This file started 12/12/02 This file last updated: 12/12/02 I'll add what I can when I can. Since I can't read Japanese, its hard for me to provide useful information. 12/12/02 File started. I can't even beat level 1. But maybe someone else can with my help. I'll go in order of when things come to you: --------------------- Main Menu: --------------------- New Game Load Game Options (I recommend not fooling with anything in here) Controls (In Japanese, not very useful to the rest of us) --------------------- Controls: --------------------- Analog Stick: Movement D-Pad: Aim B: Cruiser Mode A: Assault Mode X: Combat Mode Y: Weapons Mode On\Off A: Left Weapon B: Right Weapon X: Mounted Weapon When your weapons are on, you cannot see the map. This is very important, as the levels are mazes. --------------------- In-Game Menu: --------------------- COM: Talking to people. I don't know if it has any use, maybe it provides hints. DATA: Maps, enemy info, VF info --- On the map, the green dots show the "closet rooms" as I call them. You must get the map information before you can use this. --- WEAPONS: Equip weapons, drop them --- To set a weapon, select it, and hit the set button. Left Weapon = A Right Weapon = B Mounted Weapon = X I think that maybe these are the only weapons you'll ever get. It seems that the rocket launcher can only be mounted and the others can only be set left or right. --- ITEM: You can heal yourself here SYSTEM: Options. You can load and save here. BACK: Leaves menu GAME END: um... game end. --------------------- LEVEL 1: --------------------- Whenever you come across a sliding door that opens into a little closet space type of room, go in it. It may have Repair Units, Power Units, and in this level: S-Vulcan weapon, Card, Card Key, and the terminal. First, go up the left set of stairs in the room and take the door right there. If you go the wrong way (the right way, coincidentally) you get some speech from Blondie. If at all possible, avoid speeches, because you can't get out of them. Kill the guy (kil everything you come in contact with, I won't be mentioning them anymore), then have some more talking. Follow the map and explore all areas of the level, for items and completing the level purposes. You now get to talk to girlie. Then some doors you can't open begin to pop up, so take the one you can. At the point where you are caught in a pincer attack by the two hover dudes, take a right to get the S-Vulcan, and take a left (all the way left) to get the card key (beforehand you will talk to girlie). When you're done with all of this, go back towards the beginning of the level. After going up those steps, and crossing a large open room with three little closet doors (which have two items, I think), you will be in a small corridor with three closets. This is where you want to be. The first one has a Card, and the third has the terminal. Get the card, and enter in the third set of numbers as the password, and you will get some map data. Now, I am officially lost. Any help would be appreciated. --------------------- CREDITS: --------------------- Thanks to GameFAQS for hosting this. This document copyright Brian LeBaron 2002.
