Take the Mk.2 gun or other rifle and do your job.

Keep an eye on the guys on the platform above you.

When they are gone - it’s time for the Screaming Mantis.

PlayStation

As you probably noticed - there are two dolls levitating near her.

They are your target.

Don’t bother with anything else.

PlayStation

Screaming Mantis would attempt to control Meryl and she will start to shot at you.

Just avoid her - killing her means failing the mission.

At the beginning the Mantis is hanging above the ceiling.

Use the sniper rifles and shoot the doors.

To get out of her power use the syringe.

At some point Mantis would have a go at hide the dolls behind Meryl and some soldier.

Shoot only when you are sure you don’t hit Meryl.

Concentrate on the soldier and the doll.

When the Mantis would drop the dolls pick them as fast as it’s possible for you to.

PlayStation

Use the menu to set one of them as your weapon.

Aim at Mantis and make a run at hit her.

After a few seconds the Screaming Mantis would lose her armour.

And that’s the last phase of the battle - you know what to do.

Drebin would contact you to tell you about her past.

There are some identical rooms crowding with the Dwarf-Gekkos waiting for you.

The best way is to ignore the robots, run and jump over them.

There is just a “microwave” corridor between you and the sercer.

Keep on tapping the triangle button and Snake should get through it.

Fighting Liquid Snake is one of the hardest parts of the game.

The key to succes is blocking his blows.

Press L1 to block and R1 to attack.

Block and counter it - it’s 100% efficient.

Sometimes, avoiding Liquid’s attacks, you would have to press the buttons shown onscreen.

if you succeed - Liquid’s health level would significantly drop.

The second part of the duel is the toughest.

Liquid Ocelot would try attacking you using some big swing punch.

Always keep on blocking, try getting of the way of his attack and then counter.

Stay with you previous tactics.

There is one head attack you cannot block - but fortunately it doesn’t take you much health.

Remember - be patient, learn how to block and avoid enemy’s attacks.

At the end of the fight both guys would start to move slowly and the health bars would disapper.

It is going to be much easier now.
