I bought this on XBLA when it was on special, not really expecting to get into it, but just curious about the new art style.
 
I love the hint system the game helps you with! Press X once and it gives you a little nudge. Press it again and it gives you more specifics. Press it again and it gives you a handy arrow, pointing you in the right direction. Half the time I have no idea where I'm meant to be looking. 
 
I usually hate cheating (hints are cheating, don't you know), but this time around I find it a godsend.  I'll see it through to the end, thanks to the hint system.

Same here. I tried to go without it, but it was confusing as fuck at times. I will have to use a guide and go through it again for the rest of the achievements, though.

They should put something like that in those shitty games where you have no clue what you're doing.
