In the training room, if you shoot the circle in the ceiling enough, it will break, revealing a secret area. You need good boosters or a light-weight AC to get up the shaft into the area, and when you do, you will find a new Radar part. The radar is pretty nice for the 1st half of the game.
After defeating an AC in the Arena a victory message will appear. If you want to take their emblem simply press START + SELECT. The emblem will be in your emblem list. |
Submitted by DavidStultsThis tip is a really cheap way to win Arena challenges.(Hey, a win is a win!) First, go to the old abandoned highway. You will start at the top of the talles building there near the corner of the fighting area. Turn around and carefully move to the corner. Once in the corner(the closer you are to the edge the better), turn around and face the enemy and shoot away at them. More likely than not, they'll end up outside of the combat area! You WIN! cheap but effective. |
Submitted by RobertBarnesThis isn't really a cheat, but it does help alot on the Submarine level, If you have enough money buy a pair of hover legs. That way if you happen to fall off the sub you still live(your legs hover across the water). |
