Oh, and if I do a Professional run, does using costume set 2 count as cheating?


Not really. The only spot where armored Ashley is really useful is the Castle Water Room, especially when she has to turn the cranks at the end. The rest of it is pretty much the same unless you're really bad about letting her get hit/grabbed.
Tbf though if you just leave her standing in the middle of a shit ton of enemies, they will go for her first. So she can make a good distraction too, when she is with you.

That's what I was referring to.


Well if you really want to cheese like that, then yea it is cheating lol

I keep getting murdered in The Mercenaries. Is Ada worse than Leon or something?

Leon was the only one I didn't legit get 5 stars. Ada was second hardest. Ada (at least I remember in the village) can use her hookshot, which can help you get out of a bind and get a breather. Leon was just hard as fuck in almost every stage.

Edit: It's like every character but Leon had a bonus to help them out. Something that gave them an advantage; but Leon. Also makes you realize either; how easy Leon's campaign is in general, or how much the higher power weapons in the campaign make it. I mean Leon doesn't even get a magnum does he?

I don't think it matters if you want to get the unlock....don't you have to 5 star every stage with every character? I can't remember. I didn't get the unlock legit.

No, I just can't beat it. Don't care about the handcannon, just want to unlock all characters. These fucking Garradors and crossbow dudes are the worst.

Okay, finally beat it. Those last 30 seconds were super scary for me, as I was down to one hit and in an open area. Thankfully, I made it. Now onto Krauser.

I was playing through Max Payne before this but I only got through the first part before losing interest due to how the game did not mesh at all with the many platforming sections and the stupid loading times and cutscenes you have to sit through following every time you die in a section. Is it worth picking back up and finishing after this? I honestly really enjoyed the game's atmosphere, gun fights, and charm when it wasn't making me do extremely awkward platforming, but those sections are really prevalent from what I can see.

For what <_<

making a comparison to nazis to point out how the answer is not always in the middle

i even pointed out in my post how it was only mocking the idea that the answer is always in the middle and that it shouldn't be modded but this is gamefaqs so someone probably took that as a challenge

Oddly enough there's a hidden mechanic in the game that no one knew about until several years after its release where the game automatically adjusts the difficulty based on how well or poor you play. Basically it gives you a shit ton of shotgun ammo if your accuracy is low and drops ammo rarely if your accuracy is high.

If you are talking about when you fight the giant (after the big house fight with Luis and you have to choose the right or left gate to go through)no. At least not as Leon.

Well that's really stupid. If there's a breakable barrel somewhere, I should be able to go there.

There's a side quest Seperate Ways where you play as Ada where you kind of play alongside Leon's campaign and you can get up there with her hookshot.

Yes, I know. I've beaten it.
Why, though, would they keep that barrel in both versions of the map? Every other location that both visit is changed in some way, so why be lazy there?

If you want to make El Gigante fight a bit easier...you can shoot him in the face until the Plaga comes out of his back and shoot the Plaga with the Chicago Typewriter.

I know the game has probably lost a little charm but I've always done that for the sake of the unlimited ammunition.

Is there some other way to do it? I've always just shot the Plaga.

The only other thing I can think of is when you're fighting that one boss where you wait for the elevator...he takes more damage while frozen...at least from what I've been told years ago.

And if you want to go the hard way without a rocket launcher with the "right hand" (as I call him) there are at least three tanks, maybe four, you can use to freeze him with. And any weapon short of the rocket launcher and or hand/incendiary grenades will not unfreeze him with their firepower. So if I am not going to use a rocket launcher, the broken butterfly works well and you can usually get the six shots off and reload before he breaks free of the ice, if I remember right.

I killed him the legit way with my Broken Butterfly the first time through.
