Yeah, I know about the later version- it's actually a remake for the PSP [Maverick Hunter X] and years ago during that MMX binge on my PSP, I also went through that game in both Normal and Hard, although some stuff were changed in location from the original so you couldn't always rely in the original knowledge.
I did unlock Vile, but I didn't like how he played, so I never completed a playthrough with him...
Thanks for reading and for your comment :]
