At this point, Sev's beard has gone completely off the grid. Presumably the ISA's home planet (I think it's called Vekta or Vectra or Pontiac Firebird or something) is in peril, because instead of just going home everyone seems to want to take the fight to the Helghast again. Or maybe Sev wants one of their snorkels.

But what of Winstone and McDowell? "Winstone's Stalin-esque Orlock, Admiral of the Helghan space fleet, barks, glowers and snarls like an East End cabbie with a wasp in his underpants. By contrast, McDowell channels Nazi plotters like Goering for his role as Stahl, the head of Helghan weapons development with a sideline in smug psychological wargames and oily betrayal. Both actors know precisely how far over the top they need to go, and the cut-scenes where they clash (most of them) are a real treat."

Malcolm McDowell is pretty hot, really, and has had what one might describe as a "varied career" according to his IMDB page. He loves the old video games too, by the look of it – he's been in God of War III, Fallout 3 and Wing Commander III, and he also played the pivotal role of the Chewnicorn in Rare's Viva Pinata.

Chapter 6: Stahl Arms Infiltration

Stahl Arms East Block

Exit the cable car and head to the assignment you have been given. You need to create a diversion to get past the troops as you head to the broadcast room as the executioners.

Ward 5

You, Rico and the captain have to escape, killing the heavy resistance you face as you go from room to room, trying to find your way out of the arms facility. You and Rico split off and fight a lot of troops in large rooms with lots of cover and balconies. You need to defend yourself from a medium assault.

Assembly Line #17

You and Rico go to join up with the captain and the rest of the prisoners as you go outside and battle a few troops and a flying sentry. You then boost around on another jetpack in the open area.

Sharp Pursuit

You ride down a mountain in control of a vehicle with guns and homing missiles, shoot or avoid things in your way. Kill the other vehicles and ships and dodge around the craters on the path created by the big cruise ship shooting at you.
