Has anyone played this game? Buying music on Amazon, I saw it for $10 and threw it in there too. I see some reviewers hate it and some like it, so its one you have to make your own opinion about I think.

It's a fun game as long as you don't play it exclusively for long amounts of time. If you do, it gets repetitive and boring pretty fast. I blow the dust off of it when I'm waiting for new releases, patches for my other games, or just don't want to devote myself to a new SH campaign. My review in short: :up:

Not very as you can see. Just got it Friday. I've used up 3/4 of the mountain already too. Not sure I'll be able to fit everything I need in it. And the huge hotel wings can't fit anywhere! I am only able to fit 1 hotel lobby with a wing with a lounge in it.

I usually divide them up. You dont need a huge amount of space for a bar, so use half a wing for rooms and half for the bar and all the hub for a lobby. Make sure you get a timeclock, too and plenty of valets. Also, a little tip for avoiding agents snooping around - put unsuspicious rooms around your entrance, like the Barracks, Mess Hall, Staff Room etc. Then make a long hallway with traps and security doors that leads to your inner complex.
I had three security networks running, 1 in the outer complex, 1 in the inner complex and 1 monitoring the entrance to the inner sanctum. I also had a surefire trap system involving a pressure pad, a poison gas cage and a popup distraction. Stops them dead. Literally. ;)

Super spies are a pain in the ass! I got this chick that is wearing nothing but a bikini showing up on my island. My guards all think she is hot so their loyalty goes out the window for me, and on top of it, I kick her butt, screw with her mind, and even interrogate her, and she won't die!!! Ugghh! When the fighting starts, she is so fast with that knife of hers, she takes out 10 guards faster than they knew what hit them! I even captured her, put her in a holding cell, and told a guard to go execute her, but she simply ducks the bullet, jams the door open and kills him, and then starts killing everybody else!!!! Like WTH!?? How do I kill this chick??? Eventually she escapes somehow, only to return 20 minutes later up to no good again.
What a thorn in my side. I need to figure out what her weakness is.

Until you get to the second island, the best thing to do is keep sending your valets at the Super-Agents. Once you get past the first island, there will be some optional missions to finish them off. As you've already found, giving the execute order while they're caged lets them escape. Also, you might try to either teleport Jubei on top of them and use 'Eviscerate', or use Lord Kane's 'Smooth Operator' on them to make them stand still so you can beat on them easier.

Yeah, I don't have Lord Kane yet. I do have a fully upgraded Jubei, and the Russian guy too. The Russian guy I don't like shooting his RPG inside my base though - he breaks too much crap. He is great for dealing with a group of Good or exceptional soldiers though. The RPG hurts all of them at once.

Each superagent has a specific weakness key to killing them. I believe the bikini lass's weakness is her beauty. Mess her looks up somehow and she goes nuts and dies.

I figured it would be something like that. Need to figure out how to keep her out of my base though. The Valet's definitely help. You can kick her butt too while she is dazed. When she goes down, she is down for quite some time.

This game is addicting. I'm on to Island 2 now, and Jet Lee sucks!!! He kills everybody he sees! Instant kill tag the moment I see him on the Island. I figured turrets hidden in sand castles are the best method in dealing with him. 3 together dishes out enough firepower to take him down, and you take him down twice, and he leaves.
Going to build the exam chair for the bikini chick next. Mess up her looks a bit! :D THen maybe she will leave me alone.
