A GUIDE TO EFFICIENT KILLING TACTICS:
The Beauty of the head shot: By far the most usefull tactic in the game,
the head shot is actually more easy the you may have orginally thought.
Either by design, or lack of imagination, every character in Syphon Filter
is exactly the same height. I feel that there are basically 2 types of
headshots.
Of course the only way to perform a head shot is to press L1 ( or whatever
you've assigned the Manual Targeting button to ), but there are different
situations, and tactics for each. Now the first, and probably most used is
what i call the "sniped" headshot. In this situation your target is either
above or below you, and usually some distance away. Your weapon of choice?
A sniper rilfe, or pistol perhaps. The target may or may not know of your
postion and your free to take your time for the shot by skillfully ducking
behind any cover should you need it.
The second is what i call for lack of a better term, "street sweeping" :)
. Luckly, everytime you press L1 the aim defaults to "headshot height" As
long as your on level ground, the only thing you'll have to worry about is
horizontal aim. This comes in extreemly hand in situations where there are
multiple bad guys in a general area, and your out of gernades. I prefer to
use an automatic weapon ( the PK-102 is a favorite because of the abuntant
ammo on most levels. ) and just spray in thier general direction of the
targets at head level. Chances are that your gonna drop 2-3 people really
quickly.
Headshots ( for me ) tend to be most effective with an automatic. The 9mm,
and the .45 are also good, yet the lack of rapid fire makes them more of an
alternative to sniping than a good street sweeping tool. The Shotguns are
nearly useless as headshot tools. If your going to use a shotgun in the
Manual Target mode, ( picking people around corners most likely) make life
easier for yourself, and aim at the stomach / pelvic area: your less likly
to miss, and if you connect with any part of them (even a hand or elbow)
they're gonna drop. ( i would too if i got my arm or hand blown off ) :p
NOTE:
An often overlooked tool for ( sniping )headshots is the tazer. As i'm
sure you've notice that when an enemy is wearing a flack jacket you can't
zap him normally. However the jacket, doesn't protect the head. ;) If your
not being pinned down by more than one person or feel that you can risk
being open for the duration of the zap, send a couple of volts his way. If
the recipent isn't wearing a flack jacket, you can just lock on to him with
R1, but if he is go for the 1 count.
GETTING THE GRENADE LAUNCHER ON LEVEL 1:
In the First Level, When you first start, take a right and go through
the doors to "The Place". Go through the hallway until you run across
the doorway that is blocked. There will be a terrorist waiting for you
behind the blocks in the room. Drop him with your 9mm., but after you
kill him, equip your tazer. Shoot out the window to your right with the
tazer, ( Don't waste rounds with any other weapons ), and climb through.
Equip your M-16 after you do so. Take a right and run over to the brown
block ( The dumpster ). Press the triangle button to climb up onto it.
Walk to the opposite edge of the block, and press the triangle button,
Gabe will jump up and grab onto the catwalk. Press the up button on the
D-pad of your controller to then proceed upwards. Turn to your left and
press the triangle button again to jump and grab the pipe.
Now shimmy across the pipe but once equiped. Press R1 to use the Auto-Aim,
and let them fry in Hell. Once you have reached the end of the pipe,
press the down button on the D-pad, and Gabe will lower himself down.
Walk forward and when you reach the box, press triangle, and you will
receive the M-79 Grenade Launcher. But be warned, It only comes
with 5 rounds, so use them wisley... on bosses.

GETTING PROTECTION FROM THE SHOOTING MONKS:
Had enough of being blown to pieces while you're
protecting the succulent Lian from the monks
Don't do it then. Instead, let her protect you.
Once you find Lian, stay a way behind her and just walk.
Whenever she starts shooting hide behind something
and let Lian do the dirty work. This mean lady will
shoot the monks dead (and then plugs their corpses
with a few more slugs before the maggots set in).
The best thing is monks won't shoot a lady, but will
be more than glad to swap a few souvenirs with you,
that's if they see you before they die.
So who was it that said a woman can't do a man's job?

GOING 'UP' IN THE ROCKET ELEVATOR:
How to go up the elevator....
On the level where there is the rocket
with the elevator going up the side to
get up the elevator you look up at the
top of the elevator shaft and you will
see a red flashing light with sparks
flying out. Aim the sniper or 9 at the
panel with the light on it and shoot.
You must be on the elevator and shoot
for it to work then the elevator will
go up. Thanks, C DOG

TASER GUIDE:
This is not really a cheat but for all the
people that do not know this, here it is.
If you use the taser, do not push the fire button
(square) once. Hold the fire button but first,aim it
to an opponent. Then wait for a few
seconds and your opponent will be on fire!
And one more thing. Taser is the coolest weapon!

TENNIS COURT HOSTAGE SITUATION/ & RHOEMERS BASE:
Toward the end of the Washington park, you must difuse the hostage
situation in the tennis court. use your night vision sniper rifle
and shoot out the lights to the courts. This will allow you to get
a closer aim/look at your target without being seen. This tip also
work's on Rhoemers base. Use your night vision rifle to shoot the
moving spot lights that trigger alarms. Do this carefullyonly after
guards are killed or no longer in sight. Good Luck.

HOW TO BEAT ANTON GIRDEUX(REALLY REALLY FAST):
Ok, I recommend using a special code(pause and highlight
weapons,then hold right,l2,r2,circle,square,x.)Choose the M-16
and press target. hold and watch for mr. girduex and his
flamethrower. then strafe right and left fast while firing
away. if he gets down, hide until he passes you. do not shoot until he
is near you! fire away at him fast and run like there is no tomorrow!
if he doesn't come down, keep him at bay by strafe between two pillar
near him. after he takes 6-8 hits in the tank, sit back and watch him
burn in vain. Nice cg movie, eh?
