More Area 51 Tips: Area 51 has always been shrouded in mystery. Part of the governments "BlackOps" program, many things, both known and unknown, have been done at Area 51. Things such as the U2 spy plane and the SR-71 Blackbird were developed there.Also, weapons and other "exotic" things have been rumored to be developed andtest there. The big thing Area 51 is rumored to contain are the bodies ofalien life forms. In addition to the bodies, they are also purported to beworking with these aliens in developing new technologies. More Area 51 Tips: In this game, after the alien spaceship crash, in Roswell, in 1947, thegovernment has been covering up the fact that they have been working with theGrays on some new wonder weapons. At the forefront of these efforts have beenDr. Cray and Mr. White. In exchange for a few human subjects, they havereceived the latest in "cutting-edge" technology. Their main purpose is tohelp the Gray's to develop a super-weapon codenamed Theta to assist in theirwar. Of course, Mr. White become corrupted by the power the Gray's offer andDr. Cray wants to put a stop to it. He does this by releasing the viralcontagion into the facility and forcing the military to respond to hopefullystop this madness.

More Area 51 Tips: 4) TAKING CONTROL 4.1 The Controls The controls for this game are pretty simple. It is just a matter of beingable to use them for split-second decisions. More Area 51 Tips: 4.1.1 HUMAN LEFT ANALOG STICK OR DIRECTIONAL BUTTONS - CONTROL YOUR CHARACTER X - ACTION / RELOAD WEAPON
SQUARE - THROW GRENADE TRIANGLE - CYCLE TO PREVIOUS WEAPON More Area 51 Tips: CIRCLE - CYCLE TO NEXT WEAPON R1 - FIRE WEAPON R2 - uSE WEAPON'S SECONDARY ABILITY L1 - JUMP L2 - CROUCH More Area 51 Tips: L3 - ACTIVATE FLASHLIGHT R3 - MELEE WITH OPPONENT DIRECTIONAL PAD LEFT / RIGHT - LEAN LEFT OR RIGHT DIRECTIONAL PAD UP - TURN INTO A MUTANT START - PAUSE MENU SELECT - SHOW OBJECTIVE More Area 51 Tips: 4.1.2 MUTANT LEFT ANALOG STICK OR DIRECTIONAL BUTTONS - CONTROL YOUR MUTANT R1 - LAUNCH PARASITES R2 - LAUNCH CONTAGION L1 - JUMP L2 - CROUCH More Area 51 Tips: R3 - USE CLAWS TO MELEE DIRECTIONAL PAD LEFT / RIGHT - LEAN LEFT OR RIGHT DIRECTIONAL PAD UP - TURN INTO A HUMAN 4.2 The Game Screen More Area 51 Tips: Current Objective - What your current objective is. This part also will show when you pass a Checkpoint Distance/Direction to Next Objective - Gives you the distance in meters and the general direction of your next objective. Mutant & Health Meters - Tells you how much energy you have for these. Mutant power is yellow while the Health power is green.

Total Ammunition Remaining - The total amount of ammunition you have for that weapon. More Area 51 Tips: NOTE: Only the BBG doesn't have the Total Ammunition Remaining number since it regenerates Rounds in Clip. 5) GENERAL STRATEGIES More Area 51 Tips: These are general strategies to make your journey through the different areasmore enjoyable (or tolerable at least). These also can be used when you don'twant to look at the specific strategies and want to solve things on your own. Again, these are not all-encompassing and I know there are other generalstrategies to use. These are, though, the best I have found to work for me. 5.1 Save, Save, and Save More Area 51 Tips: First, I recommend that you set the Autosave feature to ON. This saves youhaving to worry about saving. If you don't like to do things like that, thenI recommend saving often. This is especially true if you are going to do some-thing risky or just plain dumb. No sense in starting over at the beginning ofthe game. In addition, if you missed any scannable items, it makes more senseto start from a Checkpoint that is close then to have to do the entire level toscan something at the very end. 5.2 The Law of Conservation of Ammunition More Area 51 Tips: While you are working your way down to the lower levels of Area 51, ammunitionbecomes harder to come by. This will be especially true when you enter thealien levels. Pick your targets and use short bursts to conserve ammo. Itmakes no sense to burn an entire clip into a mutant when only four or fiveshots would suffice. Besides, if you run out of ammo fighting the smallthings, you may find yourself in some serious trouble when the big thingsattack and you have no ammunition. 5.3 Grenades Clear Out Guests Quickly More Area 51 Tips: Have to contend with a room or an area heavily infested with enemies, then thegrenade is your answer. Chuck one of these into a crowd and it is guaranteedto help disperse said crowd very quickly. Of course, you don't want to standtoo close or you may become part of the problem and not the solution. 5.4 One Shot, One Kill More Area 51 Tips: Sniper rifles are great equalizers. When you have to go through areas all byyour lonesome, you need a way to equalize the odds. A highly motivatedindividual with a sniper rifle can do a lot of damage in a short period oftime. Keep in mind that you have limited ammunition for the rifle so make eachshot count. 5.5 Never Fight with Someone Braver then Yourself More Area 51 Tips: Areas 1 through 5 allow you an ample opportunity to collect ammunition andother equipment and not have to use it. That's right, let your current team(whether it is Bravo or Delta) do the fighting. Just find yourself a nicequiet corner and let them do all the work. Why risk your neck when others aremore eager. It's always better to be a live coward then a dead hero. 5.6 Mutants Need Love To More Area 51 Tips: Knowing when to mutate and when to stay human can be a tricky thing. Both havetheir advantages and disadvantages. This comes more down to personalpreference then anything else although the boss fights usually work better whenyou are mutated. Again, this isn't an absolute since everybody has their ownway of doing things. 6) SPECIFIC STRATEGIES FOR AREAS More Area 51 Tips: These strategies cover the 18 Areas you will be going through in the game. Youcan obtain the latest Objective by pressing the SELECT button. Objectiveswon't be listed since each area functions in a linear manner. This means youcan't make it to another part of the area without first completing therequirements on a previous part. In addition, each area has five items that can be scanned. These items arespread throughout the areas and most are pretty easy to get to. Of course,this doesn't mean that they won't be in areas that are subjected to high enemygunfire and whatnot. Scannable items will be noted as to where they arelocated and what the item is. More Area 51 Tips: Each Area will also have one or more checkpoints along the way. These check-points enable to the player to start from that location versus having to startat the very beginning again. This comes in extremely handy if you missed ascannable item or there is something else you want to do in an area but youdon't want to go through the entire area to get to that point again. 6.1 Area 1: Welcome to Dreamland More Area 51 Tips: You have just found out you have been assigned to a Hazardous Materials(HAZMAT) team. The first part of this area is some training and weaponfamiliarization. The last part of this area has you put your training to gooduse and prepare to go into the depths of Area 51. Follow Ramirez to the armory and pick up your pistol. Once you haveacquired your weapon, turn left and head over to the shooting range. Onceyou knock off five targets, Crispy challenges you to a pistol competition. More Area 51 Tips: Crispy wants to see who can knock down five targets the quickest. Crispy isa pretty lousy shot and you can do this with your eyes closed. Once youwin, follow the squad around to an area with some trailers. Remember thisarea for later on. You can practice pistol whipping the dummy hanging there. Once you aredone, go into the next area the squad is in. Before you join the squad,raid the cage and the area just outside of it for ammo and any othergoodies. More Area 51 Tips: Once you get into the hospital area, you are instructed to pick up yourscanner. Do so and turn around and go back to the body on the gurney.Activate your scanner and scan the body. You will store "Unknown Skin Type"in the scanners data bank. (Data bank #1) Before meeting up with the squad, it's time to scan a few things for thedata bank. Go back to the area with the large, blue cylinder. Scan it tostore "Canister Specs". Then head over to the area with the dummys you beaton. (Data bank #2) More Area 51 Tips: Go around the trailer until you get to some pipes. Crawl under and get tothe body with a syringe sticking out of it. Scan it for "Health Syringe" tobe stored in the data bank. (Data bank #3) After this, go to the squad which is now in the big area. Right now, theyappear to be fixing the elevator when the major tells the squad that anintruder (read saboteur) is loose in the area. Time to go hunting. 6.1.1 Checkpoint #1: Saboteur Search More Area 51 Tips: As you and McCan go back into the compound, you will see some soldierstangling with the saboteur. Unfortunately, they are on the losing end ofthis battle. In addition, a pallet of tires has been knocked down off theshelf. Remember this location for later. Follow McCan to the shooting range. He tells you that you will split up andsurround the saboteur. Head over to the other side of the armory and getaround the obstacles. Don't get too close to the windows since there areexplosive tanks on the other side. More Area 51 Tips: The saboteur will use those tanks to try to take you down. Let him have hisfun then peer into the doorway and get off some shots. The saboteur willretreat to the far corner of the large room. Either shoot the saboteur orthe explosive barrels next to him to eliminate him. Before you head over to the body, look for the laptop to your right. Scanit for "Decoded Laptop Information". Then head over to the area where thesaboteur was. (Data bank #4) More Area 51 Tips: You will see a pool of blue blood. Apparently the saboteur wasn't human andthere is nothing left of the body. Before you head back to see the major,go back to the area where the tires fell. Get behind the pallet and overturned tires to find a document lying on theground. Scan it for "SM-BB Turret Specifications". (Data bank #5) Go back to where the elevator is. The major will tell you all it is fixedand get ready to go down. More Area 51 Tips: 6.2 Area 2: The Hot Zone You are now entering an area that very few people get to witness. It seemsthat all of the military hardware and biologicals (both legal and illegal) aredeveloped and tested here. Of course, one of those viruses got away and it isnow wreaking havoc on the base. Your team is tasked with helping to clean upthis mess. This is all described in the cut scene from Deep Underground. Youare tasked with locating Team Delta. More Area 51 Tips: Once the elevator reaches the area, you will immediately be involved in yourfirst firefight. A bunch of mutants attacks a security teams position. Youcan either assist or wait until everyone else clears the area. After securing the area, collect ammo and follow the team into the nextarea. Kill off the mutant after the cut scene and proceed along thecorridor until you get to some dark office space. Turn on your flashlightand proceed with caution. In the next area, you will watch a scientist transform into a mutant. Onceyou have control, send him to kingdom come and enter the conference area. More Area 51 Tips: 6.2.1 Checkpoint #1: Mutation A few mutants will jump your team. Once you have cleared the area, headover to the conference table. On the table there is a document to scan.Scanning will get you "Alien Propaganda Sites". (Data bank #1) Leave this area and head into the darkened office spaces. On one of thetables, you will see a body glowing yellow. Once you clear out some roguemutant, you are told to go over and scan the body. "Super Contagious Body"is the result of this scan. (Data bank #2) Continue to work your way through the office area until you get to thestairs. Prepare for an ambush from above and climb the stairs to a balconyoverlooking the conference area. Go over to the sofa which should beopposite the door. On the sofa is a document. Scan for "New Employee Name Policy".(Data bank #3) Go through the door. A conversation ensues between Ramirez and the major.Apparently there is a way to restore power to this area. You and McCan arevolunteered for this mission. Go down the ramp. More Area 51 Tips: 6.2.2 Checkpoint #2: Mainframe Room Instead of following McCan, turn right and go under the ramp. In the backcorner a document is lying on the floor. Scan it for "Employee Reprimand".(Data bank #4) Go back and follow McCan to the door. Take care of the three mutants thatattack. Right now, ignore the mutants coming on the walkway overhead. Goup the stairs and you will see the two members of Team Bravo being attackedby mutants. More Area 51 Tips: Follow McCan to the door at the end of the hall. McCan tells you that youwill need to restore the generators before he can restore power. Depart andgo to the corridor that is flanked by two generators. You will see electrical currents going both high and low. You need to timeyour run so that you jump over the low currents and duck the high ones. Youcan afford to take one hit but its best not to get hit at all. More Area 51 Tips: At the end is a small computer area. Look right for a document on thefloor. Scan for "Unknown Artifacts Discovery". (Data bank #5) Go up the ladder to the left. You will end up in a small area overlookingthe generators. Go right to the control panel and activate it. McCan willthen tell you to flip the generator switch. Once that is done, power isrestored. More Area 51 Tips: After you depart, a cut scene showing McCan getting decapitated will play.After the cut scene, kill the mutant and rejoin the team (jump out thewindow to get to them quicker). You will then have to fight off a gang ofmutants. Follow the team up to the next area. Go through the door and head down thecorridor to exit this area. 6.3 Area 3: The Search More Area 51 Tips: It seems that Team Delta is nowhere to be found. The major wants the team toget to the computer and find out if they left a SITREP (Situational Report) asto what is going on. Although this area is somewhat small, there are more thenenough enemies to keep you busy. 6.3.1 Checkpoint #1: Hallway 5 When you enter this area, you are in for another firefight. The mutants arepouring in from a room down the hall. In addition, they are also usinggrenades. More Area 51 Tips: Once this horde is cleared out, go through the room and up the corridor.You will end up on a catwalk overlooking some security guards attempting tokeep the mutants at bay. Ramirez instructs you to go to the communicationscenter and see if Team Delta left a SITREP. Before you head to the communications center, turn right and go to the roomat the end of the catwalk. Go in and you will see a short corridor that isblocked by debris. Go to the fallen soldier and collect the keycard. Headback to the communications center. More Area 51 Tips: When you enter, be prepared to get jumped by a mutant from the right side.Once you clear the mutant out, go over to the console and activate it. Turnright and go to the desk to collect the keycard. Turn around and go to the door that has a card reader on either side. Usethe keycards to open this door to reveal a short passage with windows andflaming rooms on either side. More Area 51 Tips: Be prepared to take down a few mutants as you work your way in. You cancollect the shotgun and shells here. In addition, climb up the boxes inthe middle of the room to scan the document. Your scan will reveal "AlienAutopsy Photos". (Data bank #1) Leave this room and get back with the team. This will open up another areaon the lower area. Follow the team through the door and you will pass someburning areas on the left. At the second area, shoot the fire extinguisherto subdue the flames. More Area 51 Tips: Carefully enter this small area to scan the document. The document is"Pictures of Human Oddities". (Data bank #2) Then you enter the lab area, take out the mutants that attack, then go tothe far side of the room to the green cylinder on the floor (it is locatednext to the fallen power cord). Scan the cylinder for "Mite Jar".(Data bank #3) 6.3.2 Checkpoint #2: Heads Up More Area 51 Tips: Get ready for another firefight as you enter the next large area. Help todefend against the mutant attack. Mutants will come from both the groundlevel and the upper platforms. Once you have cleared them out, head for thestairs opposite the burning stairs. As soon as you move, a cut scene will show a portion of the wall collapsing.A large number of Mites will come out of the wall and attack. These thingsare small and quick so be ready to let loose on them and keep moving around. More Area 51 Tips: 6.3.3 Checkpoint #3: Crispy Hacks Once you dispose of the mites, Ramirez will lead you to a room where Crispycan override the security system. Unfortunately, he needs the proper key-card to do this. Guess what...you just volunteered to retrieve said card. Go over the catwalk to the door. The power is down again so be ready foraction. Three mutants will attempt to make "friends" with you, return thekind gesture. Go right down the wrecked hallway. At the doorway, look downto collect the arm. Go further back in the room and look left. You will see a pool of blue gooon the floor. Get out the scanner and scan it. You will get "UnknownLifeform" as the result. (Data bank #4) More Area 51 Tips: You may have to cap a couple more mutants before you get to the armory door.Once you get through the first door, you will see a mutant munching on some-body within the armory. Use the hand you "borrowed" on one scanner and putyour hand on the other to open the door. Take out the mutant as it comes out to feast on you. When you enter, goright to take care of the other mutant lurking in the locker area. Thenshoot the glass over all the weapons and collect everything you can. More Area 51 Tips: After this, look to the right of the entrance for a wall with cubbyholes.The security card is in one of these holes. Once you get the card, go tothe desk next to the entrance and scan the document. This will get you the"Vechtol Work Order". (Data bank #5) Take out any mutant roadblocks and get back to Crispy with the card. Acountdown will start at 45 seconds. You must keep the mutants away fromCrispy while he hacks the system. If Crispy has to fight, the clock goes upinstead of down. More Area 51 Tips: After the system is hacked, escape through the door on the right to finishthis area. 6.4 Area 4: They Get Bigger Looks like things just went from bad to worse. You must find a way out of thecomplex while surrounded by mutants and other strange creatures. The SITREPfrom Team Delta doesn't look good and you are knee-deep in the hoopla. Youwill now get to encounter Black Op soldiers for this area. Move only in be-tween waves of enemy soldiers. More Area 51 Tips: 6.4.1 Checkpoint #1: Overrun That's right, you guessed it, another firefight. This time, you will havingto work your way around the room to move that big crane around to open up anescape route. First, after the first wave is taken care of, go into theroom on the right and scan the document. It is "Experiment VolunteerRequest". (Data bank #1) More Area 51 Tips: Go to the opposite wall (from the office above) and follow it around. Youwill see a red pipe with a document under it. Scan it for "Star Chart andPyramid Alignment". (Data bank #2) This next one will be a little dangerous. You must work your way up theramp (where all the mutants are coming down). You had better be at fullhealth and maximum ammo for this. Before you activate the crane at thepanel, turn left into the dark room. More Area 51 Tips: Take out the mutant and go to the far, left corner to scan a document. Thiswill reveal "Crop Circle Documents". (Data bank #3) You may have to fight your way out of this room. Either way, go to thecrane control panel and activate it. It will move the crane backwards. Godown the ramp and head for the ladder to the left. More Area 51 Tips: Climb the ladder and carefully navigate along the I-beams. At the firstjunction, turn left. Look left and down at the next junction to see thedocument laying there. Scan for "Atlantis Map". (Data bank #4) 6.4.2 Checkpoint #2: Trapped Backtrack to the first I-beam you were on and follow it to the end. Jumpacross to the platform on the other side. Drop down and go into the controlroom to activate the hanger door and open it. The crane will move back toits original position. More Area 51 Tips: Fight it out with the mutants that storm the control room. Then go backinto the hanger and continue the fight. Crispy and Ramirez have manage toget to the other side of the door but you are trapped since the door closedagain. A cut scene shows Crispy and Ramirez being used to "paint" thewindow. 6.4.3 Checkpoint #3: Alone To escape, look left and you will see some planks leading up to aventilation shaft. Make sure you are well equipped with ammo and otherdestructive things then head through the shaft. More Area 51 Tips: There is a drop-down to the other side of the hanger door. When you dropdown, you will encounter Crispy but he is no mood to talk. Instead, he hasmutated and is coming after you. 6.4.4 Boss Battle: Crispy Crispy is fast, mean, and he's out for blood. First of all, make sure you light is on. Since it is so dark, Crispy cansneak around you in the dark. Might as well give yourself some kind ofchance. More Area 51 Tips: "Shoot and Scoot" are the name of the game. Get off a burst then movearound to prevent a counterstrike. Use area effect weapons (namely grenades) only when there is some distancebetween you and Crispy. Since the area is so tight, it will amplify the"splash" damage done by grenades. Once you bring Crispy down, go to the shelves on the other side of theroom. On one of the boxes is a document. Scan for "Saucer ShipSchematics". (Data bank #5) More Area 51 Tips: Exit this area to find Team Delta. 6.5 Area 5: The Last Stand Looks like Team Bravo has been wiped out and you are the last survivor. Yourgoal is to find Team Delta and hook up with them. When you enter this hallway, move carefully since there are mutants waitingaround the corner. Once they are cleared out, look to the left wall for alarge sign (before you do this, you may have to clear out some mutants inthe communications room). Scan the sign to reveal "Groom Lake WeaponsTesting Facility". (Data bank #1) Go down into the communications room and clear out any stragglers. Go overto the console to get in touch with Team Delta. Exit this area through thedoor and head down the stairs. More Area 51 Tips: 6.5.1 Checkpoint #1: Team Delta Be prepared for a fight as you go down the stairs into the next part. Youwill see a group of soldiers on the other side busy blasting mutants. Getover to them. You have finally hooked up with Team Delta. They welcome you aboard andgive you your first assignment. They want you to go upstairs to the armoryand get some ammunition for the gun turrets. More Area 51 Tips: Head upstairs into the armory. When you approach a metal door, you willhead a mutant pounding on it to get in. If you have a grenade, toss it atthe door to quiet the mutant down. Before collecting the ammunition, go in-between the shelves and look to theright for a Large Health pack. Right around it, on the same shelf, is adocument begging to be scanned. Scan it for "KGB Research Information".(Data bank #2) Go out from between the shelves and go left to the corner to collect theammunition. Head back down the stairs and load the turrets. You may haveto kill a few mutants who get in your way. You will have to help support Team Delta in their extermination efforts ofthe mutants. Once you help take out another wave, you are assigned the jobof getting communications back up. More Area 51 Tips: As you are facing the way you entered this area, go left and at the base ofthe stairs is a broken grill. Crawl through and you will see a body, brokenwire on the wall, and a document. Scan the document for "Public EbolaTest". (Data bank #3) Looks like you're going to need some tools to repair the wire. Head backupstairs to the armory. This time, be ready for a mutant attack from beyondthat steels door they were pounding on earlier. Once you clear them out, gointo that room and get the tools. More Area 51 Tips: 6.5.2 Checkpoint #2: They Keep Coming Head back to where the broken wire was and repair it. Go to thecommunications panel in the pit and contact the major. He basicallyexplains there isn't much he can do and for the team to do their best infinding their way out. Such a big help. Chew comes over and tells you he has an idea. Follow him to the secondarmory taking out mutants along the way. More Area 51 Tips: When you get to the second armory, chew will open the door and proceed downthe corridor. You go ahead and make a right into the first room. Go to theshelf and scan the docs for "Congressional Disinformation". (Data bank #4) Exit the room and head to where Chew blasted a hole in the wall. He willtell you that he will keep the mutants at bay while you go in and collectthe explosives. More Area 51 Tips: When you get to the boxes on the right, use the wood ramp to climb up to thetop of the boxes. Then get on the overhead pipes and go along until you areover the next room. Drop down and go to the small opening. Be prepared for a mite attack. Oncethe critters are cleared out, go around the boxes to the explosives room andcollect the explosives. To exit the area, go up the wooden ramp onto the boxes. You are going todetour for another scan before you hook up with Chew. More Area 51 Tips: Turn right and climb up those boxes. Go to the highest boxes and turn backto where you dropped down into this part. Jump over to those boxes and getup on the pipes. Look to the left corner and you will see a document lying on top of someboxes. Head over and scan the document for "Unidentified MetallicSubstance". (Data bank #5) Go back to the exit and follow Chew. When he gets to the back wall, givehim the explosives and he will set them. Then head back to the bunker area. More Area 51 Tips: You are now assigned to get in one of the gun turrets. It doesn't matterwhich one you get into. Once in, aim at where the explosives were plantedand shoot them to blow out the wall. Be prepared for a mad rush of mutants. The gun turret should make shortwork of them. Once you are done, hop down and follow the team to thebreach. More Area 51 Tips: Unfortunately, a much bigger and badder mutant is blocking the path. Thecut scene shows this mutant basically take out Team Delta like it took outTeam Bravo. You and the last survivor go through the hole in the wall. The cut scene shows you both blacking out. When you awake, you aresurrounded by mutants. Worse still, the contagion is now in your body andyou have mutated. You exit this area as a new mutant. 6.6 Area 6: One of Them More Area 51 Tips: Well, things have gone from bad to worse. Not only are both teams gone, youare now a mutant with a totally different outlook on things. You need to finda way undo this mutation. Note that Edgar will now start communicating withyou through various bodies. This will continue until you meet up with him. You will end up in a room with other mutants. Instead of welcoming you, theother mutants will attack. This is fine since killing them increases yourlevel of mutagen and keeps you alive. More Area 51 Tips: Eventually a ladder will drop down. Climb this ladder and go into the nextpart. Some more mutants are there to "help" you out as you work your wayaround the room to the elevator. 6.6.1 Checkpoint #1: Out of the Frying Pan Follow the stairs down to a door. Go through this door then exit throughthe next door on the right. Dispose of the soldier and head for the chamber. More Area 51 Tips: Once you have been brought back to "normal" again, go behind this chamberand scan the document for "Green River Launch Complex". (Data bank #1) Head for the exit to this room. Before you get to the door, a monitor withDr. Cray will drop down telling you to head to him to be "fixed". Once thiscut scene is over, go to the right of the door to scan the document "ProjectBlue Book". (Data bank #2) Exit this room and get prepared for a major fight against Black Opssoldiers. Work your way down to the end of the corridor. When you see themedical cart on the right, look for the document to scan. Scanning revealsthe "Gray Experiment Chat Log".

As the scene fades, youdon't know what is going to happen next.

Great for picking off those nastyautomatic turrets and enemy forces that are beyond the reach of your otherweapons. 8) ENEMIES There aren't a whole lot of enemy types to deal with. Unfortunately, the typesyou do have to deal with can cause a lot of hate and discontent if you don'ttake them seriously. 8.1 Scientists These guys are pretty easy to take down. They usually rush headlong into yourfire. 8.2 Security Guards These guys are a little more dangerous. They still know how to use theirweapons to great effect. 8.3 Leapers When a human is fully mutated, this is the result. These things are quick andtheir claw attacks are extremely strong. They can also climb over and ontomost objects. 8.4 Black Ops Soldier A genetic hybrid from the combination of alien and human DNA. They makeefficient killing machines and are extremely deadly. 8.5 Black Ops Leader Even more deadly then the soldiers due to the fact that they use cloakingdevices which makes them nearly impossible to see. 8.6 Grays These are the creatures behind all the research going on at Area 51. Althoughthey don't tend to fight, they have powerful shields and they can teleportBlack Ops soldiers in to assist them. 9) CHEATS 9.1 Scan yourself -> Push the right analog stick all the way down (only if controls are not inverted, if it is, then push it up) until your scanner stops moving. (It would look as if you are looking at your own feet). Now start to scan yourself. It will give you some information about Cole .Plus you get to hear him say "Oh my God!" 9.2 Secret tapes -> Find and scan all five databank items in a level to unlock the secret of that level.The final secret of the game will be unlocked when all prior secrets have been found. 9.3 Sharks with Machine Gun Heads (and Meson Cannon) the level, where you can see the monorail you entered the level from out the window. Push the computer console there and it will say "Lifter Engaged". stand on it. Run all the way to the back of it and you will be warped to a weird room with sharks that have machine guns attached to their heads.If you kill all 3 sharks (I used the BBG, about 7 bursts each), a wide array of goodies appears on your way back to the monorail: Rocket Launcher).Once you return through the portal back to the bay area, do not try to get back on the monorail, or you'll be instantly killed! 9.4 Upgrading The Alien Grenade -> In the stage Life or Death, there is a small key on a dead soldier in the damaged lift where Cole starts the stage off at. Grab it to open the small lockers in the stage. One of the small lockers in the first power conduit pit has a databank item that upgrades the alien grenade (it now homes in on enemies). 9.5 View in game Cut-Scenes in Mutant Vision -> Right before you are about to experience an in game cut scene (doesn't work on movies of course) push up on D-pad to change into mutant form and then activate the cut scene to view the cut scene in mutant vision.
