Chapter select
 
 At the main menu with the "New Game" option, press Up, Down, Up, 
 Down, Left, Right(2), Y, X(2) to unlock all chapters.  

Mini-games:
To unlock the mini-games, successfully complete the game under any difficulty 
setting. 

Disarms:
Every type of weapon has five disarms (B, Up + B, Left + B, Right + B, and Down 
+ B). An exception is the shotgun, which B and Up + B. Note: Disable the "Random 
Disarms" option or you will not learn any new ones.

The disarms are held by one enemy on each level possessing guns. Go through 
the levels, disarming everyone possible. Keep tabs of who you were able to 
disarm in a particular room before you die. When you continue, you will know 
which ones are remaining to disarm until you check everyone. Then, move on, 
save, and repeat. There is a shotgun disarm on mission 2 after the Boss. There 
are fuve disarms for all weapons, including the shotgun. The enemies will only 
unlock disarms for the weapons they are using, and of course there are no 
disarms on the levels without guns. Always use cover, duck behind something, or 
wait around a corner and be patient. Eventually, they will approach closer. Press 
one of the B combos their fate is sealed. Draw them closer one by one and disarm 
them or take them hostage systematically, while never exposing yourself. The 
objective is to not get shot, or go down in a blaze of glory.

Defeating Diggs:
Diggs is the ex boxer you will have to face in the later part of the game. When he 
reaches three quarters of his health, gas which will hurt you will be turned on. You 
can knock off his gas mask and put it on. Keep diving and he cannot touch you. 
His power will slowly go down, and he will soon be defeated. 

Defeating Hennessey:
You have to fight Hennessey three times before you can win. The first time he will 
have an electric riot shield, making it impossible to attack him head-on. In order to 
defeat him, you have to first get rid of the shield. To do this, lure Hennessey into 
the fountain in the middle of the battle area. He will electrocute the water and 
shock himself. Make sure that you are not too near the fountain or you will get 
shocked as well. Another way is to repeatedly circle the fountain, keeping good 
distance between Hennessey and yourself. While circling, there should be a gun 
lying on the ground, relatively close to the water. You can pick this gun up and 
shoot Hennessey with it, slowly taking out his shield. Do not worry about 
ammunition, as the gun regenerates. This may take awhile, but it is possible to kill 
Hennessey without taking damage. After the shield is broken, Hennessey runs off 
to hide, all the while mocking you. You will have to take out a couple of his GAC 
goons, but they provide no more of a fight than they did in previously. Note: You 
are now weaponless. Do not get too excited when you find the gun sitting in front 
of the doors -- it gets knocked out of your hands and out of reach before the fight 
starts. In order to defeat Hennessey you now have to fight him hand to hand, 
except he has an advantage, fire fists. Do not let him get too close to you, but at 
the same time, try to throw him as much as possible. Eventually when he gets to 
about half health, he will comment about how it is getting chilly and open a huge 
furnace door. This is where it gets a little easier. Throw Hennessey into the new 
area and watch his health deplete as he burns. Repeat this to take him out for the 
second time. The third time, he walks out completely engulfed in flames, at full 
health. Even though he is encompassed by flames, continue throwing him into the 
furnace so that he can take more damage and you will finally avenge your father's 
death.

Defeating Pinnacle:
While fighting Pinnacle, repeatedly press Jump to easily dodge his attacks. Jack 
will automatically turn to face Pinnacle before he jumps -- you do not have to 
worry about getting too far away from him. While Jack is jumping, he is 
impervious to all of Pinnacle's attacks. Do this repeatedly to tire Pinnacle out, then 
jump on his back and finish him off. You can also attack Pinnacle in front by 
punching and using low kicks, but this is not recommended as it does not take 
much damage from Pinnacle. 

When the fight starts, get a good angle then keep diving at the Mayor. Make sure 
you press the Analog-stick into him. If you just press Y, you will not dive as fast 
and will get hit more often. Once he starts taking a few massive swings at you, he 
will slump over while standing. Run behind him, press A to jump on his back, then 
press the buttons as quickly as possible. You should be able to put him down in 
about four to five strangles. If he grabs you by the neck, press the buttons until 
your oxygen gets full and you will kick him in the face. 

Defeating the helicopter for the last time:
Immediately when the level begins, run up to the pillar in front of you for cover. 
Enter wall mode and equip Shadow as your weapon. Spin out to the left and kill 
the first man. Exit wall mode and wait until the second man comes at you, then kill 
him. There will be more men. Stand back and kill them from near the pillar. If one 
gets close enough, it helps to use him as a shield. After men stop appearing from 
the helicopter, equip your M4 and target the man across the room on the raised 
section of the level. Do not target anyone on the highest balcony. Run at him while 
firing. Be careful -- he has a rocket launcher. Run side to side. Also be careful not 
to run past the fountain. If you do, the helicopter will be able to shoot you. After 
killing that man, make sure no one else is appearing from the helicopter. Get the 
rocket launcher that is in front of the fountain. After that, equip your rocket 
launcher and run back to the point on the ramp where it starts to decline. This 
ramp is near the beginning and between the two pillars you started near. Manually 
aim at the helicopter from here. If you cannot hit it, move forward until you can. 
Do not miss with the rocket launcher, as it will take even longer to defeat the 
helicopter. Use every gun you have and all your ammunition on this. It does not 
do much, but it does work. After all your ammunition is used, go left and act as if 
you are going up the balcony stairs. Go up them to the first platform and get the 
pistol. The last man you have to kill will also be there. After you have killed him, 
run back to the ramp and shoot the helicopter with all your ammunition again. The 
pistol will appear again in the exact location. Get the pistol again. There will not be 
any more men. Go back to the ramp again. Shoot the helicopter with all your 
ammunition. Keep repeating this until the helicopter is defeated. 

Defeating people without guns:
To defeat people that do not have guns easier, keep blocking and dodging. If you 
do not dodge, you will still get hurt. When you are in the prison, you will learn how 
to reverse a grab. This allows you to avoid getting hurt when they grab you. When 
you reverse the grab, you will throw their arms in the air. This will leave them 
open to attack (punch, kick, grab, etc.). However, they can still block.

Chapter 1: All pistol disarms:
When you start the level, a man will appear and try to shoot you. Lock on to him 
and use your dog (Shadow) to kill him. Shadow will bring his gun to you. When 
you kill him, another man by a crane will start to shoot. Lock on to him and shoot 
him with the gun you received. When you kill him, some pipes will fall down, 
making it appear as if you cannot get through. However, you can. Immediately 
when you enter, a man will come up behind you and say "Drop it!". You will throw 
down your weapon and turn around. When you turn around, you will not be able to 
move anymore --this will make it easier. You will be prompted to press B to 
disarm him. You can either do that, or do it with the Analog-stick. To get all of 
them, keep doing the level over or try it the old fashioned way.

Chapter 3: Spine break:
When you are locked up "Iron Point" and are walking around in the hall only two or 
three people will be around. One of them will run up to you and say something. 
When you run away, they start to walk away. As they walk away you can go in 
back of them and do the grab. However, they move too much and you will end up 
breaking their back. 

Chapter 3: Ledge in mine:
If you are having trouble getting across the ledge in the mine after the prison 
break, go to the wall with the ledge and enter "wall mode". You will scoot across 
and will not perish in a darkened abyss.

Chapter 13: Voice access:
Kill one of the men that has green on. You will see a man in yellow walk out in the 
open and run back. After a moment, the man in the yellow will run over to you. 
When he does this, and grab him. If another man runs with him, kill him and leave 
the man in yellow alive. Take him to give the voice authorization and you will be 
able to open gate. When you go over to the gate, a lot of men will be there. An 
easy way to kill all of them is to run up to them and grab one as a shield. The man 
you grab will get killed quickly. Keep doing this until only one person remains. 

Chapter 14: Fahook uses bottle:
After defeating Fahook once he goes into the back of the plane, when you get him 
very low on life he will drink from his bottle. At this time you should shoot the 
bottle out of his hands before he gains too much life. Doing this three or four times 
will destroy his bottle. Finish off his remaining life points and watch the 
intermission sequence.

Use the manual aiming to shoot things. When you are on manual, you can aim at 
the bottle. You will need to do this three or four times. When the bottle is shot off 
Fahook, you need to make Fahook go near the open back part of the airplane. 
Once there, shoot him and Fahook will fall off and die. 

Training: Unlimited ammunition:
At the beginning of the training, after you blow the men up with the canister, 
switch weapons to your pistol. You can shoot with out running out of ammunition.

Destroying the clown van in the cemetery: 
Use the canisters that explode and drop one on either side of the gate, in the 
corner between the wall and the gate. Do not throw it. Walk away and shoot the 
canister. Repeat the process until the van is destroyed. This may take a while, but 
it works. 

Throw a few canisters at the van without shooting them. This works best when at 
mid field. When you have them in front of the van, throw one at the van and wait 
until the can gets directly in front of the gunner then shoot it. This will take a lot of 
life out of him. A few more and it is done.

Flaming Fisted Man warning:
After defeating Flaming Fisted Man, the game restarts itself. This does not allow 
you to save your game, meaning that you either start a new game or continue 
fighting Flaming Fist Man repeatedly.

One Shot Kill:
At the New game screen press Down, Up, Y(2), X.

View All Movies:
Every time you beat a chapter you get a movie. So if you want to watch all the 
movies beat the game and when you want to watch the movie/scene over again 
for some reason like you really liked that scene or some annoying person called 
you right then. After you beat the game at the main menu go scroll down until you 
get to where it says "chapters" and select that.

Faster Button Tapping When Fighting Mayor Pennacle:
If you reposition your fingers over the A&B buttons, you can beat him in like a few 
minutes with no problem. Use your index finger to hit the A button and your "Bird" 
finger to hit the B button and you should be able to do it much quicker.

Defeating Sickle:
Although it's not easy, Sickle seems to be allergic to straight punch combos. 
Immediately start off with a punch combo. When he gets up, try it again. If he 
dodges your attack, wait until he's finished and then start a punch combo again. 
Run around the room a lot. Sickle can't be thrown that easily and it's best to avoid 
that route unless you get lucky. Dodge or block when necessary, but don't rely on 
it too much as Sickle can grab you when you are blocking.

Defeating Tattoo:
Tattoo happens to have two henchman who are invincible. Ignore them and focus 
all of your attention on Tattoo. Immediately start off with a punch combo and then 
run to the other side of the room. Once on the other side of the room, reposition 
the camera (by pressing Black button twice) and watch for Tattoo. If you can get 
him alone, take him on with a punch or kick combo. He is more susceptible to 
throws than Sickle. Once he is down, retreat to the other side of the room and 
repeat the process. There are two full Healths in the opposite corners of the room 
where the laundry baskets are. Make sure you have enough time to get in and out 
of there without getting trapped. Use the Dive if you have to get by Tattoo or the 
henchman. This is an extremely difficult boss battle due to the two invincible 
henchman. Just remember to be patient and wait for the perfect opportunity to 
attack Tattoo.

Defeating Enemies Easily:
The best way to defeat enemies is your best friend....shadow! Try to stay in a safe 
spot and keep low by pressing "L". Target the enemy by pressing "R" and 
Press "A"! Keep using this technique. If you lose cover while hiding, Tap "Y" real 
quick in the opposite direction of the enemy. This also works when you are without 
a gun.

Killing Flamethrower Guy:
If you wanna kill him but your having a problem killing everyone else, first you 
have to shoot him many times with the mark (use all ammo), then get a Spas 
which is somewhere on the ground, then you go behind the huge circle thing to get 
heath. He'll follow you and when he does, turn around and hold down Y (slow dive 
like the matrix) and shoot with the spas in the air and when you land and hes not 
dead, shoot all of your other weapons at him while moving in circles so he doesnt 
hit you.

Instant Camera Repositioning:
The games camera has a tendency to give you the worst possible viewing angle at 
times. In this instances, simply press the Black button twice to postion the camera 
behind Jack's back.

Getting Out Of Cells Easier:
When trying to get out of cells which have Health, press Y to dive out of the door. 
This usually lets you fly by any thugs coming into the door.
