...having to sit through the un-skippable end credits.. AGAIN.

And by sit through I mean moan a bit and then go to the kitchen for 5mins to make nibbles.

Btw. if you play it through on hard, you will get the achievements for easy and medium too.

yeah I know but I'd done it on med and did it on hard again 'cos I have no friends and like this average game enough to play through it twice in a week :(

I went and did the launcry while the end credit was running, and I got alot of laundry done because I've been doing the last map 3 or 4 times for the various achievements :p

The credits suck balls, they didn't even add "Hunker Greer, HUNKER!" "Oh maan" at the end, which is lame because it totaly owns.

I personally love,
"I have done a thousand dreadful things
As willingly as one would kill a fly;
And nothing grieves me heartily indeed
But that I cannot do ten thousand more.
Toodles!"
(the first part being a quote from the play Titus, as I had just found out from looking it up... Had no idea and suddenly the line is even more awesome)

Then again, just about everything about Gauge is awesome to me.

They quote and misquote the same line from Apocalypse Now, probably four times I've noticed: "terminate with extreme prejudice" and variations thereof.

This is why I just did it on hard mode the first time around.

You should be able to skip end briefing as well, unlike many, I found it ok, but it does get repetitive. I did medium, and hard, and has to redo a bunch for "completeist" achievement.

Plus I did a few over just to try a different strategy.

I guess the biggest disappointment was that the concept for the UEF tank was far more awesome then the Rockhead. Don't get me wrong, the rockhead looks great, but i want my ubertank!

I actually had already gotten Research Savant objective (I think it was called?) during my initial playthrough on Medium (I take my time with battles against the AI and usually took so long, and had so much research, that I'd have all tech by the end of most Operations). Played the last level a second time on easy to get Master of Pawns objective. I may play through yet again on Hard. And that would probably be the last time.
