Now I am stuck. In the tall office building thingy, and I have gotten the big silver key. All I am able to do is go back and forth on the same floor. What the heck to I do with it?

Now for me. In level five, after getting past the tank and the jet, and then the joker guy, what do I do with the slot machine, after using the coins, cheeseburger and V slots, there is still the bomb slot that send out several bombs, but I don't know what to do with the bombs. I have tried letting them blow up at different speeds in different places, but I can't get anything to happen.

You have to be quick and jump up to the third chadelier and knock the bomb over to the breakable door. But make sure that the bomb explodes at the door in slow-motion.

theres a hole to your right..either drop one of your own bombs in there and let it explode slowly or get one of the bombs from the slot machines and throw it in there..you need to right the slot machine to the top..

I'm stuck on Chapter 5, right after you beat the plane and go down into the sewer, there are two of those poles with the globes on them, but they are too far apart to hit both of them at the same time, any help would be appreciated, this is giving me a headache.

You jump up and zoom in to make the shockwaves on the ground.

Yeah, Gran Bruce can be relatively easy if you do it right. When he starts jumping around and making a seal-like noise (for lack of better explanation), he's going to recover his health. Get next to him, Jump, zoom, and slow to send the shockwaves at him then stay zoomed and slowed and punch as much as you can while holding down on the control stick. If you get enough hits in, he'll just try to recharge again, and you can repeat until he's dead without taking a single hit.

also, did anyone else find alastor painfully easy? i'm playing on adult, and he's the only boss i've managed to beat the first time through. in fact, i only got hit once--by his flying swords--and that's because i ran out of vfx. did everyone have such an easy time with him, or did i luck out?

If you've managed to get on fire and hit him, just hit him until his shield is gone and he starts spinning. At that point, you can either use slow to dodge his attacks until he's dizzy or simply jump above him and zoom in to ground-pound, following up with spin kicks until he swings and you do a Viewtiful Forever. Then get out of his way until you can do it again. If he gets you cornered against an edge, just slow and jump over him.
And, although I found Alastor to be easier than the others, I certainly didn't beat him in one try. I say you lucked out.

I'm having problems with the Rhino Man in Episode 6- I know how to beat him, the trouble is just acting on that knowledge, without dying so much.

Anyway, what i wanna ask is:
I've beaten Another Joe (just got the game yesterday) and i noticed that he does that mach speed attack where there are heaps of him floating arround attacking me or blowing up. I have the second (forgot if i forgot the third) Mach Speed upgrade, and the descriptions for it say that it allows you have two of youself around or something. I use mach speed, but none of that is happening.
How do i do that?

Heres an easy, almost fool proof method:
1)Get close to him after he jumps (Avoid the shockwaves.) When he swings his axe, the three danger icons show up (On lower difficulties) just dodge up, zoom in, and punch around 10 times (If you miss one, still count to ten.) After that, get out of the way as he will swing his axe downward. Stay within distance as to repeat his jumping sequence. Repeat until he either tries to charge, or until he bites it.
Also some other hints in Level 6 (After trying that stage dozens of times, you kind of get good at this
Charles the III
1) He's as sucker for Red Hot Kick. when he's in the air not attacking, try to get a little above him. Plant a Red Hot Kick and he will go down. Quickly reach him, Zoom in and punch around 5 times, then get out as he will counter. Repeat until you get crispy bat legs. yum!
Another Joe
Voomorang, if used correctly will give you a leg up. When he does "Henshin-a-go-go baby!" and his clones start circling, get in the air and charge a voomorang. It should take them out in no time if you have a clear shot. When does "Henshin-a-bye-bye!", try to find the spot where the clones are set. Let loose with the voomorang, and should relieve you from them trying to attack. Hope that helps.

Pretty much, the key is using your Slow and Mach speed. Especially that long stretch that relies on drops alone to get you through. If you do get burned, snuff it out immideatly. Nothing like having 1 heart left, ready to leave, and you forgot your flesh is cooking. I know its kind of vague, but just keep those fingers on the R and L at the ready.

I'm at level 7 and I notice 3 switches that look like you need to zoom in and do shockwaves with. I try to do that at the highest distance, but I as I leave, the switch goes back up. I believe that you need to keep those switches down to go on the next part. What gives?

Any of you have tips for countering all of the bosses attacks? I mean, sure, repeating the same way would be cool, but say, for example, with the rhino axe man, missiles rain down and spread fire along the floor. Can you evade them and/or kick them into the rhino, much like the ordinary missles?
And is there an easier way of beating the shark? He's always doing that bite attack, and when he's recharging, i can't get to him in time. IS there also a way of lowering the water level again?
For each of the bosses, are there any visual or audio clues so as to know which attacks are coming (like how meta-ridley in metroid prime always pulls back before he charges at you).
Help for all these bosses would be GREATLY appreciated!
Post by: Bloodworth on October 23, 2003, 06:48:21 AM
Hulk Davidson has the easiest pattern to keep up with. If you keep a decent distance, he will make three jumps, and then throw his axe. Get him to land near and below one of the side platforms, and he then has a distinct grunt that he makes when he throws the axe. From the platform, you can slow, jump over the axe's trajectory, and zoom in to knock him with shockwaves. Then go for the slow-zoom-down+punch until you're close to running out of VFX, and be sure to jump away before your slow runs out to avoid getting hit by the returning axe.
You can repeat this numerous times as long as he's in his jumping pattern, although when he starts shooting missles, you have to focus on those. The fire bombs are no big deal really. Just Mach Speed if you catch fire to put the fire out.

The most annoying thing about the fire bombs is they force you to stop beating up on Hulk so you can put the fire out, letting him get his axe back or charge at you (which you can't tell most of the time since the camera is so close to Joe).

You have to use "zoom" and "slow" from the highest platform in order to press the buttons down all the way. If you use "fast", you will get it up halfway and get a hamburger.

Post by: Farting Bob on January 22, 2004, 08:26:19 AM
I play it the first time through, sure I save stuff
. But if it means replaying it, I got no prob with that! I hope this one sells good, since it's a beauty of a game, old skool high style. I try not read read too much here though, I'm near the end of episode 2 now. Finally a hard game again, good one! There aren't many hard games actually, bad thing, esp. since some critics asay some games are too short, yeah of course they are, they're too damn easy. Gameplay should be the key again, not graphics and stuff first place. Ikaruga is that other game btw, totally love it.I love Metroid Prime, one of my favorite games .... but it sucks that you're hardly damaged, only during boss fights .... sure Devil may Cry can be TOO tough, or maybe this game too in higher difficulty, but .... that's what I love about certain games, esp. these!

use mach speed. after a few attacks, one of your copies will run into the back ground and attack the box, aftera few hits the box will open, unleashing its goodies. it's easier to do if you have mach 2 or 3.
Post by: Farting Bob on January 26, 2004, 12:03:34 AM
I got one for you all. Yesterday I beat Hulk Davidson after a few tries. The only thing that still puzzles me is .... after he calls for those fire bombs .... there is always something that tends to hit me, and I can see it. It happens very fast. What is that?
I beat him because through my course I learned more and more about his attacks, and also that I can break his axe. It's always more fun to find out stuff by yourself.
But that one thing still keeps me puzzled. Next focus in Episode three
