![]() ![]() ![]() Possibly this is because different versions of the game are inconsistent about unlockables. I’ve seen claims that you have to complete both of the other endings to unlock it, but reports are inconsistent about this. The third ending is the best of both options: the whole team escapes alive 1 Except for Cooper, who I had completely forgotten about when I wrote up the mission roster in a previous post, because he got eaten by the tyrannosaur before the opening cutscene was over. This is actually presented as noble, in a samurai-like way, even though the mission goal itself isn’t. Gail’s death is self-chosen, a result of his own stubborn insistence on giving the mission priority over personal safety. I had, for the first time, gone with Gail here, out of a desire for completism, refusing to skedaddle when complete victory was at hand. Anyway, these two endings have a clear correlation to an explicit choice given to the player, the last of several instances where Rick and Gail propose two different plans. If anyone is going to survive the destruction of a secret island fortress, it’s him. There’s a second ending where Gail lives but Kirk escapes - or possibly gets destroyed with all the dinosaurs on the island, but I don’t think that’s very likely, because not only is he handsome and long-haired, he also has a British accent and a haughty, condescending manner. In the ending I got, I captured Kirk, but at the cost of Gail’s life. I’m told that I found one of three endings, and granted the option to use a grenade launcher with infinite ammo in my next session. After some rather obvious revelations about the true purpose of the mission (Gasp! The military is only interested in the Third Energy as a potential weapon!) and a fairly anticlimactic final tyrannosaurus fight (most of the real damage is done in a FMV cutscene), I find that the game is over. ![]()
