Hi, I've got a question. In the Siena level, I've gotten as far as the art gallery, but there's an infinite amount of gunmen continually approaching the hole in the glass ceiling. How do I get rid of them and how do I get to Mitchell? :(

For that scenario, you can't reach Mitchell. You have to shoot those men at the ceiling, and then shoot the supports Mitchell is standing near, which will fall on top of him. Mitchell will then move to a different location, in which you shoot out the supports again. Every time he moves to a different spot, just repeat that procedure. Once that has been done, a quick-time fight sequence occurs against Mitchell. Then, level complete.

I've got a problem again, I'm afraid. :(

How does one navigate the stealth section in the Haitian docks level? I've shot that hanging crate and tried to get past windows and guards and everything, but no such luck... :)

I had trouble in the beginning Sienna level. I would shoot the tires out on the car and start to chase the guy and when I would get to the building, he would be in the process of kicking the door in and just stand there, and I would fail. Urined me off very much bad.

Blofeld, I will investigate your problem if you would like.

I played the game on hard the first time through and the game got quite difficult as I approached the end. Sounds like your going the right thing in the Haitian docks. Are you crouching when you walk?

Wait till you get to the last level. Now that is a hard one. Took me hours.

I agree with my Northern colleague. Most definitely stay crouched. Also, make sure to stay in cover. The window thing is surprisingly easy. All you have to do is when you are at each window, watch the guard that is there. When he looks away, GO! Hope that helps.

Well, the problem is, he always looks away, but then somebody spots me (from below, I'm certain) and the little Craig-y avatar gets frozen in his tracks as the alarm goes off. :(

This may sound like kind of a stupid question, but just out of curiosity, what difficulty are you playing? The reason I ask is that the two times that I have played it, I have played it on Operative because I am one of those types of people that learns the controls as I am playing so that might make a difference. I'll try it again in a little bit. (It is 1946 here in Fayetteville) I will make the attempt to fire off a quick post when I get through it and let you know the best way.

I've been going by the medium difficulty, but I'm not sure what it's titled.

I don't blame you, Sigma. Unfortunately, what I had to do was restart the whole system. Turned out it was not saving it as a checkpoint. My suggestion is to either restart the section completely, or restart your PS2. You'll know it worked because it will make you walking out the gate as a checkpoint. Hope that helps.

I guess I should ask: are you at the beginning of the level? If so, if you look out the window to your right, there is a box hanging outside with the whole starburst thing. When you shoot at it, you have to be on the other side of where you can see the two guards. When they go to investigate, while still crouched, go to the other side, move along the edge, and get to the door. Would anyone else like for me to write a full walkthrough?

Sorry, but I have been stuck there for a week now.

Use the scope gun, and get the ammo from the cases.

Then hide unil the gunner stops shooting.

You need to hit him 7 or 8 times before he dies.

Unfortunately all the rocks are destryed and I get shot.

When you get out let me know how it feels

Okay, actually, it feels pretty f@#$%^& (sorry, Broken arrow moment) good. Tell you what. Today is Thursday. Come next Monday (9 February), I will run through the levels you guys are having problems with. So, any other requests, and please do not swamp me and give me time after you have made the request. Also, hey Mr. B, how did your opera level problem go?

Okay, I know where you are, I think anyway. PM me with what you have done exactly and I will walk you through it. I believe I have given you incorrect info. If I have, I might have to run through the level again.

Okay, are you referring to the section with the smoke screen? Tell you what. I'll whip up a quick walkthrough later today. I got to get some sleep first (its 0600 and my daughter woke me up two hours ago)

Can anyone tell me how to beat that freaking Dimitrios guy?

I basically know what to do, but don't really know how to accomplish it. So yeah, you basically run to him after you've shot him full of lead and then press the triangle button.

But my problem really starts here. The buttons you have to press are given randomly and I never know what buttom comes to next and it's really frustrating. I've gotten through two rounds of fast button hitting, but I never seem to be fast enough for the third (and last hopefully?) round. That, plus when I die, I have to start all over again; shooting his goons and him, untill the game "chooses" to let me do the quick time event.


I swear, I never thought this game would be this frustrating. The Sink hole and now this?! Will there never be an end to my torment?

Anyway, I'm playing it on the easiest setting. Games like this made me ALWAYS play my first round on the easiest setting. Day'um!
