Head Into Exam Room 3 example essay topic

7,611 words
After the scenes, head west from the bathroom. In the car, grab the Silent Hill Map. [NOTE: For the course of the game, maps will be VERY important. Use it when navigating. When I say 'head into Sanders Street', use the map to get to it.] Head down a flight of stairs and head across a path.

You should see a gate nearby. Head through. Inside the graveyard, you " ll see Angela. Talk to her and exit through the gate to the west. Follow the path and you " ll be on a road.

That road is Sanders Street. Head to Lindsay Street to find blood. Head north on Vachss. There are some Health Drinks on the right side of the street.

Grab them... you " ll need them, especially on hard mode! Follow Vachss Road. There's a lawn nearby with the first save point of the game. Instead of the notepad from SH 1, you get some red slab. There are 2 health drinks nearby... you " ll need them. Continue on Vachss Street.

At the end is a wooden block in. Climb through and you " ll encounter your first monster. Inside, a scene happens. James gets his first weapon... a Wooden Plank! It is effective close-up.

Strike the monster and finish it off. The Plank is effective, since the Handgun isn't coming your way for a while. You also get the Radio, which sounds when monsters are nearby. Head back to Lindsay Street. From there, find your way to Saul Street and then to the very top of Martin Street. [NOTE: You can find a trailer at the west end of Saul Street, pointing to the top of Martin Street... it's probably useless, but it has a save point.] Monsters now roam the streets... dodge them since you have a lot of space.

On the top is a corpse. On it is a key. It is the Apartment Gate Key. Look at the map to find 'WOODSIDE APARTMENTS. ' To get there, head west on Katz. The gate is nearby.

Use the Key you just found to get in. Head to the nearby door. You are in the Woodside Apartment Building. It is MUCH like the Midwich School from the first game. WOODSIDE APARTMENTS Inside the building, grab the Map of Woodside. You " ll need it!

Grab the Health Drink and save. You can't see the map yet because you need a flashlight. Head up the nearby stairs. Enter through the door to the second floor. Turn right and travel down the hall passed 2 doors into room 205. Inside, explore the human decoy.

Grab the Flashlight and a monster attacks. Hurt it with the Plank. Now that you can see the map, we need more weapons, after that weird monster. While the Handgun isn't coming for a while, we stock up on bullets. Run to Room 210, using the map for guidance and killing monsters with the Plank on your way there.

Inside the rooms, grab the Handgun Bullets. Now that we have decent stock, head to 3 F. There, you " ll see a key across a gate. A girl will kick it away. Head to room 301 on 3 F. Inside is the Handgun in a cart. [NOTE: The Handgun runs out fast against all the monsters. You might want to stick to the Plank, since we " ve been doing good with it.

But if you are a beginner and are playing on Hard Mode, stay equipped with the Gun.] Go to Room 208 now. Passed it is a gate with a monster. Beyond that gate is something important- a door! Inside 208, a man lies dead.

On a shelf is Room 202 Key. Take it to Room 202 on 2 F. Inside, head to the kitchen for an important Health Drink. A bedroom with some green stuff and bats has a Clock Key. Take the Clock Key to Room 208 and head into the room near the dead guy. Inside is a clock. Use the Clock Key on the face.

Now use the D PAD to turn the keys of the clock. Keep turning it until you hear a click. When it clicked while I was playing, it was a 9: 10. It may be random, depending on the riddle difficulty you chose at the start of the game.

Now go to the side and try to push the clock. Examine the clock like you would any item and select 'yes' when pushing it. It reveals a hole in the wall leading to another apartment. Head out this apartment and save.

Outside the room, you are on the other side of the gate near the door leading to Room 208. Head through the door to another flight of stairs. Climb it to 3 F. Examine the Map to find out that you can now get to the other side of that gate where that girl kicked the key. Run there.

Grab the Fire Escape Key. Head into Room 307. After a scene, grab the Courtyard Key in the closet and exit. Head to the stairs on the east, noted on the map. Head down to the bottom of the stairs to 1 F. The door nearby leads to Canned Juice.

Grab it. Head back up to 2 F by taking the stairs you just went down on. Head up to 3 F, down the north stairs, through Room 209, through the room with the clock and dead man and to the laundry area by the stairs you first used to get to 2 F. There is a garbage tunnel there. After about 10 minutes of figuring, the realized the heavy thing you needed to drop into there was the Canned Juice you found. Now I ponder... where do we go next?

Outside. This took me an hour to find, but outside, near the gate you first entered from, is a garbage dump. Examine it to get an Old Man Coin. Head inside again and to the locked door at the foot of the stairs. Use the Courtyard Key and head out.

In this pool area, run down into it and shoot the monsters. Head to the cart in the middle and grab the Snake Coin. Now head to the other door in this courtyard. It is near the one you used to get to this building. Head into Room 101. Inside, is Eddie.

After talking to him (It never occurred to me that we had to explore that area, so we couldn't move ahead), leave. Head back through the courtyard and climb to 2 F. Head to the left side of the lobby and use the Fire Escape Key to head through. You arrive at another building... another damn apartment building! BLUE CREEK APARTMENTS We are in another apartment building, but this one is shorter than Woodside. We are in a bedroom.

Run out into the bathroom. Andy Rose 2000 told me to check in the toilet for a combination. Check it and you get a combination. It might be random. Jot it down, along with arrows' direction. Head into the main area o the same room and you will find a safe.

Use the combination from the toilet. When going to a new number, turn the dial in the direction of the arrow after the previous number. Inside are 4 Handgun Bullets. Thanks to Andy Rose 2000 for this extremely helpful tip. Now we need to head out.

Arm the Plank for now. Head out. Outside, find a door under an exit sign. It is a stairway and to James' right is the Blue Creek Map. Use it to follow my next directions. To get back to Woodside Apartments, use Room 203, as hinted in the map.

But we don't need to bother with that place anymore, but if you want to ever get back to the areas at the start, that's the path you use. If you want to save, head to Room 105, on the first floor. For another dose of ammo, head to Room 109. Head through the white door in that room and you " ll see a scene with Angela. You know have her knife. But it isn't a weapon!

I've tried! [NOTE: Rumor has it that examining the Knife may affect the game's ending. I can guess that if you examine the Knife in the item screen, a new ending occurs. I will have to try this out.] Collect the coin nearby. It is the Prisoner Coin.

Like the Snake and Old Man Coins you found at Woodside, we are going to need this for a puzzle coming up. Head to Room 105. Look at the little drawer with the 5 circles. The coins you found are needed for it. Since I'm playing on all 3 Riddle Modes, here are my solutions.

For the HARD Mode, insert the Old Man in the second slot. Put the Snake in the fourth slot and the Prisoner in the last slot. For the NORMAL Mode, insert the Old Man in the second slot. Put the Prisoner in the middle slot and the Snake in the last slot. For the EASY Mode, insert the Old Man in the first slot. Insert the Snake in the middle slot and the Prisoner in the last slot.

The drawer should open, revealing a key called the Lyne House Key. A person named Lyne probably owned this place. The Lyne House Key fits into Room 209, so head there on 2 F. Inside, you " ll hear someone whisper. But I couldn't hear what he said.

If anyone heard, please e-mail me! Anyway, head to Room 208 via the balcony. Inside 208, there is a Save Point. SAVE! Then grab the Apartment Stairway Key and the Bullets- you " ll need the bullets for your first boss fight!

Travel to the north stairs on 2 F. Travel across the balcony again to 209 and turn left to the stairs in the northern area. The Key you got should work there. Remember to SAVE! Head down to a boss fight! This is fairly hard, so arm the Handgun and have at least 45 Handgun Bullets. BOSS # 1: PYRAMID HEAD DIFFICULTY: MEDIUM This is probably the monster President Evil called 'Pyramid Head' in his analysis of SH 2.

Now it's after us! Arm the Handgun and get as far as possible from Pyramid Head. Start shooting it. On Normal and Hard Modes, reload your gun in the menu because James can get hit doing it manually. Believe me, I know!

Keep shooting and running passed it. It hits pretty hard. That Knife is the best weapon James can find later and if it is stronger than even the Handgun, imagine the damage it can inflict on James. Although it seems P. Head isn't getting hurt, it is. Just listen to the clank of the bullets. P. Head will eventually go down the stairs. DON'T FOLLOW!

I followed him and I got killed. The water will drain and you can now exit the damn place. Exit and you are back outside, on the other side of the blocked area near Woodside Apartments. Another away to defeat him, thanks to someone e-mailing me, which I will post his name soon, is to just dodge him until he leaves the room down the stairs. Some people say it is impossible to hurt him, and it is.

BUT the shots make it faster for him to surrender. Which strategy shall YOU use? Experiment and see which one is best for you. I personally would shoot it out! BOSS # 1: PYRAMID HEAD ROSEWATER PARK AND PATH TO THE HOSPITAL We need to get to the park James wanted to go to at the start of the game. Run to Rosewater Park.

Use the Map to get there. That bratty little girl who kicked the Fire Escape Key at Woodside Apartments is in a scene. After she leaves, proceed to Rosewater. Run through the park until you see Maria. She will accompany you for now on.

According a few people, what you do with her affects the game. Now look for 'Pete's Bowl-A-Rama. ' Head inside. Turn to the door to the left and you " ll see Eddie and the girl, named Laura. [Note: if you continue toward the north part of the lake, where SH 1 took place, the place will be blocked and a corpse will be there to tell you to go to Pete's Bowling Alley. I directed you to go there directly to avoid a long walk.] Leave the place for now.

Talk to Maria and head down the side of Pete's. Turn right and you " ll see a gate. Head through and turn left. After a scene with Laura, try opening the nearby door. After another scene, head through the door and up the stairs to the right. Look for the tiled door and head through to a night club room.

Head out and turn right. Follow Laura to the hospital. Head inside. BROOKHAVEN HOSPITAL Hospitals... brings back [UN] lovely memories, especially in SH 1 and RE 3. To the left is a Hospital Map- you " ll need it like all the maps thus far. If you want to save, there's a red slab in the Reception Office.

Head to the Document Room, via the Reception Room. There's a Purple Bull Key by the typewriter. Read the journal nearby, too. Using the map, find the staircase so we can go to Floor 2. Head inside the Women's Locker Room. Examine the bear for a Bent Needle.

The Shotgun is in the nearby locker. Head inside the Men's Locker Room. Inside the Exam Room Key. Go back downstairs and unlock the Examination Room. Head to the Doctor's Lounge for very important Shotgun Shells. Travel to 2 F again.

Head into Exam Room 3. Grab the First Aid Kit. Check the typewriter for a VERY, VERY important code. JOT IT DOWN ON PAPER, because it is random! Head into the room called M 2 and grab the Lapis Eye Key. The Shotgun Shells nearby are a needed item for the boss at the end of this section.

Head into M 3 for Handgun Bullets and a Health Drink. M 6 has Shotgun Shells and a Health Drink. Head to Floor 3. Go to the door leading to the hallway with the 'S' Rooms.

You need a code. That code is 7335 on Easy and Normal Riddle Modes and 1328 on Hard. To find this out, read a memo in the First Floor Exam Room. Head to Room S 3.

Maria will leave James's ide. There's a key nearby. Grab the Roof Key. Head over to the roof, via the staircase. Use the Roof Key to unlock it. On top is a diary.

Read it if you want. [NOTE: I hear the if you read the diary, you get a certain ending. I have not confirmed this, but it seems very likely. Stand around it if you don't want to hear it. Stand for a few moments and then try heading out.] As you head back in, something will be blocking the door. Pyramid Head, from the Blue Creek Apartments, has returned.

After a scene, you " ll be back on the third floor, in the Special Treatment Room. Down there, head through the door left of the sign. Inside, read the blood-spattered wall. Try to figure out the code.

JOT IT DOWN ON THE SAME PAPER AS THE CODE FROM EARLIER! Head to Floor 2 and check on Maria. Then head to the last door in that hall- S 14. Inside, is a box that needs 2 codes and 2 keys to open.

Use the Lapis Eye Key and Purple Bull Keys to remove the chains. Now enter the code you got from the typewriter on the right padlock. Enter the code you got from the bloody wall on the left and open the case for... HAIR! Ew... Anyway, this took me a damn half-hour to figure out, so I had to refer to my Brady Games Guide for this one!

Thanks to Brady Games for the tip! Go to the Shower Room and look at the green's limed faucet. Go to the item screen and combine the hair from the bear with the bent needle. To combine, select the hair and then use the 'combine. ' Now select the bent needle and select 'use.

' You should get an elevator key. Use it on the elevator on Floor 3 F. Ride it to Floor 1. Head into Room C 3 and talk to Laura. After a few scenes, you are in your second boss battle. Arm the Shotgun! BOSS # 2: MONKEY MEN DIFFICULTY: Easy call them monkey men because they hang on ceilings.

Aim your Shotgun up and fire a shot from the Shotgun. There are 2 of them, so keep moving and strafing. They can damage, but not VERY much. They " ll give you the occasional hit, but it won't be anything a Health Drink can't heal.

But be careful... as in all survival horror games, damage adds up (I've died countless times against crows in Bio Hazard 2! ). Keep firing that Shotgun and it " ll be your best friend. The Handgun is also effective if you run out of Shotgun Bullets. Compared to Pyramid Head, this guy is a wimp! After the scenes, we arrive in the Evil Brookhaven Hospital!

BOSS # 2: MONKEY MEN EVIL BROOKHAVEN HOSPITAL We are back in the Garden, but now it is EVIL, like the Midwich School from SH 1. Move through the double doors. Save and grab the Shotgun Shells. Search Room C 2 for a First Aid Kit, which you will definitely need. Head to the elevator.

Ride it to Floor 2, 2 F. There are nurses and Shotgun Shells on M 4. Head into M 6 and grab the Dry Cell Battery and the Basement Storeroom Key. [NOTE: Grab the Dry Cell Battery! Your Flashlight will run out in the next sections, and the Dry Cell Battery will refill it!] They are located near some strange color symbol. Grab the memo nearby. There are also Handgun Bullets and a First Aid Spray in there.

Return to the elevator and go to 3 F. When you emerge, there is a weird door nearby. It needs 2 rings. Didn't the file from the last room talk about a ring? Head to S 11 and grab the Handgun Bullets and the AMPOULE! This makes Harry go to green health AND makes him invincible for about 20 seconds! Read the memo nearby.

Head to the stairs on 3 F by the Storeroom. Descend all the way to the basement level and use the Basement Storeroom Key to open it. Inside, push the shelf nearby. After a scene with Maria, climb down the ladder and grab the Copper Ring. Travel back to 3 F. Head down the elevator to 2 F. A radio show message comes from James' Radio, the one he found in the Construction Site when that monster first attacked him. Read it closely.

Travel to the Day Room on 2 F. Open the refrigerator with Maria's help to get the Lead Ring. This next section is optional. Otherwise, travel to the strange door by the elevator on 3 F. TRICK OR TREAT BOX Here is the sequence box. 1 2 301: O O O 02: O O O 03: O O OOK. Now we need to press the right buttons.

If you remember from the elevator message, you need the right answers. Well, on the '01' Row, press button 3. Press button 1 on the '02' Row. On the '03' Row, press the 3 button. The box should open, revealing 5 Boxes of Shotgun Shells and 2 Ampoules! Worth the deviating trip!

END TRICK OR TREAT BOX Now we are back on track. Head to the weird door by 3 F's working elevator. Use the Copper and Lead Rings. Head through the door and down the stairs. Down there, there is a long tunnel. Pyramid Head seems to have survived your battle from Blue Creek Apartments, so we need to run!

Run down the tunnel as fast as you can. Keep running. If Maria is murdered, the game ends. Keep running until you " re at an elevator.

After a sad scene, James is at the other section of 1 F. Don't be too sad, though. Head into the Director's Room and grab the Hospital Key. Check the map, too. Now we could head out.

Exit through the way you came in after seeing Laura. DARK SOUTH VALE SILENT HILL Head south on Carroll Street. The travel east on Rendell. Head south on Monson.

There are many items on the ground- search for many of them! Head back to Saul Street. Cross the gate. Now run to the trailer you may have gone to before and save there. Now go to Neely's Bar for an important file. Look on the window, passed the comment you saw at the beginning of the game.

Head to "Gonzale's Mexican Restaurant' on East South Vale Silent Hill. Head there by going north on Neely's Street, and East on Sanders. Head north Lindsay and grab the Wrench and memo. Now we need to get back to Rosewater Park where we first saw Maria. Go west on Katz, through the gate, near the Woodside Apartments and Blue Creek Apartments you explored at the start of the game. Continue for Rosewater Park.

Head through the left entrance of the park and find the statue of a praying woman. Behind the face of it, look for a brown spot and dig there. There is a box in which you will use the Wrench for. Now grab the Old Bronze Key. Head to the Silent Hill Historical Society.

Head there, which is west of the Rosewater Park. Enter through the door in the parking lot. Use the Silent Hill Map from the truck in the start of the game to get there. SILENT HILL HISTORICAL SOCIETY Head into the only open door in this room. Head through the hole in the wall. Keep going down for about 3 minutes until you reach a door.

Through it, take the FAK (First Aid Kit). Move to the nearest door for Handgun Bullets. Now head to the far door to continue. There is a hole in this room. Jump down. You end up in a well.

Arm the Steel Pipe you found at T exxon Gas Station. Examine every inch of the wall until you find a message saying some of the wall is weaker. When you find that part of the wall, hit it with the Steel Pipe to find a door. Head through are you are in a new section of the sewers from the first Silent Hill. Head to your right to find a blocked door.

But near it is another door to head through. At the end of the next room is a hole in the ground. We need to open the hole first. Head through the nearby door. Grab the Spiral-Writing Key. Now the room is filled with Roaches and your Flashlight goes out.

The Dry Cell Battery you found way back in the Evil Hospital. Suddenly, the door is locked. Head to the nearby panel. We need to unlock it. Check to see the lighted buttons.

This will change, depending on your difficulty level. But you must only press the lighted buttons. Try out all combinations. Eventually, you " ll get the code to get out.

Head to the bars to the right. Use the Spiral Writing Key. Jump down the hole (again). TOLUCA PRISON We are in a prison beneath the Historical Society. Run to the nearest door.

Inside is Eddie. After Eddie leaves, check the room for some items, including a Pig Tablet. Head out and turn left... all the way to the table. There is a map there. Take it! This place can be confusing!

Head down to the door to the right. Head into the shower and grab the Seductress Tablet. Use the map to get to the bottom hall of the Toluca Prison. In the bottom hall, head to the only open cellblock for a Wax Doll. Head to the right hall of the Prison now. Head north.

Head north to the middle doors of this hall and enter the one to the left. There are VERY important Rifle Shells, since we are getting the most powerful gun, the Hunting Rifle! Head to the northern hallway. To your right, head to the seventh cell block to find the Oppressor Tablet. We have 3 tablets... head to the very large room of this complex. In this yard is an hanging platform with 3 square engravings.

Place all 3 Tablets into it and you " ll hear a dying man scream. Nothing happens! Argh! Head back through the door you came from... there's a Horseshoe on the door! Grab it!

Head to the west corridor. The best way would be to cross the northern hallway back to the west hallway, to unlock some doors. Head to the very top left door of the west hall. Head through this visiting room to the other door. On this new corridor, head to the lowest right room of this hall to get a Lighter. Outside in the hallway, there is a sewer hole.

Before opening it, you might want to save in the Boy's Bathroom, nearby. Before going, check on of the doors on the left side of this hallway. Use the map for reference. Inside is the... HUNTING RIFLE!

[NOTE: The Hunting Rifle is a tad stronger than the Shotgun, but a little slower. This weapon is only recommended for groups of monsters and single Pyramid Heads if you run into one (which will be very soon, actually). The Shotgun is preferred for the last 2 bosses.] Head back to the sewer hole. Got to the COMBINE option and use it on the Wax Doll. Then select the lighter and use COMBINE again.

Then use the Horseshoe and the sewer door should open. Thanks to Brady Games' guide for this tip (since I couldn't figure this one out either: ). We aren't out of the prison yet, though. We are in the basement.

Head through the only open door. Head through the next rooms until you reach a hole (AGAIN! James' feet will eventually get CRUSHED! ). Head into the nearby elevator. Ride it to another room and save, because there is a VERY confusing level next.

LABYRINTH I call this place the labyrinth because it is a Greek word for 'maze' and believe me, it's more than just a maze! It is also something that constructs itself... if you refer to the map, the maze is building as James moves! Across from the doorway is a ladder that is blocked. Turn left and find a fork in the maze.

You should see a nearby ladder you can climb down- climb down. Pyramid Head is here, so if you want to fight, use the Rifle to scare it away. Circle the room until you feel you have made a circle and look at the map. The red shows you " ve been through that door, so you should head through the other one.

Head through. Inside is the Great Knife! It's the Knife that Pyramid Head used when you fought him in the Blue Creek Apartments and when Maria was stabbed. Grab it and 2 ammo boxes.

The Great Knife is stronger than the Steel Pipe and Wooden Plank, but a little slower. Head back through the ladder you came from. Using the map you have, head 'DOWN' to where a hole has been made. Head down. Now is the time to use that Great Knife.

BLOCK PUZZLE Head through the tunnels until you see a block with faces. Here is MY solution, though it may be random, depending on the difficulty level. The cube needs to have red eyes facing right side up. Turn the cube until you see an upside down face with green eyes.

The exit will now be open. Head through. Maria is alive! (Weird... ). Anyway, she needs to be freed and there's another way inside, passed the bars.

Head back to the room with that cube. There is a wire cutter now. OK. Fight your way to the very start of the level, where you entered from the Toluca Prison. Remember the blocked ladder? Cut it with the Wire Cutter and head down the ladder.

Head to the first ladder in a tunnel leading right. Climb that ladder. Follow the next few tunnels. There are some dead ends, but they only cause a 10-second deviation. The exits of the tunnels should eventually find you. Climb a few ladders and turn left, since Pyramid Head is nearby.

Climb the ladders. Equip the Shotgun now. A boss is coming up! Head down the hallway. BOSS # 3: DOOR BOSS DIFFICULTY: Medium Pop this thing with the Shotgun. Run around this relatively slow boss and pump this thing full of Shells.

After 10+ shells, the boss should die. This thing can have a devastating attack if it hits you. It smashes you and can cut your health down pretty low. Be careful, because 3 hits can spell James' doom. But don't worry. The relatively quick Shotgun and the slow boss are a good fit, especially with the Shotgun's sheer power.

The Hunting Rifle is also effective. But it is relatively slower and got me killed. DON'T USE IT! You can barely move with it AND it fires slower than the Shotgun. This can be your biggest blunder, so be VERY, VERY careful! BOSS # 3: DOOR BOSS After killing this bastard, Angela does the honor of torturing it after death.

Head out after Angela leaves. Head to the first door you see. Read the inscriptions on the bodies. I figured out this puzzle.

EASY MODE: The Kidnapper is innocent. NORMAL MODE: The Arsonist is innocent. HARD: The Counterfeiter is innocent. Remember their positions in this room! Head to the next door to the left you see. Inside, depending on your mode, pull the rope that had the inscription of the guy in the previous room.

If you read the papers of the hanged men, you " ll see you " re in a similar room. Pull the rope that had the innocent man and head back to the room with the bodies. The Persecuted Key is there. Grab it and head through the only door you haven't been through in the hall outside.

Proceed and you end up in Maria's Cell, but she's now dead. Who did this? Eddie? Angela? Head through the gate. You are in a weird graveyard.

Save, grab 3 Shotgun Shell boxes and head down the grave hole. Make sure you have the RIFLE equipped. Down the hole, you must fight yet another boss. BOSS # 4: EDDIE DIFFICULTY: MEDIUM After Eddie stops talking, hit Eddie with the Hunting Rifle twice. One hit from his gun with take you down to the bottom health, so heal with a First Aid Spray or Ampoule. After 3-5 Rifle hits, Eddie heads into the next room.

At this time, equip the Shotgun because Eddie will take a few more hits. Follow him and then start shooting after he shuts the hell up. Run around him and fire the Shotgun. Eddie's Pistol can kill James in even just 2 hits.

Always use a Health Drink when shot. Run around Eddie. Fire the Shotgun several more times. Eddie will eventually fall. Unlike the fight with Cyril from Silent Hill 1, Eddie can't be saved.

BOSS # 4: EDDIE After Eddie dies, exit this weird place. We are out of the Labyrinth! BOAT ADVENTURE James ends up in an area behind the Silent Hill Historical Society he explored just a few minutes ago. Now that we are out of that damn strange level, we still have to get to the Hotel over by the northern area of the lake (By the area where SH 1 took place). It's also day time, again, which is good. Save and head down the pier.

There is a boat you have to row. On Easy and Normal Mode, head toward the light by simply pressing the D-Pad. Turn right when you get on and run toward the light. On Hard mode, you must use the twin sticks. OK. Start by rotating both sticks right.

You should see the light. Now turn the left stick left and the right stick right, both at the same time. You should reach the light in no time. You are now in the hotel. LAVE VIEW HOTEL Climb the stairs and turn left. Look on a fountain for a Little Mermaid Box.

Grab it and enter the Hotel. Inside, turn left to get the Hotel Map. Use it to navigate through for the rest of the game. Enter the Lake Shore Restaurant. Investigate the piano and you get a Letter from Laura.

Find a table and gather the Fish Key. There are Door Monsters, but they are smaller than the one you saw at the Labyrinth. The Great Knife can do damage. Look for the small set of stairs behind a nearby door. Head down the B 1 F. look for the Venus Tears Bar.

It's locked. But in the nearby elevator, is a Thinner Can. Head up to 1 F and to the lobby. Inside, insert the Little Mermaid Music Box in the center stand, on the left slot. Save and head through the door left off the check in desk.

Grab the Room 312 Key. Head up the staircase and turn right through the door. Search the Cloak Room. There is a briefcase you should open with the Fish Key. Grab the Room 204 Key. Grab all the other supplies.

Head to Room 204. Unlock it and look for an Employee Elevator Key. Head through the hole in the room to the next apartment room. There are photos- use the Thinner to get a code. Use it on the nearby safe. The Cinderella Box is inside, like the Little Mermaid Box from the fountain outside.

Head to the staircase and then through the other door. Head through the white door with the Employee Elevator Key. Inside, save and there is a save point. Near the elevator is a cabinet. You MUST store all your items. EVERY LAST ONE.

Head to 1 F on the elevator. Ride down and grab another map of the hotel, displaying some employee areas. Go to the Pantry Room and collect the Cinderella Box from the shelves. Enter the Office nearby and grab the Video Tape and Can Opener. Find the staircase and head down to B 1 F. Head to the Boiler Room, avoiding any monsters. Inside, look to your right and grab a key hanging from a rope.

Head to the Kitchen now. Inside is a can. Use the Can Opener and grab a Light Bulb. Head through the other door in the kitchen to the Venus Tears Bar. On the bar, near the jukebox, use a Light Bulb on the lamp and exit the room using the Bar Key. You are now back in the hall where you found the Thinner.

Head back up to the lobby and head to the center piece where you left the Little Mermaid box. Place the Cinderella Box inside, but we need the last one- it's in the cabinet near the employee elevator. Run back there, gather all your items and head back here. Place the Snow White Box inside. There may be different combinations, so place them all in whatever order. You should get the Hotel Stairway Key.

Head to the 2 F stairs. On the 3 F level, unlock the gate to 3 F. Head to Room 312 at last. Inside, view the video tape and talk to Laura. Afterwards, exit the room. Afterwards... some things will have changed... EVIL LAKE VIEW HOTEL Now travel to the Reading Room on 2 F. Listen to the headphones.

[After playing more than once, the headphones have been determined to get you an ending. When I viewed it, I got both the In Water ending and Leave ending. It depends on your other actions.] Head to the elevator (the one NOT used by staff). Head to Room 202 to get warped outside Room 19. From there, run to the elevator. Ride it to B 1 F. Enter the Venus Tears Bar.

In the back of the bar, grab 5 Health Drinks. Run to the kitchen. There are Shotgun and Rifle Shells. You " ll need the Shotgun Shells, trust me! Head to the Employee Stairs.

After speaking to Angela, exit. When you exit, you aren't in the previous room anymore- you " re at the top of the employee stairs! Weird... Head to 1 F. The Manager's Office has some Rifle Shells you may need.

Head through the other door that's unlocked. Run down the hall, avoiding the monsters underneath. At the end are 9 total save points. SAVE! SAVE!! SAVE!

Load the Shotgun, since you know have to fight a boss in the lobby. BOSS # 5: TWO PYRAMID HEADS DIFFICULTY: FAIRLY HARD This is where your skills as a Silent Hill 2 gamer are tested. This boss is like the one you faced in the Blue Creek Apartments- except there are TWO of them! Also, you MUST shoot them this time, instead of just dodge like in the Blue Creek Apartments and at the labyrinth and hospital.

Load the Shotgun. It is faster than the Hunting Rifle, yet slightly weaker than the Hunting Rifle. Which should you choose? Like the battle with Eddie at the Labyrinth, quickness is more than power. If you are slow, the Pyramid Heads will slash you up into pieces. If the shots are powerful, you can squeeze by with one shot before running again.

There are 2 different strategies here. One for the Shotgun and one for the Rifle, since different gamers can utilize both weapons their own way. SHOTGUN STRATEGY Load the Shotgun. Get as far from either one as possible. Then start firing.

Fire 2 shots and move around them as they approach. They are slightly slow, yet slightly fast. Shoot them in a 2 shot pattern. You might get hit in the process- use a Health Drink or Ampoule. The Ampoule will protect you from damage for 10 seconds- so this might be the time to equip the Rifle and fire off 5 powerful shots. 19-25 shots should kill them after they stab each other.

Pyramid Head's gone now! YAY! Take THAT, punk! [That bastard who killed me twice! SHOTGUN STRATEGY RIFLE STRATEGY So you like the Rifle better? OK, that's fine.

Load your rifle and run to a corner, far from them. Fire one shot. If they are pretty far, shoot again and run. Run far from them, since they are medium distance in moving. Fire one shot or two shots, again. Run to the first corner you were in and repeat.

15-18 shots kill them at long last. BOSS # 5: TWO PYRAMID HEADS Run to where the Pyramid Heads are and search them for Scarlet and Rust-Colored Eggs. Head to the nearby doors. Insert the Scarlet Egg to the right door and the Rust Colored Egg on the left door.

Head through one of the doors now- it doesn't matter which one. Cross the hallway- if you listen as in stop running... you get a certain ending. If you run through without stopping, you probably will get another ending, based on my experience. Head through the door at the end.

At the other side, turn left and head up the long stairs. At the top is the boss... Anyway, you must fight a boss. Arm... whatever you want to arm, because like the last boss, there are 2 strategies to use here.

BOSS # 6: DEMON MONSTER DIFFICULTY: MEDIUM Compared to Eddie, she's a total wimp. Arm whatever you want. So what should you arm? For the challenge, use the Handgun. For the mid challenge, use the Shotgun. For the real challenge, use the Hunting Rifle.

HANDGUN TIPS For the Handgun, you must learn to run, shoot, run and shoot. If you fought Pyramid Head with the Handgun at the Blue Creek Apartment Building, you might know how to do it. Shoot, run, shoot, run is the strategy. Since the gun is quick, 3 shots can be fired before you must run again. Take advantage of the smallness and quickness of this gun.

If the boss can never hit you, just pelting it with one bullet before running again can guarantee you a victory. I won't suggest this strategy, but merely if you want the challenge. It's harder than you believe! RIFLE TIPS The Rifle is the strongest and slowest weapon- major sacrifice! Shoot one shot and run.

If you " re lucky, the bosses' flies won't hit you. Use the strategy from the Pyramid Head fight to beat this boss. SHOTGUN TIPS Use the strategy you used on pyramid Head and Eddie to kill the boss. One last shot once the boss is on the ground will kill this freak.

BOSS # 6: DEMON MONSTER.
