Our lawyers have advised me to recant my claim on the previous page that Malcom McDowell played the Chewnicorn in Viva Pinata. I have decided to do this by repeating the phrase "Malcolm McDowell played the Chewnicorn in Viva Pinata" several times in order to emphasise that it is not true. "Malcolm McDowell played the Chewnicorn in Viva Pinata" is not a true statement.

These statements are also not true: Malcolm McDowell played the Chewnicorn in Viva Pinata. Malcolm McDowell played the Chewnicorn in Viva Pinata. Malcolm McDowell played the Chewnicorn in Viva Pinata. Malcolm McDowell played the Chewnicorn in Viva Pinata. Malcolm McDowell played the Chewnicorn in Viva Pinata. Malcolm McDowell played the Chewnicorn in Viva Pinata. Malcolm McDowell played the Chewnicorn in Viva Pinata.

Anyway, that's enough search engine optimisation for one day. What's Sev up to? According to our catalogue of thumbnails, today he is touching his ear, looking round a corner, and – second from bottom – doing an impression of Alan Wake having a stroke.

Chapter 7: Scrapyard Shortcut

Scrapyard Perimeter

You and Rico head through the scrapyard to meet up with the rest of the unit at the elevator. You alert the defence systems on the way and encounter a lot of troops as you take out sentries and clear a path.

Fenced In

Accompanied by Rico, you head towards the mobile factory, taking out heavy numbers of troops and sentries. Place a charge and head through to the next area.

Blind Yards

You and Rico need to use the crane to clear a path to the next area, kill the troops around and defend yourself, when you come under attack on the crane. Clear to the next area for pickup.

Mobile Factory

While aboard the factory there will be a few troops. Clear them out as you proceed to the top and take out a horde of jet troops and a couple of defence guns.

Belly of the Beast

Take out some more troops and head to the control room so you can use the mobile factory to save the unit.
