F A Q S ========================================================================== -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Frequently Asked Questions Q: When was this game released? A: North America: 08/07/03, Japan: 07/03/03, Europe: 05/23/03. Q: Why did Europe get it before everyone else and almost two months earlier than North America? A: Well, Europe got a lot of games a lot later than North America and Japan; they got SH1 and SH2 last. Some people think it's because SH2 sold better in Europe but that is not true. I think it was foolish to have North America wait so long. Q: In Europe, do you get the Making of SH3 DVD with the game like SH2? A: No. Q: I heard that you get the Official Soundtrack with SH3 in North America, is this true? A: Yes, something exclusively for North America. Q: I bought this game and played it and I was too scared to continue after a while. Do you think I should continue or just give up? A: If you start it, you have to finish it. If you don't plan on finishing it, don't start it. You should definitely continue. Get over yourself. FAQ/Walkthrough Frequently Asked Questions Q: What do you mean by "examine"? A: Go up to whatever is mentioned and press X. Q: I can't find a certain item, where can I find it? A: Check the Item List, although every item location and where you use the item are described in the walkthrough section Q: I can't solve a certain puzzle, can you help me? A: Every puzzle is described in detail in the walkthrough but if you are really having trouble, just e-mail me. Q: I need to find a place to save but I can't find one. Where is one? A: Check the Save Point Locations section. Q: I'm running a lot slower than I was before. Why is this? A: You've got the Bulletproof Vest equipped. It's heavy so unequip it and you'll be able to run faster and the control won't be as sluggish. Also, heavy weapons make you run a bit slower. Q: What is this "Silent Hill 2 Reference" thing in the walkthrough? A: If you have a save file with the game beaten at least once for SH2 on the same memory card as SH3, you can experience four extra things. Q: How do you unlock the Unlimited Submachine Gun? A: Beat the final boss with a melee weapon. You can use guns but the last hit has to be with a melee weapon. I recommend the Katana. Q: Where is the tips section like in your SH2 FAQ? A: It's called "Playing the Game". It's above the Difficulty Settings section which is above the Walkthrough. Q: I haven't played any other SH game. Will I understand what's going on? A: You won't really understand the story, especially background information and stuff from the past. I recommend you at least play Silent Hill 1 so you aren't confused. It wouldn't hurt to play SH2 before either. Q: I've played SH2 but not SH1. Is this okay? A: You won't understand the story if you haven't played SH1. Silent Hill 3 is the sequel to the first Silent Hill and the storyline has nothing to do with Silent Hill 2. Play SH1 if you want to understand things and play SH2 before SH3 also. You'll understand later. Q: How many endings are in this game? A: 3. Q: How do you unlock the Heather Beam? A: Kill a total of 333 or more enemies in your save file. It doesn't matter how many times through the game it takes you. Q: How come there are bugs blocking the hallway of the mall? There weren't last time. A: When you play on Easy Riddle Level, nothing is there. But on higher Riddle Levels, they will be. Q: There are some bugs blocking a hallway in the mall and I can't get by. What do I do? A: Get the Bleach and Detergent (use the Item List in this FAQ for their locations), go to the empty bucket by the door and combine the two items. Before you do this, you'll have to turn off the fan in the previous corridor, and turn it back on after. Q: There's a big monster blocking the 1F hallway to exit the Nightmare Hilltop Center. How do I kill it? A: You can't. You must find the end of the fairy tale to find out what to do, and then it will be gone. Q: I was in the storeroom of the Nightmare Hospital and the room got all screwy and the door was locked so I died. What's going on? A: The door is locked for a certain amount of time and when the room is done getting all messed up, it will be open, but it may be hard to find. Q: I don't have any ammo left and I think I'm close to the last boss. Am I screwed or what? A: You're okay. You can beat the last boss with a melee weapon pretty easily. It may take a while on Normal Action Level and a long time on Hard, but it will end eventually; just be careful. You'll unlock a secret weapon if you do this, too. Q: I still have Shakespeare books from a while ago in the game. Can I get rid of the or do they have any use? A: You can't get rid of them now, but they have no use. You should put them on the shelf when doing the Shakespeare puzzle, but I didn't the first time and had them for the whole game too. Don't worry about it, nothing bad will happen or anything. Q: Do you have lyrics for the songs in SH3? A: Yes, check the Song Lyrics section. All the lyrics for every song are in there. Q: Even though it's not a song, do you have the lyrics for "Sun?" A: Yes, it's in there too. In the future there may be more FAQs. If you have a question, just e-mail me and I will gladly answer it. I might put it up here as well. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ========================================================================== 4. P R O L O G U E ========================================================================== -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Heather is at the mall on a normal Sunday and she falls asleep in a restaurant called "Happy Burger". She wakes up from a horrible nightmare to find herself sleeping at a table. She gets up and leaves the restaurant and finds a phone to call her father. While she's on the phone, a man wearing a brown overcoat in his 50s seems to be waiting near her, possibly for the phone. After she's done on the phone, she gives the man a weird look to tell him he can use the phone now. He shakes his head. Heather starts to walk away and the man approaches her and tells her he'd like to speak with her. He says his name is Douglas Cartland and he's a detective. He claims someone wants to meet her and wants a half-hour of her time. Heather declines and walks away. Douglas doesn't give up and mentions it being very important and about her birth. Heather is annoyed and heads into the nearby Women's washroom. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ========================================================================== 5. C H A R A C T E R S ========================================================================== -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Heather Morris -------------- Age: 17 Heather is a normal teenage girl who goes shopping one day and becomes trapped in a different world. She seems to know how to survive but isn't a professional because this has never happened to her before. She has greasy blonde hair that's not too long and has a short temper -- she gets mad pretty easily. She seems to be on the funny side of a person and loves her dad, and doesn't like to talk to strangers. Heather has no job but does chores at home and makes no money for it. She sometimes is a babysitter as well. Douglas Cartland ---------------- Age: Late 50s Douglas is an older man whom Heather meets in the mall. She doesn't really seem to like him. He has gray hair and a beard. He is a detective and wants to know about Heather's birth for some reason, and asks for a half- hour of her time. Douglas was hired by Claudia to track down Heather, but proves himself to be a nice person. He just happens to be at the wrong place at the wrong time in many cases and takes the blame from Heather. Claudia Wolf ------------ Age: 30 Claudia seems to be a strange middle-aged woman. Heather first meets her in the mall and Heather wonders if she is the reason of this different world, but she claims it was the Hand of God. Claudia has a pale face with long blonde hair and doesn't seem like a normal person, so she might be the reason for the monsters. Claudia is a Priestess of a Cult Teachings Group and tells Heather she is the one who will lead "us" to paradise. Vincent ------- Age: 24-26 Vincent seems very strange and claims he can be trusted, but Heather doesn't want to trust him. He also claims he's on your side and doesn't want to be mentioned with Claudia; he says he hates her. Heather meets Vincent in the Hilltop Center, specifically in the Mental Health Clinic area for some reason. He has brown hair and glasses and usually has a smirk on his face. Vincent is a Priest of a Cult Teachings Group and is known as "Father Vincent." -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ========================================================================== 6. E N E M I E S ========================================================================== -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Closer ------ Location(s): Lakeside Amusement Park, Central Square Shopping Center, Nightmare Mall, Lakeside Amusement Park Revisited, Church. Appearance: A very tall creature with two large padded arms that widen as they go down. Has normal-sized legs and doesn't really have a face but you can see its mouth. The Closer likes to twitch its head a lot. People used to call it "Weezer Arms" because of its appearance. Strategy: The Closer isn't a good fighter at all, really. It has slow reactions and moves fairly slowly. However, its attacks are rather powerful. You don't really need to kill Closers because they're not much of a threat, but if you find one really annoying you, try to use the Handgun. Move backwards while you're shooting them if they're close. It is always easy to just run past them, however. Suggested Weapon(s): The Handgun is probably the best weapon to use on Closers; keep your distance though. The Submachine Gun is also good on Closers but you usually don't have much ammo for it. Melee weapons don't work too well because it's not that good to be close to Closers. The Shotgun is great on them because of its widespread range, but try not to use too much ammo. Numb Body --------- Location(s): Central Square Shopping Center, Nightmare Mall, Underpass, Hilltop Center. Appearance: A numb body that's purple in colour and has a head that looks like an eyeball. Veins appear on the body. Come in sizes small, medium and large. No fries with that. Strategy: Numb Bodies aren't hard to kill and don't take more than a good melee weapon. They walk slowly so you can give them a whack with a melee weapon and step back. You can kill them with the Knife, but it takes a while. When you get the Steel Pipe, it gets a lot easier. Numb Bodies are usually in groups but it's not hard to kill them all. Just let them come to you separately, and if one's already in the way, another one behind it probably won't be able to get to you. Try to back up or sidestep when fighting them so they don't get a chance to attack you. Suggested Weapon(s): The Steel Pipe is always great, specifically the overhead swing. The Handgun is good because of its range, however, you don't always need it because the Steel Pipe is good enough. Let Numb Bodies in groups come to you one by one and it's pretty easy. Try to attack from behind when they're alone. Double Head ----------- Location(s): Lakeside Amusement Park, Central Square Shopping Center, Nightmare Mall, Hazel Street Subway Station, Hilltop Center, Nightmare Hilltop Center, Silent Hill, Nightmare Hospital, Lakeside Amusement Park Revisited. Appearance: A dog covered in bandages and a head split in half. Like a roasted dead dog come to life. Somewhat like the Demon Dog in the first Silent Hill but is a lot bigger and not as skinny. Strategy: Double Heads move pretty fast but you can outrun them. They are usually in groups but their attacks aren't that powerful, so you can take them on. They usually run and jump up at you. It's good to use the Steel Pipe or Katana, if you have them, to kill them. Try to get behind them and attack from there. Use the strafing buttons so they can't get you. Double Heads like to eat meat on the ground and usually are doing so. Try to just run past them when they're doing this. Double Heads are also attracted to Beef Jerky, so try putting some on the ground for distractions. In open areas, Double Heads howl (for reinforcements), so you can tell where they are. Suggested Weapon(s): The Katana and Steel Pipe are great for killing Double Heads. But if you don't have them, the Handgun can easily do the job. You'll start off with just the Knife, but it isn't too good on Double Heads. It will take a while to kill them, meaning they will try several attack attempts; use the strafing buttons so they can't bite you. Pendulum -------- Location(s): Lakeside Amusement Park, Nightmare Mall, Underpass, Construction Site, Silent Hill, Lakeside Amusement Park Revisited, Church. Appearance: Looks somewhat like a spider. Has needles for legs and is wrapped in a cocoon. Has two heads with blades on each of them. Strategy: Usually the best thing to do with Pendulums is to simply run away. When you shoot them, it will just make them come faster towards you. Sometimes you encounter Pendulums on the ground, but they're usually flying. Try to knock them down from the air with the Shotgun and then shoot them again to get the job done. The Handgun doesn't seem to work well at all -- bullets are deflected. If you have the ammo, the Submachine Gun is great. Aim up and shoot the Pendulum -- this will trigger it to lunge towards you -- and keep shooting up. It will knock the Pendulum to the ground and will usually be dead. Suggested Weapon(s): The Shotgun works fine. One shot should knock it down and another should kill it. The Submachine Gun is great but you usually don't have much ammo for it. Insane Cancer ------------- Location(s): Hazel Street Subway Station, Construction Site (depends), Hilltop Center, Nightmare Hilltop Center, Church. Appearance: A very large and fat monster. Its face appears to be crushed inward like it got its face punched in. Strategy: You only encounter Insane Cancers while they're lying on the ground, and they have to get up. But you'll be surprised at how fast they can move. Once one starts running, it will scare you. When you encounter an Insane Cancer (lying down), take advantage of it and run past it. Even in narrow areas you can run past them by pushing them a little. Insane Cancers have a lot of health, but if you really want to kill them, use the Shotgun. The Handgun isn't really powerful so it won't do much. When you knock an Insane Cancer down, it doesn't mean it's dead. It's dead when it deflates. Suggested Weapon(s): The Shotgun is great on Insane Cancers. Use the Shotgun to blast them and it won't take too long to kill them. Still shoot at them while they're on the ground -- if they don't move they will soon deflate because they're dead. If you have the ammo, the Submachine Gun is amazing for killing these massive monsters. Slurper ------- Location(s): Nightmare Hilltop Center, Nightmare Hospital, Church. Appearance: Looks somewhat like a human body and has a beak on its face so it can suck things. Its arms, hands and legs have leather-type coverings over them. Strategy: Slurpers are the most annoying enemies in Silent Hill 3. They will come up to you and knock you to the ground if they get the chance. You usually won't be able to get past them without being knocked down first, so it's good to blast them with the Shotgun before they reach you. You don't get many Shotgun Shells so only kill them when you have to. The Handgun isn't too good because it lacks power, but it can get the job done. After you shoot a Slurper, it will just lay there and fake its death. Don't be fooled by this -- it's dead when you see blood pour out its corpse. Suggested Weapon(s): The Shotgun is your best bet. Because of its power it won't take much to kill Slurpers. But try not to use too much ammo and make sure the majority of the Shotgun shrapnel hit the Slurper -- letting them get close to you will give better results, however, if you miss, they can knock you down. The Handgun is weak and won't work too well, especially due to the fact that Slurpers move quickly towards you. Melee weapons don't work well because Slurpers are on the ground and you'll have to press X hard every time you want to hit them, and they'll be able to easily knock you down. Nurse Demon ----------- Location(s): Brookhaven Hospital, Nightmare Hospital. Appearance: Just like the Nurse Demons from Silent Hill 2 except they have hair and faces this time, as well as longer skirts. Nurses wear hospital uniforms and high heel shoes. Strategy: Nurses are rather strong and require a lot of hits. They carry Steel Pipes or Revolvers, so melee weapons won't work too well. The Handgun is pretty good, but try to stay far away from Nurses while you shoot them or else you may receive a beating -- be sure to back up as they come towards you. Nurse Demons tend to whack even if you're not in their range, but they can hit you if you're close enough, and actually shoot you if you're in range. Go for Nurses with Revolvers first because if you get hit with one it will inflict a lot of damage. The Shotgun is perfect for fighting Nurses in groups, so when you're surrounded, you'll know what to do. Suggested Weapon(s): The Handgun works fine, just stay away from the Nurse Demons while you shoot them. When fighting multiple Nurses, use the Shotgun. The Shotgun also works well if they get too close. The Submachine Gun can work pretty nicely if you have the ammo. Scraper ------- Location(s): Church. Appearance: Looks similar to Pyramid Head from Silent Hill 2 but different in some ways. Very closely resembles the Missionary boss but not nearly as strong. Has a pyramid-type head but altered a little. Has rubber gloves over its hands and has a skirt-type costume and shoes. Strategy: Scrapers aren't very strong -- it only takes 1 or 2 shots from the Shotgun to kill them. There are few Scrapers in the game and they're only in the Church, but they can sometimes deflect attacks from the front. If you can, attack from the back. The Handgun does work but it's not that good. The Submachine Gun does the job pretty quick so it's substitute of the Shotgun. Try not to let Scrapers get close enough that they can attack. But you can let them come close and blast them with the Shotgun. Suggested Weapon(s): The Shotgun works great and takes care of Scrapers with no problem. The Submachine Gun is also great but it doesn't have much ammo. The Handgun is usually deflected -- the Shotgun is your best bet. Valtiel ------- Location(s): Nightmare Mall, Nightmare Hilltop Center, Nightmare Hospital, Church. Appearance: A rather strange looking monster just like some others in this game. Valtiel's costume is very similar to Pyramid Head's from Silent Hill 2. The head of Valtiel twitches a lot like that of the Closer. Has a slight tone of yellow. You'll find Valtiel in 5-15 places in the game and he's almost always turning a valve for some reason. He could be helping you and he never tries to hurt you. Strategy: No strategy since Valtiel never really encounters you. You always just pass by each other or one of you passes by the other. Valtiel may scare you but there's nothing to worry about. After you die in certain areas (usually Nightmare areas), Valtiel will come to collect you and drag you away. Suggested Weapon(s): None. Valtiel can't be hit and there's no reason for you to shoot him. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ========================================================================== 7.

So you'll have to strike the enemy with a melee weapon. If you ever run out of ammunition or if it is scarce, equip and use a melee weapon. Melee weapons consist of either two or three attacks (with the exception of the Stun Gun): An over shoulder swing, an overhead swing and a thrust attack. The over shoulder swing should be used most of the time and mainly for whacking enemies that are upright. When enemies are on the ground, use the overhead swing so it actually hits the enemy. The overhead swing is more powerful than the over shoulder swing but is slower. Both swings can be used at any time and it's good to vary between them, depending on the situation. The other attack, the thrust, is more powerful than the over shoulder swing, and can be more powerful than the overhead swing for certain weapons. Try all the attacks out and see which one you like the best. Knife ----- "It's a switchblade for self-defense. I've never used it, but just incase." The Knife easily earns the worst weapon of the game award, but if you know how to use it, it can be a pretty good weapon. However, it can only be used at extremely close range, and you're risking being attacked by enemies when you try to use it on them. Use the strafing buttons to move out of the way when you think the enemy might attack. The Knife is only pretty good on Numb Bodies. Basically for any other enemy, it's not good at all. The good thing about the Knife is that you'll never have to fight you when only have it -- you shortly get the Handgun, and then the Steel Pipe later. To use the Knife, hold R2 and press X to deliver a swing. To perform a thrust attack, hold X instead of pressing it. You can also do this attack while moving forward, and it might come in handy. Don't expect to kill many enemies with this pathetic weapon; you should be happy if you kill one with it. This weapon is owned from the start of the game, so the only place where you can find it is in your inventory. Steel Pipe ---------- "A steel pipe, about 3 feet long. Not very powerful, but not hard to use." If you have played any of the other Silent Hill games, you should be familiar with this weapon. It can be swiped downward and across. It's not an amazing weapon, but can work very well. The range is a lot better than the Knife, so it comes in handy when you're conserving ammo and don't want to die. The Steel Pipe works great with small enemies like Numb Bodies and Double Heads. When fighting in groups, let the enemies come to you one by one. To use the Steel Pipe, hold R2 and press X to perform an over shoulder swing, and hold X to deliver an overhead attack. Another attack is a thrust -- hold both R2 and X while moving forward to perform this. You can find the Steel Pipe in the Café Turn Mill Restaurant on 2F of the Nightmare Mall, by the steam pipes. Maul ---- "Like a big round pointy hammer. It's super heavy, but at least it's got some oomph." A very powerful weapon but awkward to use. The Maul can be great on Closers if you use it right. For smaller enemies, don't even bother with this -- this is for the big guys. Hold R2 and press X to swing it across. Press X and hold it and Heather will perform a downward swing, which is very powerful. The Maul is on the locker on the ground in the first actual room in the Underpass, on the upper level. Katana ------ "This is a short katana, about 2 ft. long. Pretty powerful and easy to handle." Now this is a great melee weapon. These Japanese swords usually come in pairs but Heather will only take one because of weight consumption. This is the best average melee weapon in Silent Hill 3 and you should use it on the last two bosses in the game. It works pretty well on normal enemies and has a fine range. This weapon is not a secret like in the first Silent Hill but you get around halfway through the game. Hold R2 and press X to do an over shoulder swing -- hold X after pressing it (press it, let go, hold) and Heather should do three swings. Hold R2 and hold X for Heather to do an overhead swing attack. To perform a thrust attack, hold both R2 and X while moving forward. You can get the Katana on the shelf in the art storage room in the northeast corridor on 5F, Hilltop Center. Stun Gun -------- "High voltage to zap the bad guys. It has to touch 'em, though, so it's very short range." This weapon was given to Heather from her father for self defense. It's a powerful weapon that can only be used at extremely short range. Stun Gun Batteries are required to use the Stun Gun. A battery produces only 4 shocks, but they are fairly powerful. Stand on the spot and let the enemy approach you. When it gets close, shock the sucker. To use the Stun Gun, hold R2 and press X to shoot the high-voltage electric current (it won't fly anywhere, it has to make contact with the enemy). Since the Stun Gun requires batteries, you must reload when it runs out to continue using it. This is considered a melee weapon because of its short range and it's not really a firearm. You can find the Stun Gun on Heather's dresser in her room in Daisy Villa Apartments. Firearms ======== Unlike in earlier Silent Hill games, each gun will not come loaded with a clip. You will have to collect ammunition that is lying around to use guns. Each gun is different in speed and power and amazing in its own way. Firearms can shoot a singe shot or several shots. While holding R2, press X to shoot once, and hold it to shoot several times (certain guns will take longer than others to shoot more than once). You will need to reload your gun after the magazine is finished or the gun is empty of ammo. Conserve your ammo and use melee weapons whenever necessary. Handgun ------- "Holds 10 rounds of ammunition. Small and not powerful, but easy to use." The Handgun is the gun you should use for the most part of the game. It was also in the other Silent Hill games so you should be familiar with it. It holds 10 bullets in each clip and has moderate stopping power. It has good range and can kill enemies usually with around 5-10 bullets. Plenty of ammo is lying around in the game so it shouldn't be too hard to find some. Don't waste it though, only use it when you feel you have to or when you want to kill an enemy with it. The Handgun is found in the women's clothing store in Central Square on 1F. Shotgun ------- "Holds 6 rounds of ammunition. It's hard to handle, but has great range." Also in the past Silent Hill games, this Shotgun is great to be in the series. Without it, you'd have a much more difficult time in all the Silent Hill games. It holds 6 shells and is very effective. Because of its widespread range, it's great for multiple enemies. The Shotgun is very powerful and can kill many enemies fairly easily. Try to let the enemy come close to you, and then blast it. Usually the enemy will fall to the floor after the very first shot. To use the Shotgun, hold R2 and press X. Because of its massive recoil, the Shotgun can't shoot fast, however, its power makes up for that. The Shotgun is found in the abandoned subway car on a seat of Hazel Street Subway Station on floor B3. Submachine Gun -------------- "Holds 32 rounds of ammunition. Great for its continuous firing." The first fully automatic gun ever to appear in the Silent Hill series. One bullet from the Submachine Gun isn't too powerful and only has half the power of one Handgun bullet. However, its continuous fire makes it deadly. Each clip holds 32 bullets. You won't get too much ammo for this weapon, and when you do use it, it runs out really fast. I would recommend the Submachine Gun only for bosses, although it probably won't do much. The Submachine Gun isn't an important weapon, so you can go ahead and use it on any enemy you wish. To use this fully automatic firearm, hold R2 and hold X to continuously fire. Use the left analog stick to aim up, down, left or right while shooting. It's pretty cool how you can free aim while shooting, but you can't move while the Submachine Gun is ready to fire. The Submachine Gun is located on the floor by the BF elevator in Brookhaven Hospital. =--==--= SUPPLIES =--==--= Below are all the supplies in Silent Hill 3. Legend ---------------- |Availability | |1 - Scarce | |2 - Rare | |3 - Usual | |4 - Often | |5 - Very Common | | | |Health Restored | |25%-100% | | | |Power | |1 - Terrible | |2 - Bad | |3 - Okay | |4 - Good | |5 - Great | | | |Usage: | |1 - Rare | |2 - Unoften | |3 - Usual | |4 - Often | |5 - A lot | ---------------- Health Drink ------------ Availability: 5 Health Restored: 25% "It's full of nutrition and should help me recover at least a little of my strength." Health Drinks are very common and they can actually increase your health by a pretty good amount. Don't go wasting them though, because you might really need them at certain areas. If you get hit once or twice by an enemy, don't use a Health Drink (unless your health is bad). However, if your status screen in the in-game menu is yellow, it's a good time to use a Health Drink. If any worse, use two or more, or another health item. First Aid Kit ------------- Availability: 3 Health Restored: 50% "This will help me patch up my wounds fairly well, I think." First-Aid Kits are excellent for greater wounds than that of the Health Drink's ability, but you might not have too many. Never waste First-Aid Kits because you'll probably need a lot of them. When your health is at its worst, it will only take two First-Aid Kits to fully restore your health. However, if you have many Ampoules (two is many), use one at your worst health and it will be fully restored. Ampoule ------- Availability: 1 Health Restored: 100% "This is the stuff! It'll wipe out all the pain and help recover my strength." These are very rare and powerful. Ampoules will bring your health back up to its best and will keep your stamina at the maximum for a few minutes. You might not know when you need them -- be sure you do. Don't go wasting them with yellow health or better. You should ONLY use Ampoules when your health is red or if it's bad and you need good stamina. Anything better, use a First-Aid Kit and/or Health Drinks. Use one of these babies and your health will be at its best, no matter how bad your health is. Handgun Bullets --------------- Availability: 4 Power: 3 "Bullets for a handgun." Handgun Bullets are found in many places in Silent Hill 3. In fact, when you're low on ammo, there will be extra ammo for you in certain places. But that doesn't mean go and waste all your ammo. Conserve your ammo and use it wisely. You'll probably use the Handgun the most out of all your weapons, and you should find many Handgun Bullets so you can keep using the gun. They are strong enough for the speed you're able to shoot them at, so you should be happy about that. To reload, either go on the Handgun or Handgun Bullets in the menu, or equip the Handgun and Handgun Bullets and press R3 in the game. Shotgun Shells -------------- Availability: 3 Power: 5 "Ammunition for a shotgun." Not too easy to find but very useful when you do. Use wisely and save for bosses. The Shotgun has very wide range, so it's great on multiple enemies. For normal-sized enemies, use the Handgun, but for large enemies, use the Shotgun. To reload, either go on the Shotgun or the Shotgun Shells in the menu, or equip the Shotgun and Shotgun Shells and press R3 in the game. Sub Machine Gun Bullets ----------------------- Availability: 1 Power: 3 "Ammunition for a submachine gun." Very rare but not needed. The power of one bullet isn't powerful but the continuous firing is great. You collect Submachine Gun Bullets in magazines (a clip for bullets, not reading material). When using the gun, you'll have to reload pretty fast because of how fast the ammo goes by. To reload, either go on the Submachine Gun or the Submachine Gun Bullets in the menu, or equip the Submachine Gun and Submachine Gun Bullets and press R3 in the game. Stun Gun Battery --------------- Availability: 2 Power: 4 "A battery for a stun gun." Not many in the game but they can be useful, especially when you've run out of ammo for your firearms. You have to use the Stun Gun at close range though, so it may be tough to use on certain enemies. Each battery comes with 4 charges. Just like firearms, you will have to reload the Stun Gun. Either go on the Stun Gun or the Stun Gun Batteries in the menu, or equip the Stun Gun and Stun Gun Batteries and press R3 in the game. Beef Jerky ---------- Availability: 2 Usage: 2 "Processed, dried meat. Sometimes it's just enough to distract monsters. Beef Jerky is really useful -- you can use it to help you get passed certain enemies or just to have fun. If you place a strip on the floor, certain enemies may come up to it and start chomping on it, just like they do with the meat bags. It doesn't always work though, so don't always count on it all the time. It's pretty good to place some Beef Jerky on the ground when there are 2-4 enemies that are attracted to meat in the area. Beef Jerky comes in packs of four and you should find a pack every once in a while. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ========================================================================== 8.

It is normally on 3D control. These types of control are very different. In 3D control, whichever direction you are facing is the way you will move if you hold forward. You can also step backwards and strafe to the left and right. 3D control is easier to use than in Silent Hill 2 but it is still quite the same. With 2D control, you just hold whichever direction you want to go, depending on the camera angle, and you will go there. It is much easier to move around with 2D control but you cannot strafe or step backwards because it is easy enough to control. You should try both control types at least once and then stick with one. I prefer 3D but it's your choice. Extra Options ------------- Just like previous Silent Hill games, there is an Extra Options menu. Press either L1 or R1 to access this extra menu. There are a few things in the menu that you can change right away, and you need to beat the game to get more, like Bullet Adjust, which you can multiply each ammo pick-up by 2 up to 5. The options you can change right away are: Blood Color, Blood Volume, Walk/Run Control, Map, Noise Effect and Display Mode. If you want to experience the best of Silent Hill 3, change the Blood Volume to Much, |
