p>DAY TWO - FUSION
N.Y. POLICE DEPT: The day starts here with an automatic sequence
in which Aya speaks to Daniel, a few other NYPD guys, and the Chief.
Once you get control of Aya there is a save point in the lower left of
the room, but if you already saved it at the beginning of the day then
there is no need to use it now...just remember it for later. Now leave
the offices by the door next to the one that leads to the Chief's
office. Outside in the hallway enter the first door on your left to
enter the locker room. Open the second locker from the right at the
top of the screen to get some new body armor, and open the one second
from the left to get an 90HP+ vial. There is nothing more of interest
here so it's back to the main hallway. Take the next left which
happens to be a stairway going down, and once you reach the bottom go
southwest and enter the door on the left. Inside open the chest to
your right for an Upgrade Tool, open the chest in the northeast corner
for a 45HP+ vial, and open the chest to the left of Wayne Garcia (the
man at the counter) to get a 6 bullet clip. Talk to Wayne and Torres
Owens enters the room and takes over...he also gives Aya a nice new
gun! Now you can leave this room once Wayne explains the weapon
upgrade process (whenever you find Trading Cards on your journey bring
them to Wayne to get special favors in return). Go back up the stairs
outside and you will see Ben (Daniel's son), a child dressed in bright
red clothing...walk up to him to start a little sequence. Once the
sequence is over go back to the Chief's office and speak to him...this
triggers the Press Conference over the opera incident to begin session.
This sequence is automatic and once it is over you are back in the
Chief's office getting yelled at. When all is said and done leave the
offices and when you're in the main hallway enter the double doors on
the right. Now exit the police station. A map of New York comes up
and you have 3 location selections...just choose the Museum for now.
MUSEUM: Aya and Daniel have a nice little conversation on the
way, and once you arrive just follow Daniel up to the entrance. Talk
to the old geezer who then lets you inside. He opens up an iron gate
that locks a stairwell and allows Daniel to go on up. It takes Daniel
about an hour to make it up the stairway (I've never witnessed such
slow walking...) so go take a piss or something while you wait. Once
he FINALLY makes it don't even bother following him because you can't
at the moment. Instead run over to the front of the square desk to the
left and search there...after finding what you were looking for you can
now go upstairs (feel free to save the game before you go up at the
phone on the left wall). Upstairs you see Daniel so run over to him
and you will both enter a museum office. A HUGE talking scene follows
and once it is over you will see the map again...choose the NYPD.
N.Y. POLICE DEPT: Back at the station, follow Daniel out into the
main hall. Go north to the far end and enter the door on the right
(next to Daniel). You are back in the press conference room where you
speak to the Chief. Once you have finished leave the station again and
witness Daniel's amazing driving skills in a cool FMV! The rest of the
trip is automatic and you end up in Central Park.
CENTRAL PARK: Once you arrive Daniel will run into a problem at
the gate...a certain reason he cannot enter the park. So it's all up
to Aya...no problem right? Okay, go through the main gate and then go
south until you get to a save point...DEFINATELY save as this is a
random battle area! Now follow the U-shaped path and in the curve of
the U search in the trees for a hard to see chest that contains a 6
bullet clip. You may have to fight snakes and such on the way, but
they are simple and pose absolutely no threat. Anyway...once you reach
the next screen go right and there are three gates leading into the
Central Park Zoo. The middle one is the entrance, but search in the
darkness of the other two gates for chests that contain a 45HP+ vial
and a 6 bullet clip. Now enter the middle gate and open the chest
to the left that has a new gun inside. Now proceed to the northwest up
some steps to a save point next to a door (save if you wish). Inside
the room that the door leads to you can open a drawer in the upper
right to receive a key, a cabinet at the top of the room to get some
new armor, and you can move the stretcher out of the way so that you
can open a dresser and get ANOTHER new gun! Phew...what a room. Now
leave the room and go right until you reach a new door, enter it now
that you have the key. Inside go through the shattered glass to your
left and follow the little path around the glass hallway until you
reach an area with three chests. The chests contents are a 90HP+ vial,
a poison protection potion (lessens the chances that an enemy can
poison you), and a body armor power-up. Now you have gotten everything
of interest from this room so leave the area and go right again once
you are outside. You will see an entrance to another area above you,
but ignore it for now and get the chest hidden behind the column as it
contains a 15 bullet clip. Now you have a choice...you can either go
through the entrance now and get to another part of the game or take
the longer route and pick up a bunch of items...it's up to you. If you
wish to enter now, just do so and follow the left path to end up at the
next part of the game. Now for the longer path...ignore the entrance
and continue going right...you will see some steps going down so take
them. You will be in an open area with benches and a chest...open the
chest for another 15 bullet clip. Now go southeast to end up in
another place with nothing of interest so just follow the path right
and then go up to reach the next area. In this area there are two
chests...the one in the lower left contains a 90HP+ vial and the one in
the lower right contains a 15 bullet clip. Once you have raided the
chest go up over the bridge and into the area where you would've ended
up had you taken the entrance earlier. You are in the upper right hand
corner of this V shaped path so get yourself over to the upper left
side where there is a gate that leads to the next area. Here just go
straight up, ignoring the left path, and at the next area go straight
up again and into the doorway. Inside you will see EVE on the stage so
run to the left for a nice, disgusting FMV sequence to begin. Once it
is over have Aya exit the area to the left. You will be back outside
so run to the right and you will see the little girl that has been
haunting your visions...follow her backstage. Run up to EVE when you
see her and she will float off...pursue her and end up back outside.
Now go back the way you came and take the left path that you ignored
earlier. You will be in an area where you can go up or left...if you
go up through the pavilion you can save your game at a phone booth
there AND pick up a chest in the corner that holds a 15 bullet clip,
otherwise go left. Before you go though AT LEAST search the pavilion,
you can get two hidden chests within it. The one on the left has a 15
bullet clip, the one on the right has an Instant Revive potion (revives
you in battle when you die)...these chests are hard to find at first
(because you simply CAN'T see them), but keep trying THEY ARE THERE.
Once you have gone left you will see the little girl running downward
and you should run after her. When I say SHOULD I mean that this area
is pretty much a maze and you can reach the same point a variety of
different ways, but I'm going to guide you through the route that gets
you ALL of the chests and items. To do this you must follow the girl
DOWNWARD, pass up the left path, and take the first right that you come
to. You will see the girl running left this time so follow her that
direction and follow the path around taking a right at the bottom and
then go south on the next path to get to a chest with a 15 bullet clip.
After getting the chest go back down the path and just go left until
the next area where there is a chest next to a bench that holds some
body armor. Continue left across the bridge into the next area where
there is another bridge going down...go down this bridge to get a chest
containing a body armor power-up. Now go back up the bridge and follow
the path straight left into the next area where you will see the girl
again...running left. Instead of following her take the first path up,
take the left at the top, and then go down the first time you can to
get a chest containing an Upgrade Tool. Now just go up, left, and
follow the path to the left and into the next area. In this area just
follow the path down-left until you reach the next section, where you
do the same thing...follow the bridge down-left into a new area. Now
you are in an area with staircases and a path in between them...take
the path (the stairways lead to the same place with NO treasures) and
get the two treasure chests on the way that both contain a body armor
power-up. In the next area area just go up-right to exit the screen
and then on the next screen there is a phone booth where you can
save...and you DO want to save here. Then go right and you will meet a
boss.
SNAKE BOSS - 200 HP EACH - TOTAL 800 HP: This boss is really not too
difficult...just make sure you have your best weapon equipped before
you take it on. The snakes pop out of the ground then shoot little
spiked balls at you that explode and send needles in all directions.
What can I say you know? Just dodge quickly THEN shoot...that's the
best way. You may be a bit overwhelmed at first, but once you kill one
snake there is less pressure on you...then you kill another and
another. The only problem is...the snakes that remain get much bigger
as you kill off one of their own. Once there is only one snake left he
is HUGE and he always pops up in the same place and has two
attacks...the spiked ball (only MUCH bigger and with more range) and a
sweep where he lies down and swings his body across the screen. You
can just beat this form by just standing at the snakes base and firing
away with your gun...sure you'll take some hits but when wounded just
heal with your 60HP+ PARASITE ENERGY spell or a 90HP+ vial. He goes
down in no time.
Once you beat the snake exit to the right of the screen, and in
the next area run up to EVE who is floating on the carriage. After
talking to her, board the carriage and enjoy the "flaming horse" FMV.
Once it's over...it's time to take on EVE yet again.
EVE THIRD BATTLE - 300 HP: Of course she is also, yet again, EASY! You
have a VERY small space to move around in, but that actually makes this
particular battle easier. EVE has two lousy attacks...one is her slash
were she swings at you with her long arms, the other is her power beam
where she flies into the air and fires a huge beam at you. Just shoot
her and then run away from her to avoid her slash attack, and when she
flies into the air stand in the MIDDLE of the carriage and wait. As
soon as you see her beam forming in the carriage notice what corner it
is forming in and run to the opposite corner quickly and you will
escape undamaged. Then continue this pattern...she's simple.
After the battle watch the next cool FMV and then there are a
bunch of automatic scenes so pop open a cold one and relax. There is
ANOTHER FMV, then MORE automatic scenes...and finally DAY TWO comes to
an end.
