Thank you... yes, after I realised I'd not tried E I went back and it worked fine. Sorry to be such a pest.

This probably makes me seem like an idiot, but I am stuck at the point where Freeman is required to board the airboat. The woman raises the doors but I can't get Freeman into the boat. Every time I try (jumping, running, crouch/jump even) he slides off and into the muck. It's driving me crazy! I...

Yes true, but not everyone wants to go through the process of creating accounts like Steam and downloading demos... and if someone tires of a game why shouldn't that person be able to pass the game on? Surely that's spreading the good word for the manufacturer.
