I've completed the game on PC (which wasn't easy, as it was buggy as hell) and am now playing it for the first time on PS3. I'm battling Scarlet, and I swear it didn't take this long the last two times I fought her (both on PC).
I've worn her down in the first round to the point where a couple of whacks knocks her down. I get the finishing move prompt, press square to jam the crowbar into her and am then told to press X repeatedly. She keeps getting back up every time. I seem to remember that she's supposed to do that a couple of times, but 10 to 12? I honestly lost count. She's supposed to eventually turn into her "spider-walk" form so I can go on to round 2 with her, but so far that's not happening. I've tried jabbing the X button, holding it steadily, etc. She just keeps jumping back up and we do the same song and dance again: Whack, whack, drop, jab, x-x-x-x-x, jump up, whack, whack, drop, jab, x-x-x-x-x-x-x, jump up, whack, whack, drop, jab, x-x-x-x-x. You get the idea.
I'm beginning to feel stuck in a loop here. How many times is she supposed to do this before she changes shape for round 2? I just don't remember having to do this routine so many times on the PC.
ETA: Can't anyone help? I've tried the game twice now. At last count, I'd whacked her over 20 times and she just keeps doing the same thing over and over and over. I never had this problem on PC, but I've had so many other problems with the game on PC that I don't want to replay it on that (in fact, I got rid of Steam, I was so disgusted with them). Every walkthrough I've looked at says I should only have to whack her a few times. This is ridiculous.
