-TimeSplitters for Playstation 2- Written by Shinya e-mail: kain_is_evil@yahoo.com -Walkthrough for Mansion on Normal and Hard- -Introduction- As I continue to write about this great game, I decided that why not do a FAQ/Walkthrough for Mansion. Inclosed in this walkthrough will be a very detailed way of going through Mansion on the Normal and Hard difficulties. I will write one walkthrough and specify if that part of the level is on the Normal or Hard difficutly, reason being is that both difficulties are very similar enemy wise and It will save me quite a bit of typing time. And also to get the Hardest stage out of the way. I know quite a few people are just pulling there hair trying to figure out how to get through this level and how I aquired such a great time on it. Well, I will tell you how I did it. Note: That speed strafing comes in handy on this stage. Speed is the main key in order to make this level look like cake. For those of you who don't know what speed strafing is, back in Goldeneye if you walked and strafed at an angle at the same time you could actually run faster than normal. This also works in this game, and is a key element in getting other timed secrets. Note: this symbol (*) means that this part of the walkthrough only covers what is in Hard. If you are trying to beat it on Normal, just disreguard that section until you try it on Hard. -Mansion- -You will start off in a room with 4 green Zombies. Shoot each of there heads off and continue through the wood door after it opens. *You will start in the same room with 8 green zombies instead of 4. -Once in the next room you will see 3 zombies appear. Only kill the one that is in your way, meaning shoot his head off. Head forward toward the outside of the Mansion. You should see 2 Overall Mutants w/ shotguns, one on the porch and one at ground level. Take them both out from far range quickly. *Right before you exit the room to the outside there is another Overall Mutant w/ a shotgun to your very left. Take him out if you wish to. I prefer not to save time. -Now take a right under the porch and head into the cellar. -Here there are 2 zombies, one to your right and one that will appear once you come to him at the top of the very small flight of stairs. Run toward the one at the flight of small stairs. Don't shoot him just lure him toward you out of your running path. *Here there will be 3 zombies, one to your left, one to your right, and the one on top of the small flight of stairs. This is a little trickier. You have to have good aim and shoot the zombies head off as he appears on top of the flight of stairs. That way you will not get caught on his undead body. -Once you have reached the hallway of the cellar entrance make a quick right, and quickly shoot the priest mutant w/ the shotgun. Then quickly turn right again to shoot another, then another quick right to shoot a Overall mutant w/ a shotgun, and head forward to shoot the last Overall mutant w/ a shotgun in the hallway. Now head down the hallway, a girl zombie will appear, shoot her head off. *Same stragety here, just that there are 2 more Mutants w/ shotguns. One which will come after you at the end of the hallway, and one sitting at the second to last opening on the left of the hallway. Just take the one coming down the hallway out after you have killed the first 2 Preist Mutants, he will come to you, dont worry. And as you head down the hallway one more Zombie will appear, take his head off and take out the last Preist mutant to the left before you head any further. -Once in the last section of the cellar, 3 zombies will appear, strafe around them and run. Also don't forget to take out the Police Zombie w/ a shotgun in here too. Now look up the stairs to the Mansion and take out the last Preist Mutant w/ a shotgun. -Finally inside the Mansion NOTE: If you see a Overall Mutant and a Police Zombie both w/ shotguns in this room, you need to START ALL OVER AGAIN and do the beginning part a lot faster. This is the huge time saver. -Head straight forward behind the counter there is a small room w/ health and ammo if needed. Now head back and take a right toward the room with the dear heads, speed strafing past the stair case to avoid the 2 jacket zombies shotguns. -Once in the room with the Dear heads, they will star shooting you. Don't try to take them out, just run. The room exits to the right and will bring you to the main room of the Mansion where the A-Challenges take place. -Here from a distance there are 2 Police zombies at ground level w/ shotguns, one to your right and one to your left. Disarm the one to your right first then the one to your left by just shooting them, you do not have to kill them, just have them drop there shotguns. Head underneath toward the stairs straight ahead of you. Go underneath that flight, there is health here. Now head out to your right after getting the health and just run up the flight up stairs on the LEFT side of the room. Once up the stairs take a left and head down the hallway. *Just one more Police Zombie at ground level to the very left of you once you come out of the hallway from the room with the Dear heads. Do the same thing as above. Note: Once in the upstairs hallway, if you see a Police zombie w/ a shotgun, guess what. You are GOING TO SLOW AND YOU WILL HAVE TO START OVER and do the whole level over again a lot FASTER. -Ok, the hallway will turn right, head into the bathroom straight ahead of you, and look foward there should be a police zombie in the room right next to the bathroom, disarm him. Now look down the hallway past the stairs, there should be another, disarm him as well. -Speed strafe past the stair case and lure the 2 jacket zombies with Shotguns down the stairs and wait for them. Disarm them both if you wish, but I like to shoot there heads clean off so I wont get caught on there corpses heading up the stairs. -Head up there stairs to the attic. Once up there head right, and take out a Preist Mutant w/ a shotgun. Now run straight foward and to the right, past another hiding Mutant, don't worry about him yet, just run. Now once you cant't go straight anymore you will take a left head down the hallway, you will run past a flight of stairs heading down, till you enter a room where the "Bones" are. Grab them and start backtracking to that flight of stairs. Remember the Mutant that you passed up, well now is the time to kill him. Knowing the AI, he should be right infront of you before the stairs heading out of the Mansion. -Now, head down the flight of stairs to another flight of stairs also heading down. Go down and out onto the back porch of the Mansion. -There is a mutant hiding under the porch, if you want, take him out, if not just drop down, turn a little to the left and hit the RED CIRLCE. If you are low on health I suggest you go down the stairs and take him out from a distance just to be safe. Then hit the RED CIRLCE. *Same thing just that in addition to the Mutant under the porch, there is a Jacket Zombie outside to the very left, I just ran, but them again if you are low on health I suggest you take both of these guys out from a distance. And then hit the RED CIRCLE. -What do you get?- -Normal- Just For Beating- Mall (Arcade Level) Timed Secret- Overall Mutant Target Time- unsure of (I got 1 minute 37.8 seconds) -Hard- Just For Beating- Preist Mutant (Playable Character) Timed Secret- Girl Zombie (Playable Character) Target Time- unsure of (I got 1 minute 33.1 seconds) -Last words- Now, I don't expect everyone to agree with my tactics on this level. This is what worked for me. This stage must be done very fast, trust me its a lot easier this way. And some of you it may take longer to do that others, don't worry this is by far the hardest stage in the game. I hope this will helps a lot of people out. -Legal Stuff- This document may not be used for personal public re-distribution, and may not be posted on any other site other than GameFAQS.
