VENDETTA (?) (?)

Complete solution:

The best weapons are obviously the guns but keep a constant eye on ammunition levels. There's plenty of extra ammunition around but it can be used up rather quickly if you get into trouble.

Avoid using grenades, they take too long to achieve a result (leaving you very vulnerable) and lack a heavy destruction capability. Ignore the timer as the tips should get you through each level with plenty of time left.

LEVEL 1 - THE DOCKLAND WAREHOUSE:
On the first level you're given a fairly easy ride with all the objects in each screen highlighted by a flashing cross on their position. This is level one feature only to get you started. After this level follow the instructions.

As soon as you start draw your KNIFE and kill the guard on the first screen, go to the flashing cross and pick up the WIRE CUTTERS. Next kick down the door and enter the room with the guns. Again, kill the guard and watch him explode then go to the flashing cross and get the GRENADES (you can collect 3 in all). Now go to where the next cross flashed and pick up the KALASHNIKOV AK-47. Go to the position where the final cross flashed and pick up the AMMUNITION to load the gun with bullets.

Leave the room and kill the guard with your newly acquired gun, go to the next screen and kill the next terrorist. Now go to the next screen and kill the baddie. Change to fists and go up the ladder and kick in the door, change to gun before going in. Shoot the terrorist inside and swap back to fists and pick up the RED VIDEO TAPE, the MAP and the FLOPPY DISK. Go through the next door with gun armed and kill the next terrorist. Pick up the BLUE VIDEO(!) TAPE (by the table with the phone on it) and then the COMPUTER CODE BOOK (by the filing cabinets). Activate the Code Book with your camera and go to the computer to bring up the computer code (it should be an 8 digit binary code). Now activate the floppy disk on the computer and enter the code you saw to receive the F-40 WEAPONS ARMING CARD.

From here go to the next room, kill the man and pick up the UZI. Progress to the next room, kill the terrorist and get the UZI AMMUNITION and the CAR KEYS. Go to the VCR and enter each video tape in turn into the VCR (the false tape will show the System 3 logo, the real tape will show the daughter's face and serve as evidence for the police). Enter the next room, kill the mad mullah and pick up the NECKLACE by the mattress and now return the way you came, killing all in your path (top up your ammo if you need to as you go back).

Once outside the warehouse climb down the ladder (swapping to gun as you go down), kill the terrorist and enter the final screen where the F-40 awaits. As soon as you enter this screen head as fast as you can for the final guard and kill him (you've got to be quick as he can really dish out the punishment). Now rest to recover lost energy and pick up the BODY ARMOUR. To finish the level go up to the F-40 and stand just behind the door, turn in the car's direction and press FIRE. If you've followed the instructions the F-40's door will spring open and you'll be roaring down the road to the first driving section.

LEVEL 3 - THE ARMY BARRACKS:
From here you don't get the flashing cross to locate objects. Follow the instructions to find them!

Straight away choose either gun and blast the terrorists hanging around at the top of the screen. Change to fists and kick down the door. Kill the man inside in the usual, violent manner and go to the desk with the computer on it and get the RANSOM NOTE. Go to the table with the chair by it and get the HANDBAG and now go to the filing cabinet and get the MAP. Draw your gun and leave the room to kill yet another man.

Enter the next screen and run straight for the man and shoot him before he shoots you (the body armour comes in real handy here). Rest to recover energy immediately after the shoot-out. Ignore the door on that screen, there's nothing in there.

On the next screen with the terrorist in the sandbag trench stand next to the wall so that you have one foot out of the shadow and throw a grenade. This should dispose of the man but if this fails you can run up to him and blast him with the Uzi or AK-47. Have a rest to recover energy (and pick up some ammo from behind the white barrel if you want) and then run onto the next screen, blasting away to kill the next terrorist by the tank and up through the boxes to the next screen.

Kill the terrorist and collect the extra body armour from near the boxes if need be. Go through the door to pick up the extra ammo if you want and then head up the path to the next screen, waste the dude there and enter the bunker. By the mattress there's the shoes of the daughter so pick them up for evidence. Now leave the bunker, bump off the re-risen terrorist and head down the path past the wire fence. You'll now reappear next to the F-40 so kill the guy there if you want, stand next to the Ferrari behind the fence and press FIRE to get in the car and zoom to the second driving scene.

LEVEL 5 - THE AIRPORT:
You'll be pleased to know that the flashing crosses have returned for this level so follow the crosses and you should be alright. Even though you near the end, things get a little easier although time is running out and there's a deadly surprise at the end of the level.

Select a gun and blow away the terrorist. Kick down the door, re-select the gun and kill the guy inside. Go to the filing cabinet behind the door and pick up the DISGUISE (all guards will now ignore you as you become invisible). Pick up the body armour if you wish too. Go back out of the room and run through the black doors into the hangar (the only items to be collected on this level, apart from the map, are extra ammunition so collect if need be).

Go through the first room killing the terrorist, then the next doing the same thing (there's ammo behind the boxes if you need it) and then through the next room in the hangar, blast the terrorist and now you'll come to a yard with one man and a windsock in the corner. The next screen is the aircraft where the daughter is held hostage on board. Blast the guard and go up the ladder, shoot straight away once inside the plane as the invisibility will be wearing away by now.

Go through the plane shooting the guards and you should come to the cockpit. Blast the final terrorist and pick up the MAP in the corner. Now activate the WIRE CUTTERS (remember them?) and pick up the BOMB next to the girl. Now clip the wires in the following order - MIDDLE (Red), LEFT (Yellow) and then RIGHT (Blue). You've now rescued the girl. Stand up and you'll automatically go to the final car driving scene, no need to go back to the car which is rather handy.

LEVEL 7 - CENTRAL PARK:
The final level and strangely things are getting very easy indeed with all of five screens between you and the end.

Select a gun and waste the guy on the pavement. Now go through the gates and follow the screens right to the end wasting EVERY terrorist you meet. When all are dead return to the statue where you'll see your brother, the Professor, crouch down next to his head and pick him up. Prof. stands up, gives you the briefcase and you've completed the game! The end screen shows a newspaper headline from the Daily Trumpet of you having defeated the terrorists! The computer goes wild, cycling through your inventory of objects and weapons and your energy level goes up and down like a yo-yo. And all while an ace piece of music plays along as your reward for all that manic blasting action.

DRIVING SECTIONS - LEVELS 2, 4, 6:
On these levels in between exploration and blasting you have to drive to the next section using the F-40's weapons to fend off enemy cars and helicopters while finding the correct route through to the next section in time. On these levels it's best to have a friend activate the keyboard controls (missiles etc.) due to the great speed and concentration needed. Each driving section progresses through 3 stages - grass, desert and snow - before arriving at a destination. All the levels use the same tactics.
