Punisher, The Cheats (Xbox)

Create a new profile and enter "WOODCHIPPER" as a case-sensitive name to unlock the
90's Punisher costume.

To achieve a high score, grab a human shield and use him. Shoot some enemies and try not
to get hit. The longer you go without getting hit, the higher your points get. However,
if you somehow get hit your points are rounded up and you must start again with not
getting hit.

Go to any laptop during game play and look directly at the screen. The figure of the Hulk
will appear, flexing.

You can use interrogations on enemies to help reveal secret rooms, flashbacks,
locations where you can find weaponry, and other information. If the enemy's voice
echoes, you have unlocked a flashback. To interrogate an enemy, run up to him and press A
(grab). Then press A(2) to perform an interrogation from punch, face smash, choke, gun
tension. For a general interrogation gun tension must be used with small firearms like
the .45 pistols and submachine guns. Special Interrogations must be found by grabbing a
human shield and taking him to a white skull zone. You can always practice general
interrogation or special ones. If performing interrogations are too difficult, try the
following tips:



Press Y to display a help screen with the special interrogations.

Turn on the subtitles to read what they say once interrogated. To do this, go to
"Options" on the apartment menu and choose "Closed Caption".

The bar at the bottom is their stress level status. Get them in the orange zone at the
numbers should count down from 3 seconds. If it reaches zero, you have broken the
criminal.

Always weaken your enemies to stress them easier, but make sure they have plenty of
life. The bar at the top is their health status.

Try not to kill the enemy you are interrogating. It's an interrogation because style
points will be lost if you get too aggressive.

If you see enemies with a white skull above their head, it indicates you need that
person. He may have information on how to unlock an armory.

The orange bar will keep getting smaller as you progress throughout the harder levels,
making it a more challenging interrogation.

To interrogate harder enemies you may need to weaken them slightly. Use the Left
Analog-stick and the directions to control the interrogation.

At the end of the level, just before you destroy the helicopter and after all the enemies
on the ground are dead, stand just outside the last door (when leaving the building stay
to the right, but turn back towards the door). An enemy keeps respawning, and he comes
out the same way every time. Grab him as soon as he comes out and take him back inside to
interrogate, then kill him. Go back outside and wait to do it all over again. If done
correctly, the helicopter will not hit you, and you can really rack up the point
multiplier. Use all the different interrogations you can and alternate quick kills with
knock outs (Y), to boost the multiplier. You can get up to 450,000 points to spend on
character upgrades by doing this about one hour.

Interrogate enemies normally. If their words echoes, this indicates that you have unlocked
a flashback. Replay the levels to unlock more of them.

The first guard you encounter in Ryker's will be held up by a prisoner. The prisoner
refers to him by the name "Dixon". He is named after Chuck Dixon, a writer for the
Punisher comics, Daredevil comics, and Marvel Knights comics.

During the intermission sequence immediately after the Crackhouse level, look closely at
the license plate of the car that tries to hit Frank. Notice that it reads "ASM129". The
Punisher first made his appearance in "Amazing Spider Man issue #129".

If you get close enough (just slightly further than the Quick Kill/Grab point) an enemy
will sometimes (especially in the earlier levels) back off, wave his hands as if to say
"don't shoot" then say similar to "It-- it's you!!!!"; giving you time to shoot him.
Also, sometimes by performing a quick kill near another enemy, sometimes they will put a
hand over their mouth as though they are about to vomit, and say something similar to "I
think I'm gonna be sick!" or "Oh my God!" followed by a vomiting sound. This also gives
you some extra time to shoot the enemy. Note: This does not work on all Yakuza
gang members.

When you get off of the gondola, take a right into the shed. Do not go to the launch pad
yet. Get the ammunition for the sniper rifle. Leave the shed and make a right to the
steps to the missile launch pad. Walk up the steps and the Russian will say "We have to
stop meeting like this, Big Boy!". He will stay on the catwalk above, throwing flaming
barrels at you. Shooting him is useless. Watch the Russian through your more precise
aiming (it is easier this way). When he lifts a barrel, he will walk a little way, lift
it above his head, and it will catch fire. Shoot the barrel while it is on fire before he
throws it at you. It will explode in his face. After two or three explosions, guards will
begin to appear from the right and left sides of the map. Take them out if they give you
a problem, however try to focus on the Russian. After the Russian's life gets half-way
down, an intermission sequence featuring him catching ablaze will play. He will then jump
down and chase after you. Get him to chase you into the piles of barrels scattered in the
corners of the map. There is one barrel in each pile that will light (usually the
brightest one). Get the Russian to walk into the barrel and it will ignite. Then, shoot
the barrel to blow it up on the Russian. Be careful not to get too close or you will
sustain damage. After about four to five explosions, he will be defeated. Note: If the
Russian runs into a guard, the guard will also catch fire.

In the Funeral Home level, one of the Gnucci's tells you that you can get in a room by
tilting the statue in the bedroom. The statue is that of a polar bear. This is a tribute
to Garth Ennis' "Welcome Back, Frank" comic, because Ma Gnucci is mauled by a polar bear
in the zoo after Frank punches it in the face.

When you reach this part of the level, you may be compelled to take the sniper rifle to
your left. You can if desired, but it is not required. If you want to get out quick, run
to the middle rock near the edge (where the chopper is flying). You will find an
anti-tank launcher (rocket launcher) and what may be an unlimited ammo cache. Try to aim
for the man with the rocket launcher in the chopper (usually on the right). After you hit
him, keep firing missiles at the chopper. Make sure that you strafe (or at least keep
moving), as there are snipers in almost all directions around you.

At the beginning of the Stark Towers level when the Yakuza start their attack, the
scientists working behind the glass talk about an interdimensional portal, and one refers
to the other as Doctor Freeman. Gordon Freeman is the main character in the popular
Half-Life game series by Valve Software.

If you get hit once by your enemies, your style points will be on your score, and it would
not be good enough for a massive score. Always take your time. Do not rush into every room
because there is no time limit. If you are having difficulty shooting them, try aiming for
precise headshots to kill them instantly. Use interrogations first then do the quick kill
on them. Watch your back and keep an eye on enemy numbers. Be aware of where they are
going to attack from and defeat multiple enemies without getting hit. This is the easiest
way to achieve style points. Additionally, try the Golden Skulls special kills. White
Skulls are special interrogation zones. If a mission's medal score seems to difficult for
you on the stats screen, replay the level for another attempt. Use the Right Analog-stick
fine aim mode for headshots. Mix up the violence in this game to achieve style points.
Headshots is the best strategy to take down heavily armored opponents.

To defeat Bushwacker you must do two things. First, aim for his head and fire. Eventually,
his glasses will fall off. Once, his glasses are off it is a free for all as long as you
have some flashbangs. If you do not have flashbangs, then just kill some henchmen and
they will drop some. Begin launching flashbangs near Bushwacker and he will get
disoriented. When he starts moving around like he is drunk, start shooting him. He will
begin to fire his weapon, but most of the time he is inaccurate. He eventually will die
after enough damage is taken.

Jigsaw is quite possibly the easiest fight in the game (if played smart). First, take out
Jigsaw's jet pack. Simply walk over to a cargo crate. Make sure that you can see Jigsaw,
but he cannot see or hit you. If you wait, Jigsaw will come to you. When he gets close
enough, run under him. Then, just shoot his backpack and stay under Jigsaw. After a
little cat and mouse, an intermission sequence will play. Jigsaw is now on foot. Jigsaw's
way of defense are ten fast blasts and a large plasma ball. You will need to run in
between boxes to throw him off your path. Run around until you see a guard, then finish
him quick. The guard will drop a RAM explosive. These are used by walking up to a wall
and pressing Secondary Fire once (while RAM is selected). The charge is now armed and
ready for detonation. Get Jigsaw's attention by letting him see you. He will run after
you. When he gets near the RAM, press your Secondary Fire again (maintain safe distance)
and an explosion will blow off a piece of Jigsaw's armor. Repeat this procedure until
Jigsaw falls to your punishment. Additionally, when you are fighting Jigsaw, get under
him when he is in the air and shoot his jetpack. When he turns around, get behind him and
shoot him again. Plant mines on the ground and detonate them when he walks by to finish
him.

In Fisk Industries, when you interrogate the man to ask how to stop the turrets, he tells
you the access code is "217". That is the area code for Champaign, IL, where the game was
developed.

Create a new profile and enter "V PIRATE" as a case-sensitive name, including
the space. All missions, challenge modes, punishment modes, armory, war journal stuff,
comic covers, concept art, flashbacks, movies, skins, and cheats will be unlocked.
Note: Style points will not be awarded while this code is enabled. Alternately,
get a gold medal rank on the indicated level to unlock the corresponding cheat in an
apartment sub-menu. Note: You cannot progress in the game if any cheats are
enabled.



Crazy Deaths: Lucky's Bar

Gun Splitters: Crack House

Infinite Ammo: Pier 74 Revisited

Invulnerability: All levels

No Reload: Stark Towers

One Shot, One Kill: Ryker's Island

Infinite Slaughter Mode: Takagi Building

If you choose to side with the Mafia at the slaughterhouse, when you get to a certain
point you will hear two men. One will say "Damn they killed Ernie!" The other will say,
"First Bert, now Ernie. We'll get those bastards." Bert and Ernie are the names of
Sesame Street characters.

Allow the game to remain idle at the "Press Start" screen for about twenty seconds to view
an alternate opening with different dialogue and scenes.

When you grab enemies with skulls over their heads, you can get information from them. In
order to do special kills, you must walk over to a purple skull shining out of the ground
with the enemy. To do this, you must grab him and take him over to the purple skull. Then,
use his own method.

In the Takagi Building, after you interrogate a member of the Eternal Sun he runs into the
bathroom to distract Yasuke. He then asks Yasuke who would win in a fight between Captain
America and Captain Japan. Yasuke says that there is no Captain Japan, that his name is
Sunfire, and that Sunfire would probably win. Captain America is from the Captain
America/Avengers comics and Sunfire is from the X-Men comics.

Successfully complete challenge and punishment modes to unlock all comic covers.

For this Challenge mode to be completed, you must kill 39 of Fisk's men, not including
Bullseye, without reloading or picking up another weapon. After fighting Bullseye and
after he jumps down to the next level, point your weapon upwards towards on a hole in the
ceiling and shoot at the boxes. The boxes will fall down and a hidden guard will appear.
He will not make himself known unless this is done. If you made it to the end of the
Challenge and notice that only one guard is missing, this is where he will be.

When in Lucky's bar, two men will be talking. One asks "Who do you think would win in a
fight between Daredevil and Sonny Corleone?" The other one will say, "You idiot.
Daredevil's a comic book character." Daredevil comics were made by the same company that
made The Punisher comics. The irony is that later The Punisher's lawyer is Matt Murdoch
(the real life identity of Daredevil). Also, later two Yakuza will be talking about
Daredevil talking on one hundred of their men hopped up on some drugs. Additionally,
after the battle with Bullseye, Frank's blind lawyer Matt Murdock (Daredevil's alter ego)
comes in and Frank fires him.

Instead of pressing A to perform the action, keep switching between weapons to
automatically reload them. Additionally, press A to reload your gun then press Black in
any direction to perform another special tactical reload. Both tactical reloads will work
as long as you do not do it in the middle of combat. Try using it for weapons that take a
long time to reload, such as the M60 hell on earth machine guns.

Get at least a bronze medal rank on each level to unlock concept art.

When in KingPin's office, throw grenades at him. Do not try to shoot him unless you aim
for the head; bullets do not hurt him. Just keep throwing grenades until he dies.
Additionally, in the Fisks Industries level, you must fight someone called Bullseye.
Bullseye is a hired bodyguard for the Kingpin. He is called that because he is always
100\% when using weapons, even with a firearm. You cannot hit him on the body. He wears
advanced armor that cannot be penetrated. His only weakness is his head. Just shoot him
there. Do not stand there for more grenades to appear to throw or for use with the
assault rifle's grenade launcher. Once Bullseye is defeated in stage 1, he will run to
the elevator and disappear. In stage 2, you should be in a room with a nail gun
interrogation and a lot of boarded up beams. Stage 2 will commence once he says "Hey
Frank, about time you got here". Use the same strategy as before. Always aim for his
head. Once his life is reduced to a certain point, you can move on. Eventually you should
finally encounter him in Kingpin's office. Do the same thing here. Once he has no
remaining energy, you have defeated him.

When you reach the funeral home level, do not jump up and just shoot everyone. If you get
out of the casket and do a quick kill on everyone in the room, you will earn a lot more
points. You should keep one of them alive to use as a human shield. None of them have
guns in that room.

When the chopper first starts shooting at you, Iron Man flies in to give you a quick heads
up. He then flies around the corner of the building.
