Viewtiful Joe 2 Cheats (PlayStation 2)

Successfully complete the game in V-Rated mode to unlock Ultra V-Rated mode.

Ms. Bloody Rachel is your big replay against the bosses Big John, Flinty Stone, Camoleon,
and Frost Tiger (in that order). There is no big change in their attacks, but their
patterns are slightly different and HP is much higher. They are also yellow now.

Switch to Silvia, then do Slo Mo and Replay followed by Close Up. Then, punch the enemy
for three times the damage.

Get the Blue Cool Kick power up. Then while in battle, use Blue Cool Kick (while in
the air, hold Down, and Kick). She will use a diagonal kick, then use Slo-mo, Replay, and
Zoom in. This will do a lot of damage. Note: This works well against Bosses.

Whenever playing as Silvia transformed, double jump into the air and rapidly press
Punch. She will slowly fall to the ground while firing her gun. This is useful when
facing multiple enemies.

To use the Six Cannon in battle or anywhere else, you must have an almost entire bar of
VFX (plus the four to five mini-bars). Then, hold R2 until it gets to the last two VFX. A
cannon will appear and shoot a large beam with the switched character in it. This works
well against Bosses.

Successfully complete all 37 Chambers to get a Rainbow V saved game icon. Successfully
complete the game on the Kids or Adult difficulty setting to get a Red V saved game icon.

Use Slo Mo when enemies are about to attack you.

To beat Frost Tiger, you must use Joe for the entire battle. First, make Frost Tiger
freeze one of the platforms. Go under the platform, then he will also come down. Use Mach
Speed and punch one of the pillars that are under the platform until you catch Mach Speed
Fire. Then, let Frost Tiger come to you (or vice versa) and punch him. His aura will go
away and he will jump to the nearest pillar. If the pillar that he is on is unfrozen, he
will freeze the platform. I you are in front of him, he will start attacking you. Use Slo
Mo to see his skull, because his attacks are very fast. Keep dodging his Skull symbols
until he starts spinning, then use Red Dragon Kick (Red Hot Kick and Zoom In). He will
try to get his aura back. While he is getting that, use Red Dragon Kick again. Keep doing
this until he is defeated.

To defeat Dr. Cranken easily, use Sylvia. It is possible to defeat him in the first part
with Joe, but it is much easier to use Sylvia for the entire battle. Cranken has three
main attacks. He will sprout three tentacle things from his back, and they will have one
of three things on them: drills, magnets, or buzz-saws. They will also appear in that
order. Drills will stab at you, magnets will pull drills from the ceiling to fall on you,
and buzz-saws sweep across the floor and up in the air to hit you. On one of the tentacles
will be a yellow ball. This is your target. Go Slow Mo and shoot it with Sylvia (or punch
with Joe). After four hits, the tentacles and Cranken's shield will break. Use this
chance to run up with Sylvia, go Slow Mo, then activate Replay, Zoom In, and Spin Kick
all at once. You can get about three of those in. Repeat this quite a few times. When he
gets to two life bars, he starts to glow red. He will use his magnets to pull down about
four of the six pieces of ceiling, raises a column forcing you jump over it, and makes
avoiding the ceiling difficult. He will also call out three of the flying probes. After a
few of those, he will pull out a drill/buzz-saw mix. Repeat what was doenbefore and hit
the ball. After you take out his life bar, his body will explode and you will fight his
head. You will have to use Sylvia for this. He will be shooting drills, and balls with be
around his head. Hit the one that is glowing. Once you hit it, it will start moving around
his head. Use Slow Mo and shoot. When his shield disappears, do your
Slow/Zoom/Replay/Kick. Keep pressing Kick and you will kill him easily, because his
defense is nothing in that form.

In Reel 4, there are three torch stands that need to be lit towards the end of Scene 1. To
do this, you must flare up as Joe using Mach Speed then switch to Sylvia. By switching,
you will transfer the fire to Sylvia. Activate Replay and attack with something that will
activate the Replay action. There is another set of six not too far from there. You must
flare up as Joe, switch, and Replay/Zoom/Spin Kick to light them.

Not only are Fire Leo (one of the Bosses from the original Viewtiful Joe) and Frost Tiger
brothers and look alike, but they fight exactly the same except that Fire Leo goes in
lava to get his aura back, while Frost Tiger grows his aura.

Successfully complete the game to unlock the "Reel Select" option for that and lower
difficulty settings.
