I also liked the nice little surprise at the end of the credits, although the time limit on the arcade mode's hardest setting for the VIP is impossible I think. The rap song in the credits was just poor after the wonders of Still Alive, but the game was redeemed by a well-placed Airplane! quote and some innuendo (in your endo).
I'm not sure of the significance of the enemy intelligence yet, and only gathered 5 or 6 of the 30 on my play through. Anyone else know what they're for? Do they unlock stuff post-completion, or add stuff into subsequent missions? If it's the latter, then that would be a really good way of increasing content in the game, but I didn't see any reference to extra intel received so I'm assuming it's the former.

Question repost:

Is it possible to shoot down the chopper when you're in the jeep at the end and somehow change the ending, a bit?

It'd be an awfully lucky shot, that bit was hard.

If someone pulls that off, kudos to them. Whilst mid-game you can go into menu>options>cheats and it'll show how many intelligence laptops there are each map, and how many you've collected.
spoilers=bumsexualised wrote:I've got nearly 20 laptops now, the first few chetz are film noir mode, negative mode, high contrast mode, plays like a 1920's western mode. Then you get cluster bomb, where every grenade you throw, blows up and then spawns 5-6 more, which them blow up, creates a lot of noise and bodies. Just got 'badyear', you shoot an enemy, he turns into a load of tyres when he dies! 
I'm going through again now, so I'll update as I collect them

Guard dogs take on a new menace when you have no last ditch neck snap move.
