I say RE 4 did it pretty well (probably second to ICO). I think the escort section in God of War 2 has every complaint you have about escort missions in general in it.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17981737253993237147noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24434266.post-6157469369309256572008-05-30T08:53:00.000+10:002008-05-30T08:53:00.000+10:00Again, thanks for stopping by, new commentor.

I can't wait until they finish.<BR/><BR/>However I am currently quite enjoying resident evil 4 on the Wii. This game is primarily focussed on a long term escort mission. I haven't finished it yet but I assume this pretty much continues throughout the duration. It took a bit of getting used to but I am actually really appreciating it's weight on the experience. To the point that after a section of the game without her I got my little follower back and I felt more at ease.<BR/><BR/>I think the impact of knocking you out of a gameplay complacency can be a good thing and cause you to appreciate the rest of the ride.metaVirushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00651706673219219564noreply@blogger.com
