XRick Dangerous v3

I never got V2.5 so I've just upgraded from Malloc's V2.

I found Malloc's version extremely easy. Especially once the button 4 to jump had been added.

I find V3 far too fiddley in its current state. The worst part is the jump. The problem is if you want to fire the gun, your first thought is press the up button before the volume up.

This becomes especially difficult when you have to jump to position yourself, then fire the gun extremely quickly.

Also, I prefer malloc's portrait version compared to the 'new' Landscape version. I hate to say it but this game is built on depth & height. It becomes apparant people won't get far without cheating when you get to the point where you have to kill the first person. As you arrive at the top of the stairs, you realise that you can no longer see the level your first kill is walking on.

Later in the game, in order to progress, you will need to see what's below you when you drop. There's a point further on where 2 guys are walking below you. First, you need to judge the right point to jump. Then, when you land, you need to turn left and shoot immediately. To start you can no longer see the two men below you. But also, the shoot is soo fiddley, you virtually have no chance of this sequence unless you cheat.

The good points are, obviously the sound & the High score list but unless this game goes back to portrait, preferably with Malloc's key mapping, I'm sticking with Malloc's version.

This is my honest opinion. V3 is an improvement but it needs to be simple to control & in Portrait.
