Playing the game again brings back some thoughts I had when I first played it. They should have made a PC version that had some sort of level editor (not the generic stunt creator) that allowed you to set up your own stunts. You could program the paths the cars and pedestrians would take, add ramps wherever you want, set up points where squibs and explosions would go off, etc. Something like that has a lot of potential.

This game is perfect as is. All the complaints are unwarranted.

Rewind features are for babies and shitty games like Full Auto.

Why yes, doing a simple task over and over while only interested in the harder stuff ahead is fun after all. Don't know what I was thinking.

I just prefer the oldschool style of having to master a level in order to move on to the next stage. This Stuntman game actually seems to take a little bit of skill in order to complete each level. Things like rewind features only serve to take away any sense of challenge for me.

And I agree wholeheartedly. No score, no advancement until you do it for real. I'd just like a more user-friendly way to learn how to do that, is all.

Escape is hot sex. Reverse 180 ftw

Maybe the retail version will have a "very easy" setting. As it is, I'm glad they're going this route. The challenge was most of the charm of the original.

IGN has updated impressions of the constructor challenges, and they sound amazing. It mixes the stunt constructor from the first game with challenges where you are provided limited materials to finish the challenge.
