Bulldozer Overdose
At the end of level 3, you will get stuck in a large room with some goons, a pair of large rocket launchers, a pair of large ninjas, and a pair of bulldozers. This is no easy task. Strafe around all the commotion. Concentrate your fire on the large rocket launchers and the large ninjas. If you are playing as Grave and you have plenty of demolition shots, they should not last long. Just use the Gun Dance attack a few times. Keep shooting and earning more demolition shots to get rid of them if you run out. The problem is getting rid of the bulldozers. Run into a corner of the room. The bulldozers are too big to hit you in that small space and will stay stuck to each other in front of you, waiting for your punishment. If other goons show up, do not worry about them. Keep pressing [Square] without moving from your corner and they will soon stop emerging. Then, hold [Square] until your guns start to go aflame, and release to shoot some burst shots. Regular bullets do not work on the front of the bulldozers. When the front of the bulldozers explode, they are now vulnerable to any attack. Unleash your rage on them, without moving from your little corner.

Defeating the three bodied Boss
At the end of Chapter 6, you face the largest Boss of the game (but not the most difficult). This Boss is large, light blue, and is a mixture of three different men. Do not run around him. You will only make it more difficult for yourself. Instead, take him face-on. Place yourself exactly in front of the energy supplies of the monster. This will save you time later. Start shooting at him, standing completely still. No matter what, never stop shooting throughout this battle. Pay close attention to the movements of your opponent. When he starts to wiggle or shake, it means that he is about to shoot many little bombs around the room. When he starts to wiggle, start swinging constantly with your coffin (if you are Grave). This will deflect them back at it for major damage. When he opens his large mouth, do not panic. Instead, keep shooting at a fast rate. He will feel your blows, and will not be able to shoot his large bomb at you. When you see him move his sword to one side, jump straight up -- he is about to swing at you. When you get used to the patterns, it will be easy for you to finish his life bar. He will fall down. Turn around and start shooting at the energy supplies indicated by the target. If you have some demolition shots, use the slow motion so that you have more time to shoot. You do not have much time -- in a matter of seconds the monster will come back fully restored. Have some patience as this battle is going to last a long time. Repeat the process and you will come out nearly untouched.
