The middle two should have stepped to the side just to make sure. It would have been emabarasing if he had gutted one of them. The entrance would have been less cool that way.

But I still liked it.

It reminds me of what actually happened to me in the original game, on legendary, when I threw a stickie at a Jackal and he just patted his shield forward by about six inches and then returned it to the neutral position. The stickie was knocked back just far enough to explode without causing damage.

The Jackal just crouched there looking at me and I'm sure I was being mocked. "Is that the best you've got?"

I was like, "OK, if that's how you want to play it; time for some ultra-violence."
