Enter The Matrix

Opponents such as Agents, Seraph or Smith have a high rate of reversal/counter which can deal large damage. On a high level, this makes offense not the most suitable option, as the more you attack, the greater the window of opportunity for your opponent to counter/reverse. Anticipate a punch or kick, and before it commences you must fully Focus. Take note of the opponent's stance, keeping a view of their hands and feet while still Focused. The precise moment you see the opponent begin to move their hands or feet to strike, press Action for a guaranteed reversal. The amount of damage dealt to the opponent here can be rewarding, as reversals are the most time sensitive and must be executed precisely during combat -- a misplaced reversal attempt can leave you vulnerable.

While playing the level as either Niobe or Ghost, you will pass under many bridges. A few minutes from the start of the level, you will pass under a particular bridge that appears to have a fire blazing on top of it. This is a reference to The Matrix Reloaded, when Morpheus sabotaged the vehicle the Twins were driving in, while on top of that very bridge. What you see in the game is the remaining aftermath.

Allow the game to idle at the main menu. It will eventually play the preview trailer that was used to promote the game through the website.

Once you have saved, you can select the Hacking option and begin to work on hacking into The Matrix itself. As the Matrix is quite simply a simulation, its rules are no different to a computer systems. This allows you to not only access all stored files, but you can change the physical laws of the system (as mentioned in the "cheat" descriptions). Laws like gravity can be bent, for a greater time/effect than the limited focusing alone. To take advantage of the Hack System's abilities, you will need to know exactly what to enter following the command prompt (default A Drive standard (A:\)): Enter DIR to display directory choices. You can simply type .EXE then press Enter. The executable will be opened. It is not the same with .TXT files, as you must type READ first before the text file selection is revealed in Command List. Simply type DIR then a space followed by B:\ for the contents of the B Drive to be revealed for selection, rather than typing individual filenames. After experiencing the rabbit hole for yourself, the "CHEAT.EXE" is invaluable for those with free minds looking to further enhance skills, and bend the rules of The Matrix. After opening the executable, you will be required to enter specific codes, which will directly alter rules of The Matrix, making it easier for you to utilize your ability to focus the mind, and other aspects. Use it wisely.

For an easy way to unlock cheat mode, at title screen select "Hack". Press any key when instructed. Once the system has loaded, type DIR. You will eventually see various choices. One of these choices will be "TOOLS". Instead of typing it in, go all the way to the left where your options are "HELP and DIR". Click "DIR", then you will see the same choices on the screen above. Click on "TOOLS". From there you will see more choices "CHEAT.EXE" and so on. Click "CHEAT.EXE" and enter in any the codes.

Also, you do not have to enter "Yes" or "No" for command confirmations. You can simply type Y or N to save time.

At the point where you find a grenade launcher after the telephone gets destroyed, find a cliff where you will get killed if you fall off. Lead an Agent to the cliff. Stand with your back to the cliff. Once the agent is at arms length away, Matrix jump over his head and run a short distance away. Then, turn around and take out the grenade launcher. Aim at his feet and try to blow him off the cliff, which saves ammunition. You can also try kicking him off.

When playing as Ghost, and you get to the end of the level (at the drawbridge) in time to see the bridge go down, look forward. You should see a taxi ramp off the bridge before it lowers all the way.

On the Hard Line Pursuit level in Chinatown, if you have the "Unlimited Ammo", "Unlimited Health", and "Maximum Fire Power" cheats enabled, you will start with the Grenade Launcher. If you hit a Mr. Smith with three direct Grenade Launcher shots, he will die. You can then get his gun, which is the best pistol in the game, if you do not already have one with the "Maximum Firepower" cheat. Once you have played the Hard Line Pursuit level, continue through the last two Chinatown levels so you can use the Launcher during them. The last level on Chinatown is the best for hunting Smiths, because there are so many of them. Also try enabling the "Invisibility" cheat so that the Smiths will not annoy you while you are trying to kill them.

As Niobe, the Agent will start to chase you. The big tank of "Dangerous Gas" you run past can be shot. When the Agent passes it, shoot it. It will explode, and kill the Agent. Note: You may want to enable the "Invisible to enemies" and "Unlimited health" codes.

Play as Niobie and you will start in a room where there is an Agent shooting at you. Ignore the "Don't fight, run'' message. Instead, take out your MPS gun (you can use a pistol). Shoot him and he will dodge the bullets. Get him to dodge all the way to the left or right. At that time, shoot the explosive barrel. It will kill him, and you may pick up his gun.

As Niobe, when Sparks says run, do not fight him (turn on Focus). Run between the two missiles and turn around, then shoot the bio hazard sign. The Agent should fall and lose his gun. Note: Use the shotgun.

After you find tunnel 7R, An agent will chase you. There is a very easy way to kill him. Every so often there will be a tower lit by red lights. On this there are four boxes labeled "Danger: Explosive!". Lure the Agent near one of those boxes, step back, and while in Focus mode, shoot the box in first person mode. This should instantly kill him, and you can take his Desert Eagle.

Do not shoot the gas can in this level. When near it, the can will explode. Metal will fly and kill you, even if codes are enabled.

Press Up + Jump without focus, then immediately press L to activate focus. You will jump consistently longer.
