I died quickly the first two times I played, but on the 3rd attempt I got the hang of it. Definitely going to forward this to all my friends. The intro is a little long, even with the fast-forward hotkey. Kinda annoying.

I love this game. I agree with geassuser, that dudes a bitch, but the pressure bomb works too. I wish their was a way to skip the intro but its so worth it.
