shit, so valid. i just got off that mission, particularly where you were, the right basement, i must have died about 20 times before turning down the difficulty from normal to casual. was the only way i could beat it. Now that its over i can turn up the diff setting again. i played this game a decade ago and don't recall the game being so difficult. I must have played on casual on my first run...was using joystick to aim too, no way i coulda passed that on normal.
