The difficulty of that scene is going to be lowered in the next patch AFAIK.
I'm playing on the 360 but can't get past that scence either. I've bruised my fingers pounding the crap out of that button trying to get past it. Is there some trick to this, or am I stuck until the patch comes out? Also, does anyone know for a fact when the patch is coming, and if it is going to address this?
