Harder Difficulty
In Professional difficulty, everything is the same except for the fact that
enemies are alot tougher to kill. To unlock it just finish the game once.
Get Unlimited Ammo Handcannon
Fully upgrade the Handcannon's firepower, reload, and capacity. The
'exclusive' option then raises the attack power to 99.9 and gives infinite ammo.
Free Ammo
When you upgrade any weapon's capacity at a merchant, he will refill the
magazine free of charge. This is very helpful with the magnum, or TMP
How to defeat the prison boss easier
Buy a rocket launcher and run up to the middle of the steps and shoot him
it's a one shot kill. Submitted by King
Unlocking the Punisher Pistol
When the guy who runs around and sells you upgrades for weapons, he has a
secret "quest" for you. You have to search 2 areas of the game for the blue
medallions & shoot them (there are 15 altogether). Doing this gets you the
Punisher Pistol.
Keep and Sell the "Special" Rocket Launcher:
Get the infinite rocket launcher. Ada will throw you the "Special" Rocket
Launcher in your battle with Saddler. Grab it but do not use it. Use the
infinite rocket launcher to kill Saddler and when you start a new game, it will
be in your inventory to sell.
Scope Ashley:
When Ashley is either up on a ladder or a cliff, you can point your gun at her
and she'll call you a pervert while grabbing her skirt. Any ladder where Ashley
is too high up, and where you'll have to use your sniper rifle to look up her
skirt, she will not notice you and, therefore, will not stop you.
Beat The Game With A Short Time Record:
Play until you are near the end of the end of the game. Stand in a safe area,
like a save point. Then just walk away without pausing (You can turn off the
TV). The time clock flips back to zero when it reaches 100 hours. Return to the
game at that time and finish it.
Off the Final Boss with Style:
1. To hurt the final boss you have to hurt the eye in his mouth. To make that
vulnerable shoot any other eyeball on his body or use the explosive crates or
mechanisms on the battlegrounds.
2. Once his weak point is exposed you can shoot it with a powerful gun (shotgun,
magnum, etc.) or stand by the boss' head and press A. It will show a cinematic
of Leon jumping on the boss and stabbing its eye. This is a nifty trick to save
ammo, not to mention it's awesome.
3. If you are having trouble hitting the boss' eyes to expose his weak point you
can just hit him with the mine launcher. The explosion will always hit one of
his weak points!
Looking at Ashley the wrong way
When Ashley is following you find something somewhat high off of the ground
and climb on top. Then tell Ashley to stay put. Go below where you left Ashley
standing. When you are underneath and you try to move the right analogue stick
up to look at Ashley, she will ask Leon what is he looking at and call him a
pervert.
Unlock the Handcannon
In the course of the mercenaries game, you can unlock extra characters by
completing the maps with a high score, in addition to secret characters, you can
also unlock weapons. The total cost of the Handcannon's upgrades is 790,000
pesetas. To unlock the Handcannon get a five-star rank on all mercenaries.
Unlock Infinite Rocket Launcher And Mathilda Handgun
Beat the game to unlock the Mathilda handgun and the Infinite Rocket
Launcher. The items will be unlocked for purchase at any merchant if you load up
a "Round 2" game save. The weapons come with a hefty price, too.
Max out your health while fighting the first El
Gigante!
In the area you fight him there is a yellow herb you can use with a green
herb to increase your health. Grab it and use it to increase your health then
let him kill you, which won't be that hard. After your game is over continue and
you will have all of your green herbs again and the extra health. The yellow
herb will be out there again so grab it and repeat the process increasing your
health over and over again till its maxed out fairly early in the game..
Special Costumes
After beating the game the first time, when starting a new game or playing a
Round Two game, a new option appears that allows for Leon and Ashley to wear
special costumes. Leon wears an R.P.D. uniform, Ashley wears pop sensation
clothes, and Ada wears her black outfit from her mini-game.
Easy money
Once you gain access to the tunnel with the merchant beyond Pueblo, return
to the farm area and wait for the chickens there to lay eggs. Exit and re-enter
to begin the same process over again. After you fill your inventory, you can
return to the nearby merchant to sell your eggs. White chicken eggs sell for 300
Pesetas, brown eggs for 600 Pesetas, and golden eggs for 3,000 Pesetas.
Quick money or more health
If you mix a Green, Red, and Yellow Herb, you can sell it for a lot of
money, or use it to restore health and increase the maximum health. Use it when
you are low on health so that you do not waste the health recovery from it.
Open doors quicker
Tap X(2) when the "Open" action appears to kick open or down some doors
instead of nudging them by hand. This will give you an advantage, as any enemies
behind the door will be sent flying back.
Opening locks
There are many locks on doors. Instead of shooting the locks and wasting
ammunition, pull out your knife and cut it off. The same can be done for boxes.
Aim faster
Use the D-pad and Analog-stick together to aim faster than normal.
Avoid damage from traps
To avoid getting hurt by traps such as explosives and bear traps, use your
laser sight and shoot at the explosive or the middle of the trap.
Finding items
To find items, smash all of the crates with either your knife or a gun.
More items
When running around different areas of the village, you will see crows. Pick
them off from a distance as to not scare the others away. They usually drop
Pesetas. Note: If you scare some away, just re-enter the area to reset their
position.
Selling items
If you plan to sell two or more herbs or other items that can be combined,
combine them first and do not sell them separately. This will result in a small
boost in the total selling price when compared to what it would have been if you
sold them separately.
Pearl Pendant
Close to the start of the game there is a pendant with a value that will
decrease by 9,000 Pesetas, if dropped in water. To keep it as the Pearl Pendant
instead of the Brass Pocketwatch, shoot the block that is holding the well open,
then shoot the pendant down to pick it up off the top of the well cover. It will
sell for 10,000 Pesetas.
Valuable jewels
When around the village stage, some trees will have bird nests. Shoot them
down to get valuable jewels to sell to the merchant.
Crown Jewels
Kill Salazar's "right hand" that you need to use the liquid nitrogen tanks
on to receive the "Crown Jewels". which fit into the "Crown" treasure item. This
is difficult; try using the Chicago Typewriter.
Sell the rocket launcher (special) to the merchant
Note: This trick involves the infinite rocket launcher (successfully
complete the game; costs 1 million Pesetas). When you fight Saddler and Ada
throws you the rocket launcher (special), take it, but do not use it. When you
can get a clear shot to his main eye, use the regular unlimited launcher.
Saddler will be killed and the rocket launcher (special) will be yours to keep.
When you start a new game, you can sell it to the merchant.
Surviving the raid at the farmhouse
An intermission sequence will start when you are escorting Ashley across a
bridge. A large crowd shows up and you will run into a farmhouse. After the
sequence ends and you are inside the house with Lou, push the bookcases in front
of the windows and go to the bottom of the staircase. Using the shotgun is
recommended, but the pistol works fine. Once they are able to gain entrance to
the house, aim high and fire until they are all knocked down. Then, reload and
repeat until Lou tells you to head up stairs. When you do this, go over to the
windows and knock down the ladders. After that is done, go to the edge of the
stairs and kill everyone that is coming up Grenades work the best for this.
After they are taken care of, rush back to the windows and knock down the
ladders once again. Repeat this until the sequence plays when they retreat.
Once in the farmhouse, collect all the items while pushing the shelves against
the windows. Stand in the corner by the stairs with Luis and fire until he tells
you to go upstairs. Once up, stand in northwest corner (when facing down the
stairs), and concentrate on firing in the direction of the stairs and pushing
down the two ladders in that corner so that you do not become surrounded.
Because the raid continues until you kill a certain number, block two windows
and shoot out the third until the enemies break in. Then, block the third window
and deal with the other two. This allows you to get several kills in before it
starts getting hectic.
Two routes
Soon after the farmhouse, look around to collect some ammunition and buy
more items. After that, go to an opening where you see a lever. Go up to it and
switch it to the right to fight El Gigante (recommended) or switch it to the
left to face more chainsaw wielding villagers (extremely difficult). If you
select to fight El Gigante, aim at the rock at the top ledge until he is
underneath it and fire. Use the same tactic on the one you dealt with earlier.
Easy kills
After you kill the hatchet guy as soon as you start the game, go upstairs to
the window. Do not jump out. Instead, take out your pistol and shoot the glass
out. Then, carefully aim for the villagers' heads that are awaiting outside.
There are three of them. If you kill all three, you can jump out and avoid any
damage.
Killing large crowds with TMP
Shoot out the legs of everyone, then unload on their heads while they are
lying on their faces.
Killing birds
Throw a flash grenade in the middle of a group of birds. All of them will
die instantly, leaving lots of gold. This also works with the Granadas when
their heads are transformed.
Killing snakes
If you see a snake after smashing boxes, kill it. You will get a chicken egg
for health. Note: If you do not kill the snake it will bite you and take health
away.
Killing the merchant
You can kill the merchant at any time in the game. On the normal difficulty
setting, he just dies then comes back at the next place, or sometimes when you
leave the room and come back in. However, on the professional difficulty
setting, once he dies, he remains dead.
Golden egg
At the beginning of the game, if you leave a hen alone in Pueblo they should
lay at least one golden egg (which fully restores health when used). Go to the
weapon/health screen and select the egg. It should allow you to equip the egg.
At the screen, Leon will throw the egg up and down, looking smug. Additionally,
the golden egg is the best healing item, as it fully heals you and only takes
one space in your case.
Throw eggs at Ashley
Collect some eggs, equip them, and throw them at Ashley. They will not harm
her and it is funny. Aim from a distance to get used to them. They are lighter
than a grenade and fly far when thrown. Note: She will duck when in close
proximity.
Annoy Ashley
When Ashley is on a cliff or still up a ladder, you can aim your gun up at
her. She will grab her skirt and call you a pervert.
Look up Ashley's skirt without her stopping you
Normally, if you jump down a ladder and try to look up Ashley's skirt, she
will grab it and call you a pervert. However, there is a location where she does
not do this. In Chapter 2-3, go to the lifts, after going down one of the paths.
Climb onto one and go all the way down to the other side, shooting the Gonadas
coming up on other lifts and the ones on the platforms. Once you get all the way
down, go down the stairs nearby. Go to the cave that is here that has
window-like holes. Be careful, as there are two dynamite wielding Gonadas at the
entrance. Kill them then jump over the wall and go up the ladder. Kill the
Gonada. Jump down, but leave Ashely up there. Try looking up her skirt with a
sniper. She will not grab her skirt and call you a pervert because she is too
high up. Note: There are more ladders where you can do this. Find one with a
large drop and it should work. For example, if you have already gotten past
Chapter 2-3, you can do this trick on the ladder you go down just after defeat
Saddler in the final chapter.
After you defeat Ramon Salazar, walk further and there will be an intermission
sequence where Ada will ask Leon if he needs a ride, and he accepts. When Ada
brings him to the island, she will hook a rope onto the top of a cliff and say"
I have some business to take care of". While she is saying that, look at her
skirt (especially when she goes to jump up). You can also see more of Ashley
than usual when you jump out the window of the church and when you get on the
jet ski.
Easy money in castle
Look behind every painting of Saddler to find 5,000 Pesetas.
Broken Butterfly in castle
When you are in the area where you are just about see the intermission
sequence with Luis dying, there will be a door that lets you know that you will
need another person for it. After you get Ashley back, return to this door. Give
Ashley a piggyback and she will open the door. Inside will be a lot of treasure,
and the powerful Broken Butterfly. You do not have to buy it from the merchant
or sell it for money. Additionally, the strongest Magnum is not the Killer 7.
When you tune up and buy the exclusive option of the Broken Butterfly its power
will increase to 50.0, far stronger than the Killer 7's 35.0. You can kill a
Boss in four shots.
Getting the Green Catseye in the church
In Chapter 1-3 in the church, turn right. Go to the small path at the back
of the church. You will see a blinking object. Get near it, then press X to
check. After that, first rotate seven times using option 3, another five times
using option 4, then one more time with option 3. You will hear a sound and can
now get the Green Catseye.
Infinite villagers in the church
When you first get to the church, defeat everyone in the area. Then, return
to the church and shoot the bell above. Villagers will arrive in a groups of
three to six Gonados. You can continue this process as much as desired.
Black Bass recovery in sewer
You can kill the fish and use them as recovery items in the sewer area
shortly after the beginning of Chapter 1-2. It is a little after the place where
you face the two enemies who throw dynamite at you.
Chapter 2-1 puzzle
Before the end of the chapter, there is a puzzle in the church. The puzzle
is a simple mix of colors. Three different designs surround the main design. The
colors are red, green, and blue. When you enter the church, turn to the left and
go down the little hall. Climb the ladder. When you are up there, you will see
that the way to the door is barred. You must get to the other side of the church
by jumping on and off of the chandelier. On the other side, there is a set of
switches. When you activate it, the puzzle starts. The goal is to turn the
designs so when combined, they are the same as the middle design. Turn red
twice, green three times, and blue once. When combined, it should create the
design. Then, go in and grab Ashley.
Chapter 3-4 puzzle
The quickest way to complete the puzzle when playing as Ashley in Chapter
3-4 is as follows. The layout of the puzzle's squares is referred as:
1 2 3
4 5 6
7 8 9
Press X on the following in this order: 4, 7, 8, 9, 6, 3, 1, 7, 9.
Interesting death sequences
Note: Save your game before each encounter when trying to see the following
death scenes:
Betrayal: When you are in the cabin surrounded by Ganados, shoot Luis Sera about
five to eight times. An intermission sequence will begin.
Chief Mendez: In the barn fight, do not evade his grab in the intermission
sequence.
Del Lago (before fighting him): Stand on the dock by the lake where you fight
the giant alligator (Del Lago). Fire your shotgun into the water several times.
Eventually, Del Lago will come out and eat you.
Del Lago (when fighting him): After getting knocked out of the boat, swim back
until you are just in reach of the boat. Del Lago will appear from underneath.
Additionally, after killing Del Lago, do not cut the rope.
Giant insects: Let them vomit on you.
"It": "It" has three ways of killing Leon. The first is when he is on the roof.
He will grab Leon and snap his neck. Another is when he has the scissors tail.
He will grab Leon by the legs and cut him in half. The finwl way happens after
the three cages fall and the final fight on the cliff side begins. Shoot him
until he goes underground. Allow him to kill you when he pops from under you.
Knife fight: At the end, let him press the knife through the cavity.
Molotov cocktails: In the beginning of the game, go up the ladder into the tower
and wait for the villagers to burn you alive.
Prison Boss: Have low life and let him kill you with the first hit of his
charge. He should impale you twice.
Regenerators: Both normal and spiked varieties have their own style of killing
Leon.
Two Los Gigantes: In the magma floor/pool, activate the switch and stand next to
the pool.
Trap door floor: Let Leon fall through the trap door that Salazar actives.
Wolves: When they jump on you, they will ravage your face. Once Leon is killed,
look at their teeth.
Leon's X-ray vision
After you unlock Leon's special costume, complete Chapter 1-3. In the
intermission sequence after the game prompts you to save, Leon will have a
strange dream that the egg hatched and is taking over his body. One part shows
it taking over his arm, but the secondary costume prevents Leon from looking at
his skin. Leon still acts as though he can see it, and the intermission sequence
plays through normally after that.
P.N. 03 reference
In the Mercenaries mini-game, play as John Krauser or Hunk. Notice that both
of the character's theme songs are from P.N. 03 levels.
Saddler comment
Listen closely when you kill the villagers. Some of them will say "Lord
Saddler" as they reach out just before they die. Note: This may only happen
after completion of the game.
Defeating the armored opponents
Try not to get surrounded by them. Make sure they are in a group. Take out
whatever rifle you have and shoot them all in the head until the snake thing
appears. Wait until they are all like, then throw a flash grenade to kill all of
them at once. This works well on all of them, and saves ammunition.
Bypass chainsaw man encounters
When you enter the town, kill everyone. When the second wave of people
arrives, also kill all of them. You can then go into the house and they will not
come out. Additionally, during the mine cart section of Chapter 4-2, the mine
car will stop and lots of enemies and two chainsaw men will load into the
stopped cars. To avoid most of this encounter, be in the front car and
immediately shoot the switch. The cars will start moving, and you will have only
have about four enemies to kill.
Defeating chainsaw men
When you meet a man with the chainsaw, shoot him with the shotgun and
incendiary grenades. You can also use your handgun, but you will probably get
killed. Note: The shotgun is found in the building that is diagonal from the
tower.
Defeating Del Lago (lake monster)
When you start, Del Lago is towing you and heading toward the pieces of land
in the middle. Steer to avoid them and harpoon him as soon as you can afterwards
(before it lets go). Next, aim a harpoon and throw it at any sign of movement so
that you will not be knocked off the boat. After awhile it will go away, then
charge at the boat. Throw as many harpoons at it as possible before it reaches
the boat. If you get knocked out, press X until you get back in. Repeat this
process until the intermission sequence starts and Del Lago retreats.
Defeating dogs
The zombie dogs are brown colored. You will find one in the beginning. The
zombie dogs will not attack you until you meet Chief Mendez. The dogs will have
parasites sticking out of them after chapter 3. A shotgun will kill them easily.
Note: Do not kill the white dog in the trap. It will help you fight the Gigante.
Defeating El Gigante:
Either weapon works; feel free to experiment. When the battle starts, check
out the shacks and get all of the items that you can. When he gets close, run
between his legs, get behind him, then open fire. When he is approaching you,
use the shotgun and keep shooting him in the head while avoiding his attacks.
When he roars and starts moving around, something will pop out of his back.
Before it kneels on the ground, get in close until the action command that reads
"Climb" appears. Use it to get on his back. The screen will indicate which
button to use to slash. Press that button as fast as possible until you get off.
Repeat the process one to three more times to defeat him.
When facing the El Gigante, buy a rocket launcher It will kill him in one hit
instead of wasting your other ammunition.
You will have to fight four El Gigantes (the big monster that breaks through the
door and picks up and crushes Leon). You will fight one by yourself, one with
the girl, and two at the same time by yourself. The quickest way to kill them is
to buy a rocket launcher immediately before the fight so that you do not take
waste space in you inventory. Throw a flash grenade to stun him, then run around
behind and shoot him in the back. You will kill him in one hit. The same can
also be done on most of the Bosses. If this does not kill them, it will do a lot
of damage.
To win easily against the two El Gigantes in Chapter 4-2, go up the ladder and
go down the rope on the other side of the room to activate the mechanism. It
will open the circle in the middle of the room and take an El Gigante into the
lava. Do not try it a second time; the mechanism will not work again. Just use
the rocket launcher to finish the remaining El Gigante.
To defeat the first El Gigante, avoid him for about a minute or two so that the
dog that you saved earlier can help you. When the dog arrives, he will distract
El Gigante. Take this opportunity to get the ammunition inside the cabins. Once
you get everything in the cabins, shoot all of your shogun or TMP rounds at the
El Gigante. Once you have shot all of it, switch to the weapon that you did not
use, then shoot him until the virus in the back comes out. Then, shoot with all
of your remaining ammunition. Note: It is recommended that you shoot El Gigante
with the TMP first, then with the shotgun. The shotgun rounds do more damage.
The second time you fight El Gigante, you will have Ashley. This is difficult,
because if Ashley dies you will fail your mission. Defeating El Gigante the
second time is easier because you have the big rock. Shoot the wood holding the
rock when El Gigante is roaring. If done correctly, the rock will hit El
Gigante. Just after the rock hits him, shoot El Gigante with a shotgun until the
virus comes out of the back. Quickly climb his back and start cutting the virus.
Cutting the virus this time is difficult, because the game switches knife attack
to X or Square. Quickly, look at the button that is supposed to be pressed and
press it quickly until El Gigante recovers. Do the same thing and you will kill
him, allowing you to get the items in the cabin's next place.
Near the beginning on the right side of the road is a dog/wolf in a bear trap.
Save him. After doing so, he will run off into the woods. Later during you fight
with El Gigante, it will show up and help as a distraction. It will take his
attention off of you so that you can collect items. If you fire, he will go back
after you, but will later still go back to trying to attack the dog/wolf.
Avoid fighting El Gigante the second time
After you survive the raid, you must choose a path to open; left or right.
Open the right gate and it will take you to El Gigante. Use the shotgun and make
the boulder drop down on his head when he arrives. Then, turn around and kick
the door six times to knock the chains off it. If you are still standing outside
the door when you see Gigante approach you from behind, do not panic; just get
out of there quickly. He does not attack for a few seconds after he comes up
behind you. The knife or a gunshot may help destroy the chains quicker, but
kicking works. Go through another door in the same fashion and somewhere along
the way you should find a key. It may be in one of the last huts you see toward
the center. If you are quick enough, you can escape El Gigante and make it
through the door alive with Ashley.
Defeating Gothic Illuminados
When you are in the castle and you fire at the Gothic Illuminados, it is
best to fire at their knees. They will fall on them and allow you to use a
suplex move instead of a kick. You will then throw them over your head and smash
their head in the ground. Note: In mercenary mode, the same goes for the rest of
the mercenaries.
Defeating Los Illuminados
Instead of firing at Los Illuminados when there parasite is exposed, use a
flash grenade to destroy the parasite instead of using your weapon.
Cabin: Extra ammunition
When in the cabin with Luis fighting the Ganados coming through the windows,
stand by Luis for a few minutes. He will eventually start throwing handgun
ammunition to you. He will continue doing this until he tells you to go
upstairs.
Cabin: Surviving
When in the cabin with Luis, push one of the bookshelves over one window.
This will leave you one you do not need to worry about until it breaks. Wait
until the bookshelf that was moved breaks and all the villagers standing
there come through. Do not stay and fight. Go halfway up the stairs and kill any
that are coming up. Allow Louis do all the fighting downstairs( he has unlimited
health ). When your starting to become overwhelmed on the stairs, go all the way
up. When Luis gets upstairs, throw an incinerating grenade at the steps only
when the swarm of villagers are near the top. This will set a mass of villagers
aflame. Some villagers will start coming through the windows. -- knock down the
ladders. If you see one approaching the window, shoot him and he will fall to
his death. Make sure that you have a shotgun to deal with the villagers that
have the viruses in their head. If all goes well and you balance your combat
with the ones coming through the windows and those coming upstairs, you will
win.
Cabin: Two paths
During the game you will get ambushed by a lot of villagers and be forced to
hide in a cabin. Block as many doors and windows as possible, then go by the
stairs and equip the shotgun. Zombies will eventually find their way in. Blast
away. Do not worry about your partner, as he can take care of himself. If things
get too rough, go upstairs and take out the zombies. When things start getting
too hot, the zombies will back off. When you exit and pull the lever, you will
have a choice to make. The left way takes you to the Chainsaw Sisters. The right
way takes you to a giant zombie. When you take the left way you will be in a
mine. Hide Ashley in an iron box near by. When you get down to the lower level,
the Chainsaw Sisters will appear. Go head back to the entrance and fire at them
with the shotgun. When they are dead, pick up the ruby and the Camp Key. If you
chose to go to the right, you will encounter a huge zombie. Drop a bolder on him
then run and shoot the chains off the door and get the Old Key. Drop another
bolder on the zombie to stun him. You cannot stash Ashley on this level. Make
sure that she gets first aid. When the parasite appears, slice it off.
Castle: Broken Butterfly
When you are in the area where you are just about see the intermission
sequence with Luis dying, there will be a door that lets you know that you will
need another person for it. After you get Ashley back, return to this door. Give
Ashley a piggyback and she will open the door. Inside will be a lot of treasure,
and the powerful Broken Butterfly. You do not have to buy it from the merchant
or sell it for money.
Note: The strongest Magnum is not the Killer 7. When you tune up and buy the
exclusive option of the Broken Butterfly its power will increase to 50.0, far
stronger than the Killer 7's 35.0. You can kill a Boss in four shots.
Castle: Knights
When you are on the board to get the King's grail, you will become trapped
in the place with the knights. For the first round of knights, use the shotgun.
If you have a Magnum, do not use it yet. The second round comes with feathers on
their heads. Use the magnum (Killer 7 recommended). In the room should be a
Green Herb and ten shotgun shells. Collect them and the grail.
Castle: Easy money
Look behind every painting of Saddler to find 5,000 Pesetas.
Castle: Flying insect nest
If you are in the castle and have passed the sequence where spikes come down
to you, shoot the red lights. After that, you will be in a big room with a giant
flying insects nest. A sequence will begin where one flying insect captures
Ashley from you. In the middle of the room hangs a big nest of them. Shoot the
nest with two magnum bullets. A sequence with the nest will falling down will
begin. Pick up the items that sparkle on the ground and sell them for a big
price to the merchant.
Cemetery: Eye in the sky
When you reach the cemetery part of the town, kill the two Ganados, then
stand in the middle of the cemetery. Look up and "seek" for an eye-like thing.
It seems to be reactions of the Illuminado's blood on Leon's body.
Church: Getting the Green Catseye:
In Chapter 1-3 in the church, turn right. Go to the small path at the back
of the church. You will see a blinking object. Get near it, then press X to
check. After that, first rotate seven times using option 3, another five times
using option 4, then one more time with option 3. You will hear a sound and can
now get the Green Catseye.
Church: Unlimited villagers
When you first get to the church, defeat everyone in the area. Then, return
to the church and shoot the bell above. Villagers will arrive in a groups of
three to six Gonados. You can continue this process as you see fit.
Church: Getting items
After you get the key after being choked by Chief Mendez, gi to the church
and kill everyone. You can then shoot the bell above the church. You should hear
"There! He is there!" and a group of Gonados should be in the graveyard. This
process can be repeated five times or less, but they drop items for your
inventory.
Church: Revenge
After you rescue Ashley from the church and the intermission sequence where
two Goth Gonados fire upon you, you can go back inside and get revenge.
Church: Ring bell
At the church where you rescue ashley, you can shoot at the bell outside and
it will ring.
Defeating enemies on bridges
If you are on a bridge and there are open areas, take out a weak gun. One
shot will make them fall off the bridge. However, you will not get any items
from them.
Defeating the Enemy Regenerator and Iron Maiden
You do not need a special scope to kill them. Buy the Killer 7 Magnum and
use it on them. After three or four shots, they will go down. Shoot it in the
sheet until there is a hole. Then, shoot its head. After that, the body will
explode then the legs will fall over and leave 5,000 gold. Additionally, another
way to kill the Regenerator creatures is to shoot their head or chest with the
shotgun. Then, blast a leg away; it will fall on the ground. Then, take out an
incinerator grenade (the red ones) and throw it at them. If done correctly, he
will burn on the ground and die.
Defeating flying insects
If you are able to hit the flying insect enemies in the cave area while they
are airborne, they will die in just one hit. Any weapon works, though the
shotgun is recommended. This will help conserve your ammunition. If they manage
to land, you will use about three to four shogun rounds from a Stock Striker

Defeating Gothic Illuminados
When you are in the castle and you fire at the Gothic Illuminados, it is
best to fire at their knees. They will fall on them and allow you to use a
suplex move instead of a kick. You will then throw them over your head and smash
their head in the ground. Note: In mercenary mode, the same goes for the rest of
the mercenaries.
Defeating Los Illuminados:
Instead of firing at Los Illuminados when there parasite is exposed, use a
flash grenade to destroy the parasite instead of using your weapon
Defeating human zombies
If you are low on ammunition, try to avoid these enemies. The zombies have
orange eyes. When killed, the parasite in them will come out of their heads.
Stay away from it and shoot it from a distance. If you are too close, the
parasite will cut your head off.
Destroying the insect nest
In the area where Ashley is carried away by the flying insects, you can
destroy the nest that is hanging from the ceiling. After it is destroyed, you
will find a lot of green and red eyes, and if you are lucky, even a blue one.
This is a good way to get the Butterfly Lamp filled with all three jewels early
so that you can get some extra money for upgrades.
Cheat: Full health during 1st El Gigante fight
Before entering this fight, have a green or red herb. During the fight get the
yellow herb, and combine it with the green/red herb, then use it to increase
your max health. Then you simply die, and do it again. You can max out your
health very easily with this trick
