I'm playing the game on HARD mode right from the get go, not sure how far into the game I am but I do know that every encounter I've had with a hostile Big Daddy of any type I've got my ass handed to me countless times. I figure other may be venturing through as I am and thought that if any of us have come up with good strategies to try out on them, we could compare notes. Now from other forums apparently these guys aren't nearly as bad on normal mode, but are insanely difficult on Hard mode. I've recently got a few new toys (grenade launcher) and such that I want to experiment with on them.

Rosies aren't quite as bad as the others, mainly because they just shoot and don't charge/rush you. I'm trying to max out my examinations of them to get all the bonuses with killing them, I tried freezing them with my powers but it doesn't last long at all. Not even beserkers from Gears of War compare to these things...I'd leave well enough alone if I wasn't so determined to get to those Little Sisters
