Even with the radar, it's extremely hard to find them.

And, assuming you find them, you're now in a place with no ammo or 
supplies...

The car *is* good for killing them, but it's extremely hard to steer. 
(Let's face it, try driving a *real* car at more than 5 MPH while 
snapping the steering onto hard lock...) And the hunters easily step out 
of your way.

I tried the rocket launcher and the orb from the pulse rifle, but 
rapidly ran out of ammo. The machine gun takes forever to take 'em 
out... :-(

Yeah, well, if I ever get that far... :-}

(Don't you just love games where the final climactic battle is *so* 
climactic that it takes 5 times longer than the rest of the game put 
together?)
