Oh yeah, you know what, i never killed him come to think of it. i kept freezing and shooting him, but after a while of doing that, the elevator came, so i just said screw it and ran in there.... never killed him. im gonna see him soon again though, im playing through the second time, and im pretty close to that part again. the good thing is, my handgun (Red9) is a power level 5 (which a stock shotgun is 4) and my shotgun is at 8, and its exclusive is it being effective in any distances. what happens the 2nd time around, is you start with the all the same stuff you had when you finnished the game the first time, so its super easy now.
