Completion bonuses:
-------------------
Successfully complete the game to unlock the Separate Ways and
Mercenaries-mini-games; the Professional difficulty setting;
the Leon's Raccoon City Police Department costume, Ashley's
pop star costume, and Ada's black costume; the Mathilda handgun
and Infinite Rocket Launcher for purchase (for 1 million Pesetas),
and the Tactical Vest (for 60,000 Pesetas); and an alternate title
screen.

Successfully complete the Separate Ways mini-game to unlock Ashley's
knight costume and Leon's gangster costume. Ashley's suit of armor
is bullet and damage proof. She cannot get hurt by anything and it
is so heavy she cannot be carried away. You do not have to worry
about giving her First Aid Sprays, Herbs, or shooting Ganados trying
to pick her up.


Alternate ending sequence:
--------------------------
Successfully complete Assignment Ada and watch the credits.
They will be in gray scale. However, if you select "Yes" when asked
"Watch the ending movie again?", it will be replayed in color in a
smaller frame. If you watch it once more when prompted, it will play
is full wide screen color. They will alternate each time you choose
to replay the credits.


Game trailers:
--------------
Remain idle at the title screen. Eventually two trailers will begin playing
and begin to cycle.

Punisher:
---------
If you destroy all blue targets in the beginning you can get a free Punisher from
the Merchant 2 guns before you can buy it. This pistol hits two targets when you
get it, and five when you get exclusive. This makes it work well for crowd control.

Riot Gun one shot kills:
------------------------
To do this, you must fill the entire Firepower, Firing Speed, Reload Speed and Capacity
of the weapon. When you shoot a Ganado or a Los Luminados, one shot will kill them.
Note: The same happens with the Chicago Typewriter.

Killing birds:
--------------
Toss a flash grenade in the center of a group of birds. All of them will die instantly,
leaving lots of Pesetas. This also works with the Granadas when their heads are transformed.

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 J.J. (mini gun man):
------------------------------
An easier way to kill J.J is to first hit him in the head with a weaker gun.
When he is holding his head, attack him with a more powerful weapon. If he recovers quickly,
just use the same strategy. This also works on the military base during the Mercenaries
mini-game.

Crows:
------
Look out for crows. They sometimes drop valuable items and are usually found in groups. To
kill crows, shoot them from a distance. If you are close and there are other crows nearby they
will fly away. An easier way to kill a group of them is to toss a flash grenade into their
midst and watch the items drop.

Lava room:
----------
In the area where the room is filled with lava, enemies will appear on pillars with horses that
shoot fire at you. Instead of waiting for a clear shot to shoot the man on the pillar, simply
shoot at the chain that is holding the pillar. If one of the chains breaks, the entire pillar
will fall. This makes it easier to get through the room. If you queue all of the pillars to
appear and shoot them all down, once you shoot the last one down no more enemies will appear
in the room, even the ones that fall from the ceiling.

Sewer: Black Bass recovery:
---------------------------
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.

Eggs for Ashley:
----------------
There are three types of eggs, white, brown, and golden. Collect these, equip them, and fire
on 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.

Use egg to kick people:
-----------------------
Toss an egg at a Ganado's face. They will hold their face, letting you get in a kick.
Note: Do not do this in a crowd or you will get hit.

Mine Thrower ammunition:
------------------------
It is possible to find ammunition for the Mine Thrower. Kill any normal enemy with the Mine
Thrower to yield one dart for ammunition.


Extra scene:
------------
When Leon is being choked, he will be told that he has the same blood. Leave the room, then
return. You will be choked again by same person, only this time Ada comes to the rescue.

Rainbow:
--------
At the end of the game, as Leon and Ashley fall into the water on the speedboat, you can see
a rainbow for a few seconds.

Castle: Easy money:
-------------------
Look behind every painting of Saddler to find 5,000 Pesetas.

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.

Separate Ways: Leon's jacket:
-----------------------------
In mission 2, rescue Luis. The second time you pass the village after the intermission
sequence when Luis and Leon are carried away, blow away most of the villagers with a
grenade. When you get to the exit to continue the mission you will see a villager and
two others. Kill them and check the first villager you saw. He will be wearing Leon's
jacket.

Hidden intermission sequence:
-----------------------------
After defeating Del Lago (crocodile), after the intermission sequence, go back across the
lake where you got the boat. Head up the trail. An intermission sequence should begin.
Leon will be surrounded by wolves. Note: You can also go back that way and fight El Gigante,
but you must go all the way back to get the Insignia for the church.

Hiding the number of times killed ratio:
----------------------------------------
To avoid seeing a number of times killed, continue until you get to a chapter end. When
instructed to save, cancel the saving process.

Leon struggles:
---------------
When you unlock and start a new game with the second pair of costumes (Leon's gangster and
Ashley's armor), watch Leon as he tries to catch Ashley whenever you need her to come down
from a raised platform or ladder. He will fall on the ground on one knee, and as he comes
up from the ground, he grabs his back in pain.

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.


Professional mode: Easy completion:
-----------------------------------
The best way to complete the game in Professional mode is to first complete the Separate Ways
mini-game. You should unlock Special Costume 2, where Leon is a gangster and Ashley is in a
suit of armor. Choosing this costume makes Professional mode a lot easier. Ashley cannot be
injured or carried away. Use her for bait when needed. At least half the enemies will go
directly for her, giving you time to kill them and keep your distance from a crowd.
This also works well on El Gigante.

Hidden intermission sequence:
-----------------------------
After defeating Del Lago (crocodile), after the intermission sequence, go back across the
lake where you got the boat. Head up the trail. An intermission sequence should begin. Leon
will be surrounded by wolves. Note: You can also go back that way and fight El Gigante, but
you must go all the way back to get the Insignia for the church.

Defeating the giant leech:
--------------------------
Lure the leech back to the front end of the pool then fire a shot from your gun at the gas
can where your unlock the boat. The can explodes, killing the giant leech.


Hint:

Submitted by: dakwind(vaibhav)

kill the krauser with the knife he will die in about 2 knife attack every time he comes
to you than when he mutate hit about 8 times and he is done.

Defeating Regenerators:
-----------------------
Use the following trick to defeat 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.

Defeating Iron Maidens:
-----------------------
After the part where you rescue Ashley on the island, there will be a part where you must
jump into the trash pile. After the jumping sequence, you will realize that Ashley is
sitting on an Iron Maiden. There is a way to escape it. Quickly run towards the gate and
open it. Shoot the Iron Maiden to make it back off, then quickly get on the other side of
the gate and close it. The Iron Maiden cannot use a switch, so it is stuck. You can get
rid of it. The other one is a few feet away. Past the second gate will be a dumpster that
you will have to push. Push it, and wait a few seconds. The second Iron Maiden will be
engaging you already. Just kill as you would do to a regular one. However if you are not
quick, you can use the square path that is there to get the parasite in its back.

Bird nests:
-----------
If you are low on ammunition, find a tree and check for a bird's nest. Most bird nests
have ammunition, but some have treasures or Green Herbs.

Weapon upgrades:
----------------
When buying upgrades for your gun, always look at your gun information beforehand. For
example, if your gun has a gunpower of 10.8 and you see that the upgrade reads
lvl 2 --> 10.5, you are basically losing out and wasting money.

Mercenaries mini-game:
----------------------
The main monsters to look out for are the two chainsaw ladies on stage 1. Once you kill
them, they keep coming back. On stage 2 and 3 be careful of the guys with the chain guns.
On stage 4, there is a super chainsaw man. He is bigger than the normal one and has a
twin bladed saw. He is almost impossible to stop. He does not climb ladders. He jumps
to where he needs to be. He will run at you, swinging the saw. Do not run past him.
Turn and jump down if you can, or climb something quickly. If you really want to get
past him, try using Jack Krauser's transformation, and aim right at him. If you miss,
you are dead.

Easy Zealot battle:
-------------------
Go in the room just before the Gallery, in the castle. When you have to defeat the platoon
of Zealots and the Red Cow-Skulled Zealot with the hidden chaingun in the center of the room,
there is a way to bypass the chaingun all together. When you are chasing the Red Cow-Skulled
Zealot around the room, if you have the Broken Butterfly with upgraded firepower (over 27)
when he runs down the stairs to the bottom floor, move quickly enough to see him about halfway
down. Take out your Magnum, and shoot him. He will fall to the ground. Shoot him two or three
more times (depending on how powerful your Magnum is). This will effectively kill him, and he
will drop the Gallery Key. No chaingun dodging will be necessary, and you will save a lot of
ammunition.

Perfect score:
--------------
If you are trying to get a "Perfect" 100% hit rate, then you must consider the following. Be
absolutely certain that you are on target. Do not shoot from far off unless you are aiming
with the rifle. Also, do not do any "subquests", or go for any treasures or Spinels that require
you to shoot them down (for example, the Blue Medallion quest, the Brass Pocket Watch, etc.) If
you miss, it will count against you. Also, as soon as an enemy makes a "grunt" sound, it
indicates that they are dead. Do not get trigger happy, as this will lower your hit rate
percentage. Do not use the Chicago Typewriter for this quest. It fires too quickly. You must
be very careful to fire only one shot for most of the beginning enemies until you reach the
Castle, where two shots with the Chicago Typewriter will kill most anything.

Separate Ways: Ada's level 2 (Rescue Luis): Leon's jacket:
----------------------------------------------------------
During this level you will see a younger looking villager. This villager is wearing a tan
jacket with fur. After killing this enemy you will have the option to check it. Once checked,
it will say "This looks like Leon's jacket". Recall that in Chapter 1-1 to 1-2 when Leon and
Luis are captured, his jacket is missing from this point forward.
In mission 2, rescue Luis. The second time you pass the village after the intermission sequence
when Luis and Leon are carried away, blow away most of the villagers with a grenade. When you
get to the exit to continue the mission you will see a villager and two others. Kill them and
check the first villager you saw. He will be wearing Leon's jacket.

Easy kills:

Submitted by: cheatsbook
A good close-range combat tactic is to strike a weapon-less enemy before he grabs you with
the knife or a weapon in the head. Then, while he stumbles, close in and press [Kick]. If
the enemy is weakened enough, you will smash his head. If not, you will knock him down,
allowing you to shoot him while he is on the ground.

If the enemy is far away, but not too far, shoot him in the head and run towards him while he
stumbles. If he recovers, stop and shoot him in the head again. Continue to do this until you
are close enough to "kick" him down.

If you are close enough and do not want to waste ammunition, use the knife. Aim high enough
if you want to kick their head, and thus be able to "kick" them. It is harder to hit a knocked
down enemy with the knife because you will have to set your aim very low. However, you have
him pinned down and are free to shoot. Aiming at the head while the enemy is on the ground
will make things easy.

Defeating salazard with two hits:
---------------------------------
Submitted by: SilverFoxAlgeria

i did it uner normal mode,you need some weapons to apply this trick rocket luncher and any
other powerful weapon(eg:mine thrower) first aim at his ugly eye with your primary weapon
shot him there he will show up from his Megazord -just kidding- now equipe the rocket luncher
aim athim before he hide again and let him have it,now the big finish.

Los Illuminados Pendant and Spinels:
------------------------------------
After you come out of the sewers and are on the second floor of the room with the first shooting
range, go to the first chandelier but do not jump. Instead, throw a hand grenade into the group
of zealots (monks in black). There will also be a head zealot in a red outfit and a skull cap.
He is the one with the Los Illuminados pendant. After you throw the hand grenade, wait about
two seconds and throw a flash grenade, then immediately jump down. If the head zealot is still
alive, kill him first then kill any other remaining zealots. You will receive a Los Illuminados
Pendant from the head zealot and a Spinel from all the normal zealots.

Polly Has Some Good Crackers:
-----------------------------
Whenever you see a crow sitting in a tree or on the ground, try and shoot it. If you hit it
they leave behind several goodies, about 80% of the time they leave behind Spinel diamonds,
and they are good for a trade in once you encounter the merchant, and I did get 9mm bullets
from one.

Pants go down!:
---------------
When you are fight El Gigante "The Giant Ogres" as you would say, you are able to put his
pants down a bit. When you bring him down a plague comes out of his back, instead of jumping
on him from the front, you jump on him from the back. When Leon jumps he steps on the giant's
shorts and you will see it go down a bit.

Ashley's Panties:
-----------------
When you get to the Gondola' control booth, descend the first flight of stairs at the cliff's
edge. It's where you climb the ladder and at the top you find the Yellow catseye in the chest
(you must have a sniper rifle for this next part so you can zoom). When you climb down the
ladder, you have to catch Ashley so then she can get down. Don't catch her just yet. Just stay
at the bottom. When You look up, she will cover her legs and go "you pervert!" What you have
to do and take out the sniper rifle. Back up only a little bit from Ashley. Look up and zoom
in with the rifle. You will see Ashley's white panties with a little ribbon on it.

Infinite Health:
----------------
When your health is down and you are about to die in just one hit you can just simply run into
a bear trap and you wont die. Keep on trying, you aint going to die... unless you get attcked
or blown up.

To kill el gigante (the gaint monster):
---------------------------------------
Here is a great hint to kill el gigante(the big gaint). Dont waste your precious ammos on
him ,Just before you face him directly buy a rocket launcher from a merchant who will be
there at the saving point(near typewriter).When you engage with him just aim at him with
a rocket launcher and shoot him with that,he will be killed at a single strike.
