Mercenaries - Platform: Playstation 1 Infinite Ammunition: -------------------- Go to the PDA's faction status screen and enter the following on the D-pad: RIGHT, LEFT, RIGHT, RIGHT, LEFT, RIGHT, LEFT, LEFT.

A soft click should confirm the code's activation. Unlimited Health: ----------------- Go to the factions screen in your PDA (subscreen), and enter Up, Down, Up, Down, Left, Right, Left, Right. Make the most of side missions: ------------------------------- The first side missions "$" you come across are really simple"Can you get from Camp X to Camp Y in under 2 minutes?" You can pass these easily with lots of extra time, BUT DON'T. These missions do not disappear when completed. They allow you compete against your previous time for the same $5000 prize. So if you let the clock run till its been 1:55 before completing and then come back and do it in 1:50 then 1:45 you will net yourself alot more money. This train of thought works for other missions too. There is a side mission where you push a barrel over 50m, but you can keep trying so ideally you would push it 50, 51,52,53,54 to the limit. Chopper Locations: North Province: ---------------------------------- NK Gunship - East of Changsong Train station there is an eliptical road. Head east from it and a small airbase can be found with several gunships and SAM carriers.

The temple northwest of the Industrial Zone has the chopper, along with one of the mission's objectives. Chopper Locations: South Province UH60 Transport - The $ Challenge southwest of the DMZ (the AN HQ is in the DMZ area on the map). UH60 Transport - Northeast of the DMZ. This chopper becomes available after the Ace Of Clubs contract is resolved successfully. LHX Chopper - Inchon. This chopper is available after the South Korean mission involving the missile trucks at Inchon is resolved successfully. WZ81 Chopper - Pyongyang Airport. This chopper is available after the Chinese mission involving Nampo is resolved successfully. Faster Beacon Timers: --------------------- You can glitch the beacon timer by purchasing the same item in the Merchant of Menace shop once the first beacon is deployed (this assumes you have access to that same item in the Mafia shop).

AH-56 Gunship: -------------- This is an incredibly powerful helicopter gunship that is armed with rapid-fire 30mm cannon (grenade launcher), anti-air missiles, anti-tank missiles, and dumb-fire rockets. You must have an anti-armor rifle and a RPG or anti tank rocket. Grenades work somewhat, but are not recommended. You cannot use an anti air. Find one flying (try the North Korean Allied MASH, when you complete the second ACE contract you will "unlock" this). Once you are there, find a YAH-56 Gunship with the binoculars. Then, go to it and make sure it is over flat land. Take out your RPG or your anti tank rocket and shoot above it. It will fly down slightly. Then, take out your anti armor rifle and shoot the pilot (located the back seat of the helicopter). If you cannot see him through the glass, shoot under the cockpit. Once he is dead, you will have about $25, 000 depleted and your helicopter should land on the ground safely. Try again if it falls on its side or something else happens. Do not be afraid of the tail rotor. If it is half way in a rock, it does not effect it. Note : This strategy can be used with any helicopter.
