Craving Chicago Typewriter? How to Unleash Bullet Hell in RE4
You've blasted your way through hordes of Ganados, dodged El Gigante's temper tantrums, and even (probably) rescued Ashley without too many complaints. But there's a nagging void in your RE4 experience. You see, Leon S. Kennedy needs more DAKKA! Enter the legendary Chicago Typewriter, a tommy gun that turns enemies into chunky salsa. The question is, how do you get your hands on this beautiful, bullet-spewing beast?
Beating the Game? Not Quite...
Newbie mistake, pal. Beating the main story is like getting sprinkles on your ice cream sundae - a delightful addition, but where's the fudge sauce, the whipped cream, the MARASCHINO CHERRIES? No, the Typewriter requires a little more finesse, a sprinkle of challenge.
Separate Ways: A Different Type of Grind
Ah, Separate Ways. Remember Ada Wong, the mysterious lady in red who waltzes in and steals the show? Completing her side story unlocks the Typewriter for purchase in the main game. But hold on to your fedora, because Ada's campaign is no walk in the park. Patience and precise aim become your new best friends.
The Merchant: Your Gatekeeper to Gun Glory
Once you've conquered Separate Ways (and hopefully rescued Ada in the process, chivalry ain't dead!), boot up your main save file. The Merchant, that loveable (and slightly creepy) salesman, will now have a new addition to his stock: The Chicago Typewriter. But here's the kicker...
1,000,000 Pesetas? You Serious, Bro?
Yes, my friend. ONE. MILLION. Pesetas. That's enough to buy a small village in rural Spain, or at least a lifetime supply of Leon's brooding stares. So get ready to grind those Ganados, sell those treasures you've been hoarding (who needs another Red Herb, anyway?), and become a penny-pinching pro.
Alternative: The Professional's Path (Not for the Faint of Heart)
Think you're Leon S. Kennedy, the ultimate survivor? Then buckle up, buttercup. Beating the game on Professional difficulty with an A rank unlocks the spiritual successor to the Typewriter in the remake: The Chicago Sweeper. This bad boy packs similar firepower, but here's the twist... you gotta earn infinite ammo through upgrades.
So, How Do You Get Your Chicago Fix?
The choice is yours, Agent. Grind away for cold, hard cash, or put your skills to the ultimate test on Professional. Remember, with great power comes great responsibility (and a serious dent in your wallet). Now go forth and unleash a hailstorm of lead! Just maybe lay off the civilians, alright?
