This Arcade League Series is a parody of several different First-Person Shooters. But with the names slightly changed, as parodies go.

Contents

Aztec the Dinosaur Hunter

The first League Match in this Series is a joke on the N64 game, "Turok: Dinosaur Hunter".

Briefing

Aztec Warrior just loves to hunt Dinosaurs! The Aztec Priest has tried to convince him otherwise by explaining all of the ethical and ecological reasons which make it a morally questionable activity. Aztec Warrior ignores him, he says the Priest's just a cerebral bore...

Awards

Dinosaur: Aztec the Dinosaur Hunter with a Silver

  • Platinum: 80 kills
  • Gold: 70 Kills
  • Silver: 60 Kills
  • Bronze: 45 Kills

Strategy

Since you only have a Bow for a weapon, there's really no need to list the weapons in this match. The best place to hide is at the other side of the bridge, inside the cave near the gearworks. Stand in a place where the Dinos can't see you until you do, then blast any that come. Standing right at the end of the bridge is a bad idea, since they can shoot you with better accuracy than you. This strategy should get you a Silver atleast.

Half Death

The second Match of this Series is a parody on the PC blockbuster, "Half-Life".

Briefing

The Scientists have been experimenting with reactor cores and anomalous materials with the usual result - a trans dimensional rift aliens running amok. The marines have been sent in to shoot anything that moves. That includes you, Dr. Peabody!

Awards

Dr. Peabody: 20 Kills in 2 min 30.0 secs

  • Platinum: 20 Kills in 2 mins 0.0 secs
  • Gold: 20 Kills in 2 min 30.0 secs
  • Silver: 20 Kills in 3 ins 0.0 secs
  • Bronze: 20 Kills

Strategy

There's not really much to the strategy here, just go around and kill the aliens and marines as quickly as possible. The Bow (strangely) can kill pretty good but not as good as Soviet S47 x2! Stick with the Soviet and be sure to collect lots of ammo. Stay in area with the conveyors and the second floor for best results, there's a lot of activity there. And be sure to use the grenades that come extra in the Soviets, use them wisely!

Dead Fraction

Dead Fraction is a pun on the PS2 (I think) FPS game, "Red Fraction".

Briefing

The Miners of the Ulcer Corp are dying of a strange Pox and the company executives are running a cynical sweepstake on the morality figures - "Guess the Dead Fraction". The Miners with the Pox are revolting, none more so than Jebediah Crump!

Awards

Jebediah Crump: 20 Kills in 3 min 0.0 secs

  • Platinum: 20 Kills in 2 mins 30.0 secs
  • Gold: 20 Kills in 3 min 0.0 secs
  • Silver: 20 Kills in 4 min 30.0 secs
  • Bronze: 20 Kills

Strategy

(Almost) no matter what weapon your using, you'll will be set on fire frequently on this level. While you are on fire, you can go and spread it around (Which won't make a lot of kills) or you can continue killing with your weapon of choice (which generates a fair amount more than the Fire). One of the best Weapons to use here is the SBP90 x2, it's good for quickly dispatching of one trooper at a time. For a wider range of attack on the troopers, try the flamethrower but don't expect to keep yourself from the fire, since the troopers will try to touch you if their on fire and they'll run away from you when your on fire. This (Like many others) is a very difficult level to complete with a high enough trophy to unlock Jebediah Crump.
