, and I totally kicked its ass! I went into the wine cellar, and found an old tomb. Then this creepy man-bat, who was made out of smaller bats) came out, and he was all, "Who dares disturb my sleep?" and I was all, "Me, that's who!" Man, I totally kicked his ass, too!

"Then I came through the sewers into this town, and it was overrun with robots! I totally kicked their butts, but there was a gate in the way. So, I had to go back into the sewers! When I came out, I had to fight these hot pink fembots, and then I rode a bus over a giant pothole! It was totally, rad man, you should have seen it! Bullet time and everything! Then there were these two helicopters guarding this skyscraper, and I ripped them apart with my BARE HANDS. So, naturally, I go into the hotel, and it's overrun by... zombies! No, just kidding; robots again. I kicked their asses until I made it to the top, where I had to fight this jive-talking ogre. He totally gave me shit about Captain Blue, but that's OK because I ended up rocking his world!

"Then I found out about a bomb plot in this underwater city, so I had to give up looking for Sylvia to save the city, 'cause that's what a hero does, ya know? So, I got Six-Machine into his jet form, and I flew trough an armada of flying robots, killing them all! And then I had to destroy this really HUGE jet over the sea city. Then I jumped out of Six Machine, and landed underwater. I went through the city, killing robots and stopping the bomb plot. The water level lowered, and I found the person responsible: a street shark! He told me all his plans, and then I kicked HIS ass, too!

"Then I boarded the sub headed back to his base! I had to dodge these giant torpedoes, and make my way to the bridge. When I got there, I destroyed this fat robot in a thong, and turned the sub upside down! Then I went to stop the missiles... and then NINJA robots appeared..."

That's as far as I got today. But yeah, this plot sounds awesome. Totally.

I LOVED that game! I didn't play Singleplayer much though, mostly Sandbox or Multi. What do you need?

Damn... My problem is the military campaign. I'm supposed to kill The Pig, but the bastard is well defended, and of course I have to kill him only with the soldiers I'm given at the beginning... He's got Pitch all around the front of his damn moat, and when I send my spearmen to dig it up, they end up barbacued... We're talking over 250 guys, FWOOSH all gone... Was hoping someone could give me a strategy.

And yes, it's a kickass game. I got it and the Crusades expansion a couple years ago.

I'd check the home of the underdogs, GJ.

And Jon... can you ignite the pitch yourself, first? That seems to be the easiest answer, but I haven't actually played the game...

Right now? Probably some discount store, I got it years ago and it was old then...

I hate to say it, but there's a slim chance wal-mart might sell it for like 10 bucks somewhere.
