Hydro Thunder Hurricane - Atlantis (Expert)

Had me an urge to play some good ol' Hydro thunder Hurricane today on the 360. I specifically was using the Cutthroat on Atlantis here in order to try and unlock a skin for it.

Y'know, much as I love this game, I do find myself getting a bit frustrated with some of the design choices Vector Unit decided to go for in it, like the fact the boats are so damn fragile compared to the first game and so easy to upend. Sometimes, all you need to do is just barely glance a wall as you're cornering and the next thing you know your fucking boat's upside down. Or it explodes.

The randomness of the wave physics can also get a bit annoying too, like when the game just seems to decided, 'Y'know what, I think I'm going to just make you randomly launch 20 feet in the air on this particular corner now. What's that? I don't normally make you fly through the air here and if you're flying through the air, you can't steer through the next corner? Ha ha, fuck you!'

The CPU boats have a really bad habit of getting right in the way sometimes too, and unlike the first game you can't Hull Crusher the pricks out the way.

Anyway, moan over. I do genuinely love this game.

Mostly...
