Craving the Chicago Typewriter in RE4 VR? How to go from Leon S. Kennedy to Leon S. Machine Gun
Let's face it, blasting Ganados with a peashooter gets old. You, a trained government agent, are stuck with a popgun while these freakshows take fashion advice from a zombie apocalypse. But fear not, comrade! There's a way to unleash your inner John Wick and turn the village into a lead-filled piñata. We're talking about the glorious, the unmatched, the Chicago Typewriter.
What is this mythical beast of a weapon, you ask?
Imagine a shotgun that decided to become a tommy gun's angry older brother. This monstrosity chews through enemies like a hangry hippo at a buffet. Imagine the satisfaction of turning a Ganado horde into red mist with a single, glorious brrrt.
Now, how do we get this marvel of engineering into your VR hands?
Well, there ain't exactly a vending machine for apocalyptic weaponry (although, that's a business opportunity someone should look into). No, you gotta work for it, soldier. Here's the lowdown:
-
Beat the Game: This ain't playtime at the nursery. You gotta conquer the main story on any difficulty. Think of it as your RE4 Bar Mitzvah.
-
The Mercenaries: A Dance with Danger (and Time) This is where things get spicy. The Mercenaries is a separate mode where you gotta rack up points by stylishly eliminating enemies within a time limit. Think of it as a zombie-killing Olympics, but way cooler (and sweatier).
-
Stars Align: Those Shiny Stars Mean Shiny Rewards As you complete Mercenaries stages with high star ratings, you'll unlock goodies. And you guessed it, the Chicago Typewriter is one of those goodies. How many stars? Well, that's where the info gets a little murky. Some sources say you need a certain number of total stars across all stages, while others claim specific stages with high star ratings are the key.
My advice? Don't be a one-stage wonder. Dominate them all! Become the Michael Phelps of zombie murder!
Bonus Tip: While you're on your star-collecting quest, you might unlock some other nifty rewards, like infinite ammo for other weapons. Because who needs to reload when you're channeling your inner Rambo?
There you have it, my friends. With a little work (and a whole lot of zombie slaying), you'll be mowing down enemies like a lawnmower on high octane. Just remember, with great power comes great responsibility...like aiming away from innocent villagers (mostly). Now go forth and dominate, you magnificent, trigger-happy hero!
