Some stuff I've tried out works, some doesn't... Level 1 - Get the RPG on the ledge, use the pistol to kill the lizards who appear, then go over to the box office by the cinema doors. Kill the lizard in there, then look at the inside wall to the right of the window. Back off a bit, then use the RPG on the wall through the window. Hey presto, you've got an entrance into the lobby antechamber. Go back to pistol, kill the liz and the pigcop, then open the doors and continue. You've then got access to pipebombs, armour etc. in the lobby before going into the cinema itself... Death row - when you first come up against the forcefields across the two cell block entrances, the three pigcops get annoyed and they will try and shoot you (not surprising really...). Try just standing there, and eventually they will shoot each other accidentally, until only one is left. This will simplify things later. I suggest positioning Duke at the entrance, then go and have a coffee. If you want to hurry things along, back off and fire an RPG at them. The field will allow the blast through and it will kill them. A pipebomb also works, but it has to be right up against the field. Oh yeah, while I remember... I blew up the map of level 3 a big as it would go, and found a set of initials in one corner - AMB, I think. Anybody know what this is about? (You have to use Follow Mode Off to move the map focus near enough to magnify the text to read it). End of level two - you know what's going to happen, so use up as much ammo and pipe-bombs as you can beforehand. You can kill the two pigcops who appear as the voice starts up by firing RPGs at the bars they are behind. This gets your kill score up a bit at the level end screen. One thing you SHOULD do before going into the last corridor and getting trapped is go back, get your health up to 100, then pick up two Atomic Healths (which you should have left alone for just this contingency) to boost health to 200. This health IS carried over into the start of level 3, Death Row, and comes in damned useful... -- "This self-destruct button doesn't work! I want my money back!" Robert (nojay) Sneddon
