Hint: Destroying Majestic cars Use your PK ability on a Majestic limo. Hold L1 all the time. Get a wall between you and the car then start running away from the wall until the car smashes into it. Keep running backwards and the car will eventually explode. This trick can also be used to take out normal cars and people.
Mmm... Brains! (increase DNA) Hold L2 at the Mothership's main menu and press R1(2), R2(2), Left, Right, Left, Right, R2, R1, then release L2. A message will confirm correct code entry.
Hint: Awareness levels The awareness levels at at the top of the screen. They are four basic icons. The first one indicates that civilians are aware of your presence and its color should be purple. The second one indicates when the police are sent to investigate, and are on the scene with a yellow car symbol. The third one is a big orange star, which indicates that the military are involved. The fourth one is Majestic, a top secret government agency which has the power of seeing through your disguise and bringing you down with high tech weaponry. When you alerted to the police and the military (the orange star and the yellow police car) you can disguise yourself as a soldier for the military alert level or a policeman disguise for the police alert level. You can just use a normal civilian disguise for the first icon. You can also find hiding places or use your Jetpack to escape. For the Majestic alert, disguise yourself as one of them, but do not get too close or your disguise will deactivate, revealing your alien form. The Majestic symbol is a big red M. Keep moving when you fight them and look for out men in black with big green guns.
Hint: Pinky And The Brain reference In the final mission, scan Silhouette's mind. Eventually she will think "What was I doing? Oh yeah. The same thing I do every night. Try to take over the world!". Hint: Plan 9 From Outer Space reference: Halfway through the game you will experience a level where you go to the drive-in to switch films with the one that is showing. Watch what is showing before you switch films to see that the film is Edward D. Wood, Jr.'s Plan 9 From Outer Space.
Glitch: Put chicken through the ground When at Turnipseed Farm, PK a chicken. Slam it into the ground, then hold Down and walk backwards. The chicken will go through the ground and make a splashing noise.
Aware Like A Fox (maximum alert meter) Pause game play, then hold L2 and press Right, Square, R2, R1, Right, R2, then release L2 while the game is still paused. A message will confirm correct code entry.
Hint: Fly after Jetpack has run out To fly after your Jetpack has run out, quickly tap X.
Hint: HoloBob when near Majestic Majestic will not always jam your disguise if you get too close. This only happens if you are on a mission. Otherwise, you can walk about six feet away from them and they will not jam your disguise.
Bulletproof Crypto (invincibility) Pause game play while playing as Crypto, then hold L2 and press Square, Circle, Left(2), Circle, Square, then release L2 while the game is still paused. A message will confirm correct code entry.
Deep Thinker (unlimited concentration) Pause game play, then hold L2 and press R1, R2, Circle, Right, R2, Circle, then release L2 while the game is still paused. A message will confirm correct code entry. Your concentration meter must be above 0% or you will not be able to use any of your mental abilities.
Hint: Mutant thoughts If you scan a mutant a few times, eventually he will say, "1... +... 1... =... window".
Hint: Hypnotize faster When trying to hypnotize people, rapidly tap Square.
Hint: Staying human After leaving your UFO, aim at a human and press Circle. When you have changed into the human, the bar on the top left corner of the screen will go down. When it is all gone, you will change back into an alien. If you want to remain human, turn into a human and while walking around, scan other humans or animals to make the bar on the top left corner stay up.
Turn into a human then enable the "Ammo-a-plenty" code. You will stay human forever. You do not have to scan thoughts to get out of the human body - just press Circle.
Hint: Control objects When you pick something up, you can control it with the Right Analog-stick.
Hint: Mayor statements During mission 3, to keep the town people happy when disguised as Mayor choose the following statements.
Tell The Truth Blame Communism Tell A Joke Threaten Communists Make Empty Promises Blame Cows
Hint: Lower brain juice meter When you are in the form of another person, to make you brain juice meter go down, read other people's thoughts.
B-Movie Theater bonuses Complete the listed level to unlock the listed movie under the B-Movie Theater option. Furon Down!: Furon Down! Outro Movie: Attack Of The 50 ft. President Plan 9 from Outer Space: Teenage Zombies from Outer Space Teenagers from Outer Space: Attack Of The 50 ft. President Hint: Pox remarks: Allow the game to idle at the mission selection screen and Pox will make various remarks.
Hint: Finding weapons When you unlock Area 42, you should see some bunkers that represent bomb shelters. They all have ammunition inside.
Hint: Better DNA value Every chance you get, do not kill the human before you extract their brain stem. Extract their brain stem first as it will make the DNA worth more (25 instead of 10).The easiest humans to do this to are the scientists in the level with glowing cows. For some reason, if the person that is important to you dies (the person you need to abduct), extract their brain stem before you return to the Mothership -- the DNA is usually worth more.
It is rare to find humans with brain stems that are worth 50 or 100 DNA. Most humans have brain stems that are only worth 10 or 25 DNA. If you walk around Union Town, there will be humans with signs on them reading, "REPENT THE END IS NEAR". Those humans will have a brain stem worth 50 DNA, no matter what.
Mystery Agents' brain stems are worth 25 DNA points most of the time, whether dead of not.
The Psi G-Men are worth 150 DNA alive and 75 DNA dead.
Hint: Getting a lift Enable the "Bulletproof Crypto" code. Go on top of a car (military trucks and tanks work best). Aim your Ion Detonator at the vehicle. Detonate it and you will be shot into the air. You can use your jetpack to fly away.
Hint: Extract DNA faster While extracting a person (alive or dead), tap Circle quickly. You will get their DNA easier. This is useful against the M Agents and
Nobody Loves You (reset alert meter) Pause game play, then hold L2 and press R2, Right, R2, R1, Square, Right, then release L2 while the game is still paused. A message will confirm correct code entry.
Hint: Radio towers When you have to defend the radio towers, you will get to use the atomic blast in your space ship. Be very careful. If you shoot too close to the towers it will bring down there health even more.
Hint: Screensaver Allow the game to idle. Eventually the screen will turn black and white and elevator music will play in the background.
Glitch: Human stuck on movie screen Go to Rockwell Drive-In and PK a human. Push the human into the movie screen. They will freak out and become stuck in the screen.
Hint: Getting away from the law Forget running away from the authorities with short legs. Use your jetpack liberally to fly away. Press Left Analog-stick Forward and hold X to boost away.
Disguise yourself as a human to help you to get around virtually undetected. You cannot be seen by anyone if you are in stealth mode, even the police and the military. When Majestic appears, never get close to them. They will bring it down when you glow red. That does not listed that you are being jammed; it just warns you if an agent is too close to your presence. Figure out a way to take them out or avoid them. The PK is recommended as a good stealth weapon against them.
After you complete the game all brain stems will be worth more when you use the anal probe Citizen from 10 to 15 Cops from 25 to 40 Repent men (Union City) 50 to 75 Army from 25 to 40 G-Men from 50 to 75 This will help to buy the expensive final upgrades.
When Pox has you take out the President, just run up, extract his brain. and take it. When you do this you will get 200 DNA. That is the most you can get from a single human.
To get more DNA from humans, first use Hypno on them. For example, using Hypno on a town crazy (the one with the sign) can result in 200 DNA.
To probe a Majestic Agent, cycle to your anal probe and charge it. Then, shoot the agent. Do this three times and the agent brain will pop out. It is worth 75 DNA each time. Shoot a human (normally worth 25 DNA) with the anal probe a few times without charging it, then shoot them with full charge. Their brains may now be worth 50 DNA instead of the usual 25. This is best used at Tunipseed Farm and Rokwell. Farmers and cowboys work the best. This does not always work, and never works on army men and Majestic Agents. The best way to super charge DNA is to use your Zap O Matic. Zap the person just before they die. Then, hold L1, target the person, and rapidly tap Circle. Their brain should now have be super charged DNA.
Hint: Village People reference Scan a cop in the Santa Modesta area and you will eventually hear, "If only I had a cowboy, an Indian, and a construction worker".
Hint: Finding more probes Probes are necessary to get upgrades faster. In order to find them all, make sure to look high up on rocks or hard to reach places. Your jetpack is essential in getting to the high places. You may have to get up on the ledge or building, then use your jetpack to fly higher to get the probe.
When you are in Capitol City, you can find about ten probes by the broken Pentagon.
Hint: Super Crypto Enable the "Deep Thinker", "Bulletproof Crypto", and "Ammo-A-Plenty" codes then get all of Crypto's upgrades. After this you can turn into a human and walk around TK'ing everything.
Glitch: Shoot into the air Go to Area 42 at the four way intersection near the airplane hangers. Stand behind an army truck when it is near the center of the intersection. Wait until the troops inside it begin to exit, then shoot a Ion Disintegrater. You should be shot into the sky, but not killed. Pox will then bring you back to the mother ship.
Hint: Easy DNA If you need extra DNA or you are running low for an expensive upgrade, go back to the Turnipseed Farm level. Extract as many brains as desired. The Anal Probe Gun is a good weapon for this. Its much easier to use than rapidly pressing the Circle to extract the brain stems of humans, as one charged shot from the Anal Probe will make their brains explode. You need three successful hits on Majestic Agents, two successful hits on the soldiers, and one hit for the policemen. Normally you can choose to extract your brain stem with the probe button (L1) and tapping Circle rapidly to extract DNA faster. However this is not an effective tactic to use as Majestic Agents and soldiers take more concentration to extract their brain stems. Forget the concentration meter and use the Anal Probe Gun. To aim, use the Right Analog-stick and place it over a human. Then, hold R1 to charge up the Anal Probe Gun. Release R1 to fire at the selected target. One shot is all that is needed to take down some humans, but others may require more. However, you have unlimited energy with the weapon.
Brain extraction and cortex scanning is best done with the anal probe, and not the concentration meter. A fully charged blast from this weapon is all you need to kill them. Make sure it is a direct hit. You can adjust your aim by using the Right Analog-stick. You can do it with the extract ability, but you must remember that the Majestic military and the police require a lot of concentration to snatch their brain stems. The anal probe weapon should prove useful wit them. Cortex scanning can refill the concentration meter and will give you a longer Holobob. Be sure to scan some humans to keep it fully charged.
Hint: Literary reference If you scan a Psi-Mutant a few times, he will say "Algernon... Good mouse... Smarter... than... Charley". The Psi-Mutant is thinking about the book, "Flowers For Algernon".
Hint: Easy collect brainstem puzzles Enter a collect brainstem puzzle. Find out how many you need. Then, stand around extracting the brains and leave them laying there close by. When you have enough, go to the challenge and enter it. You can easily win by doing this.
Hint: Abduction Slingshot When you are in Santa Modesta, go into your ship and cycle to the "Abducto Beam". When any form of car is directly underneath your ship, abduct it and go near one of the bigger buildings and keep going. The car will remain against the wall of the building as you go along. When you keep moving, the car will come at you fast but will not hit you. As the car comes at you, release the "Abducto Beam". The car will go flying through the air. This also is an easy way of getting cars to explode against the tall building.
Hint: Extra jet pack distance When using all the power in your jet pack, repeatedly tap X and you can get to farther distances.
Hint: Get on Santa Modesta tower To get on top of the Santa Modesta's SMCBS TV station towers, get on top of the station's roof. Then, jump onto the satellite dish and from there, to the slim post. When on the post, jump and use the "Extra jet pack distance" hint to get to tower 2. From tower 2 you can also go to the other tower. From that altitude the police, army, and Majestic cannot see you. Use the Ion Detonator to blow them up. This is best done when aiming down before jumping. You can then see where you are landing.
Hint: Levitation death It you levitate a person for a long time, they will die.
Hint: Faster destruction in the UFO Instead of holding R1 to destroy buildings or large objects, tap R1 and the destruction will happen faster without waiting for the recharge.
Glitch: Moonwalk Stand in an open area on any level and walk forward. Keep decreasing your speed until you eventually begin walking in place.
Hint: HoloBob Put your target (dot in the middle of the screen) on any human, and press Circle. In order to maintain your HoloBob, you must read the thoughts of the humans walking around. You can read the same person's thoughts repeatedly to keep your mental powers charged.
Pox Unlocks (all upgrades) Pause game play while on the Mothership, then hold L2 and press Square, Circle, Left(2), Circle, Square, then release L2 while the game is still paused. A message will confirm correct code entry. All upgrades for the currently unlocked weapons will be available for purchase from Pox's lab.
Ammo-A-Plenty (unlimited ammunition) Pause game play, then hold L2 and press Left, Circle, R2, Right, R1, Square, then release L2 while the game is still paused. A message will confirm correct code entry.
Hint: Learn Silhouette's gender early When in Area 42, scan the minds of the Majestic Agents. Eventually, one will have a thought that reveals that Silhouette is a girl.
Hint: Jetpack battery Examine the back of the Jetpack when you first take it out. You will see three green rectangles. They will turn red and act as a battery gauge. That is why you cannot fly for very long.
Hint: Movement The more you move, the harder it will be for your enemy to it you. Being a stationary target for the enemy is not a good idea. Make it difficult for your enemies by moving side to side. This also works with the shotgun farmers. It is also the best way to fight the Majestic and the military soldiers with rifles. In the saucer you must strafe out of the way. This can save Crypto's life. Avoid the heat seeking missiles. When you see one locking on, take evasive action by moving to the side. It will miss you. This technique requires some practice.
Hint: Ride the Washington Monument Find the monument, then throw cars at it until it breaks into two pieces. Get on the long pointy piece, PK the middle, and try to stay on.
Hint: Ultimate saucer Enable the "Bulletproof Crypto" "Ammo-A-Plenty" codes while on your saucer. It will not become damaged or lose ammunition.
