You're not trying to shoot it when it kneels over are you? When it kneels over you just approach it and press A, then an action scene starts and you mash buttons to slash away at it. It saves a lot of ammo.
If you saved the wolf, the wolf distracts it while you fight with it.
Damn...I've never get close to him when he kneels...>_< Will try this... As for the wolf, well I've made 2 saves, so I'll take the one with him, thanks!
BTW if you can tell me something, a friend tells me that ada appear at the end of chapter 1-2, he told me that you saw her trough a window, but I didn't saw it, just mendez that talked to me, why?

Flash grenades are your friends. Use them liberally (you'll find many more later on, so no need to scrimp when you really need them) against El Gigante, and if you do it right, he won't even get to attack you. Once he's down, hop on his back and jam the A or B button, depending on what the game asks you to do.
Now, what I want is a good, cheap way to beat Krauser, since you can only use the knife on him. He's totally kicking my ass in Pro. :p

Not me but I've read that the secuence is fun, hehe. He just gets pissed off of you shooting at him, right?
Yeah...If you shoot at him more than 5 time I think, then the game stops, and you get a cut scene.
Luis is taking a bullet in the arm, and then he turn right over you with his gun and says, "Adios Leon!" and shoots you...
Then you see Leon takin 3 bullets in the chest and Game over...

BTW, if you like gruesome secuences, get yourself killed by one of those insect-like enemies you'll find later, specifically by their "I jump on you and spit acid" attack. It's great!
I'll try to. BTW it seesm that there is a nice cut scene with "Del Lago". Not when he eats you but when the rope isn't cut in time...

I just beat this game yesterday, and... WOW. I knew the game was going to be good, but I never thought it would be THIS good.
Exactly, I too was expecting it to be good, but not THAT good.
Coincidentaly, I've been playing the game over and over once again (I've just finished for the 20th time I think).
As for the Spoiler
Spoiler (Highlight to view) -
You don't get a different ending after you finish it for the second time, but you kind of get an extended part if you finish the Ada minigame
End of Spoiler
I know the Metal Gear games are praised for its attention to details, but this game has lots and lots of little details that you find after you play through it several times. Plus, if you know spanish, the game is a lot more fun.
And yeah, the TMP sucks, that's why I sold it after killing like 10 guys with 100 rounds, it's not worth it.

As long as the game is still fresh on my mind, I thought I'd give my opinions on some of the game's highlights. Feel free to give your own as well.
Best Boss -
Spoiler (Highlight to view) -
Krauser. I loved all the dodging, the sequenced battles, the switches between long and close range, and the final showdown with a timer. Very cool battle sequence overall, very satisfying.
End of Spoiler
Worst Boss -
Spoiler (Highlight to view) -
Saddler. Way too easy. Does he even have any insta-kills? With the armor equipped his slash attacks were weak. And since you knew that he was the last boss, there was no reason to skimp on ammo or healing items. He also wasn't as creepy as some of the other bosses -- Mendez, especially. But make no mistake, I thought he was a cool character; I just didn't like his boss fight, specifically.
End of Spoiler
Best Weapon -
The basic handgun. I upgraded the hell out of it from early on in the game and stuck with it to the very end. Very useful and responsive. It also seems to have the most plentiful supply of ammo, except near the end of the game. The shotguns and rifles are certainly necessities, but the handgun was always my first line of offense.
Worst Weapon -
TMP. I've already mentioned why earlier in this thread.
Best NPC -
Spoiler (Highlight to view) -
Ada. She was very cool in this game, and you were always glad to see her, even if you weren't sure whose side she was on.
End of Spoiler
Worst NPC -
Probably Salazar. I guess they were going for an annoying recurring bad guy, and you're not supposed to like him. Mission accomplished. I suppose he at least provides you with some motivation.
Best Enemy -
Chainsaw guys. Was there any doubt? Just so fucking cool.
Worst Enemy -
Probably the bug things. They just seem like they were thrown in there and don't have the same creepy-factor as most of the other enemies.
Spoiler (Highlight to view) -
The invisible ones were pretty cool, though.
End of Spoiler
Special Note -
Spoiler (Highlight to view) -
Probably my favorite section of the game is the part with the pool-like area in the castle. Tons of enemies pour out at you, the creepy chanting is all around you. Very intense. Finish it off with having to cover Ashley while she turns those cranks while fending off enemies all around at the same time and you have a piece of video game history on your hands.

Deffinitly the game is good, As usual, there is some small weak point but they're more about my own taste than anything else and they never ruin the game...
For exemple the I miss the chest, in this one I can't do my usual weapon collection...
The action event...don't really like those, not that they're bad, but if you miss it's always death...Capcom could make those better with some differents possibility if you miss or not.
Ashey's small life bar that who is taken in priority...SO even if you have a big one full, it's game over is ashley dies... So why not a normal life bar for her too?
Some Plagas deals too much of damage for me...A simple whip lash deal more that a catapult shot...not clever....And even if I didn't have finished yet, I know that some other characters are playable( Hunk, Ada) but as usual Capcom made only 50% of the job, since the mercenaries is just a repetitive killing game...SO why not make the full game with the Extra characters, just like Leon?? At least it was possible in the OLd RE (and this make RE2 my fav...)
Oh I miss some puzzle too, this one didn't have much of those...
Still those are minor details, and the game is oversome! I'm only in my 1st run (ONSLAUGHT finished 20 time!!! @_@!!)
I just beat Bitores mendez...what a pain in the ass... and I'm starting the Castel...
And as most of people, I didn't even buy the TMP......
We are all mad at some point....

I'll put my impressions too:
-Best Boss:
Spoiler (Highlight to view) -
I'll go with Salazar's Right Hand. Although Krauser was surely great, the dodging secuences before actually meeting it, and the fact that you could choose whether kill it or just dodge it until the elevator comes, is great. Of corse, I killed it, some magnum rounds on a frozen body, plus a grenade makes wonders. Also, I like the creepy design a lot.
End of Spoiler
-Worst Boss:
Spoiler (Highlight to view) -
Saddler, clearly. As everyone has said, he's not that powerful or menacing to be the last boss. To me, Krauser is the real last boss.
End of Spoiler
-Best Weapon: My lovely, lovely Semi-auto Rifle. It's great even for short distance, since it can go through several enemies. Yes, there are better options for close quarters, but it's not that bad. An of course, it's the king of long range fun. Honorable mention goes to the Blacktail (which I prefer over the Red9), and the last shotgun (gotta love that 100 ammo capacity).
-Worst Weapon: I could say the TMP, but the Mine Layer is way worse. Waaaaaaaaaaaay worse.
-Best NPC:
Spoiler (Highlight to view) -
Ada of course, but she appears too little, I'd say. She's still stylish and mysterious, but I'd like to have her fight alongside Leon in some part of the game.
End of Spoiler
-Worst NPC:
Spoiler (Highlight to view) -
I dunno. Maybe Salazar because of his annoyingness and creepyness, but not really, he plays his role quite well.
End of Spoiler
-Best Enemy:
Spoiler (Highlight to view) -
Although the chainsaw guys and gals are lovable, they get very predictable with time. I'd go with the blind claw guys, because fighting them is fun, and sometimes (util I realized I could escape the cage before killing it) really difficult.
End of Spoiler
-Worst Enemy: Again, I can't find one. All enemies are unique and are placed so their fights are intense and great.
- Best parts of the game:
Spoiler (Highlight to view) -
The cabin fight against the hordes of villagers is awesome, I loved every second of it. Also, the scene in the pool-like zone of the castle when Ashley has to push the levers and you're assaulted by hordes of monks is great too. The Salazar's Right Hand boss is great as I've already said.
End of Spoiler
- Worse parts of the game:
Spoiler (Highlight to view) -
The final boss is dissappointing, and the ending quite generic, yes. The way they removed Las Plagas is too easy, and they didn't give much trouble throught the game to Leon and Ashley. I KNEW you wouldn't fight a mutated Ashley because fictional or not, she's the US president's daughter, and transforming her in a horrible monster could not be the best of ideas, there could be trouble with the US authorities or some stupid asocciation. Game-wise it would have been great, but... Well, back to the point, they should at least have made the Plagas removing a minigame in which you controlled the machine, I think. Also, the story of the game may seem to some not too developed, specially compared to Code Veronica, for example. Anyway, I like it as it is now, but I wouldn't minded some more links with previous games.

Grenade Launcher hate
Man, are you nuts? I mean, the grenade launcher is great!
When you max out the power of the weapon, it gains homing capabilities, and if you can't find that useful, then I don't know...
Add the scope and you have one of the most powerful weapons in the game (after the broken butterfly).
Remember thepart where you first encounter the monks with the catapults, but you can't see them because they're somewhat hidden? well, just aim to their general direction and the homing missile will find their way into one of the monks, and when it explodes, it kills everyone in that particular area.
Have a bothersome boss? no worries, just fire 2 or 3 missiles to him, then switch to your prefered handgun and blow them up. Whatch how the enemy whrites in pain and just smile in awe.
Want to kill regenerators without using that silly infrarred scope? Shoot a missile into his chest, blow it up, then shot the regenerator to his feet with a shotgun and while he's on the floor fire another missile round into his back. After that, the monster becomes cannon fodder.
Want some sadistic fun? just shoot a crow and watch it fly like the thieving bastard he is, and when he thinks he's safe *BOOOM*, there goes Mr. Feathers.
Don't like those goddamn ganado crowds? just shoot a missile to the nearest Don Pedro, and you will have an instant crowd dissolver in seconds.
I don't know about you guys, but I had so much fun with that weapon. But I guess that's my nature, shotguns, grenade launchers and flamethrowers are my favorite weapons in any game. Damn, the game lacked a nice flamethrower now that I think about it.

9800 Pesetas huh? Well I'll maybe get one...^ ^
Time mage, sorry I misunderstand it.
BTW, what did the Scope do on the Sniper rifle exactly when you add it???

It adds extra scope capabilities (kinda obvious, no?), I mean, you can zoom farter with it.
It also feels like you can aim faster with the scope attached, which is nice. The only downside is that in close quarters it zooms too far too fast, but I suppose that's why you can unequip it.
EDIT: And yeah, the stuff Onslaught mentions about the grenade launcher does sound cool. Like I said, I never even bothered buying one my first time through, maybe I'll try one out.

You'll be able to get it later. There you'll find some treasures and your first magnum, the Broken Butterfly.

Skip the secuence with Z, and that way the enemies will be at the point you skipped the sequence: If you let the entire sequence play, you'll start with everyone already in the cage, but if you skip it outright, the'll be preparing to jump into it and you will be able to move. With that extra time you should be able to break free with little to no harm.
