This might get me to actually bother completing the game. I found it quite interesting upto the plot twist and then it became Farcry-esque (i.e: nice enough game and then they shoved a load of meaning less challenges and a boss in to "spice things up"). Tried 3 times to beat the final boss and just never went back to it.
I'll wait till I've got all my uni work done first though, I don't want to neglect my particle physics worksheet (read: "oh joy, more work")

The first 5 times i tried to beat fontaine i found it extremely hard. You need to prepare before hand. This means having tonics that make you invisible when you stand still and  lots of cash to buy health kits/ kill drone strikes upstairs in the boss room. Use the electric gel to take him out first then when he gets those drones hack a couple and that makes it alot easier. Use ice freeze to freeze him and then pound him with the shotty. It's just about preparation. :). That plasmid that makes people think you are somewhere else is also useful :P.

are you serious? the only power i really used was tekelenesis, i threw his fireballs back on him, and shot him like nuts with a totally enhanced tommy gun using the fire buttles + anti personell, and when he gets to close, get that totally enhanced flame thrower and let him burn
 
i never used a medpack... and i only had 2-3 health/eve upgrades

Yeah first time round I got to the last time I had to inject him a waited too long, then when on my second try I didn't get atleast as far I just threw another half assed attempt at him which got me nowhere.
The first time was just using the decoy and my guns (shotgun mostly), and when I ran out switch through Tommy gun etc.
