Part 6: Episode 6: Giant Martian Worm
Episode 6: Giant Martian WormWe're on Capek's trail and he's gonna throw everything he has at us. That includes Gremlins, guards and...well, the episode's titular creature. I was debating not mentioning it at all, but I couldn't hold back. Playing this on the PS2 years ago I just kept wondering that the fuck the designers were smoking when they came up with that sequence. It's also one of the easiest fights in the whole game. The Chasing Capek sequence is its own little thing. This is sort of where the game first throws some bad design and AI stuff at you quickly.
The Gremlins move around at light speed if you try to shoot them at a distance. If they get close it is near impossible to hit them reliably. The best option here is to backpeddle at full speed and have them chase you so you can plug them a couple times. Guards will keep spawning behind you for a while the entire time, you can run ahead and ignore them if you really want to, though.
