Silent Hill 3 cheats & more for PlayStation 2 (PS2)

Hints

Second Lobby Door Password In Brookhaven Hospital

The password is an easy math problem. The first digit is greater than the second digit. The second digit is the third digit multiplied by two. The third digit is half of the first digit. The solution is 8 6 3 4, on the normal action and normal riddle difficulty settings. The solution on the easy difficulty setting is 4 6 3 9. The solution on the hard difficulty setting is 4 8 9 6.

An Easier Start

A way to start off the game quick and easy instead of having to do all of the otherworld mission at the beginning is to walk beside robbie the rabbit, go to the edge of the bench, and walk to the right. You will fall off a cliff, instead of doing the first quest and/or dying by monsters.

Correct Code For Bookstore Door

After using the key to unlock the front door to the bookstore, directly to the right in the isle will be red books on the floor. After picking up those books, besides the roman numerals imprinted on them there are also numbers half visible that need to be combined. Previously whoever wrote the cheat gave incorrect info. Now the correct code to the door behind the counter, while game is in normal modes, is 4852 type that in and the door will unlock and you'll be on your way.

Stop Intermission Sequences From Resetting (demo Version)

Keep rotating the Left Analog-stick.

Pause Canceling

Almost all action scenes can be canceled (such as when you are going up or down from an elevator) with Start. However, there is a point in the final area where the lift scene can be canceled, but it will pause the game first. When you press Start again, the game will resume, but the lift scene will be canceled.

Defeating The Last Boss With Less Ammunition

Equip the handgun and fire two shots. One should be fine, but fire two just in case. After Claudia bends over, equip the Maul (spiked mace) and do the overhead attack by pressing X hard. Since you will be invulnerable when Heather swings the Maul, Claudia will not hit you with her Retaliation smack. Note: Even though the swing is slow, Claudia will just wait for it.

Arrange the cards as follows on the normal action and normal difficulty settings:

Northwest position: Eye Of The Night 
Northeast position: Moon 
West position: High Priestess 
East position: Fool

Arrange the cards as follows on the hard difficulty setting:

Northwest position: The High Priestess 
North position: The Eye Of The Night 
Center position: The Fool 
East position: The Moon 
Southwest position: The Hanged Man
