Try installing again........

initially the menu texts were also looking like dat only...but after installing the 1.02 patch it was solved but now the above problem....
i think it was looking like a Gothic

But i m sure it jumbled english letters

Is it really similar 2 pop series....btw i liked Soul reaver 2 the most

u do have a CD or .............?
cz............wen I installed it, it didn't require any patches................

[offtopic]
but wierdly it required an original source.........
like if I make a copy of d cds I've, the game wouldn't install from those cds........
I've wasted 4-6 cds experimenting on d same
we who loved d game had to pay d person to make a copy for them.........
[/offtopic]

no solution............try installing again..............
b4 that un-install by revoUninstaller and do a CCcleaner scan................
that way u'l get a fresh registry..........
try it I can't assume wat might be root of the problem..................from d details.....

Try to reinstall the game or Check for latest patches for the Game

actually downloaded the setup from rapidshare ...& it was a 2CD setup
now the game has taken 2GB....of HDD space

well regarding ur answer....i think this setup was created by some group....modded u can say....

i applied 1.02 patch but the problem was still there.....& u know dat the menu....name was wierd looking now it is showing the correct menu
like "Welcome to Slums"

it happend like i searched the installed files....my first impression was dat it may be due 2 BAD patch file or corrupt setup files..but i saw a batch file (.bat) i opened it
in notepad & saw some serious programming in dat...

echo@off...
..xy0~ye;;'
some like dat lines...blah blah blah....

then executed dat batch file..& cmd window popped up....showing me some replacing
process of some files 4 a minute or so...
then i ran the .exe & voila it worked....

i guess dat batch file was a language converter or so..

As far as I remember we used to paly it at night at hostel.............it took 7-10 days as some of the puzzles are really tough and boss fights are very much frustrating.......u keep on dying...........(actually on first attempt I un-installed it as I couldn't defeat d first level boss..........I played one level for 3 days but.......)

Plz don't use a walkthrough...........it'll waste d surprise ( wo kaya bolte hai na taste ko waste mat karo) u may need walkthrough in the last level boss fight

Instructions would only be given when u get new powers..........aftr that u r on ur own............

I can still name a few of the amazing powers.......mist, berserk, telekynesis, immolate(this my favourite)

One request to u (I do it 2 everyone who is new to play this game)............don't loose hope............u r gonna love it.........

 

[Zangetsu]

it took 7-10 days

hmmm..

as some of the puzzles are really tough and boss fights are very much frustrating.......u keep on dying............I played one level for 3 days

I love challenges...Btw i played one level in POP3D for 1month..how silly

Plz don't use a walkthrough...........

i only use a walkthrough...whenever i m stucked or 2 get secret places...if they exists
moreover for tips also

Instructions would only be given when u get new powers..........aftr that u r on ur own............

But will it tell me the outcome of dat power when used...

don't loose hope..........

Sorry mate this word is not in my dictionary...
& afterall u know my attitude...

u r gonna love it.........

Let's see...time will tell...

 

[rhitwick]

But will it tell me the outcome of dat power when used...

U'll definitely get to know wat ur power is doing............
I say they are awesome..........Just play.........

yeah I know ur attitude...................keep it up.............I think u r gonna finish it within 1 week.......

played it on fri,sat & sunday....& on 5th chapter now

this game is quite interesting.... totally different from soul reaver 2 (also heard that BO2 was developed by a different team)

killing the innocents is really fun...& watching their xpressions & voice acting is good 2...the environment is also cool(it is like the old england cities)....the backstreet r like POP....

mist,stealth kill,super jump,charm,fury,etc r amazing

although the puzzle is not dat tough (till now) as compared 2 soul reaver 2 but the good thing is dat more stress is applied on fighting which was less in SR2

Boss fight is also excellent which was missing in SR2
Background music is also good...the annoying factor is dat u cannot save between two checkpoints...even if u do the game progress will be saved on the checkpoint u crossed @ b4 saving...& one more drawback is dat the weapons also gets lost if load teh game...so any waepon upgrade gets lost

neway still a must play game 2 hang out with....

Q: There r 2 tubes with red & pink color on the upper left screen...red one i know is the health meter but wats the use of the pink meter...also known as lore meter i guess ?

Q: Is there any combo moves ?
