Defeating Some Bosses (Fighting)
Some Bosses will have trouble defending against throw attacks. Make sure when you have them in your grasp, punch or kick them before throwing them. Once they are thrown, immediately run to them and grab them as soon as they get up and repeat. Throwing them into walls seems to work best. If they grab you, immediately press the B button to break the hold (which your character has learned by the Prison Level).

Defeating Numerous Prisoners In Cell Blocks A-D
When you enter a Cell Block, notice that once you enter the floor just past the entrance way (the gate), thugs will turn and face you. However, if you turn around and run back towards the gate, they will turn away from you. Try to lure each prisoner one at a time to chase you into this area. If you are patient, many will eventually turn their backs to you and walk away, allowing you to snap their necks without fighting them. It takes time, but it will be less of a drain on your Health Bar than having to fight them all at once. Once you clear the first area of a Cell Block, you must fight the back area with even more thugs. The stairs are the next point in which thugs will chase you and then turn away. This part is a little trickier, but it can work the same as the first area. Just remember to try and lure only one prisoner to the stairs to fight you. Also note that you can run up the stairs at anytime and seach for Health in the Cells.

Getting Out Of Cells Easier
When trying to get out of cells which have Health, press Y to dive out of the door. This usually lets you fly by any thugs coming into the door.

Defeating Sickle
Although it's not easy, Sickle seems to be allergic to straight punch combos. Immediately start off with a punch combo. When he gets up, try it again. If he dodges your attack, wait until he's finished and then start a punch combo again. Run around the room a lot. Sickle can't be thrown that easily and it's best to avoid that route unless you get lucky. Dodge or block when necessary, but don't rely on it too much as Sickle can grab you when you are blocking.

Defeating Tattoo
Tattoo happens to have two henchman who are invincible. Ignore them and focus all of your attention on Tattoo. Immediately start off with a punch combo and then run to the other side of the room. Once on the other side of the room, reposition the camera (by pressing Black button twice) and watch for Tattoo. If you can get him alone, take him on with a punch or kick combo. He is more susceptible to throws than Sickle. Once he is down, retreat to the other side of the room and repeat the process. There are two full Healths in the opposite corners of the room where the laundry baskets are. Make sure you have enough time to get in and out of there without getting trapped. Use the Dive if you have to get by Tattoo or the henchman. This is an extremely difficult boss battle due to the two invincible henchman. Just remember to be patient and wait for the perfect opportunity to attack Tattoo.

Defeating Enemies Easily
The best way to defeat enemies is your best friend....shadow! Try to stay in a safe spot and keep low by pressing "L". Target the enemy by pressing "R" and Press "A"! Keep using this technique. If you lose cover while hiding, Tap "Y" real quick in the opposite direction of the enemy. This also works when you are without a gun!

View All Movies
Every time you beat a chapter you get a movie. So if you want to watch all the movies beat the game and when you want to watch the movie/scene over again for some reason like you really liked that scene or some annoying person called you right then. After you beat the game at the main menu go scroll down until you get to where it says "chapters" and select that.

Faster Button Tapping When Fighting Mayor Pennacle
If you reposition your fingers over the A&B buttons, you can beat him in like a few minutes with no problem. Use your index finger to hit the A button and your "Bird" finger to hit the B button and you should be able to do it much quicker.

Killing Flamethrower Guy
If you wanna kill him but your having a problem killing everyone else, first you have to shoot him many times with the mark (use all ammo), then get a Spas which is somewhere on the ground, then you go behind the huge circle thing to get heath. He'll follow you and when he does, turn around and hold down Y (slow dive like the matrix) and shoot with the spas in the air and when you land and hes not dead, shoot all of your other weapons at him while moving in circles so he doesnt hit you.
