    Houdinis: Smarter Than You Think!

    Freakin' Houdinis! Has this happened to you?

    It's Dy...Di...whatever Park, and by that time in the game, you're kicking ass and taking names. You're Drill Dashing splicers like Link on Ganondorf, and suddenly, BOOM, you slam into a wall because a Houdini teleported out of the way at the last second. WHAT THE HELL?!

    Thank you, 2K, for including an ememy that can actually stand up to the best thing (period) in the game.

    The best thing in the game is security command 3 ( period ), the drill dash is a close second

    Yeah, the Houdini's were pretty tough. I thought the toughest Splicer was the Spider though. That kick they did was quite powerful.

    You could just cheese them out by pulling/holding them with tele 3 and spank them to death. Regular size splicers all become a joke once you get that plasmid leveled.

    Psh, you guys are crazy. Best plasmid in the game is Insect Swarm 3. Crowd control is so easy with it!! I do like the way they combined the Enrage and Hypnotize Big Daddy plasmids into one, though. That's another one of my favorites.

    Wow. I just read that the upgraded version of Security Command can call Security Bots. I guess I never really explored that plasmid.......STILL! Insect Swarm 3 is the best!

    Insect Swarm 3
    Ignite! 3
    Hypnotize 3

    My faves.

    I gotta agree with this guy, I just sit back and fire my wep without getting touched because they are to busy with the bees. Makes me feel lazy lol.

    If you have the Drill fully upgraded, they don't stand up so well.

    Wait for them to fire the first fireball at you then hit the Dash.

    When the Dash is active, so is the Shield.

    If you do it right, all three fireballs will reflect, slam into the Houdini, and the Dash will catch him on the chin. He falls back bleeding and on fire, dead.

    You have to do it JUST right though =)

    There's the key right there!

    Just place a Cyclone Trap where they are going to arrive; humourous everytime!
